A new poll was released yesterday showing 50 per cent of Americans don’t think President Biden is in good health. Turns out: they are right, with the country’s oldest ever Commander-in-Chief today forced to transfer power to his deputy while he is under anesthesia getting a colonoscopy. That means, for a ‘brief period of time’ the leader of the free world will be none other than Biden’s bungling running-mate… Vice President Kamala Harris.
Officials have been keen to stress that the arrangement has a precedent from the Bush-Cheney years when the former underwent the same operation in 2002 and 2007. Donald Trump meanwhile was alleged to have refused anesthesia when he had the same procedure in 2019, so concerned was he about transferring power to Mike Pence – perhaps understandably in light of the establishment’s efforts to undermine him.
