Biden Drops Out

Cue the rimshots...

Now that Joe Biden has announced his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race, the jokes are already circulating, like, for example, this rather predictable one:

Headline: Biden Pulls Out (like his father should have).

Let me make it very clear that I would never actually tell these jokes; I merely repeat them in order to show just how very tasteless, insensitive and politically incorrect some people can be.

• Biden had to drop out: After failing to hide his dementia and failing to have Trump killed, he was out of options.

• The Democrats decided Joe had to go when the latest polls showed that in order to defeat Trump, Biden would need at least twice as many fake ballots as last time.

• A would-be assassin took a shot at Joe Biden, but missed his brain by about six years.

• So, Biden has dropped out of the presidential race and will likely be replaced by Kamala Harris. It’s sort of like a tag team match in which you’re fighting a staggering, senile old geezer and he tags a crazy, cackling bag lady to relieve him.

• What will Joe Biden do now? He’s looking forward to spending more time drooling all over himself and staring blankly into space.

• The Democrats in Congress will give Biden a five-minute standing ovation, and about halfway through it Biden will have forgotten what it’s for.

• All the leading Democrats should have a contest wherein they all jump off a cliff and see who hits the ground first.

Who do you suppose will be the winner? America.

• Biden says he can’t remember a single time when his memory failed him. He says it’s not fair that he’s being forced out of the race, and that if allowed to remain on the ballot he could easily defeat President Nixon.

• Dr. Jill denies that, upon hearing the news that Trump had been shot, Joe soiled himself. The truth is, he had already soiled himself, as he does just about every day.
