    YOU ARE THE PRESIDENT. YOU ARE THE PERSON WHO DOES THE THINGS.

      I think Biden's entire reason for being president was that he wanted the pomp and circumstance of being president. And that's it. In that way he's exactly like Trump. He doen't want to make any effort at all to do anything other than get Ukraine 10s of billions of dollars of more money so their proxy war can damage the Russkies.

      Biden wants bills to fly into the White House and land on Resolute Desk. Then he can have a big signing ceremony where he can sign the fucking thing with a big pen and then hand out more big pens to all the high ranking pols and important people in the room.

        Obama was pretty similar, he would give any amount to corporations and sign off on any military operations that would allow him to give more big speeches and attend fancy dinners

          Trump wanted to watch himself be president on TV. Obama wanted to write memoirs about being president. Biden is definitely watching himself be president on TV but I don't think he knows he's the same guy.

        I think Biden’s entire reason for being president was that he wanted the pomp and circumstance of being president.

        I think he just got talked into it, and then forgot about it 5 seconds later
