“My favorite part was when he said we have a plan but I can’t tell you what it is.”

Did you notice the shelf of presidential volumes behind him?

I assume they are window dressing to affirm the legitimacy of his presidency. The buck stops here, etc.

I guess that's expected.
However even reliably left papers & magazines are placing the blame on Biden.
Then there's Biden's obvious & growing dementia. I guess till not noticeable to them.

I think you got the number of syllables right, but “domestic and world affairs” is more of a mouthful than “round my back stairs”.

Because the lefties really don’t care who is in the White House as long as it’s still a D, they are interchangeable.

Watching CBS news, and no men seem to work there. The snotty anchor is pretty irritating.

They put this imbecile in power, and now have to pretend to be surprised with his decision making. Operation “Pass the buck” has now hit the news rooms. Dont blame us, we helped put him in office, but we had no idea....

The face you make when you have condemned 15,000 American Citizens and another 65,000 Afghan Allies to being hunted down, beheaded, executed in a cricket stadium, allowed and entire population of women to become sex slaves and girls turned into child brides or sex slaves by savages.

You didn’t miss anything, a lot of blah, blah blah!

My favorite part was Ed Okeefe saying forgive me I’m only the messenger but a new CBS poll says that Americans are losing confidence in your competence. What would he say to reassure them?

Biden was shaking his head and said I haven’t seen that poll.😂🤣

The President is like the Queen now. Just a figure head.


Well except Her Majesty is capable of uttering coherent sentences and as a figure head is constitutionally fulfilling her role as monarch as her subjects expects.

That was unexpected, given the buildup to Henri the last few days hitting NE Coast.

Because I was working, I missed the presser.

If there were any REAL journalists, one would have asked, “last week, the Chinese Foreign Minister lectured SoS Antony Blinken on the US failure in Afghanistan. Would you explain, in detail, Mr. President, the spanking that Xi Jinping gave you, for not turning over a ‘secure’ Afghanistan to the PRC, one where the PRC can mine Afghanistan’s wealth without concern for terrorist attacks?”

If it were PDJY in office, instead of Dementia Joe, I could see the ‘journolists’ asking such a pointed question.

“”Biden states ‘I Resign’...””

I’d rather see him walk into an open manhole.

I can’t stand to listen to this blithering idiot without throwing something at the tv, so I get all my news from Free Republic.
Has a single reporter been aggressively rude to him? Do they shout questions and interrupt him like they did Tump? Has anyone asked him if he feels responsible for the deaths outside the airport and the Afghans who fell to their death, like the asked Trump if he felt guilty about all the Covid deaths?
Has a single reporter asked him about his dumb desicions such as withdrawing the Military before the civilians and abadoning Bagram Air Base?

I noticed that the volumes started with JFK and ended with Obama, with Reagan’s volumes covered by Biden’s head (if they were there at all).

I don’t think he is allowed to see anything that has some negativity to it.

Does ANY sentient American believe for one NY SECOND that Sloe Joe is lucid enough to even understand what happened in Afghanistan?

Same thing apples for Hurricane Henri; what does Sloe Joe know about hurricanes that we don’t know, and, why should we care?
