As William Shakespeare wrote in As You Like It, “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women only players.”  That observation clearly applies to our current political situation.  As this is written, it’s become nearly certain that Joe Biden will be removed from the ticket.  That’s because word has come down from the true authority that’s in control of the Democrat Party – Hollywood.

After the June 27 debate, actor George Clooney, with the approval of Il Duce Obama, had a letter published in The New York Times, calling for Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden to be removed from the presidential ticket.

Clooney is a big fundraiser for the Democrat party.  About two weeks before last month’s debate, Clooney co-hosted a Los Angeles fundraiser for the Biden campaign that raised $30 million — breaking the record for the Democratic Party’s largest fundraising event.

But after wringing $30 million from a group of ignorant leftist A-holes such as himself, Clooney decided we need a new nominee, because the president he saw at a fundraiser in June “was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.”

After professing his love for Joe Biden, Clooney admitted that the Biden he was with last month was not the Joe Biden of 2010 or “even the Joe Biden of 2020.” Clooney further admitted that, faced with the prospect of a second  Trump presidency, the Democrat party has “opted to ignore every warning sign.”  Clooney admonished, “our party leaders need to stop telling us that 51 million people didn’t see what we just saw,” at the debate.

Clooney explained that his sudden reversal was “about age. Nothing more.  But also nothing that can be reversed,”  adding, “We are not going to win in November with this president.”

As with every other lying phony leftist, Clooney pretended that Sleepy Joe’s mental condition was “new and upsetting information.”  Clooney wasn’t finished.  After hitting Biden with the shovel, he decided to bury his body, but in so doing, Clooney spilled the secret most thinking people already knew.  “This isn’t only my opinion; this is the opinion of every senator and congress member and governor that I’ve spoken with in private.  Every single one, irrespective of what he or she is saying publicly.  We can put our heads in the sand and pray for a miracle in November, or we can speak the truth[now that our lies have been exposed].

The letter immediately sparked what could be called the Hollywood Sidestep, with media talking head after talking head mouthing the same scripted line- “Biden should step aside.”

An even more repulsive Hollywood A-hole, “Meathead” Rob Reiner, was more blunt, writing that Clooney had “clearly expressed what many of us have been saying. … We need someone younger to fight back.  Joe Biden must step aside.”  Reiner warned, “It’s time to stop fucking around.”

The Clooney letter and its aftermath proved that the farce that has been the Biden presidency has been nothing more than a show, produced by deluded leftists, some of whom actually believe that it’s actors and so-called celebrities who know what’s best for America.

Clooney’s letter release was just another Hollywood production.  It was published at the behest of Producer-Director Il Duce Obama, who had final script approval.  George Clooney was the star of the show, chosen by the Producer as the actor who might convince Joe Biden that it’s time to go.  He was the perfect Hollywood choice for the job.  After all, Clooney played a president of the United States in a Spy Kids movie.  For Hollywood, that’s the only qualification necessary.  It put me in mind of the scene from Animal House, “You better listen to him, he’s pre-med.”

Joe Biden won’t listen to Clooney, though.  I can’t understand why not.  He must know that he’s really just the person they cast in 2020 to pretend to be the President.  Biden played his part well enough for a while, but he has become unpopular. He was chosen because he could beat Trump, and now that it appears he can’t perform that role, the role must be recast.   After all, in Showbiz, it’s all about the ratings.  When the box office turns against the actor, the actor is out.

I remembered something that 1940’s actress Mary Astor once wrote, which aptly summarizes the four stages of Hollywood casting: Who’s Mary Astor?  Get me Mary Astor!  Get me someone like Mary Astor.  Who’s Mary Astor?

That description applies to the situation of our current Chief Executive – 1988 – Who’s Joe Biden?  2020 – Get me Joe Biden!  2024 – Get me someone like Joe Biden.  2025 – Who’s Joe Biden.  Only Biden won’t leave willingly.

He insisted on holding a “Big Boy” news conference this week. The conference was filled with gaffes, including calling Ukranian President Zelensky “Putin;”  calling his vice-president “Trump;” and a reprise of Biden’s creepy whispering.

This was nothing new.  Before the debate the Left ignored gaffes from “good old Uncle Joe,” and denounced anyone who mentioned them.  It didn’t matter because it was all part of the show.  Biden was just playing his part.  Now they want to recast the part, so they seize on any gaffe.

