When the lies become the truth

 Anyone who pays attention to politics and the antics of our betters on the Potomac has known the truth about the Leader of the Free World -- he is an officially undiagnosed dementia patient who happens to have access to the nuclear codes. Thursday's debate performance should not have astonished anyone, but apparently people in and around the Beltway are all Claude Rains right now - shocked, shocked at the condition of Joe Biden.

It's crap, of course - everyone knew the truth, but pretending not to know the truth has been the game for a very long time now. Even when he was in the greatest command of his faculties, Joe Biden was a blowhard dullard who would lie about anyone and anything. For years he claimed the truck driver who was involved in the accident that killed his first wife and his daughter was drunk when the crash occurred. This was a lie. He claimed academic credentials he did not possess. He claimed to be a coal miner, a political protestor who was arrested in Soweto, a truck driver, a denizen of black and Puerto Rican churches. He used the words and life story of the British politician Neil Kinnock in a stump speech. All of this is known and easily available in the public record. Yet his primary political campaign message in the last two cycles has been about his truth telling how he is a better and more honorable person than his opponent, Donald Trump. And Biden's supporters parrot every word and notion put forth.

It's incredible, really. And it can't go on.

There is no way that Biden is NOT the nominee, unless he falls down the stairs (hint, hint). The virtual convention called because of the blunder of convention after the Ohio deadline will and must nominate Biden since he won all the rigged primaries. Kamala won't Amendment 25 him because she's still out praising him and it is doubtful half the cabinet would want HER as president even if she tried. Joe won't quit because he just said so, and ego and Jill won't let him.

And that is fine with me; he deserves the electoral shellacking that he SHOULD get, unless the margin for Trump fails to be greater than the cheating. Hopefully Trump carries the down-ballot with him.
