President-elect Donald Trump takes up all the oxygen in the room, and President Joe Biden in the waning weeks and days of his term is starving for oxygen and relevance.
The besotted Biden can’t compete with Trump’s parade of chaotic and clownish cabinet nominees and the buffoonish billionaire grabs all the spotlight from every media outlet. Time Magazine’s Person of the Year might as well move into the White House already, and the forgotten man might as well move into a geriatric hospital.
Biden may not be gone yet, but he’s already forgotten, a much-reduced figurehead, a husk of his former self, a wisp of a man reduced by dementia and old age to a pathetic figure.
Biden’s arrogance and pride accelerated his downfall, if he has only kept his implicit promise that he would be a transitional figure and not run for reelection the fascist Trump would not have returned to power.
If Biden had only kept his explicit promise that he would not pardon his degenerate son who was justly convicted of tax and gun offenses brought by his own Justice Department, the last days of his administration would not be marked by pessimism, regret and frustration.
The last chapter of Biden’s public career will be to attend the inauguration of a despot who will reverse all the accomplishments of his administration and destroy all the underpinnings of our democracy.
Goodbye Joe Biden, you are forgotten by your contemporaries and history will remember you as an abject failure.