The problem may be that Clooney’s word alone isn’t enough.  Maybe they need to enlist the help of other actors who have portrayed presidents.  Biden might listen to a media-type.  Steven Colbert played a president in Monsters vs. Aliens.  Maybe a business-type guy.  Mark Cuban played a president in a Sharknado movie.  Biden has claimed he grew up in black churches.  Morgan Freeman played presidents four times.  Maybe they can make use of the age issue.  Harrison Ford, 82, and Gene Hackman, 94, have both played presidents.

I’ve got it!  Jack Nicholson was the president in Mars Attacks!  He could relate to Biden, one dementia patient to another.   Better yet, let’s call in Martin Sheen.  He has all the bases covered, having portrayed fictional President Josiah Bartlet, real president JFK, and to check the insurrection box, Robert E. Lee.

Biden should be grateful that Obama and Clooney are trying to ease him out gracefully.  Clooney at least told Biden he loved him before plunging the knife into his back.  But maybe it was just a genre problem.  Perhaps, instead of a drama, Biden would prefer a musical.  Hollywood can take care of that, no problem.

Get me Patty Lupone and Mandy Patinkin, for a remake of Evita.  In that play and movie, there’s a song entitled, Goodbye and Thank You.  In it, Eva Peron and Che Guevara sing of Evita’s breakup with tango singer Augustin Magaldi, which permitted her to begin her love affair with Colonel Juan Peron.  The ballad they would sing to Joe Biden would go something like this –

Goodnight and thank you, Joe Biden
You’ve completed your task
What more could we ask of you now?
Please sign the book on your way out the door
That will be all
If we need you, we’ll call
But I don’t think that’s likely somehow

Oh, but it’s sad that when a love affair dies
The parting, the closing of doors
But we must be honest, stop fooling ourselves

Which means “Up yours!”

Cut!  Print it!  Better take Clooney’s advice Joe, or you’ll never work in this town again.

[Note – Events are moving so quickly that it’s hard to keep up.  As a result, mid-week updates may be necessary]

No, I’m not advocating the use of mass transit.  But I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of the bus under which the Democrats are preparing to throw their 2020 savior, Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden.  The worm, as they say, has turned.  Or, as Il Duce Obama’s pastor Jeremiah Wright once observed, “The chickens are coming home to roost!”

It’s looking more and more like the June 27th debate was a Democrat plan to trigger the removal of Biden from the 2024 ticket.  I’ve heard suggestions that the early debate was a stress test to permit Biden to allay concerns about his ability to continue.  I don’t buy it.  Biden’s handlers knew the shape he was in, and they purposely led him to the slaughter.  I would not be at all surprised if his medication was purposely altered or withheld to ensure his failure.

Why would a political Party do such a thing at this late date?  Necessity is the mother of conspiracy.  The Democrats have painted themselves into a corner, and desperate times call for desperate measures.

Whoever is really running the government (Obama) has decided that Old Joe isn’t up to the job and he must go.  Mind you, this conclusion wasn’t in any way motivated by the fact that Biden is senile, weak, crippled, and a threat to national security.  The motivation was more elemental.  If they can’t fool enough of the voters to get the pathetic wreck reelected, they will lose their power, and with it their ability to continue their planned destruction of the United States.

The debate was the signal to the media that it was time to expose Biden for what he is.  Calls for Biden to leave the race began immediately, and have spread to a number of elected Democrats.  You can be sure that the Dems have directed their media lapdogs to attack when The New York Times, the paper that buried the New York Post’s Hunter Biden laptop story, this week reprinted a Post story about a Parkinson’s disease specialist calling at the White House.

For his part, Biden is still in there pitching, but he’s hardly helping himself.  In a July Fourth appearance, he declared, “Ho, ho, ho, happy Independence Day.”  He later told a radio interviewer, from a station that had been supplied safe questions in advance, that he was proud to have been “the first black woman to serve with a black president.”

When George Stephanopolous asked him if he would take a cognitive test, Biden claimed that he takes one every day.  When asked if he would quit, Biden was adamant, “I’ll go if the Lord Almighty tells me to go.”  I guess it’s time to call in Il Duce Obama. I’ve heard some interesting insights from Dan Bongino, who as a Secret Service agent was on the White House detail.  Bongino advises to watch for signals from David Axelrod, James Clyburn, and Senator Mark Warner.  For Biden, the signals from those three have been anything but positive.

