So it came to pass that following ‘debate-gate’ in which poor Joe Biden forgot where he was, what he was doing or how to get away, there have been growing calls for his withdrawal from the presidential election. Several leading democrats have now spoken the unspeakable and suggested that Biden step down because, basically, he’s unfit to stand, let alone to govern for 4 more years. And each democrat who speaks out gets, pretty much, duly ignored. Only Biden can sack himself, fall on his sword, he can’t really be ‘sacked’ because he’s been elected by his own party to stand against Trump.

Then yesterday the game changed. Because yesterday, the suggestion that Biden pull out came from, not just politicians, not mere senators and congressmen and state governors or other generally clever and engaged people, no. Yesterday’s call came from George Clooney.

George Clooney!!!! Yes, George Clooney. So this is something that now has to be taken seriously. When the politicos fail, you need an actor to take control. And George knows because he’s actually played a president or two in his career. He didn’t just go from ER to Oceans 11 automatically, ya know? He’s never played a President with incipient dementia, specifically, but the point is: he COULD.

And in this instance, George Clooney, or ‘Jordan Cloobey’ as Biden calls him, is not just a mere thesp. He’s not only an interfering, virtue-signalling, do-gooding all round mouthpiece for virtually any fairly liberal cause which gives him and Mrs Clooney a good photo-op. He’s also a big-time Democrat fund-raiser. So when George speaks, the whole fucking party sits up and takes note. Because you can’t run an election campaign on steam. It takes billions of dollars. Which is fine for Trump, he’ll just steal them from the tax-man, from his investors or rob a bank if he has to, now he has almost total ‘immunity’. Whereas Biden is constrained. Which is not the same as being restrained, that’ll come a bit later.

So to get this straight, the President of the most powerful nation on Earth doesn’t know Zelenski from Putin. Thinks Kamala Harris is Donald Trump and only chooses not to believe in Santa Claus because he ‘knows’ its just Kermit the Frog wearing a beard. And the only person powerful enough to stop this man running for re-election is a third-rate actor who is America’s equivalent to Gary Lineker on the scale of handsome/moronic.

Glad I’ve cleared that up.

Happy Friday
