Scrooge 2024: A Very Biden Christmas

New in PJ Media:

Kamala’s political career was dead: to begin with. There is no doubt whatever about that. Old Joe Biden signed off on it, even holding a cordial meeting with Donald Trump in the White House. Cackling Kamala’s chaotic career was as dead as a door-nail.

Yeah, you’ve heard this before. This is indeed “A Christmas Carol,” and with Old Joe’s wild Scroogey hair billowing in the wind at the White House’s National Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony on Friday, the comparison was irresistible. The New York Post reported that the Biden “doffed his stocking cap to reveal long, wispy locks — appearing more like a character out of Charles Dickens’ Yuletide classic than the commander-in-chief. His white, billowy hair stood on end from the wool cap’s static electricity, spooking the White House press corps by making him seem older — and ghostlier — than usual.”

Ghosts. Ah! Of course. The mention of Kamala’s political funeral brings me back to the point I started from. “A MAGA Christmas, uncle! God save you!” cried a cheerful voice. It was the voice of the American people, who came upon him so quickly that this was the first intimation he had of his approach. “Bah!” said Old Joe, “Humbug!”

But Old Joe was in for a troubled night. Let any man explain to me, if he can, how it happened that Biden, having his key in the lock of the door, saw in the knocker, without its undergoing any intermediate process of change–not a knocker, but Kamala’s face. “Who are you?” a terrified Biden asks.

“Ask me who I was.”

“In political life I was your running mate, Kamala Harris. And this night, you will be haunted by Three Spirits.” Then she hiccuped.

First to come was a portly spirit with an unfashionably shapeless beard. “I am the Ghost of Free Republics Past,” the spirit announced. “Rise! And walk with me!” As the words were spoken, they passed through the wall and stood in the United States Senate. “Good Heaven!” said Old Joe, clasping his hands together, as he looked about him. “I was bred in this place. I was a boy here!”

It was a confirmation hearing for a Supreme Court Justice. “In life,” the spirit told Scrooge Biden, “I was Robert Bork, a highly capable and qualified judge whom Ronald Reagan nominated for the Supreme Court, only for you to destroy my chances, and my reputation, in brazenly unfair and partisan confirmation hearings. The Hill noted in 2020 that ‘Supreme Court nomination hearings have gone from serene to savage, thanks largely to Joe Biden.’ Your ‘smearing of Bork for his original-intent judicial philosophy transformed hearings for Supreme Court nominees into bloody ideological battles. Henceforth, all conservative nominees were subjected to “Borking.”’”