Axelrod, who is for all intents and purposes the public voice of Il Duce Obama, starting questioning Biden’s ability to continue on the night of the debate.  Bad news for Biden.

Mark Warner, who Bongino asserts is in the pocket of the Intelligence community, is actively trying to gather a group of Senators to go to Biden and convince him to quit.  So far, Biden is resistant.  In an interview with Joe Scarborough, Biden dared rivals to “Run against me.”  If the intelligence crowd wants him out and he doesn’t relent, well, accidents sometimes happen.

Clyburn, the South Carolina Congressman who’s influence with black voters made Biden the 2020 nominee, after he had lost in Iowa and New Hampshire, has suggested a “mini-primary” that would permit other candidates to run for the nomination before the August convention.

But Democrats have a problem.  After the 1968 Democrat Convention fiasco in Chicago, they changed the rules to ensure that the delegates would all be in place before the convention, to avoid late challenges at the convention.  Biden has all the delegates in his pocket.  But faced with Biden’s now public mental and physical deficits, Clyburn wants to change the rules a month before the convention.

An additional problem is, even if Biden is dislodged, the usual suspects on the list to succeed him are no more popular than he.  The leading suspect, Kamala Harris, is less popular than Biden, but she is the frontrunner in the race to replace Old Joe.

Passing over a black female to nominate someone else would spark a war within the Democrat Party.  Clyburn says he’s supporting Kamala.  Case closed.  Campaign funding also comes into play.   If Biden is removed before he’s officially nominated, he can’t give the $220 million donated to the Biden-Harris campaign to another candidate.

As this is written, Democrats are having closed-door meetings to discuss what to do with Joe.  They have a dilemma.  If they agree Biden is too impaired to run for president, that means he’s too impaired to be president right now.  But he won’t leave, and they’re not prepared to invoke the 25th Amendment.  I suppose they can go back to Plan A – just keep lying.

Pardon my glee at the prospect of Leftist A-holes tearing one another apart in a vain attempt to put the right Progressive maniac on the ticket so they can stay in power.  There’s not yet unanimity on the Left to throw Joe out.  Once again, the calculus isn’t that Biden is mentally competent and deserving of reelection.  It’s that he may be the only one they’ve got who can beat that epitome of evil, Donald Trump.

Witness the wisdom of that eminent political commentator, Whoopi Goldberg. “I don’t care if he’s pooped his pants.  I don’t care if he can’t put a sentence together.  Show me he can’t do the job, and then I’ll say, maybe it’s time to go.”  Clearly Whoopi has low expectations for Biden’s job description.  I’ll translate.  As long as Biden is capable of continuing to pretend to be president, she’s okay with him.

MSNBC commentator (or is it Commisar) Ali Velshi echoed the Whoopi line.  Velshi said that, whether or not Biden is mentally incompetent is “almost irrelevant” because, “the election is between any Democratic nominee and the downfall of American democracy.” “Today, our great American experiment is at risk of collapse.  Rid yourself of the notion that this is simply a race between two parties.  This is a fight to preserve our hard fought freedoms.  We have two candidates. One stands for democracy and one doesn’t.  That’s the beginning and the end of the realization that voters need to have.”

For the crazy bastards at MSNBC, if a majority of voters choose to elect Donald Trump, that’s not “democracy.”  You see, according to the the know-it-all Left, anyone who votes for Trump is too stupid to understand that he’s an existential threat.  And a threat Trump surely is.  He’s a threat to continued anarchy, lawlessness, and the Left’s plan to crash our system and replace it with a new Socialist Worker’s Paradise.

So stay tuned, I can hear the bus approaching.  It won’t be long now.

When I watched last Thursday’s presidential “debate,” it was obvious to me that Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden exhibited a tenuous grip on reality.  He looked lost, he  rambled, he frequently descended into word salad, and several times, he made statements that were, at best, non sequiturs, and at worst, simply preposterous.

It can’t say that I was surprised.  On the rare occasions when Biden appears in public, he often mutters, stutters, and makes little sense.  So sure, as I watched, I concluded that Biden wasn’t doing well, in a “debate” that he had asked for, and under the rules that he had set.

