The Carcass Vs. the Buffoon

6/28/2024 Episode 91 of Blowback: Exposing Imperial Decline with special guest Greg Rosen. With Biden in an advanced stage of obvious mental disintegration, some images conveying the impression he's practically an assisted mummy, many people wondered whether Biden could survive a few minutes on his own, let alone a 90-minute debate without mumbling himself incoherently into oblivion. His clear inability to govern properly and authentically—that is, to play the role of a presidential chief executive— is raising eyebrows in some sectors of the population, even allowing for the fact that most US presidents are mere tools, from the moment they are picked by invisible oligarchic kingmakers, to execute the policies dictated by these powerful unelected interests. All of which points to insider rot of major proportions.  The answer came early in the event when Biden began to show signs of disorientation and incoherence. Although Biden didn't literally fall apart in front of the cameras, his sharp decline was impossible to deny. Billy Bob argued that the Democrats anticipated the disaster and perhaps even promoted it, and that many insiders who practically yesterday were still protesting Biden's ability to run for another term, after the debate quickly changed the tune and started talking the urgent need to find a replacement. Ian Kummer thinks that a swap is probably unlikely, that Biden's performance was not as awful as many are claiming, and that we'll get Biden as long as he doesn't drop dead in the interim.
