Unhappy birthday, Joe? Biden turns 81 with plans for VERY low-key Nantucket celebration, as White House launches 'BUBBLE WRAP strategy' to try and stop president tripping in public
Daily Mail ^ | 11/20/23 | Stephen M. Lepore

Joe Biden has turned 81 with plans for a low-key celebration in Nantucket - as his administration deploys a 'Bubble Wrap' strategy to stop him from falling in public.

The President has seen repeated questions over his fitness for office, with polls and pundits suggesting it is a huge problem with less than a year to the 2024 election.

When asked to respond to concerns about his age by the New York Times, the White House swerved and tried to rattle off a list of his achievements.

'Because of President Biden's decades of experience in public service and deep relationships with leaders in Congress, he passed legislation that has helped to create more than 14 million jobs, lower prescription drug costs, invest in America's infrastructure and technology and led to the strongest economic recovery in the developed world,' White House Communications Director Ben LaBolt said.

But some of his staffers still believe he needs protecting, with a new strategy being set out to stop him falling or getting lost on stage like he has on multiple occasions.

Some described it as putting the president in bubble wrap until November 2024 to make sure he doesn't trip or fall in public again, like he did at an Air Force Academy commencement in June.

Yet other current and former administration officials vehemently disagree and called for him to hit the campaign trail to 'show his vigor' and 'boast about his age rather than ignore it.'

Veteran Democrat strategist Simon Rosenberg is in the latter camp, saying Biden should hit home his age and experience even harder.

'He's been successful because of his age, not in spite of it,' Rosenberg said.

'We're all going to have to make that case because it's true. We can't run away from the age issue.

LOLOL. Maybe 14 million SECOND jobs.

Did you see the look on Jill Biden’s face?
I think the GOP could sabotage Joe by putting a little girl in the front of every campaign stop

Probably, but maybe see if a mannequin is good enough. Don’t want to be enabling molestation.

” in bubble wrap until November 2024”
In other words, we know he’s a bumbling, stumbling idiot, but we just have to cover it up to get him re-elected.
They’re admitting he’s toast, right in front of the world.

It wasn’t until one of his recent trips abroad that I noticed Biden now enters and exits AF1 through the baggage stairs into the belly of the plane. POTUS enters and exits through the cargo hold. That way he only has to go up and down about eight to ten steps. Therefore, reducing his chance to stumble on camera.

Unhappy birthday, Joe? Biden turns 81

The socialist dem party would do better if they openly admitted that the Imbecile was nothing more than a puppet zombie for Hussein 0bama and george soros.

Oh, amen. She’s gone from just wicked and elder abusing to evil. In this extremely dangerous world of today, that she and the party hacks continue to advocate his re-election so they can hold into power when they know he cannot do the job is simply evil. Sure the Obamites think having them running things behind the scenes is sufficient, but can it really be contended that having this dotard as the face of the US is driving a lot of the problems we’re experiencing now?

Trump trusted everyone to make their own decision whether to take vaxx or not.

Remember what happened when Biden was installed?

“The unvaccinated overcrowd our hospitals … leaving no room for someone with a heart attack or pancreatitis or cancer,” Biden said in a speech on Sept. 9, 2021, announcing the new orders. “We’ve been patient, but our patience is wearing thin. And your refusal has cost all of us.”
Joe Biden, September 2021

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/heres-whos-covered-by-covid-19-vaccine-mandates-in-the-u-s-so-far

Biden’s New Orders

“The newest vaccine requirements cover over 100 million workers in total – and it’s unknown how many of these people remain unvaccinated.

The biggest part of Biden’s orders involve having the Occupational Safety and Health Administration develop a rule that companies with 100 or more employees ensure their workers are fully vaccinated or are tested weekly for COVID-19. Although less than 2% of U.S. companies have 100 or more employees, according to recent Census data, they employ over 80 million workers.

The penalty for noncompliance could be fines for the employer of up to US$14,000 per violation.

Biden will also require federal employees, government contractors and health care workers who treat patients on Medicare and Medicaid to get vaccinated – about 20 million people – with no option to undergo frequent testing instead.

In addition, the new plan urges large entertainment venues like concert halls and sports stadiums to require proof of vaccination for entry and demands companies provide workers with paid time off to get their shots and to recover from possible vaccine-related side effects.”

You’ve got a point there. My tag line accuses liberals of being stupid.

Good Lord it seems like about 99% of the planet doesn’t know it’s ass from a hole in the ground.
