I think this is the best single essay I've read about the mean-spirited hollow-souled Joe Biden. Thank you for it.

This captures my assessment of him perfectly.

In his autobiography, Clarence Thomas recalls his time with Biden during his nomination to the Supreme Court. Accurately, Justice Thomas paints a highly negative picture of this lying, self-serving politician whose moral compass is broken.

The massive crew around Biden that usurped the presidency and also neglected its sick figurehead needs exposure and legal punishment.

Watts happening now is exactly the same. An old man who is starting to lose it. There should be term limits and age limits. Trump is also too old. Biology wins every time. Every time.

I agree that government has been robbing citizens and approve of attempts to stop that.

Brilliant. I also remember that he was considered a joke by 2008 when picked by Obama for VP--Uncle Joe the bumbler.

He was widely considered an insurance policy against someone assassinating the first black president. They’d be stuck with Joe…

We are still only beginning to understand all the harm done not only by Biden but by his puppeteers, including Barack Obama.

It is worth considering, at least in part because of its timing, that Biden does not have stage 4 prostate cancer. There seems to be no reason for assuming that this time they are truthful.

It might be chaff meant to distract us from the autopen story.

Steve Hayward actually said that same thing when it was announced.

Of the many other questions that the longevity of Mr. Biden also raises is this: in our post-Cold War self-degradation in our choices for national leadership, why have voters, particularly those in Delaware but later all of us, been so willing to settle for such a loathsome figure?

Because DE is a low tax state because Biden, in his many years in politics, has made the state a tax haven for big corporations. DE is what is called a Domestic or On Shore tax haven. Its business friendly tax laws and corporate regulations draw big business seeking to minimize their tax burden. In return for the Fed tax/regulation favor, big business supports the state itself. Dupont basically owns the state of DE.

You have been too nice. this barely scratches the surface of the evilness of Joe and Jill and damage they’ve done to this country.

Given the track record and timing, why does everyone seem to believe this is genuinely at the Gleason 9 level? Should we, in other words, expect a miracle once the criminality/senility uproar dies away?

I don't know but I certainly wouldn't put it past him (or them.) Look at how he distorted both his first wife's death and his son's to try to garner sympathy for political advantage.

He'll be slurping down ice cream in his private security zone on Rehoboth Beach years from now while the proles are still waiting in line to park 5 blocks away.

Totally agree. Biden is a horrible person. He ruined his children And at heart and maybe in deed (for sure with his daughter) he’s a pedophile.

Time to revisit the "You had to put on your windshield wipers to get, literally, the oil slick off the window" and "that's why I . . . have cancer" speech back in 2022. For once, everyone but Biden was lying at the time!

Amazing piece, Steve.

I've been a witness to my husband, 10 years younger, living with 2 years of active surveillance, then testosterone blockers and 28 radiation treatments.

How stupid do they think we are.

This fraud of a man, his wife and the crooks who supported this have to be held to account.

Shame on them all.

His brother Jim also said in 2024 when Joe withdrew from the election, that now Joe could enjoy "the time remaining to him." What did he know? The family claimed it was just a drunk talking, but was that all it was?

I think I read he had skin cancer but, true to Biden form, his comment mangled the cause since everything has to be about Joe Biden.

One more small item for Steve's impressive list of malignancies: "Biden's" Administration made possible not only that someone could leave behind cocaine in the White House, but that nothing ever would be done about it.

Next to lying, pleading for sympathy has been Biden’s signature move.

And it's not a "tragedy" when someone over 80 gets a terminal diagnosis. It's sad if it affects you personally, but "that's life." The tragedy would be spending ridiculous amounts of public resources to try and "save" him.
