Almost everything Joe Biden has touched since entering office has turned to dross. None of his blame-gaming, none of his distortions, none of his fantasies and unreality can mask that truth. The Afghan Catastrophe - Seven months ago, Afghanistan was relatively quiet—with about 10,000 vestigial NATO troops, including 2,500 Americans, anchored by the Bagram Airfield. They were able to provide air superiority for the coalition and Afghan national army. With air power, NATO forces, if and when they so wished, could have very slowly and gradually withdrawn all its remnant troops—but only after a prior departure of all American and European civilians, coalition contractors, and allied Afghans.

but, unfortunately, as long as the, seemingly, vast numbers of Americans continue to watch the propaganda media, the untruths of this group of incompetents will never be disclosed - they have no idea what communism REALLY is and how destructive a class adopted system it is - are they not thinking North Korea, PRC, Russia(aka Soviet Union), South Africa to name only a few.

VDH lays out one of the most insightful, succinct, and, I think, accurate portrayals of Xiden we have to date.
A combination of character flaws and dementia.
I admit to living in the DC area for a number of years, seeing him on the news etc, and thinking he wasn’t so bad. His facade was a big toothy grin and easy way, which were always on display. Not too bright and said stupid things, but harmless enough.
What was NOT always visible was the mean, very dark CORE of Joe Biden. He kept that under control, except for special occasions (Supreme Court nominees.)
I wish I had paid more attention to his core.
This article is a Must Read (and reread).

The Democrats (and their voters!) allowed Joe Biden to play “Mr. President” and it destroyed the country and nearly the entire world. They all knew ( and so did we) that he wasn’t capable but they did it anyway. Besides himself, he couldn’t have picked a more incompetent staff to assist in this playtime farce. Hope dr. Jill is happy dragging her senile husband into the White House. I’d like to hear from her….if she ever comes out of hiding and shows her face again.

In the extremely remote chance that the House drafts articles of impeachment and the Senate considers a vote for impeachment, will Biden use the insanity defense to avoid conviction? Biden’s defense team would simply have to show the numerous videos of weird Joe while noting that only an insane President would order such a disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

VDH is great and this article is almost complete. However, he leaves out one possible explanation for Biden's behavior - blackmail. Biden and Hunter have been grifting for years and it is almost impossible to prevent the recording of actions and events these days. Isn't it likely that the Chinese and/or others are pulling Joe's strings? Somebody has to have a 1,000-page-plus dossier on Lunch Box Joe.

VDH was trying to be polite by using the word "dross".

Dr. Hanson, one of America’s smartest men, skillfully slices and dices the festering corpse of of Joseph Biden, the worst fool to ever occupy the White House. This is today’s “must read.”

Had to look up the word “dross”. It means “a mass of impurities”. How appropriate!
