Joe’s Gaffes Now Matter
If he were Pinocchio his nose would be a mile long. Since he’s president, he risks starting a war.

Washington — Accuracy is making a comeback. The Plagiarist-in-Chief gave a long off-the-cuff press conference, complete with misstatements and canards, and now his listeners around the world are apprehensive that the Russians may take him at his word and launch an invasion of Ukraine. White House spokesmen have spent days walking back the Plagiarist-in-Chief’s misstatements, but he happens to be the President of the United States, and as he himself has said his words matter.
The electorate elected in 2020 a 77-year-old man with a life-long record of plagiarism, lying about his achievements (and other people’s failings), and — well, dishonesty — dishonesty in public and in private. The electorate elected him because they disliked the language of his opponent. They chose a plagiarist with a habit of telling lies — at times big lies — over a very effective president who had a habit of telling little lies. Oh yes, and that opponent, Donald Trump, has been accused of using coarse language in public and of harassing women, one of whom I have known over the years, and I found her dubious. But the Plagiarist-in-Chief has endured these charges too. At any rate, we are stuck with the Plagiarist-in-Chief until 2024, unless we are unlucky, and then we shall have Kamala Harris to deal with. Finally, our first lady president. How did we get into such a mess?
