It feels like a lifetime since Joe Biden was in the Oval Office, such is the turmoil and transformation unleashed since he went home to Delaware.

But one person in Washington never stops obsessing about the 46th president — his predecessor and successor.

Donald Trump rarely appears in public without complaining about Biden’s policies or flinging an insult at his mental or physical capacity.

    Well, just like the old story goes.

    Guy takes over as CEO and is told by his predecessor that he left two letters for him in his desk, and he tells his successor

    “If you are ever up against the wall and don’t know what to do, read the first letter. If it ever happens again, read the 2nd letter”

    So the new CEO finds himself in a bind and reads the first letter “Blame everything on me” the letter says

    So, he blames the old man and everything blows over fine.

    Later, he finds himself in a real mess. Feeling reassured, he pulls out the 2nd letter and reads it, and it says…

    “Sit down, write two letters.”

    Trump’s been riding that first letter pretty hard. He needs to sit down and write two letters.

    Must suck for him that he’s illiterate

      No but Biden helped boost the economy on a long recovery after Covid, set us up for the future with a huge investment in long neglected infrastructure, and gave us hope for domestic manufacturing by investing in upcoming technologies.

      You can see how Trump would want to undo that. /s
