It’s been a long four years, a quartet of anni horribiles that saw America suffering under the alleged reign of a kleptocratic human eggplant and his commie handlers. These degenerates ruined the economy, castrated our military and thousands of autistic kids with Munchhausen mommies, made America a global punchline/punching bag, and – thankfully with the same sub-competence they brought to everything else they did – attempted to turn us into a police state. But the sun will come out again on January 20, 2025. Our long national nightmare will end as Joe Biden wanders off aimlessly to run out the clock in Delawarever chasing squirrels and watching “Matlock” while President Donald J. Trump goes the full Grover Cleveland and becomes the 47th President of the United States of America.
Biden leaves a legacy of book-ended failures, starting with the disgraceful, bloody rout in Afghanistan and climaxing with the fires in Los Angeles. He was an unmitigated disaster. Everything for the last four years has sucked.
But it was not an accident. It was entirely predictable and was, in fact, predicted. Conservatives called it. We knew the regime media narrative was all a lie and a scam. Biden promised us a return to normalcy, and what we got was government by weirdos. We had perverts who steal luggage in charge of nuclear secrets, men pretending to be women running public health, and a Secretary of Defense who would vanish for long periods without explanation, and when he was there, he was apparently taking drugs that made him even more unable to do the job that he couldn’t do sober. We got pushed around by Houthis, mocked by Vladimir Putin, and had the Chi-Coms infiltrate our computers and steal our tech while snatching away our hegemony over the Pacific. Today, you have to take out a hard-money mortgage to buy eggs. A single-family house for someone who is not a millionaire? Forget it. That’s the legacy of Joe Biden. The guy can’t even rise to the level of malaise. At least Jimmy Carter managed to live long enough to see himself become the second-worst president of the last century.

But that’s all over now. Barack Obama started this human centipede, and Trump broke the last link in that chain last November. Oh, they tried to keep the avalanche of fail going. Do you remember how Kamala Harris was going to finish what Obama started and Biden tried to continue? Do you remember Brat and Joy? That’s all gone. All their pinko dreams are dead.
The Democrats are listless and lost, bitter and broken. What can they do in the face of their repudiation? They’re giving whining and shrieking a shot. Look at the attempt to stop Donald Trump’s nominees. Kirsten Gillibrand reported Pete Hegseth to the manager. Big Chief Elizabeth Warren went on the warpath. And Mazie Hirono, who’s stupid even for a senator, read Pete Hegseth a bizarre litany of questions about whether he wants to impregnate a fat retarded Hawaiian woman – I just wish he had responded, “Senator, did you say ‘fat’? Well, then, no.”
Biden is not just leaving the White House in disgrace but he left his party in tatters. Who’s on the Democrat bench now? Kamala Harris? Yeah, no. How about Gavin Newsom? That nitwit has completely screwed up the disaster in Los Angeles. Who’s left for the Democrats? Is Pete “What, me worry?” Buttigieg going to save the day? But it’s not fair to blame Biden for the total disaster that is his own party. His own party has done a pretty good job of screwing up on its own. They are disorganized. They are confused. They are totally trapped within the paradigm of their bizarre commie constituents, forced to sell a product no one wants to buy.
How did we get Trump? Democrats are why we got Trump. But let’s give a little credit to some Republicans. The squish Republicans are also how we got Trump. They are learning their lesson. Trump is imposing his iron discipline. Remember how Joni Ernst publicly played Hamlet over Hegseth, and then the conservative world looked at her and realized she was Ethanol Romney? Oops. Now she’s not just supporting him, she’s practically getting matching tats. Trump is bending the Noodle Caucus to his will with a whip, a chair, and X.
With Trump coming back, people are feeling groovy. Our prevailing vibe is one of relief – relief that this dark age of the aged chief exec is finally finished. The notion that we can start fresh again with competency in place of ideological idiocy, and DEI disasters is comforting. We’re sick of failure and the excuses to cover it up. We’re sick of the regime media running interference for politicians who think it’s more important to be clinking glasses in Ghana with Third World potentates than making sure their city doesn’t burn down. We’re tired of nothing working. We’re tired of reverse discrimination. We’re tired of washing machines that don’t wash. We’re tired of people telling us we can’t have paper bags to take our priceless groceries home. We’re tired of everything being worse than it used to be. We’re tired of losing.
Last November, America said it wanted to give winning a chance. And now we’ve got that chance.
The next four years' watchword will be “competence.” It’s going to be about getting things done. This is about improving the lives of normal people, not making them suffer for the benefit and laughs of the rich and powerful. It’s not going to be easy. It’s not going to be smooth. But it will be awesome, and as the left cries out in impotent rage, it will be funny as hell.
