For God's Sake Will You Republicans Please Let Joe Biden Enjoy His Ice Cream

 Thursday February 29th, 2024

My Dear America:

It constantly amazes me that regardless of what kind of horrible behavior that Joe Biden is forced to tolerate from Republicans in Congress and on the Supreme Court that he continues to be generally optimistic and relatively serene in going about his daily duties and responsibilities.  I am thankful every day that Joe Biden won the Presidential Election fairly and squarely in November of 2020 and remains our President.  I can't say for sure whether Joe Biden is the best President of all time.  I don't know enough about all of the Presidents we have had.  What I do know is that he is far and away one of the most effective Presidents we have had in my lifetime of paying attention to Politics.  And I do know that his predecessor, Donald Trump has to either be, or at least be in the running for "THE WORST PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME."

I remember being really impressed on Inauguration day 2021 that Biden, even with all he had to do on that day, had stacks of documents that he needed to sign right away to deal with problems that Donald Trump had either not dealt with or had created.  

Throughout his term in the Presidency Joe Biden has continued to work hard, along with his excellent team, not to grandstand and create problems like Trump did but to solve problems that needed solving.  I sometimes think about just how different Biden and Trump are and what a nightmare it would have been if Donald Trump had been elected instead of Joe Biden.  Quite Frankly, its too scary to think about Trump being back in the White House.

Unfortunately, the incredibly frightening prospect of Donald Trump returning to the White House needs to be considered daily until we finally Re Elect Joe Biden for another term as our President.

I don't know why we are so lucky to have Gentleman Joe willing and able to stick with us and to run for another term.  I'm sure there are times that he wishes that he could just ditch all of the Republican Bullshit and go retire to his Rehoboth Beach Home and just relax and take a walk along the beach at sunset every day of his life. 

All I know is that I and a lot of other Democrats appreciate what Biden has done  for us and continues to do for us as he has accomplished and continues to accomplish so much not for himself but for the American people.

I really enjoyed seeing him show up on Seth Myers Late Night Show this past week to celebrate Seth's 10 Year Anniversary on the air.  Joe was actually on Seth's First Show 10 Years ago.  Joe seemed to be relaxed and having fun with Myers and even went downstairs after the show was over and got an Ice Cream Cone.

Of Course the Lunatics at Fox News and other Right Wing Nuts went crazy over Biden eating Ice Cream like there was something wrong with it.  Biden was so relaxed in the Ice Cram Shop that he answered a question about a Cease Fire in Gaza optimistically and of course, took shit for that.

Jesus, Give the guy a break.  All Right Wing news ever does is Trash Joe every day like he is always doing something wrong when the truth is that he is always doing something right.

All the Republicans in the House of Representatives ever do is try to pull the rug out from Joe Biden every chance they get.  They insisted that if Biden wanted to get money for Ukraine and Israel he had to fix the Border according to their demands.  Senator Lankford and Senators Murphy and Sinema worked out a reasonably good Bipartisan Plan and it looked like it was a done deal.

That was until Donald Trump weighed in on it and told House Republicans to kill the Bipartisan Border Bill because he did not want Joe Biden to get a win.  Trump, not giving a shit about the consequences of killing the Border Bill, just wanted to keep the Border screwed up so that he could blame Biden for the problem.  

At this point, however, I think it is obvious to anyone paying attention to this situation that Biden is not to blame for this Border Boondoggle.  Once again Donald Trump has shown his lack of concern for America and his willingness to shaft America and Americans if it serves his self interest.

I just hope that Voters in November of this year will not forget which Presidential Candidate has the interests of America and Americans on their minds and which Candidate couldn't give a damn about them. 

In the meantime, Joe, Please keep up the good work.  You have accomplished a lot and it seems as though you have a lot more to do.  Don't let yourself become discouraged by Republicans.  Please know that there are a lot of us out here who appreciate you and will be in your corner in November. 

Sincerely Yours

Jerry Gallagher
