“Obama would be jealous.”
That’s Biden’s latest, rather preposterous claim, which apparently surfaced during the president’s interview with Special Counsel Robert Hur.
A rather interesting assertion, really, especially since Biden is ostensibly “finishing” the job that Obama began.
Obama bragged about that in one of his many highly publicized, softball media interviews, and Biden doubled down on such sentiments in a subsequent State of the Union address, resoundingly declaring, “let’s finish the job!” over and over again.
That said, Biden apparently can’t let previously unheard of bygones be bygones, as he continued to wax poetically about “jealous” Obama and his taken on Biden’s own presidential prospects, especially relative to Clinton’s.
“He just thought that she had a better shot of winning the presidency than I did. And so I hadn’t, I hadn’t, at this point – even though I’m at Penn, I hadn’t walked away from the idea that I may run for office again,” Biden babbled.
So, in other words, Obama thought Clinton would crush Trump; he was utterly wrong, and he was enraged, so he substituted Biden in 2020.
After all, Obama sure does seem to have a heavy-handed influence in the presidential candidates, as detailed by Biden himself.
Quite the influence he’s amassed for himself, in the name of “change.”
As for Biden’s claim he had been at Penn … Well, that’s a bit questionable.
“US President Joe Biden apparently lived the life of his dreams after leaving the vice-president’s office in 2016 as he kept getting handsomely paid by the University of Pennsylvania, for never teaching a class. Biden became an honorary professor at the Philadelphia School in 2017 and didn’t leave the position until becoming the president in 2021 …
However, the University of Pennsylvania granted him an unpaid leave of absence as soon as he announced the run for the presidency in 2019. As per the report, Biden was paid nearly $1 million between 2017 and 2019. He was paid $371,159 in 2017 and $540,484 in 2018 and 2019,” WION News reported.
Nice work if one can get it.
It’s rather interesting that Biden was apparently competent enough to receive nearly $1M from an Ivy League school in recent years, yet a Department of Justice report suggests Biden is too mentally frail to face consequences for the classified documents scandal.
How does that work out?
Of course, Special Counsel Hur had a ready, if unconvincing, explanation available, declaring that “several material distinctions” between the respective classified documents cases of Biden and Trump.
Ah, but of course. As always.
“Given Mr. Biden’s limited precision and recall during his interviews with his ghostwriter and with our office, jurors may hesitate to place too much evidentiary weight on a single eight-word utterance to his ghostwriter about finding classified documents in Virginia, in the absence of other, more direct evidence …
We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” Hur declared in his DOJ report.
Apparently, he has enough of a “memory” to score nearly $1M from an Ivy League school in all of two years.
Then he hilariously “forgives” billions of dollars’ worth of student loans, much of which was driven by outrageous salaries like his in the first place, conveniently ignoring the Supreme Court ruling.
If Biden were a bit more with it, one almost might think he was taking a swipe at Obama in one statement to Hur during the investigation.
“Every president before me has done the exact same thing,” Biden remarked.
You don’t say.
Obama sure has amassed quite the massive personal fortune, which is leagues above most former American public servants’ living standards … Obama’s appear more fit for a king.
Perhaps the real “change” he has long intended.
