I watched Dementia Joe\u2019s latest weasel speech<\/a>.\u00a0 Biden\u2019s handlers must have told him that the best way to sell the message that his humiliating rout out of Kabul was a great success was to shout it from the podium as loud as he could.\u00a0 This speech was long and stupid.\u00a0 Much of it was the same boilerplate he gave us a few days ago when he told us he wouldn\u2019t leave anyone behind.\u00a0 Now he\u2019s telling us that the hundreds of Americans trapped behind enemy lines got what they deserved because they were warned.<\/p>\n

Joe also told us that the mission went as planned.\u00a0 He specifically says that there was no way that civilians could have been successfully and completely evacuated before the rout.\u00a0 And since he is the greatest military strategist since Napoleon, we have to take his word for it.\u00a0 And he waved the flag for the soldiers killed at the airport and he patted himself on the back for ending the war.\u00a0 But it mostly sounded like a salesman trying to convince a customer that the broken Timex he had received was exactly as good as the Rolex he had paid for.<\/p>\n

I think it\u2019s good that the American people have had a chance to see Joe during a crisis.\u00a0 It will show them just how he\u2019ll handle any difficult task.\u00a0 He\u2019ll botch it.\u00a0 He\u2019ll blame other people.\u00a0 Then he\u2019ll tell you there was no other way it could have ended.\u00a0 Disaster accomplished!\u00a0 Joe is always the hero in all his stories.\u00a0 He\u2019s the smartest, the bravest and the most honorable.\u00a0 If you don\u2019t believe him, he\u2019ll tell you again only louder.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m trying to guess what the next disaster will be.\u00a0 I\u2019d say most likely it will be a hostage drama involving ISIS-K and one of the Left Behind Americans in Kabul.\u00a0 Joe can yell at the top of his lungs that the hostage got what she deserved and that he\u2019ll avenge the death by sending a drone strike from \u201cover the horizon.\u201d\u00a0 Of course, the drone will probably kill another half dozen Afghani kids and miss the terrorists but once again it will be disaster accomplished.<\/p>\n

Three more years of this may be enough even for the stupid suburban white women who voted for Joe.\u00a0 There are indications that stagflation is taking hold in the economy.\u00a0 If memory serves me correctly, the last time that word was used was when Jimmy Carter was bumbling his way through the late seventies.\u00a0 Twenty percent mortgages and 8% unemployment are a powerful combination.\u00a0 So powerful that even the Karens may rethink their hatred of Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s way too early to say what new catastrophe Joe will step in next.\u00a0 He still has to clean up the Hurricane Ida debacle and who knows, with his luck cholera will break out and make everybody forget COVID.\u00a0 Or maybe the price of oil will spike and gasoline will reach ten dollars a gallon.\u00a0 Now that sounds like something that Joe can really sink his porcelain teeth into.\u00a0 I wonder who he\u2019ll blame?\u00a0 Probably Trump for not finishing that darn pipeline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
