LOS ANGELES.–Exhumed from his press blackout from retirement, 82-year-old former President Joe Biden returned to the headlines to slam 78-year-old President Donald Trump for appeasing 72-year-old Russian President Vladimir Putin. After the fake news admitting over the last several months that it covered up Biden’s dementia, he’s now taken out of mothballs to rip Trump in the press for trying to resolve the Ukraine War. “What the hell’s going on here? What president ever talks like that,” Biden said, it response to a question about Trump saying he wanted to take over Panama, Greenland and make Canada the 51st state. “That’s not who we are. We’re about freedom, democracy, opportunity, not abou confiscation,” Biden told the BBC’s Nick Robertson. Turing Biden loose with his known dementia to blast Trump is a classic fake news tactic, this time taking advantage of Biden.
Biden told Robertson he gave Ukraine everything it needed to maintain their independence from the Russian Federation, in terms of cash-and-arms. Biden wanted to keep paying for proxy war against the Kremlin, spending billions on arms and to keep the Kiev government solvent. Biden ended decades of diplomacy, détente, arms control and global cooperation with the Russian Federation. Biden turned a global partner into a mortal enemy. Putin got serious about the Ukraine War when he realized it was funded by Washington with the intent of toppling Putin’s Kremlin government. “It is modern-day appeasement,” Biden called Trump’s foreign policy, referring to British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain who acquiesced to Hitler before WW II. Biden’s analogies show that he had every excuse for his failed proxy war strategy in Ukraine.
Biden dementia puts him into a demented mental state where he actually thought he was protecting Ukraine and Europe against Putin, the new Hitler on the block. Biden showed the BBC how dangerous it is to interview someone with known cognitive impairments, asking them to give his twisted logic for backing war with the Kremlin. Biden and Ukraine’s 47-year-old President had every excuse under the sun to keep a proxy war going with the Kremlin, no matter how much it destroyed Ukraine. Biden was proud of funding proxy war with the Kremlin, despite destroying Ukraine’s infrastructure, killing thousands, exiling millions and losing some 25% of Ukraine’s best sovereign territory over three years of war. Biden said he gave Ukraine everything it needed to battle the Russian Federation yet, after over three years of war, Zelensky lost Ukraine’s best sovereign territory.
Biden now calls it “appeasement” to settle a conflict he created by failing to heed Russian warnings before the Feb. 24, 2022 invasion by arming Ukraine to the teeth on the Russian border. Putin begged Biden for months leading up to the invasion to sit down and discuss new security arrangements for Ukraine. Biden refused, kept arming Ukraine over Kremlin’s objections and provoked Putin’s invasion. But after Putin invaded, Biden said repeatedly that the war was “unprovoked and unjustified.” “I just don’t understand how people think that if we allow a dictator, a thug, to decide he’s going to take significant portions of land that aren’t his, that that’s going to satisfy him,” Biden said about Putin. “I don’t quite understand,” Biden said, showing he thoroughly confused. Calling Putin is thug symbolizes Biden’s belligerent, warmongering foreign policy.
Allowing Biden to be interviewed by journalists that have an ax to grind against Trump is flagrantly irresponsible. Biden got the U.S. into a war with the Kremlin, one of the worst foreign policy blunders in U.S. history. Biden can play like he’s holding the line against a Hitler-like dictator but it’s pure fantasy, completely distorted picture of what happened. Asking Biden to comment about Trump is like going to nursing home to get foreign policy. How irresponsible of Nick Robertson and the BBC to set Biden up because of his known cognitive impairments. How’s Biden supposed to respond other that mirroring the same egregious anti-Trump bias that exists in the BBC but, more importantly, in British political circles. Robertson set Biden up and got exactly what he wanted, an anti-Trump rant showing for all to see Biden’s dementia, pushing the European Continent to WW III or nuclear war.
Biden is all sour grapes after his 2024 was sabotaged by the Democrat Party saying Biden was not fit to run for a second term. Democrat activist and donor George Clooney got the ball rolling writing an oped in the New York Times July 2, 2024 saying Biden was not fit for a second term. It took a month of arm wrestling by former President Barack Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) to force Biden out of the race. What does BBC and Nick Robertson think they’re doing exploiting Biden’s cognitive impairments to advance their anti-Trump agenda. “We left at a time when we had a good candidate. Things moved so quickly that it made it difficult to walk away,” Biden said. And it was as hard decision. It think it was the right decision. It think than . . it was just a difficult decision,” Biden told Robertson about why he dropped out of the 2024 race.
