NEO: Biden’s betrayal: “But for Michigan?”
I have long said that although it’s very clear that Joe Biden is very cognitively challenged compared to just a few years ago, he still has plenty of agency and his brain is not so far gone that he’s unaware. Plus, he was Obama’s VP from 2009 to 2017, in full possession of whatever were his native faculties, and he did Obama’s bidding on this and on just about every other topic.
So this is not some recent thing nor is it the result of his age-related cognitive problems. It’s a result of who he is: a corrupt and ambitious viper – or weasel, if you prefer – who would sell out anyone for a dime or for career advancement.
Which brings us to a famous exchange from A Man For All Seasons. No, it’s not the one I often post here, about “cutting down” the laws. It’s this one:
That’s where I got the idea for the title of this post. Biden has betrayed Israel, the Jews, the US, the West, and Congress to win the presidency (he thinks) by winning the votes of the Muslims in Michigan who would dearly love to see Israel and the Jews destroyed, and the US and the West in their current forms as well.

UPDATE: Biden 2006: Civilian Deaths Are No Reason to Demand Israel Stop Defending Itself From ‘Cowards’ Hiding Among Them. “If nothing else, pick this up at the 2:45-ish mark and watch Joe Biden then absolutely demolish the current version of Joe Biden when it comes to fighting terrorists. It’s the exact opposite of his position regarding Rafah and Hamas. Also, note how much more coherent Biden was in 2006, and compare it to his speech these days. This ain’t a ‘stutter,’ folks. It’s creeping senility.”
