“A US Department of Justice report on Thursday cast Joe Biden as a ‘well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory’ in a damaging portrayal of the president even as he was spared from criminal charges following a months-long probe.

Special Counsel Robert Hur oversaw the DOJ’s investigation into Joe Biden’s handling (mishandling) of classified materials found at his private residences and offices and famously in a box behind his classic Corvette.

After a months-long investigation, he concluded that Biden, 81, had “willfully retained and disclosed” sensitive documents but he did not file criminal charges as a result.

Why was Biden spared from criminal charges when the special counsel concluded that he had willfully retained and shared the sensitive material with his ghostwriter, among other individuals?

Hur perceived Biden as a ‘well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory’ who would be viewed sympathetically by a jury. Basically, he’s saying that a jury would feel sorry for him and not convict him even if he showed up for his trial with classified materials shoved up his ass. The jury would correctly deduce that Biden doesn’t know his rectum from a locked file cabinet and they would find him not guilty of all charges. I guess a friendly elderly man who is as brain-addled as Mr. Magoo can get away with murder. (As long as he isn’t black or brown.)

Biden may be breathing a sigh of relief, but most Americans are terrified that a hopelessly senile old man will probably be reelected. Biden has no business getting behind the wheel of a Corvette and he has no business running for reelection.
