Which reminded me of the old story of the peer who dreamt that he was making a speech in the House of Lords and woke up to find that he was (except members of the House of Lords can't order a nuclear strike).

Peak liberal democracy is when your finagled President is too demented to be a criminal.

And in 'normal circumstaces' one might look to someone taking the car keys away from Sleepy Joe for his own safety.
Unfortunately the VP who would be the obvious shoe-in is the singularly useless and unelectable Kamala Harris though nobody dare say so as she is the first African-American and first Asian-American vice president as well as being a woman.

I watched these last night so you didn't have to.
First Kamala hopes that rap music will win over middle America (Harris 1hr29m approx)
Then J D Vance with family, guns and God!

I honestly thought this was a spoof!
Patronising or what?

Well THAT was interesting. I haven’t seen the BBC this depressed since that former Hamas leader was killed!
The result has obviously annoyed all the right people.
Delicious.
