Kamala Harris’ defeat in the 2024 election appears to have had a positive impact on Joe Biden. He seems to be enjoying himself and is disregarding the seriousness of situations. An example of this was when he fell asleep during a diplomatic meeting in Africa.

This situation leaves me torn between finding it humorous and feeling deeply worried. It is important to remember that he still holds the authority over the nuclear codes, at least in theory.
There is a sense that Biden’s handlers have lost control over him. If they still had any influence, one would think they would keep him away from the public eye until Donald Trump’s inauguration. It is surprising that despite recent embarrassing incidents, such as the one in Africa, Biden continues to make public appearances. It seems that once a president tarnishes their legacy by pardoning their troubled offspring, the rest just seems inconsequential.
Fast-forward to Thursday, and Biden showed up for the National Christmas Tree Lighting. He could have just stood around and enjoyed the show, but the president is just way too weird for that. So he ripped his beanie off instead, leading to some hilarious pictures, and mumbled insults at the press.
As he left the National Christmas Tree lighting, @POTUS removed his stocking cap, bent over to look at the press and then asked “you’re still here?” It was very cold and windy tonight. pic.twitter.com/d2NIXTzdXM

That is a picture of a man who simply doesn’t care anymore, and I’m kind of here for it. No one has ever been a lamer duck than Joe Biden, and he embodies that every moment of the day. If that means taking a nap while the entire world is watching, he’s going to do it. If it means letting his hair plugs flap in the wind, making him look like a deranged lunatic, whatever. What does he care? Biden is a complete weirdo, and he’s got no reason to even attempt to hide it anymore.
Meanwhile, Americans are forced to hold their breath, hoping that the nation’s adversaries don’t take further advantage of the invalid in the White House. That’s what the Democratic Party has wrought, and it’s a big reason they got shellacked in the election. For once, it feels like justice has prevailed on the political front.