What did surprise me however, was the reaction of the lap dog media that’s been propping up Biden throughout his presidency.  When the show ended, I began to hear disturbing reports that all was not well in Democrat land.  This caused me to do something I almost never do.  I put on CNN to hear the post-debate analysis of its all-leftist panel of Democrat apologists.

I expected to hear what we normally get from that crowd; a dutiful positive review of Biden, accompanied by a scathing denunciation of all things Trump.  That’s not what we got.

The CNN rogues gallery of leftists was in a panic.  They said Biden was “hoarse and sometimes unintelligible.”  Van Jones, after professing his love for Joe Biden, said, “That was painful,” and that Democrats “need to find a different way forward.”  Chris Wallace opined that Biden is not capable of doing any better than he did.  One of the panelists offered the opinion that subjecting Biden to the ordeal was elder abuse, asking, “What if that was your father up there?”  He had a point.  If this was a fight they would have stopped it.  Il Duce Obama veteran David Axelrod said, “There is a sense of shock.”

On the even more radical MSNBC, the outlook was no rosier.  Joy Reid reported getting texts complaining that Biden appeared feeble and weak.  She added that Democrats were “approaching panic.”  Nicolle Wallace said “there have to be conversations” about replacing Biden, adding that the convention rules were “being circulated.”  Obama campaign manager David Plouffe announced that, “It’s kind of a DEFCON 1 moment.”

I was struck by the Axelrod take on the event.  There was a sense of shock?  It put me in mind of the scene in Casablanca, where, as the police chief is being handed his gambling winnings, he tells Rick, “I’m shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here.”

Honestly, what did these people think?  How many times on these pages have I said that Joe Biden lies, and the media swears that whatever he said is true?  The media panelists were shocked to see the condition of Joe Biden?  I hardly think so.  They have permitted his handlers to hide him from the public for the last 3-plus years.  And they have dealt with his rare, and embarrassing, public appearances by simply ignoring them, or by parroting the White House lie of the day.  If there was any shock among the lapdogs, it was the inescapable fact that the jig is up, and they can’t continue to lie and be believed by the Democrat rank and file.

The panicked texts that they were getting weren’t from fellow “journalists.”  They were coming from friends who are loyal Democrat voters who are finally realizing that everything they’ve been told about Joe Biden has been a tissue of lies.  Keep in mind that the perhaps 25% of voters who will vote Democrat no matter who or what is on the ticket, accept the leftist spin no matter how improbable or downright preposterous it may be.

When a liberal commentator standing in front of a burning building told them that a leftist riot was “mostly peaceful'” they believed it.  When they were told that Hunter’s laptop isn’t really Hunter’s, but is instead a Russian intelligence operation they believed it.  So when White House spokes-liars and their media assistants hid Biden from the public, and then swore that he was “sharp as a tack,” on top of every issue, and that the video evidence of Biden’s decrepitude was a MAGA “deep fake” operation, they believed that crap too.

These are the people who rely on whatever they’re told by the media.  The media obliged by feeding them lies that they wanted to believe.  These fools got high off their own stash.  It’s good that they’re finally shocked,  because on Thursday, they were forced to confront the truth.  Joe Biden is a physical wreck with mental deficits so acute that he shouldn’t be in charge of an ice cream shop, much less the United States of America.

The sad fact of the matter is that the Left isn’t shocked that Joe Biden has dementia, can barely move, and that his weaknesses make him a threat to national security.  They’re perfectly willing to reelect him, knowing that he can’t do the job, because they expect whoever has been running the country to continue to do their Progressive bidding.

Apparently Joe Biden is the only one who didn’t know that he’s in the White House only because he was a useful idiot who would do the bidding of Democrats who needed to find someone to beat Donald Trump.  But Old Joe, although still an idiot, isn’t useful anymore.  They’re not shocked that he’s incompetent.  They’re shocked that he might not win.  The New York Times editorial board therefore has decreed that it’s time for Joe to go.  They’re prepared to select a different empty shell to pretend to be president.

The possibility that Democrats could lose their power is what’s causing all the shock.  They want someone new, but who?  As New York Post columnist Michael Goodwin has written, “The Trump haters will rally around a dead racoon if they think it will win the White House.”  If that’s the case, they should stick with Biden.

