Biden, as a student of history is just using Napoleon’s advice

I'll take the clown over the dictator every time. The clown is garishly transparent, and leaves you free to watch and listen, be a sucker or enjoy the outlandish mask that can only be seen, except by the most ignorant, childish, imbecile, as a mask not as the true face. Entertainment can require a WILLING suspension of disbelief. The clown offers you a moment of relief from worldly care, of laughter rather than fear. The clown gives you a momentary escape from the demands of society.

The dictator offers no option to his edict. He requires obeyance more than belief. He demands compliance, not relief from it. He allows no escape.

True, the Progressives are not clowns. They don't offer escape from reality so much as they create the reality you must permanently inhabit and always conform to.

Right, right. Biden's not in hiding because he can't string a coherent sentence together. He's actually being shrewd by staying silent and in hiding! Of course!

In all seriousness, can you answer ONE question honestly, without saying whatever helps your cause? Just one question?

Here it is...are you worried about Biden in the debates? Worried he'll come across as obviously in the early stages of senility?

I’m not, because regardless Trump will show his true colors and that of course is what most Americans are really tired of.

Jim you cant suggest Biden debate Trump or how many times . Republicans forfeited that ability when they all defend and still defend Trump for not releasing his taxes.. and just say senility 3 times doesn't make it so...

And this is why we have Vice presidents , and right now I'd rather see Pence in the oval office at least he's Republican
