GOP's Cawthorn calls Biden 'geriatric despot' on House floor

Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) called President Biden an "inept, geriatric despot" in a speech on the House floor Wednesday while criticizing the U.S. deployment of 3,000 troops to aid Eastern European allies as tensions heat up between Russia and Ukraine.

"Madam Speaker, the sons and daughters of America are not foot soldiers for your party's inept, geriatric despot. They are not expendable pawns to be dispatched at the whims of an idiot, tossed carelessly around the world to Godforsaken caves and bloody sandboxes. They are Americans, worthy of honor and dignity. The only salute from them Joe Biden deserves involves one finger," said the 26-year-old first-term lawmaker.

Cawthorn is not the first conservative pundit to use the word "geriatric" to describe Biden or accuse him of autocratic rule. Senate hopeful J.D. Vance, an Ohio Republican, previously tweeted in September that "Joe Biden is a geriatric tyrant" when criticizing the president's COVID-19 plans.

Cawthorn went on to accuse Biden of using U.S. troops to feed the military industrial complex.

"Our greatness is forged in our resistance to interference. The war lobby has no ally in the America-first Republicans. We will preserve our strength through nationalism," he said.

Biden, 79, has faced questions about his age since beginning his campaign for president. Asked in September 2019 about "concerns" regarding his age and health, Biden responded to a reporter: "What the hell concerns? You wanna wrestle?"

And despite his age, Biden has insisted that he intends to run for reelection in 2024. .

Did you all see the Fox Spot yesterday of his wife Jill leading him away from the podium? The poor bastard could hardly walk and if Jill didn’t have him by the hand, he probably would have fallen down. I don’t think he will make it through his term, but the scary part is what comes next if he doesn’t.

Not smart. Hawthorne is putting to risk the sympathy element women have for his good looks and tragic handicap-suburban housewives. He should let the Gaetz/MTG’s out there deal with dirty the politics.

I like it! Geriatric despot.

I'd only add demented to the description for accuracy.

“Madam Speaker” never heard a word of this, and wouldn’t care if she did.

True - because “Madam Speaker” is another geriatric despot...

It is fascinating that this seems to have largely escaped the reporting by MSM. ??

Did Nancy threaten to sanction the offender? Have him removed? Did the Secret Service take up after him, when he left the house chamber?

At least Hairass knows what day it is. She might also havean eye to her legacy and actually try. At least we’d know who really is in charge. Orwell wrote, “There is always a worse to every bad.” Worse worse be PIAPS, Hairass would not be as bad. Especially as you’d see a RINO as veep.

Dumb as a rock is better than senile. And with Lujain out due to stroke the Republicans control the Senate. Hairass cannot vote for her replacement. On a vote of 50 to 49 the Republicans install Romney as Veep as a “National Unity Candidate”

Then impeach Hairass. Romney chooses a VP 50-49 Cruz becomes Veep.

We had a good run, though, didn't we? Read Sir John Glubb's "The Fate Of Empires" for the 10K foot view of what is happening.

Sociopathic Tyrants are often sadist at their core

I believe she enjoys the tormented wailings of resistance to her evil acts.

Not inept, just taking marching orders from the globalists. Let’s just establish that once and for all.
