Opinion: Joe Biden Wandering Away from the Podium Is A Powerful Statement On Quiet, Dignified Leadership

A few days ago, President Joe Biden moseyed away from his podium while speaking to a group of FEMA workers. As he did so, worried aides and officials stifled their panic enough to keep their voices steady, trying to beckon him back where he was still needed. At that moment, we saw what we have so often seen from our President: independence of thought and courage in an atmosphere of quiet, dignified leadership.

They say the best way to start an Op-Ed is by quoting the dictionary, and the Mirriam-Webster dictionary defines “dignity” as “formal reserve or seriousness of manner, appearance, or language” – something we continue to see from President Biden. Falling into a standing coma and walking away calmly from frantic calls of “Mr. President – MR. PRESIDENT!!!” could only be described as a posture of formal reserve. Gaping around and noticing that random attendees needed handshakes could also be described as serious in manner, and the slack-jawed, wide-eyed openness to new people represents a gravitas not seen since Barack Obama.

Leadership has also probably been defined as not being aware of where you are, what you are doing, or who you are. At least that’s what the definition will be in Merriam-Webster after we request more administration-friendly definitions. According to Merriam-Webster’s future new definition, there is no better example of leadership than the blissfully ignorant, far-off stare of the President of the United States. Every day we see him meeting interesting ghosts, hallucinating that dead people are in the crowd, and being otherwise gorked out of his mind. If that’s not leadership according to Merriam-Webster’s upcoming edit, we don’t know what is.

Critics may say that our fearless President looks and sounds more lost and disoriented with each public appearance, adding that his staffers seem to be welcoming his deterioration so they can enact a more extreme agenda under the auspices of his office. To that, we have a simple answer: you’re a racist.

For some, it may be too much to accept that President Biden is the greatest leader this country has ever seen. We choose to leave those people behind in their bigotry and ignorance. As for us, we are with him to the end, whether he leads us to walk off a platform, into a wall, or into the spirit realm where the ghost of Rep. Jackie Walorski now answers Biden’s call.

The President reminds us that while quiet dignity may feel like a lost art, it is still very much alive in Joe Biden. For that, we are eternally grateful.

Gaslighting at it’s finest.

About time for the ol’ needle for pedo joe, isn’t it? Looks like they’ll keep him around till after they rig the midterms, but sometime after, sometime soon, poor joey poopypants will sadly pass away in his sleep. His former babysitter wife will stand there at the biggest state funeral in the history of mankind and look like a funeral director trying to look sad at a $200K funeral.

Look how he carries his hands in this and other videos. Watched a video the other day which stated holding the hands out in front of you is a sure sign of dementia.

As if he just announced to all the plant workers (i.e. tax slaves ) that their pay is going to be cut in half (i.e. inflation) and their health insurance cancelled (i.e. “take the clot shots, you rummies!”) just before shuffling off to humiliate Smithers (i.e. the damn fools who support him).

The Hands out in front ? It is caused by a Lifetime of shaking hands on deals and getting a little brown envelope for his troubles placed in them.
It is a bit creepy though as he searches for the palm grease

What a pathetic old fool. He is the perfect symbol of a country in sharp decline.
