In his characteristically clumsy fashion, Old Joe Biden has revealed that former President Jimmy Carter has bestowed upon him a singular honor: “He asked me to do his eulogy — excuse me, I shouldn’t say that,” Biden said at a fundraiser in Rancho Santa Fe, California on Tuesday.
When that day arrives, no matter how poorly Old Joe delivers what is certain to be a farrago of lies, half-truths, historical revisionism, and self-serving distortion, there will be a certain fitting aspect to the entire occasion: the previous holder of the title of Worst President in American History will be eulogized by the current holder of the title.
“I spent time with Jimmy Carter,” said Biden of his predecessor in failure, malaise, and an outstandingly unjustified self-image, “and it’s finally caught up with him.” Carter is 98 years old and has entered into hospice care. “But they found a way to keep him going for a lot longer than they anticipated,” Old Joe continued, “because they found a breakthrough.”
