Joe Biden is the American Leonid Brezhnev
Given how much the overall trajectory of USA in the past decade has come to resemble USSR after 1973, it is very fitting that the current president of this country, Joe Biden, has a lot in common with Brezhnev. Both were mediocre but otherwise acceptable political leaders who ended up leading dying empires in visible decline. Both experienced serious physical and mental deterioration in their final years and became the symbolic figureheads for groups of insiders who were unwilling and unable to reform a sclerotic and deeply malfunctional system.
Democrats Apparently Want Trump to Win the 2024 Presidential Election
On the other side, you have Trump, whose popularity has been unaffected in spite of numerous attempts by Biden’s DOJ to convict him through numerous laughably bad court cases which are prosecuted by incompetent and corrupt DEI hires. The blame for this failed attempt to assassinate him will be almost certainly stick to the Democratic party and its rank and file of “leaders”. Given what happened today, on 13th July 2024, it is fair to say the rest of country is going to see Democrats as the real hand behind this failed assassination.
Could ‘The Simpsons’ Have Remained Relatively Fresh and Relevant?
Complex and nuanced characters became simplistic caricatures who spouted a few famous catchphrases, acted in stereotyped ways and generally stopped displaying any ability to introspect. The plots of the shows became increasingly outrageous and ridiculous, not unlike what can be seen with the plague of superhero movies over the past decade. All those guest appearances by celebrities did not help either. The show went from what was arguably the best adult cartoon show to an empty carnival spectacle with lots of flash but no substance.
Enjoy!
