- Author regrets support for Biden
- Bidens’ hospital visit criticized
- Alleged indifference to Palestinian suffering
The choreographed scene featured the First Lady and the President of the United States and was intended to convey the uplifting atmosphere of the holiday season.
A week ago, at the Children’s National Hospital in Washington, DC, Joe and Jill Biden emerged from behind a black curtain like ecstatic celebrities and took their crimson seats in front of a large Christmas tree laden with gifts and decorations.
A cluster of young patients and their parents awaited the arrival of the commander-in-chief and his spouse, who were eager to hear the widely acclaimed poem “The Night Before Christmas,” with great anticipation.
“We appreciate your invitation to visit you,” stated President Biden.
Since Bess Truman, seventy-five years ago, each First Lady has undertaken the customary yearly visit to the children’s hospital with the intention of promoting holiday joy. Biden became the initial incumbent president to accompany the group in 2022.
As the First Lady read the picture book, Biden, who looked weak but lively, smiled, waved, and grinned.
Following her address, Biden expressed gratitude to the hospital staff. “What you do is truly extraordinary.”
He bid farewell with the adage, “Wherever hope exists, life exists.”
Biden’s Contrasting Actions
Biden invited the children to return after recovering so they might help other hospitalised children during the holidays.
The Bidens’ “continuation of this annual tradition…[that] brings so much joy to all the children, their families, and our staff” was praised by a hospital representative.
“Everyone be blessed by God,” Biden remarked.
The duration of their performance was under ten minutes.
Despite its brevity, it was presumably intended to bolster “Uncle Joe’s” reputation as a compassionate president who understands all too well the anxiety, grief, and agony that accompany caring for ailing children or losing them to an unexpected violent act with catastrophic results.
As I observed the Bidens perform this superficial ceremony, accompanied by television cameras, my disdain for a deteriorating president grew. He prioritizes the well-being and lives of a select few children over others, and this sentiment intensified.
Biden has inexcusably encouraged the maiming and murder of thousands of Palestinian children, as opposed to utilising his authority and influence to attempt to halt the murdering and maiming of thousands of Palestinian children.
Biden co-architected the dystopian calamity weakening a devastated nation and people in colonial Palestine, not “joy”
The president is actively destroying hope and life in Gaza and the West Bank. Despite this, he boldly said “where there is life, there is hope.”
Truly astounding
Biden further incensed the sick by paying a visit to a hospital where he lauded the physicians and nurses attending to patients, while Israel, acting as an agent of the United States, has mercilessly destroyed, ransacked, and occupied hospitals across Gaza, as well as forcibly disappeared and murdered Palestinian physicians and nurses.
“Don’t miss out! Grab your free shares of Webull UK today!”
Furthermore, their approach and methodology were, to borrow a phrase, exceptional.
Biden and his aides’ indifference to this blatant and abhorrent juxtaposition demonstrates their misanthropic geopolitical calculus. In this calculation, the promising lives and horrific deaths of Palestinians are considered expendable and forgettable.
Evidently, the plethora of distressing images depicting Palestinian children with grimy faces bemoaning the absence of their mothers and fathers or limp, small bodies shrouded in white did not deter Biden from participating in a photo opportunity that, despite the dire circumstances and bleak atmosphere, reeked of impropriety.
The Bidens’ monumental entrance and everything it revealed about the president’s distinctive nature were realisations. This realization has been building within me since early October, like a hurricane.
I have indeed been an imbecile
I have authored columns—which I regret not being able to delete—lauding Biden as a literate, if not honourable, alternative to the anarchy and derangement personified by Donald Trump, who is illiterate and a dishonest charlatan.
In other columns, which I regrettably wish to be removed, I praised the sageness of enlightened Americans who would again choose Biden over Trump in November and spare a world in anxiety four more years of Trumpian anarchy and disorder.
There are enlightened Americans in the world. Simply put, there are not enough of them.
I criticised other, far more astute columnists, who wrote that beyond the rhetorical nuances, both Biden and Trump were elected to safeguard the domestic and international interests of the oligarchs who fund their fraudulent “democracy”—an institution fueled by war and profit exploitation.
Biden has demonstrated, on this defining score, that he is an equally dependable and practical marionette, much like his predecessor. Liberals and progressives are offended by Trump’s existing quo, not his impoliteness and vulgarity.
I have no qualms whatsoever regarding the outcome of the forthcoming presidential campaign. I have no concerns whatsoever regarding the “future” of the United States, because if the recent past is any indication, the most lethal machine in history will inevitably inflict further devastation, suffering, and death on a global scale, regardless of who assumes the presidency.
Critique on Political Landscape
In the forthcoming year, I anticipate witnessing the captivating spectacle of a nation further descend into fanaticism and discord, as a significant portion of it predictably seeks solace in loudhailer muppets (e.g., Joe Rogan and Bill Maher) as a means to navigate the imminent chasm.
Regarding muppets, many nitwits will tell me to be careful when obtaining wishes.
What could be a worse course of action? Millions of defenceless Palestinians are being subjected to genocide while dear, old Uncle Joe twiddles his knotty thumbs. You should be irritated at me for writing this “outrageous” column, not incensed by that.
In conclusion, I believe that Trump’s return to the White House would be appropriate.
After that, the idea that America is a constitutional republic, bright city on a hill, and a model will disappear.
It will be a momentous occasion on November 5, 2024, when 66
US electors endorse a career criminal as leader of a criminal dictatorship.
Therefore, everyone, happy jaundiced new year!
