President Biden was jeered by dozens of protesters on Friday as he visited East Palestine, Ohio more than a year after the disastrous train derailment — as concerns mount over the long-term health and environmental effects on the community.

Dozens of area residents lined a commercial strip in the town with signs that said “Too Little Too Late,” “Dementia Joe You Gotta Go” and “Go home, Sleepy Joe!”

A pool reporter traveling in the motorcade noted that one angry protester “was giving the middle finger” while several more were “giving the thumbs down.”...

The president’s election-year visit to East Palestine, which is about an hour west of Pittsburgh, finally occurred as detractors blasted him for keeping his distance from a community that had little perceptible political value to him.

There were even chants of "Let's Go Brandon".

"Let's Go Brandon, I agree" responded Biden.

He thought this was an UNRWA zone, and proposed granting it recognition as the Palestinian state.

Why should he bother? No one believes he is even slightly sincere in his cynical attentions, while nothing will come of it in regards to improvement or reform of the problems that caused the disaster. Biden himself is the disaster.

He mumbled a lot, said something nobody understood and then left.

He felt at home until he realized it was a “train” derailment and not a “brain” derailment site.
