I've always been a fan of the mantra...'Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it' (regardless of who said it, or the exact phrasing).

It has often been reported over the past decades that Ronald Reagan was not fully in control of his faculties by the time he left office in 1989. As much as I loved Reagan as a president, I have to agree that towards the end of his 2nd term he did disappear from the public eye and was increasingly less vocal in the media and just in general. This caused me great concern back then; if some sort of dynamic world event had taken place I worried he might not have been able to deal with it.

Now we have a president who has conducted his entire term as president in much the same way as Reagan did in the waning years of his final term. I'm sorry, but I don't care what people on the left contend, this man is not fit for office. He simply isn't. He has failed at every single thing he has attempted, he inspires no one, he's the laughing stock of the entire world and he's a danger to this republic. Period.

So, we're sitting here, all of us, watching history repeat itself by failing to act. As much as I detested Jimmy Carter's policies as president, he was at least in complete control of his faculties well past his term as president, and I never doubted his resolve to act in the event of a crisis if one were to face the country. I have the exact opposite opinion of Joe Biden and his resolve to act decisively, or even act at all, in the event of a crisis. I wouldn't trust the man to safely drive me to 7-11...would you? Honestly, would you trust the lives of your children or loved ones with Joe Biden behind the wheel of a car? If the answer to this question is "no", then how can you possibly support this man 'driving' the most powerful car in the free world, this nation???

Some people think I slag on Biden because I'm conservative, but that's not what this post is about. In this context, I don't think he's actually in charge of this nation, and I don't think he's capable of being charge, regardless of his desires. Candidly, I question whether he's ever been in charge of this country, but that is another post.

The bottom line here is, not only are we as a people allowing history to repeat itself by failing to learn from it, but worse some people are actually seriously contemplating supporting this man for a future term (as incomprehensible as this seems to me). Thus, not only are we failing to learn from history, but rather we are consciously perpetuating more of the same.

This is highly disturbing, and it really needs to stop.

Failed or deliberately didn't do what was right?

Because at this point, it's impossible to make that many mistakes accidentally. You'd think dems under o'biden would accidentally get something right.

Quite the opposite.

Don't be mistaken, the left knows exactly what it does.

The agenda is to rot America from within the core.

That's exactly what dems have been doing since o'buma.

Domestic enemies, through and through.

What they do is intentional and deliberate.

Listen to Yuri Bezmenov, and see the play book.
America was warned...

Watching D-Day ceremony at Omaha Beach, LIVE.

Everyone was facing forward in silence with hands over hearts...while Biden was fidgeting and looking around aimlessly...until he alone turned his back during the playing of taps.
Jill saw him doing this and turned as well.
Everyone else was still lined up, silently at attention, facing the opposite direction.

Very well-written and articulated post and I agree 100%! Sorry I don't have anything to add.

Watched it too. Biden should stand down, he's clearly not well. But, I thought he gave a good speech, to be fair.

It was awkward, right?
Thank goodness they took his watch away so he wouldn't keep looking at it.

It is.
I've seen it with my grandmother.
We had to take away her nuclear launch codes.

very troubling how this country seems to be controlled by a tiny handful of incompetents.

Does anyone think Joe Biden represents the will of the people?

Carter you can just tell is a nice guy. Biden on the other hand. I dont see him doing many positive things for society. At least Jimmy had Habitat for Humanity and didn't he put solar panels on the white house hehe? I mean its something.

big difference is Regan had surrounded himself with people that loved the country and tried to do what was right.

Biden surrounded himself with people trying to squeeze the last bit of cash out of the US before the ship sinks.

Even further to the point of the OP! Joe Biden didn't even start out of the gate standing up. He's been compromised since before the beginning of his term. No one in their right mind would have chosen Harris as their running mate, but then again, just further proof...Joe Biden wasn't in his right mind.

Now, some might argue Biden himself is just a puppet, that he had no choices of his own. And, if that's true then we are far worse off than any elections will ever 'fix'.

That’s pretty funny.

But even if Biden completely snapped, the only thing he could launch by himself is a load into his diaper.
There’s probably 3 or 4 military staff officers that would put the kibosh on anything except a real and known emergency.

He couldn’t do it by himself, just like everyone told the insane Liberals that said Trump would launch from the bathroom at 3AM.

Yeah he's real competent and on point 🤣

He’s kind of right.

The threat to Democracy is the Democrats.

He's a sock for whatever Obama and Hillary want to do, ...or are told to do.

Notice Obama with the Ukraine "regime change", and now Hillary getting her wish for war with Russia just like she was pushing during the 2016 campaign trail. She went in hard on Russia then but ultimately got spanked and derailed. Trump's presidency probably prevented that quest of hers but now it's off to the races and look where we're at! War within four!! Yay!!

Do you honestly believe Joe "FJB" Biden is orchestrating all this between diaper changes and nap times? Puuuuuuuhhhhlease...🙄

He's been a front man for over 40 years! This is no different! He was glad to be tasked for being the POS he is, and perfect for the roll he is naturally playing which is a bonus for his handlers.

HOW many times over the last almost 4 years has he constantly ducked questions, been outright shielded by staffers that dismiss the press, or how he has stated multiple times that he gets into trouble for remaining at the podium to answer questions!

You're the fkn president and you speak as if your an 8 year old who accidentally said a bad word.

This is COMPLETE BS and it's leading us into utter ruin and death.

The amount of apathy exhibited by the overall population really makes me think the fluoride actually worked.

Very candidly, the process is actually quite complex and, as you note, much more than just pushing a button.

This is the kind of thing which prompted the OP, exactly that process. There are several key components to the process, and each one of these steps involves absolute verification of identity, a crystal clear understanding of what the process is, and a laser beam focused attention with unmistakable communication. A failure along any one of those steps will abort any sort of strike or counterstrike.

I personally doubt Joe Biden has the mental acuity, focus and communication abilities to accomplish this task. Therefore, the World's entire MAD doctrine is seriously at risk! Biden is not just risking this country, he's a risk to the entire planet. Someone 'else' can't just pick up the phone and say Biden's busy "...but what the President really meant to say was this...", because that ain't gonna' work, not in that circumstance. I mean this in all seriousness too. That might work at some press conference, but it's not going to work when all humanity hangs in the balance.

When I said I wasn't just writing some anti-Biden hit piece in the OP, I was being deadly serious! We are ALL in grave danger with him at the helm.
