Either Biden Is An ‘Elderly Man With A Poor Memory,’ Or He Needs To Be Charged

As expected, the panel on “Morning Joe” spent today attacking the devastating special counsel report into Joe Biden’s decades-long hoarding of classified documents. One of the arguments made by John Heilemann and others was that the special counsel could have written the report without referring to Biden as an “elderly man with poor memory.”
But he couldn’t have, right? Because then Hur would have been compelled to recommend charges against the president. There is no third choice. Biden can only skate, according to the special counsel, because he’s too feeble-minded to be convicted.
As if to punctuate Hur’s conclusion, Biden inexplicably decided to have a press conference last night. It was easily the most disastrous of his presidency. The normally cocooned Biden angrily responded to journalists who were giving him a chance to dispel the findings of a DOJ report. Then, Biden referred to Egyptian President El-Sisi with a Mexican, which wouldn’t have been as big a deal (he does this sort of thing all the time) if the presser hadn’t been orchestrated to demonstrate his alleged mental acuity.
It shouldn’t be overlooked, either, that Biden was cognizant enough to blatantly lie, first about not sharing classified material with a ghostwriter and then about not having “highly classified” documents in his possession. According to the Hur report, Biden showed classified documents to the writer of “Promise Me, Dad” and stored “top secret” documents regarding Afghanistan in boxes in his Delaware garage. You remember those leaked pictures of folders marked classified splayed across the floor at Mar-a-Lago?
