President Joe Biden stumbled through yet another speech, this time from the Oval Office, in a stunning display of incompetence that left Americans scratching their heads. In a classic Biden move, he urged the nation to settle their political differences at the “battle box” instead of the “ballot box.” One can only wonder if he knows the difference between voting and violent confrontation.
During his address, Biden failed to provide any new information about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, conveniently glossing over the fact that it was a former local fire chief who lost his life, not to mention the two others who were injured. But hey, who needs facts when you can push a narrative?
Despite the gravity of the situation, Biden couldn’t resist taking a swipe at Trump, painting him as a would-be “dictator” and a danger to democracy. It seems irony is lost on the current administration, as Biden conveniently forgot to mention the violent riots perpetrated by left-wing groups like Black Lives Matter in 2020.
Yeah, Senile Joe's brain has gone bye bye and it's not coming back. Battle box? Really?https://t.co/9x2lLyUKwR

In a feeble attempt to seem presidential, Biden tried to shift the focus away from the assassination attempt and onto political unity. But let’s not forget that just moments before the shooting, his own campaign was busy demonizing Trump. Hypocrisy, thy name is Biden.
As the Republican National Convention loomed on the horizon, Biden’s timing for the address was suspect at best. Perhaps it was an attempt to overshadow Trump before the media circus of the convention kicked off. Or maybe Biden just wanted to reassure his supporters that he’s still capable of functioning as president despite mounting pressure for him to step down after his disastrous debate performance.
Ultimately, Biden’s address was just another reminder of the lackluster leadership plaguing the country. One can only hope that Americans will see through the smoke and mirrors and demand better from those who claim to represent them.
