Joe Biden is (currently) President of the United States

wow that guy is the President!

he sure is. but not according to the protesters at his thing this afternoon, I guess

he can fly a helicopter and a plane, busy guy

they won't let him drive his Corvette anymore, they took away the keys

he can still drive it in his mind

For at least the fourth time, Biden told a vivid story this week about a conversation with an old Amtrak friend who had actually been dead for more than a year at the earliest time such a conversation could've possibly happened.

At least he didn't claim to have liberated the camps (yet).

He has repeatedly claimed to have been arrested trying to meet Nelson Mandela tbf

finally! Dems have a Reagan! Now if he only he could notch those 1981 legislative successes.

Did he say Mandela or did he say "that fella from the island"?

that fella from Mandela

can't you rhyme?

Jack Mandela

I have to admit the Let’s Go Brandon thing makes me chuckle

now this is the kind of political crisis I've been craving

White House pool report says Biden will stay in the vacation home of David Rubenstein, co-founder of the Carlyle Group, in Nantucket

— Jeff Stein (@JStein_WaPo) November 23, 2021

There once was a home in Nantucket

where the president stayed and I said, "Fuck it."

when he called for a vote

they thought he said scrote

Then he suddenly kicked the bucket?

Where the president felt a bit yuck, it
Felt a right undie-filler
But he noticed camilla
So he lifted his arse cheek and snuck it

So let me get this straight. Hunters laptop did reveal him trading on his name…But he did so to help his friend Tucker Carlson? You couldn’t make it up.

I tried to figure out the story behind that tweet, and it all seems so stupid, convoluted, and childish that I can't muster the effort (same with QAnon).

laptops you just don't care about

thanks joe https://t.co/bBz2uUiV1f

shout-out to the big guy at his vaccine press conference just now, asking us to have empathy for working-class families struggling on a household income of $120,000pa.

The wording here made me laugh:

https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/21/politics/biden-trump-covid-vaccine-booster/index.html

"...just the other day former President Trump announced he had gotten his booster shot. It may be one of the few things he and I agree on."

We agree that he got his booster shot.

Joe Biden, 15/10/2020:

We're eight months into this pandemic, and Donald Trump still doesn't have a plan to get this virus under control.

I do.

Joe Biden, 22/12/21:

"Nothing's been good enough. I don't think it's a failure. I think it's -- you could argue that we should have known a year ago, six months ago, two months ago, a month ago. ... I wish I had thought about ordering half a million (tests) two months ago, before Covid hit here."

Joe Biden, 27/12/21:

"There is no federal solution, this gets solved at state level ... and that ultimately gets down to where the rubber meets the road, and that's where the patient is in need of help -- or preventing the need for help. My message to the governors is simple: if you need something, say something."

Biden was scheduled to depart later in the afternoon for a holiday stay at his vacation home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware

Has he considered an executive order to make COVID illegal? That would put us in line with the rest of the world, which has definitely curtailed COVID.

Based on the structure of federal power to compel states under existing law and the refusal of many states to accept or follow federal guidance, Biden's probably correct in stating that "there is no federal solution" apart from imposing a state of emergency/martial law and calling out US armed forces to enforce it. In the current poisoned political atmosphere that would not 'solve' covid so much as spark off more armed insurrection and bloodshed and come that much closer to destroying whatever comity still exists in the USA.

Was that his plan?

if a majority of governors neither follow nor cooperate with his plans, but instead do whatever they damn well please, and a large number of people who live in states that have cooperative governors also refuse to comply, then how much does it matter what his plan is?

Why bother saying you have a plan, then?

if you're really so interested in getting to the bottom of what his plan was, I bet the details of his plan were made public during the 2020 campaign, probably as a white paper posted on his web site. chances are good you could unearth those details with a bit of research. we all know the web is a great resource for doing research. then you can judge whether it was a good plan or not and how much he was able to do, how much he failed to do and how much of his failure was due to circumstances outside his control.

or you could just do what you always do.

I read it in October 2020 - is that what I always do?

(may have been November - I welcome the rigorous fact-checking that you endorse above)

He only said he had a plan. It’s like having an exercise machine—doesn’t mean you do anything with it.

Maybe the spread of the new variants caught the administration off guard
