‘Play the radio’!

It has been obvious for years that Joe Biden isn’t deaing with a full deck.

During a 2019 Democratic presidential candidate nomination debate he famously (and patronizingly) told parents to “Play the radio” to educate their children and if they won’t do it, others should do it for them.

“We bring social workers into homes and went in to do it for gem. parents to help them deal with how to raise their children. It’s not want they don’t want to help. They don’t — they don’t know quite what to do. Play the radio, make sure the television — excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night, the, the — make sure that kids hear words. A kid coming from a very poor school, a very poor background will hear 4 million words fewer spoken by the time they get there.”

Biden clearly appeared to be in a time warp. He posited radio and vinyl records as a solution to absent fathers, multi-generational poverty, etc. But Fake News gaily ignored Biden’s shortcomings in their effort to defeat Big Orange.

With the assistance of “Trump is a tool of Putin”, “Hunter Biden’s laptop is Russian disinformation” lies, widespread illegal voting, Biden won the presidency.

Then, the national destruction could really begin.

DEI, transgender championship, open borders, Green New Deal, removal of Iran sanctions, abandonment of Afghanistan, inflation, explosion of fentanyl deaths, etc., followed.

But it all began with a compromised, life-long pol from a state that never exceeded a million in population.

Last night, June 26, 2024, frail, frightened, mind-racing, Joe Biden revealed himself to the world.

He had long been cosseted, protected by his staff, party bigwigs, agencies of government but then Biden, with his typical tough guy bluster offered Trump a severely restricted pre-nomination offer to debate.

Trump immediately accepted.

Many conservative commentators warned Trump he was waking into a trap.

Trump showed up cool, calm, reasoned, reasonable, in command of the facts, his record. The CNN anchors who had spent years vilifying Trump did a fair, professional job.

America could see what some people have been saying for years.

The evidence of Biden’s incompetence was so overwhelming that within minutes, prominent Democrats hit the Twittersphere, admitting Biden cannot be their candidate.

No amount of noise will ever drown out Biden’s shocking, bug-eyed performance.

What’s next?

Mme. Fortuna predicts they will pay Kamala Harris beaucoup de bucks to cackle at some university or foundation. After all, if Biden could get a million dollars from University of Pennsylvania for doing nothing, what’s Kamala Harris’ sunset ride worth? Or she could start the Kamala Harris Foundation and solicit hundreds of millions like the Clintons. Anyone know if Kamala likes art?

Then we have Chicklet teethed, hair gelled Gavin Newsom who turned the Golden State into the highest taxed, homeless encampment in the world. He may find that the Pelosi-Silicon Valley fundraising juggernaut will fail him as more and more tech billionaires support Trump.

Democrats have no presidential candidate.

They have all been Emperor’s choristers.

They need a major house-cleaning if they are to remain a party.

In the days of visual images, their Radio Days are over.
