This election was supposed to be Joe Biden’s last hurrah.
The old coot has been in Washington since Watergate, and it took him almost 50 years to get the one job he really wanted. He fully intended to run and win again, and his entire party backed him up. They told any and every lie necessary to make his reelection seem not only possible, but inevitable.
Then somebody talked Joe into doing a debate four months before the election.
Whoops!
The next thing he knew, all the people he thought he could trust were lining up to put dagger after dagger in his back. Including that big dummy he picked to be his veep, for reasons he probably can’t even remember.
Since then, Joe has made all the right noises about supporting Kamala’s candidacy. But lately, his actions have been telling a much different story.
Last Friday, just as Kamala was taking the stage at a campaign event in Detroit, Joe showed up in the White House briefing room for the first time ever.
If she wants voters to forget she’s been the vice president for the past four years — which she does — ol’ Joe has other ideas.
