New in PJ Media:
Will America’s 47th president turn out to be Kamala Harris instead of Donald Trump? It could happen. National Security Council (NSC) advisor Henry Appel was just caught on undercover video saying that Old Joe Biden was “like, dead. Not literally.” And on Tuesday, the New York Times published a massive two-thousand-word elegy to the departing mouthpiece for the people in power, entitled, “A Weary Biden Heads for the Exit.” “Weary” is an understatement.
The Times pulled out all the stops to paint Old Joe as a tragic figure, but all it managed to do was to show yet again that the man in the Oval Office has no business being there, and that America dodged a bullet when Nancy Pelosi’s coup ended his reelection campaign. Not that the left doesn’t have more assaults on our freedoms and national cohesion in the offing, but Old Joe’s permanent retirement to his taxpayer-funded walled Delaware beach house couldn’t come a moment too soon. We can all hope that Biden lasts until Jan. 20, even if only to spare us a month-long (or less) Kamala Harris presidency. Harris would have more energy than Biden, and a lot of damage can be done in a month.
The subheading on the lengthy Times article is illuminating in itself: “Still stinging from the election, President Biden is pushing for his final priorities but has largely absented himself from the national conversation about Donald Trump after warning repeatedly that he was a threat to American democracy.”
Well, yes, he has. In fact, the Times doesn’t mention it here, but Biden greeted Trump cordially at the White House and pledged (however insincerely) to do all that he could to make for a smooth transition. The most obvious explanation for why Biden has “largely absented himself from the national conversation about Donald Trump after warning repeatedly that he was a threat to American democracy” is not just his declining abilities, but that all the hysteria about how Trump was a threat to democracy was a steaming pile of nonsense from the get-go, and Biden and his handlers were well aware of that fact.
Other than that, the Times article practically begs us to shed a tear for Old Joe, but all it manages to elicit is a sigh of relief. Biden, we’re told, “looks a little older and a little slower with each passing day.” Nevertheless, the Paper of Record can’t break its old habit of covering for the putative president’s frequent incoherence and manifest dementia, and so it adds, “Aides say he remains plenty sharp in the Situation Room, calling world leaders to broker a cease-fire in Lebanon or deal with the chaos of Syria’s rebellion.”
There is more. Read the rest here.

Yes, Harris is enough to make us hope Joe and Co. can make it a bit longer, even given the mess that he and that show have been.
The Old Gray Lady offers no sympathy for citizens subjected to this puppetry, I see.

Hey Joe?Mr Potus….That wasn’t the bathroom.That was the blue cupboard….

I don’t care so much about him, although it was funny to see him lash out at Pelosi, albeit indirectly, in terms of attacking congresspeople who traded stocks of companies they were regulating. Mr Pot, let me introduce you to Mrs Kettle!
But I do wish the bureaucracy wouldn’t act on autopilot, like signing off on an agreement to let bureaucrats work remotely for the next 5 years. This has been the worst transition ever, destroying a tradition of almost 250 years, and strongly making the case for the US to do what other counties do, and have an immediate transfer of power after the elections. They may claim that it’s Biden doing it, but I doubt that he’s got many of his marbles
Tim gallagher says
I see Biden as nothing but a megalomaniac who, despite being way past any ability to do the job as president, got the job and was hopeless at it. Or maybe it was his Lady Macbeth type wife who pushed the demented shell of a man, Biden, into running for the job as president. A person who cared about the USA would have admitted to not being up to doing the job and not run. Truly a hopeless president and a corrupt grub of a human being.
James Lincoln says
All true, Tim.
But I’ll take it a step further:
He’s a psychopath – no conscience.
Tim gallagher says
I would say you are spot on with that description of Biden, James. Didn’t he cling on to power, the demented old goat. Merry Christmas to you and your family, James.
James Lincoln says
Tim,
Thanks for your reply.
And a very Merry Christmas to both you and yours!
Keys says
Makes one wonder why Biden is in a “steep decline” now, or even near a soon end to his life at this point. Maybe he just knows too much. Horrible thought,
WPM says
The biggest misjustice was the MSM media (NYT ,ASC , CNN, CBS ,and others) openly lying about Biden to the public , and the people around Biden proclaiming he was “sharp as a tack” ,ran circles around them in performing the job as president “was “full of energy” as Biden fell asleep live on TV with meeting with world leaders . His self destruction in his debate with Trump cap 4 years of a cover up of a man who had was senile when he was first elected and they could not cover it up any longer.
WPM says
What is truly Tragic is the damage done to this country and the world with Biden as President for the last 4 years. The NYT and MSM reputation is total trashed in how they try to run cover for this mean, corrupt ,senile man and his grifting family .
