From their cold, dead hands…
They’ll drag Joe’s rotting carcass over the finish line even if it kills them
NBC News reported on Saturday that the Biden family was headed back to Camp David to discuss the “path forward” for Grandpa Joe after his dementia took center stage at last week’s presidential debate.
By Sunday morning, CNN reporter Jeff Zeleny clarified that the Camp David Biden family getaway was pre-planned and included a photo shoot with celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz.
New York Times White House correspondent Katie Rogers reported later that the Biden family did not have a pow-wow about the future of Biden’s reelection campaign as NBC’s unnamed sources claimed. Instead, the family spent the morning in hair and makeup to prepare for the photo shoot.
I read the updates on Twitter with a growing sense of amusement.
If you want to know why the Biden family wants its senile patriarch to continue publicly humiliating himself on the world stage, the clue is in the phrase “photo shoot with Annie Leibovitz.”
Do you think Jill Biden wants to give up the wealth, fame, and perks that being married to a Democrat president guarantees?
How else could an unremarkable elementary school teacher like Jill ever have the chance to rub elbows with Hollywood stars or pose for celebrity photographers like Annie Leibovitz?
According to the New York Times, Joe’s convicted felon son Hunter was especially influential in convincing old Joe to continue dragging his half-dead carcass to November:
One of the strongest voices imploring Mr. Biden to resist pressure to drop out was his son Hunter Biden, whom the president has long leaned on for advice, said one of the people informed about the discussions, who, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity to share internal deliberations. Hunter Biden wants Americans to see the version of his father that he knows — scrappy and in command of the facts — rather than the stumbling, aging president Americans saw on Thursday night.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!
No. That’s not why Hunter wants Daddy to stick this out. Nobody believes that.
Without Joe in the White House, Hunter’s source of income dries up faster than spit on a summer sidewalk. Eastern European oligarchs will ignore his calls while Chinese officials send his emails to the spam folder.
In short, Hunter and the rest of the Delaware hillbillies might have to get jobs.
The Biden family consists of dysfunctional mid-wits, drug addicts, and money-grubbing opportunists who, but for Joe’s half-century in government, would be living in a trailer park with a 30-year-old Impala rusting on blocks in the driveway and a three-legged mangy dog dozing beside the wading pool where granddaughter Navy plays with her half-brother Beau.
They certainly wouldn’t be at Camp David getting their hair and makeup done in anticipation of a photo shoot with Annie friggin’ Leibovitz.
If the Biden family has to “Weekend At Bernie’s” Joe through November, then by God, that’s what they’ll do.
You thought the Biden family dogs were vicious? Honey, wait until you see how Jill reacts if she has to move out of the White House in January.
There’s a reason I call her the Lady Macbeth of American politics.
Jill Biden is a vainglorious, horrible woman who pushed her husband to run for President long past his expiration date, knowing even then that Joe’s brain was turning to farina.
DOCTOR Jill spent eight years watching as the media, celebrities, and foreign leaders fawned all over Michelle Obama, and fully expected that she would be next. She was probably seething with rage when Obama passed her husband over in favor of Hillary in 2016 and, by God, she wasn’t going to let 2020 pass her by without one final chance to enjoy that Michelle magic.
Does anyone think she’d willingly give it up?
I’m guessing Jill spends each night in the White House residence listening to Joe breathing beneath the mask of his CPAP machine while visions of multiple eight-figure, ghostwritten memoirs dance in her head.
Putting her husband’s mental and physical well-being ahead of four more years of fame and fawning press attention is not and never will be an option.
Yes!!! You so called it. So happy that you're somewhat better!
You’re back! And still spitting fire and brimstone like the Dianny I’ve come to love over the years!
Excellent commentary, as usual.