For Joe’s part, he says he’s not going anywhere.  Amidst the hue and cry to replace Old Joe at the convention, so far, both Bill Clinton and Il Duce Obama have expressed support for Biden’s continued candidacy.  That means one of two things.  They either have concluded that making a change at the convention can’t be accomplished without making matters worse, or they already know that they’re going to take Joe out, and are just putting him at ease.  I predicted that that long ago.

As for Donald Trump, he did enough to beat a near-dead opponent.  He followed the rules, and countered the Democrat argument that he’s a raving Nazi.  And he had a couple of devastating comebacks to Biden’s gibberish, like, “I don’t know what he just said, and I don’t think he knows either.”  That said, Trump had the perfect opportunity to explain why his policies will make America better, but he spent too much time beating an already dead horse.

All in all, this was a far cry from most debates, that end with the judgment that, “Neither candidate moved the needle.”  Stay tuned for what should be a fascinating next four months. Here’s hoping that the Democrat convention in Chicago is a replay of 1968.

The first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden is scheduled for Thursday June 27.  These thoughts are written earlier in the week, so I concentrated on the setting, the moderators and the participants, and have posted a day early.  So I present – FRANK ON THURSDAY

First of all, although they call it a debate, it’s not really a debate, at least not the type of presidential debate to which we have become accustomed.

No audience.  No questions from members of the public.  No opening statements from the candidates.   The two moderators will ask the questions, and the candidate’s mics will be shut off when the moderators decide that “time’s up.”  And most importantly, in a debate, the candidates normally oppose only one another. Not so in this charade, uh, “debate.”

The way this farce was designed, it wasn’t just Trump versus Biden, it was Trump versus Biden, and the two moderators, CNN’s Jake (as in Fake) Tapper and Dana Bash.  What we have here is a good old-fashioned Steel Cage Tag Team Death Match.

To continue the Biden Administration’s Deep Fake/Cheap Fake meme from last week, the “debate” features, in one corner, the Unfake candidate, former President Donald J. Trump, well rested from six weeks confinement in a freezing cold courtroom; and newly tanned, by training on massive rallies in Blue States.

In the other corner, we have Sleepy Joe Biden, a/k/a Creep Fake, the aide groping, child sniffer; who’s running on a ticket with Kamala Harris, a/k/a the VEEP Fake; well rested from having spent 40% of his presidency on vacation; and tirelessly training on dextroamphetamine to allow him to focus, along with physical therapy to keep him on his feet for 90 minutes.

Then, up on the podium, are Creep Fake’s tag team partners, CNN’s Jake the Fake Tapper, and Heep Big Fake Dana Bash.  These two are the costumed villains of the wrestling world, who masquerade as impartial journalists, but who really are itching hit Trump with a chair, and bounce his head off the turnbuckle.  What did you expect when Trump challenged Biden to debate “anytime, anywhere, with any rules?”  Be careful what you ask for.

Think I’m defaming the CNN hit squad?  Think again.  Fake Jake is an unabashed Trump hater.  Here are just a few of his greatest hits.  When Biden won in 2020 he said, “For tens of millions of our fellow Americans, their long national nightmare is over.”  He claimed Trump “continues to lie to the American people” about coronavirus testing.  He retweeted a post that called Trump “100% insane.”  He mocked Trump for being hospitalized for the Wuhan virus.  He has called Trump’s presidency a “disaster.”  Fake Jake denied the 2016 election by perpetrating the Russia collusion hoax.  He has claimed that Trump tried to kill democracy, and he ordered CNN’s control room not to cover Trump live, because “he lies so much” and is potentially dangerous.  Recently, Fake Jake criticized Trump for daring to complain about the legal colonoscopy he was getting in the Manhattan court.  And oh, I almost forgot, Fake Jake Tapper has compared former President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler.  Like I said, an impartial journalist.

Heep Big Fake Dana Bash is no slouch either.  She has denounced Trump, who has Jewish grandchildren, as “anti-Semitic and incredibly dangerous.” She’s on record arguing that, “unfortunately for America,” the US Supreme Court decided to keep Trump on the Colorado ballot.  She also suggested that Trump incited “war” domestically during his first term.

