There would be no reason to purposely aggravate a senile old man, but it's not hard to imagine an angry old geezer lurching to his feet with clenched fists waving and spittle spraying, launching accusations and threats upon learning the Visiting Angels threw away his half-eaten cup of pudding whilst he was down for a nap.
Now consider that image and take a look at Joe Biden; listen to the accusatory, threatening words he's been reading from the teleprompter. It's the image of an angry old man lashing out at his perceived enemies, people with whom he used to be friends, along with those he's never met... like a large number of Americas, people he now condemns as evil. See any similarities?
Some senile old men can't remember to put on their pants, others have no idea what pants even are, but somehow, they're able to recollect memories long past. Sadly, almost never accurately, and in Joe Biden's case, his problems with accuracy... also known as the truth, began when he was in his prime. As for putting on his pants... fortunately, the Visiting Angels take care of that.
Recently, Joe Biden lurched to a microphone where he pounded the podium with clenched fists. What followed sounded more like an angry, my-pudding’s-missing outburst than a speech as he resurrected the past, comparing opponents to irrelevant relics like George Wallace, Bull Connor, and Jefferson Davis in an effort to demonize his perceived enemies.
The three long-gone politicians Joe Biden cited were segregationists, all of them democrats; George Wallace once lavished praise on a fellow up-and-coming segregationist named... Joe Biden, and his voting record tends to warrant it. Kamala Harris seems to agree... she once called Joe Biden a racist, too. But he's forgotten all about that, just like he often forgets who the president is... and where he hung his pants.
Sadly... shockingly, actually, we have a president who's the embodiment of that angry old man described in the opening paragraph. And now, not only has his half-eaten cup of pudding been tossed, he just found out that only 33% of Americans consider him competent, so expect even more frequent angry, clenched-fist outbursts. And the odds are improving by the day that he'll forget to wear his pants!
But the real question is this: Just who ever thought for a moment that Joe Biden, a doddering, incoherent, senile old man, was ever competent? I don't know, but...
Every one of them deserves pudding... a full cup.
