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).

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!

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.