Heep Big Fake Bash was the perfect choice for debate moderator.  She called the 2020 Trump/Biden debate a “shit show,” a “bad reality TV show” and said that Trump “took it too far” with his aggression.  She also attacked Trump’s complaint about being stuck in the Manhattan courtroom by yelling,“Fact Check,” and then claiming that Trump “doesn’t have to be there, there is no requirement, he’s not compelled legally to be there.”  Well, “Fact Check” back at you!  There was no requirement but for the crooked judge’s threat to throw Trump’s ass in jail if he didn’t attend every day.

And not to be outdone by Fake Jake, Heep Big Fake has compared Trump’s rhetoric to that of Nazi Germany.  Don’t you just love a fair “debate?”

I’m nearly 700 words into this piece, and all I really had to say was “This is CNN.”  As this is written, the “debate” hasn’t happened yet, and already this past weekend, a CNN host named Hunt made it clear that the “debate” will be more about the CNN hosts than about the candidates.  The host shut off the microphone of Trump spokesperson Karoline Leavitt, who dared to suggest that Trump won’t get a fair shake in the “debate.”  When Leavitt tried to recount the history of anti-Trump statements of the moderators, CNN hustled her off the air, and the outraged CNN host chided, “You come on my show, you respect my colleagues.  Period.  I don’t care what side of the aisle you stand on, as my track record clearly shows.”

There was no need for Hunt to come to the aid of Tapper and Bash.  They had already announced that the fix was in.  Bash and Tapper have promised they “will use all tools at their disposal to enforce timing and ensure a civilized discussion, according to the network’s rules and guidelines released last week.”  Translation – “We’ll muzzle Trump every chance we get.  We’ll make sure we protect Biden by feeding him softball questions (it’s Monday, and I’m sure he’s already seen them), and by killing time correcting, arguing with and reprimanding Trump, and then shutting off his mic so he can’t reply.

Trump would do well to keep cool, ignore Biden and the CNN hit squad, and use his time to simply talk to the American people about the issues important to them.  All Trump needs to do is to dispel the false claims that he’s a rabid Nazi.  He’s ahead, and his base is solid.

Biden, on the other hand has a lot to prove.  I’ve heard suggestions that the “debate” was scheduled so early so the Dems can replace Biden if he fails to prove he can stay on his feet and handle the heat.  He’ll get plenty of help from his tag teammates.  But what the Hell?  3 against 1 is fair odds.  It’ll take more than three liars to cover up the Biden debacle.

All is not well in Leftist Land on the Potomac.  As George Lucas might say, “I feel a great disturbance in the Force.”  Democrats are sensing that their plan for keeping control of the White House may not be working.  As with all things Progressive, their plan is radical.

This was it, in a nutshell.  Get into office and undo everything that was done by President Trump because – “Orange Man bad!”  And then, simply decree all the Green, anti-American, anti-business, Marxist, Progressive bullshit that Congress never passed, and that Americans don’t want.  Simple, right?

The problem, of course, is that many of the Trump-era policies were beneficial.  If I have to say this again, Trump’s policies resulted in lower taxes, higher wages, full employment, secure borders, greatly improved trade agreements, a stronger military, a revitalized NATO alliance, no inflation, no foreign wars, and energy independence.

Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden reversed every one of those positives, replacing them with crippling inflation, high energy prices, no borders, a Woke military, and war and threat of war worldwide.  Oh, and he’s also sunk us trillions more in debt, and wants to spend much more, but he has a solution – raise all your taxes.

Over the years, I’ve pondered the wisdom of an Administration that seemingly goes out of its way to make life harder for American citizens.  Inflation is costing families an additional $900 a month just to keep pace.  Biden wants to take away your car, your gas stove, dryer, and furnace.  Meanwhile, he’s added 10 million illegal aliens to the welfare rolls.  He’s giving them housing, food, telephones and free transportation, but that’s alright.  You’ll just have to pay a little more.  Simply put, how can they piss off every voter, and then come back an say, “Give us four more years?”

Ah, they have a plan, you see.  Control the media, control the online platforms and censor dissent.  And then just lie about everything, and rely on the media to swear the lies are true.  Oh, and one more thing.  Indict your opponent four times so you can call him a convicted felon.  After all, the country’s polarized.  The independents will determine the election, and enough of them will believe the bullshit to drag Sleepy Joe over the finish line again.  Except it’s not working.

