I’m surprised he didn’t fall on his head and go into a head stand like those toys with the weighted heads. I’m sure Joe told the pro players what a good rear end he was. He is a legend in his own warped mind. Hit the showers Joe but you can’t take your teenage daughter in there with you.

Biden then mistook the Chief’s helmet for his bedpan.
