Biden’s Leisurely Stroll to the Finish Line
Buckle up, folks! It seems President Biden is coasting into the finish line of his term with all the energy of a grandpa at a Sunday picnic. Our commander-in-chief returned to Washington, D.C., Monday morning after spending a leisurely weekend at his beach house in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Pictures of him sunbathing with family could give any retiree goals for their golden years.
This week, Biden’s agenda is lighter than a feather in a windstorm. Monday? Nada. Nothing. No public events. Tuesday, he pops up in New Orleans for a Cancer Moonshot event — sounds fancy, but as long as it’s not another failed launcher. Thursday, he heads to Maryland to rally for Vice President Kamala Harris, the new Democratic torchbearer hoping to not drop it.
Biden’s Busy(?) Schedule
Day | Activity |
---|---|
Monday | Nothing (Recovering from weekend?) |
Tuesday | Cancer Moonshot event in New Orleans |
Wednesday | Nothing (Midweek siesta?) |
Thursday | Rally for Kamala Harris in Maryland |
Friday | Nothing (Weekend warm-up?) |
Fun fact: having a grand total of two public events this week means he’s doubled his hard work compared to last week! Overachiever alert, folks! This marathon runner might need a nap soon.
So, what’s on his “to do” list after Thursday? Not much! Nothing scheduled for Wednesday or Friday. Ah, the presidential life. A trip to Camp David for the weekend to take another snooze is on the books.
World Keeps Spinning While Biden Naps
Meanwhile, the world spins on. Israel is teetering on war with Iran and its band of merry troublemakers, Hamas and Hezbollah. Iran’s been poking at Israel with rockets like an annoying sibling, and Hamas is sitting out any cease-fire talks — probably because they don’t know how to play nice.
Biden’s got one eye on this mess, claiming that achieving a cease-fire before he exits stage left is a top priority. But if there’s one priority he’s been crushing, it’s avoiding any comment on Team USA’s fantastic performance at the Paris Olympics. Go, America! Just don’t expect a presidential shout-out.
Biden’s Revealing Interview
His noteworthy appearance in recent days? An interview with CBS’s Bob Costa that aired Sunday. There, Biden shared juicy tidbits on how many Democratic pals pushed him out of the 2024 race. Kind of like when you have to leave the party early because your friends think you’re a buzzkill.
“A bunch of my Democratic friends in the House and Senate were super worried I was going to mess things up for them,” Biden confessed. “I figured if I stayed in, we’d just end up talking about why Nancy Pelosi said this or that — total distraction.”
Ain’t that the truth? And so, exit Biden, who bowed out of the race in July and tossed his support behind Harris. Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Chuck Schumer, and other Democrats allegedly nudged him to the exit like they were all condo board members ready to elect a new HOA president.
Meanwhile, Let’s Recall Some Trump-era Triumphs
While Biden’s taking his sweet time with his presidential duties, it’s worth remembering the bustling energy of the Trump administration. Let’s take a quick trip down memory lane:
- Achieved record-low unemployment rates for African Americans, Hispanic Americans, and Asian Americans.
- Signed the biggest package of tax cuts and reforms in history, boosting take-home pay for the average American family.
- Brokered historic peace agreements in the Middle East with the Abraham Accords.
- Secured $250 billion in new trade and investment deals in China and $12 billion in Vietnam.
Now that’s what we call a packed presidential schedule!
Kamala’s Verbal Adventures
As Biden passes the torch to Kamala Harris, let’s not forget her unique way with words. Remember her profound insights on the passage of time? “There is great significance to the passage of time… and there is such great significance to the passage of time.” Deep stuff, folks.
Or how about her eloquent description of Jamaica? “For Jamaica, one of the issues that has been presented as an issue that is economic in the way its impact has been the pandemic.” Couldn’t have said it better ourselves, Madam Vice President!
Biden’s Foreign Policy Fumbles
While Biden’s been catching Z’s, his foreign policy hasn’t exactly been catching wins. Let’s review some greatest hits:
- The chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal, leaving American citizens and allies behind.
- Slow-walking support for Ukraine, giving Russia time to dig in.
- Cozying up to China while they expand their global influence.
- Alienating allies like Saudi Arabia, pushing them closer to Russia and China.
It’s been quite the ride. So, if Biden’s schedule looks like your grandpa’s lazy Sunday, just remember, every nap brings us closer to Kamala Harris’ move to the front seat. Stay sharp, America!
Conclusion: Napping Towards 2024
As we watch Biden shuffle towards the end of his term, one can’t help but wonder: Is this the “return to normalcy” we were promised? If by normalcy they meant a president who treats the Oval Office like a retirement home, then mission accomplished!
While the world faces crises and America grapples with inflation, border issues, and international tensions, our Commander-in-Chief seems more interested in commandeering the best napping spots. It’s like watching a sitcom where the main character accidentally became president and is just trying to coast through without anyone noticing.
But fear not, fellow Americans! As Biden dozes off into the sunset, we’re left with the linguistic acrobatics of Kamala Harris to look forward to. Who knows what profound observations about the passage of time or the nature of things that are the way they are await us?
In the meantime, let’s keep our sense of humor. After all, laughter might be the best medicine for the political headache we’re all experiencing. Stay tuned, stay vigilant, and maybe invest in a good coffee maker – we might all need to stay extra alert to keep up with the high-energy hijinks of the Biden-Harris show!