They convicted Trump in New York, and they’re lying their asses off, but Trump is ahead, even in the national polls.  It seems that, no matter how many times they swear that the economy is great, people still can’t pay their bills.  And then there’s the problem of Joe.

Joe Biden is deteriorating before our eyes.  He mumbles.  He stumbles.  He doesn’t know where he’s supposed to go.  He  shakes hands with nobody.  They’ve done their best to hide him in Delaware, but occasionally, he has to appear in public.  And his appearance is alarming.

First, there were media reports, from White House “insiders,” that Biden is “slipping behind closed doors.”  Anyone who ever saw him in public already knew that.  Then, three times in the last two weeks, video clips have shown Biden frozen in place, a blank stare on his confused face, being led away.

The videos sparked reports that Biden is suffering cognitive decline, and that he can’t perform as president.  Over 80% of voters believe Biden is physically and/or mentally incapable of completing a second term.  But fear not Democrats, Joe’s okay.  It’s all a clever ruse of those nasty MAGA extremists.  Don’t believe your lying eyes.

Biden spokes-liar Karine Jean-Pierre, a/k/a, Lying Orphan Annie, set things straight.  She said all these videos are either deep fakes, or cheap fakes.  Deep fakes are totally made up creations of artificial intelligence.  But since the White House Juneteenth party, the G7 Summit, and the California fundraiser featuring Il Duce Obama really happened, and were covered by myriad news agencies, they can’t be Deep.

Cheap fakes are edited videos that remove parts to change the context.  Karine says the clips were doctored to make Biden look bad.  But the video clips didn’t artificially make it appear that Biden was frozen in place and staring into oblivion.  That’s precisely what he did.  Moreover, how MAGA thugs managed to get outlets such as MSNBC and CNN to air the same clips is unclear.

Jean-Pierre shed light on this dilemma,”Instead of talking about the president’s performance in office, and what I mean by that is his legislative wins, what he’s been able to do for the American people across the country, we’re seeing these deepfakes, these manipulated videos. And it is, again, done in bad faith.”  That explains it.  The problem wasn’t the video, it was the commentary it provoked.

I’ll translate the Karine Jean-Pierre statement – “We’re all hard at work here lying about Joe Biden and his accomplishments.  Most of the media are on board, and are willing to swear that the lies are true.  How dare a political opponent suggest that there’s a problem.”

But there is a problem, and it’s name is Joe Biden.  According to his annual physical by his physician Kevin O’Connor, Biden  suffers from atrial fibrillation, peripheral neuropathy in his feet, and hyperlipidemia.  We’ve been treated to 3 1/2 years of
mumbling, stumbling Biden brain farts.  According to the American Heart Association’s publication Circulation, “Growing evidence suggests a consistent association between atrial fibrillation and cognitive impairment and dementia.”

Biden’s impairment is palpable.  Even the New York Times has commented on it, “If [Biden’s] unwillingness to face his own limitations now clears the way for Trump’s restoration, it will be not just a mistake but a tragedy.”

But no matter how dark it gets, the White House keeps pulling down the shades.  It’s not us, it’s MAGA, just talk about what we’ve done for the American people.  Somebody should.  What they’ve done is bankrupted the government and the American people.  They’ve catered to criminals and illegal aliens, and rendered Americans citizens second-class.

They’ve lied about inflation, the border, taxes, and energy policy.  They’ve hidden a decrepit president, who escaped indictment only because the prosecutor decided he’s “an elderly man with a poor memory.”

So the pertinent question is, “Is it deep fake, cheap fake, or is Biden just a fake?”  And who are the fakers?  How about the Democrats who swore Hunter’s laptop was fake, who perpetuated the Russian collusion hoax, and the Ukraine phone call hoax, and the impeachment hoaxes?  Or how about a president who’s ordered by the Supreme Court not to forgive student loans, but does it anyway?  The true fake is residing in the White House.

Joe Biden, ask not for whom the fake bell tolls.  It tolls for thee.  Since last June, I’ve been saying Biden will not be the candidate.  I suspect the June debate, the first ever before the conventions, is designed to showcase Biden’s deficits in time to replace him on the ticket.
