The Biden Presidency

I think President Biden did very well indeed in this video and fantastically well over all the days of the NATO Summit. Very well indeed for his age. In the circumstances calling him 'wobbly or sleepy Joe' is very unfair. In 1988 he had two brain aneurysms one of which burst.
He is known to have arthritis of the spine and arthritis of one foot after a fracture three years ago. He is also on Omniprazole which is for acidity the reason he still coughs quite a lot.
He is also on Rosuvastatin for high cholesterol. Diagnosed also with Basal Carcinoma a form of cancer and so it goes on.
It is very brave of him to carry on carrying the Mantle of Freedom of the whole of the Western world and those in the Pacific Regions.
God bless Joe Biden as most would be in an armchair all day and maybe in a Care Home. Despite all this he soldiers on with President Zelensky.
In other words, you should all be ashamed of yourselves.


Wahoo,!
In my opinion, he should be ashamed, if he was still able to think, of not resigning, or should I say abdicating,let alone considering presenting himself to the next election...
A crook puppet whose actions actually precipitate the collapse of our past great democratic model, transforming a beacon of freedom, economic system and model for aspiring world citizens, into an old sagging corrupt angry and collapsing but divided country whose citizens are sick, manipulated, exploited and slaughtered.
I have a few American friends and i feel for them, their kids as much as i feel for the associated whole West civilizational collapse around me and my family.
Biden is no joke, he is a disaster, the boiling frog in the kettle.
But each to his her own...
 
In some ways, the replacement of Biden with someone else at this late stage is not really the story.
It gets the headlines, but underneath it all is a sorry tale of decline in democratic standards.
A lot of observers have suggested that Biden was not up to performing what is a very demanding job, and have done so even before he was elected to the Job.
To top it off, the Hur report found that a Jury was not likely to convict him because

But the Democrats and their accolytes maintained that he was sharp as ever, up to the job and functioning well.
The MSM went along with it, and accused anyone of suggesting otherwise as spreading disinformation.
The Hollywood set were all behind him. especially George Clooney.
Clooney ran a fund raiser for Biden that we are told bought in $30 million for the Biden Campaign.
So despite so many obvious clues that Biden was well past it, it took "the debate" to make so many so called intelligent people come to the same conclusion , all at the same time?
Before the debate, everyone was in unison, on the same page, declaring Biden would not only run, but beat trump in November.
Then all of a sudden, he is not fit to run, needs to be replaced, and even George has stabbed him in the back.
I find it laughable that Clooney, a man who has been paid millions to pretend that he is someone , else gets credence as he pretends he is a cognitive expert.
So who has really been running the USA if Biden has been a dottery old man all along?
Who has been making decisions about trade, about defence, about foreign affairs, energy policy etc.
Who is making them today, given the pathetically weak performance by the incumbent president.
Who will make them tomorrow and the next day all through till the inauguration of the next president in early January 2025?
I think there is much to worry about.

I can not say better, this is not new indeed
 
The multinational companies, as usual IMO.
And the WEF behind the scene..not even sure we even know any of the actual rulers.
I somewhat doubt that the Bezos Gates and Big banks are in charge...allied and involved, but not in charge.
One thing for sure, it is not Biden
 
My opinion is going to be unpopular on this site but it is that Biden’s first term has overall been highly successful. He has countered China very successfully with clever policy. His team overall behind him have done OK on a lot of fronts.

If it had of been him instead of Clinton, Trump would never have got in and he would be retiring now.

The way the USA system works is that the funding doesn't go to the party, it goes to the President or nominee. So all that money is lost unless he hands over to Kamella. She can't win being both black and female so they are in between a rock and a hard place. I can't see them winning with someone else and no money.

So he gets to say if he goes and he isn't going. So game over, it's Biden vs Trump. Trump is scary to many, Agenda 45 and setting up a one party fascist state doesn't go well with many. So it's going to be close. Trump has recently said he rejects Agenda 45 but people can't tell if he is being truthful.

If it had of been Biden vs Nicky Haley like I wanted, she would have romped it in but now it is close.

Let the people decide. Might be the last time.

It is a bit of a mess, the general public and the media are saying Biden has to go, for the sake of the World and Democracy. Also Trump has to go for the sake of the World and Democracy.
Then you have Rupert saying Australia will be a Republic with 10 years, it really is a sad state of affairs at the moment.
If Australia is going to have the cheque book politics of the U.S, the only saving grace IMO, Rupert will be too old to be the President. ;)

Like feck! I'm not against the principle of an Australian republic per se, but does anyone think that such a model presented will be in the interests of the Australian people?

Not a chance in hell.

Yes the Elites, who want to run the show and write their own rules, could think of nothing better.

Just look at all the Republics, a rich dude in the Big Chair, being funded by the super rich "supporters".
 
It looks as if the Democratic Party is in a checkmate position. President Biden isn't that bad after all so come on there is so much help around
and not so wobbly Joe looks the only great hope. Back good old Joe Biden. Sock it to Trump get in there.

Biden delivers newly fiery speech declaring Trump unfit to be president​

Turning up the volume in his fight to save his candidacy, Biden charged that Trump has gotten a 'free pass’ for his behavior and verbal stumbles

The GOP sure has a great PR Department...
Some of the photos appear to suggest that Trump was involved in Raising The US Flag on Iwo Jima during the 2nd WW..
Come to think of it, Trump does look a bit like Ira Hayes...
Wonder what the next shooter's aim will be like..

Joe did incite the shooting, he should actually be impeached and indicted.

Did Joe's team really come out with 'put a target on Trump' or the like recently? If so, I imagine those types of posts are being rapidly removed from the media.
 
There is a recording of this apparently.

Clearly it's an assassination attempt from the Democrats riled up by Trump's attempt to hang Mike Pence, assassination of Pelosi etc.

A realistically view is Musk knowns how to be a sycophant when he has been told how all this will be fixed so Trump wins,
 
It is good to see Biden and Zelensky remain friends. At some point, the real Putin may see Zelensky as the real target. He may conjure up
a way I believe to make it look as if it wasn't him. Otherwise, he becomes a target as well.
