The Democrats all got the weekly email. By Democrats, I mean the politicians and the media. They all get a weekly edict from somebody, probably the same mysterious person who is actually running the country. Remember Obama saying he would love a third term where he would have a puppet President with an earpiece and do and say everything Barack Obama wanted? Joe Biden is definitely that puppet, but we are unsure whose voice he listens to through that magical earpiece. At this point, it doesn’t matter, for the puppet, Joe, is entirely out of commission. We are unsure when Joe checked out or, for that matter, if he ever checked in.
The memos vary weekly and are designed to keep everyone on the same page, using the same buzzwords. That is why you can watch Karine Jean-Pierre, John Kirby, Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid, or Mika Brzezinski, and they all sing from the same songbook. This week, the Left Messaging Machine was hard at work trying to drive a wedge between Donald Trump and his closet confidant, Elon Musk. They are working on the premise that they can use Trump’s ego to believe that Musk is overstepping his bounds and is acting like the man in charge. They are even going so far as to call Elon Musk President Musk. This tactic may have worked in 2016 but not in 2024. Trump is a new, calmer, and more confident version of Donald Trump. After all of the impeachments, indictments, and even assassination attempts, it takes much more than the media to ruffle him.
It has been painfully obvious for some time that Joe Biden was not in control of his mental, and physical, properties. He has been a part-time president working short weeks and even shorter days. When he addressed the people, you never knew whether you would get a coherent message or a garbled word salad. Since the election, Biden has been pretty much off the grid. He is making very few public appearances, and his staff is more comfortable getting him out of the country where he can be under the radar, and there are no briefings if the President is out of the country. That is a relief as we do not have to endure KJP, the most disingenuous press secretary ever. She is a lie machine, but worse; she will never give you a straight answer but deflect to other agencies. She wants all the credit for Biden without the accountability.
The Left is apoplectic about the level of control Trump has taken since the election. He has acted like the President and has been treated as such by business people and foreign leaders. Just look at the celebration of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, the reaction to potential tariffs from Canada and Mexico. Trump saw a void in leadership and filled it. The Left should direct their angst at Biden, who has checked out early and gave Trump the inside lane. Trump will not take the oath until January 20, but the reality is that he has already assumed the role. He is ready and has his team focused, and we should see the most productive first year in history. The Left may be upset, but the Right is thrilled.
