My kid friends and I used to play a game we called “You Go First.” One kid would challenge another to do something stupid, like eating a worm, and say, “You go first!”
If the challenged kid was dumb enough to do it, one bite of worm was enough to convince him of his stupidity, and the guffaws of the challenger, who then refused to go second and eat a worm himself, told the worm eater that he had been well and truly had.
I was dumb about some things, but the first time I was challenged to eat a worm, my question was “How dumb do you think I am?” It ruined the game for the rest of them, but it saved me from upchucking on my overalls and gave me the reputation of being smarter than I looked.
President Biden must think he’s dealing with a bunch of stupid worm eaters, based on some of the things he’s asking us to swallow this month.
He recently said, “We must get control of our borders and I’m ready to do something.” In the last year of what I hope is his only term as president, he’s finally ready to get control of the border? He blames Republicans for the crisis of millions of illegal immigrants flowing into the US over the last three years. “They won’t pass a bill for border control,” he says, when the truth is that he won’t enforce the laws already on the books. We don’t need another bill.
Former President Trump was controlling the border by 2020, but Biden immediately undid all the controls and invited illegals in. Now pollsters are telling him that the border crisis is the number one issue in this year’s election, so he is changing his tune.
How dumb does he think we are? We know he only wants to win this year’s election, after which he’ll go back to his open border policy with all its evil outcomes because that’s what his handlers want.
It’s the same with his recent claim that he’s “backing off on advocating electric cars.” That’s not because he’s come to his senses but because he’s heard that electric cars don’t work well, their batteries don’t hold up in cold weather, and electric buses have exploded in flames in several cities. And voters don’t like them. (Of course, his own limo is a big fossil fuel-guzzling model he calls the “beast.”)
So, duh! I’m not that gullible. If Biden is re-elected, I know he’ll go right back to insisting that 67 percent of cars must be electric by 2030, whether they work or not.
This weekend, we heard that Putin critic Alexi Navalny had died in a Russian prison where he has been incarcerated for exactly that— criticizing
Russia’s leader and his harsh communist regime. Observers say that Putin definitely ordered Navalny’s murder to get rid of the opposition. The Biden administration decried the act, of course, claiming human rights violations.
How dumb do they think we are? Don’t the Democrats know we can see the same attitude here against anyone who opposes their planned destruction of the Constitution and the rights of American citizens?
The liberal justice system has thrown the book at the so-called Jan. 6 “insurrectionists” while ignoring the rioters of the summer of 2020 who didn’t want Trump. American parents have been labeled “terrorists” and investigated for insisting on their right to know what their children are being taught. Donald Trump is fighting for his life against a weaponized justice system that is trying to keep him from running for president. And they think we’re too dumb to see that a Putin-styled legal system has come into being in America!
Asked how she felt about becoming president if Biden steps down due to mental incompetency, Kamala Harris said, “I am ready to serve. There’s no question about that.”
Am I supposed to be dumb enough to eat that worm? I’m sure that by “ready,” she meant she had her power suit on, her makeup in place and her hair combed.
Our VP cannot create a sentence that makes sense. She cannot put two sentences together to make a point. So far, she seems not to know what the point of anything IS.
She certainly did not get the point of being our so-called Border Czar, since she never saw the border and did nothing to secure it. When that job title became a joke, she abdicated the throne and took the title “AI Czar.” Well, there may be hope there. Maybe she’ll pick up a little “artificial intelligence” in that job, artificial intelligence being preferable to no intelligence at all.
How dumb does she think we are? We can only hope that by “ready to serve,” she means a tennis ball or a plate of brownies.
Joe Biden may or may not have the sense to step down before the election. But before then, get ready to hear a lot of promises that he and his party don’t intend to keep.
For my part, I know better than to swallow those worms, but chow down on them yourself — if you want to be well and truly had again.
