The Biden Binky

 

They'll be handing these out to liberals for the next four years. After all the stress of the Trump years (much of it self-induced), liberals will be able to go back to sleep as Joe Biden returns the Empire to the project of militarism and neo-liberal imperialism.

What a relief it must be to stick the Biden binky in your mouth and believe that, with a Democrat in the White House, all is well with the world.

 

 
 

There Is No "Soft Coup"

Donald Trump's refusal to concede the election of 2020 is irrelevant. The certification of the results in Joe Biden's favor will serve as his eviction notice from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. 

There is no "soft coup" in the offing; just Trump's usual bad manners.

Joe Blunder

 

Because of his leadership style (for lack of a better term), Donald Trump has made the 2020 election a referendum on himself. If Trump is repudiated on November 3rd, Joe Biden--a man who hardly campaigned for the office--will be sworn in as the 46th President of the United States. He will fill the role of "any functioning adult"--like one of the Vice-Presidents who succeeded a President who died in office. So he could turn out to be memorable like Theodore Roosevelt, Harry Truman, or LBJ. Then again, he could be easily forgotten like John Tyler, Millard Fillmore, or Andrew Johnson. But first things first: if Trump is not repudiated, Biden will be just another footnote in a long line of Democratic Party blunders. 

It is important to note, as well, that "being memorable" is not necessarily a good thing: We remember Truman for dropping the atomic bombs on Japan and LBJ for his escalation of the war on Vietnam. Joe Biden has never seen a war he didn't like or vote for. That's not likely to change.
