A weird Tron-like video in early appeared to show Mr. Biden — looking every bit the part of Max Headroom — interfacing with House Democrats in Congress. Digitally, of course.
One could imagine the Dem droids watching from somewhere in the cybersphere nodding along obediently.
Then he remembered.
“If that’s what I’m supposed to do, Nance,” Mr. Biden added, using his bizarre nickname for the smiling droid staring down at him.
Her face twitched. Mr. Biden, apparently, had failed to display proper subservience.
“Whatever you want me to do,” he added meekly.
Even more alarming than his failure to display proper subservience was the notion that Mr. Biden had offered to allow questions and possibly even answer them.
The Overlords were not pleased.
They immediately issued a long censorship “beep.” Then the Overlords cut away from the video of the man claiming to be the leader of the free world and replaced it with a test pattern of colored bars.
There would be no questions. And certainly no answers.
Who is the president of the United States right now? I am beginning to wonder if we are living in some version of a political sci-fi movie, or an episode of the Twilight Zone. Does a President Joe Biden even exist, or are we watching a CGI digital creation?
Has anyone seen Joe Waldo Biden?
