Oh, what a glorious year 2024 has been for America, thanks in no small part to our fearless, geriatric leader, Joe Biden. Let’s dive into this masterpiece of journalism from USA Today, shall we?
First off, it’s utterly hilarious how the article suggests that 2024 was a bad year for decency in America. I mean, who needs decency when you’ve got a president known for his gaffe-filled speeches and his knack for putting his foot in his mouth at every turn? His track record on the world stage? Simply exemplary if you’re into watching international relations turn into a comedy show. Oh, and let’s not forget the border situation, where Biden’s policies have turned the U.S. into the world’s most welcoming doormat.
The piece dares to claim that Trump’s win was somehow a moral cost to the U.S., but really, what’s more costly than having a president who seems to think every day is opposite day? Biden’s attempt at uniting the country has been as successful as trying to herd cats with a laser pointer. His speeches at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner? A masterclass in how to not take your job seriously. It’s all fun and games until you realize that the economy, the border, and foreign policy are all punchlines in his routine.
And let’s talk about the media’s role in all this. The legacy media, those bastions of truth and objectivity, have been busy patting themselves on the back for their “serious” coverage of the campaign, while conveniently ignoring Biden’s missteps and mispronunciations. They’ve been so focused on painting Trump as the boogeyman that they’ve missed the real horror show happening in the White House. Biden’s been so press-averse that even his own party has been begging him to engage more, but hey, why bother when you can just blame everything on Trump, right?
The article’s critique of Trump’s character is rich, especially when you consider Biden’s own stellar moments like confusing world leaders and historical events. Yes, Trump might be a convicted felon, but Biden’s the guy who thinks he was vice president during the pandemic. And the media, bless their hearts, have been nothing but supportive, making sure we all see Biden in the best light possible – which, let’s be honest, isn’t very bright.
So, thank you, USA Today, for this enlightening piece that so perfectly encapsulates the state of journalism today: a blind eye to one side and a magnifying glass on the other. Here’s to hoping that 2025 brings us more of the same hilarious, face-palm-worthy moments from our current administration. After all, who needs decency when you’ve got entertainment like this?
