Democratic presidential candidate Sleepy Joe Biden might
have pulled a partial Rip Van Winkle. He recently told a crowd of fundraisers
in Columbia, South Carolina, that Margaret
Thatcher is concerned about the United States under President Trump. Bloomberg News reported that Biden
listed Thatcher as one of 14 heads of state who he claimed have told him of
their worries
about the president.
Thatcher
is not worried about Trump. She’s not worried about anything. She is, in fact,
at peace. Largely because she’s dead and has been for six years. “Tot” as the
Germans say. She resigned as Prime Minister a mere 29 years ago, so it’s easy
to understand Biden’s little faux pas.
According
to Bloomberg News, Biden eventually corrected himself, telling the assembled
donors he meant to say British Prime Minister Theresa May, who has been Prime Minister since 2016. Biden said the
error was a “Freudian slip.” Perhaps he had a thing for Margaret, despite their
political differences and the fact that she
was actually competent. And perhaps the 14 heads of state should be concerned
that Biden might become president.
Biden went
on to remark that he himself was concerned about Trump’s “recent lengthy phone
call with Stalin,” while noting that he was puzzled why the president was sending
a carrier group towards Iran, “given the fact that the Shah is our ally.”
Biden,
always a fresh and radical thinker, has hit on a campaign slogan for his
presidential run: “Make America Moral Again.” (Hmm. That sounds vaguely
familiar, though). Look for “MAMA” hats to be available at stores near you
soon!
Sleepy Joe says if he had to choose a
nick-name for President Trump it would be “clown.” That may be a case of
projection. Biden is already acting the part of court jester.
Funny!
