Joe Biden has been president-in-name-only since he was inaugurated

As if his disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan and refusal ever to acknowledge responsibility weren’t bad enough, now we learn that Joe Biden forced grieving military families to wait for hours on the tarmac of Dover Air Force Base while he took a nap on Air Force One.
We already knew that he had continually checked his watch and talked about himself when he met the relatives of 13 military members killed by a suicide bomber during the chaotic evacuation from Kabul in August 2021.
But this new report adds an extra layer of callousness to the story.
Biden has long been renowned for being late for everything, well before the onset of his cognitive decline. World leaders at the G20 summit last month finally tired of waiting and took their group photo without him.
If anything said “lame duck,” it was their contemptuous disregard for the so-called leader of the free world.
But Biden, 82, has been a lame duck his entire presidency. The thoughtless three-hour delay of the dignified transfer ceremony at Dover is simply emblematic of his reign.
