    Ask yourself this simple question, “DO YOU THINK THAT OBUMA OR SLEEPY JOE BIDEN COULD HAVE DONE IT?” THE ANSWER IS NO!:

    lol if either one did something similar (to the event’s original plans–a party to celebrate 250), it’d be jam-packed capacity crowds, and thousands hundreds of thousands more converging on d.c. and a-list stars would be lining up to take part.

      Biden would have let the original plan go through with the Smithsonian in charge instead. It’s fucked up because Trump needed to grift and you only get Fyre Festivals from the level of grift he requires.

      He’s really sticking with “sleepy Joe” after he’s been caught sleeping on camera 4 or 5 times now? Just absolutely zero self-awareness.

        To stop now would be to concede that he has fallen asleep too. He needs to be superior. He can’t drop the charades.
