Who’s more out of his mind: Hunter after a 72-hour crack bender or Joe after a good night’s sleep? President Biden strangely saluted the Italian prime minister at the G7 Summit on Thursday. Evidently, he mistook Giorgia Meloni for General Patton (or himself for Sergeant Slaughter). Later, perhaps hearing Dion singing inside his head, he wandered away from other world leaders observing a skydiving demonstration before Meloni corralled him. Video of the Bidenesque behavior called for a Sesame Street soundtrack: one of these kids is doing his own thing. The mystery seemed about as easy to solve as when Sesame Street would juxtapose three baseball players with a football player. It came as not the first time Biden embarrassed the people who voted for him in front of bemused foreign dignitaries. Last week at Normandy, the president tried to sit when everyone else stood and generally appeared unaware of his surroundings. Earlier this year, he talked about his discussions with German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, who died in 2017, about Jan. 6, 2021. Around the same time, he referred to interactions during the first year of his presidency with French President Francois Mitterrand, who died in 1996. One cannot attribute his confusion regarding European politicians entirely to age. Recall that his first run for the presidency ended once he expropriated Neil Kinnock’s biography. He portrayed the British Labour Party Leader’s life as his own at 44. If he suffers from senility now, then he merely suffered from stupidity all those years ago. Hunter Biden, not much older when he met Lunden Roberts than the Joe Biden who identified as Neil Kinnock, suffered from his own mind-altering afflictions. Miss Lunden details some of the pitfalls of his habits in Out of the Shadows, a memoir set for August publication that the New York Post summarized on Thursday. The former strip-club employee and mother of Biden’s fourth child writes of a drug dealer named “Bicycles,” a bodyguard named “Big Country,” a sister-in-law who became his lover, and other Hunter Biden hangers-on. Biden, she said, showered (wisely?) a half-dozen times a day to scrub away the demons, kept drug paraphernalia at the mansion his father rented in McLean, Virginia, and exited an Amtrak to New York to randomly buy pants. A photograph accompanying the Post article appears the picture of unhealth. The party’s-over picture featured a hotel table holding up a quarter-gone handle of Tito’s, an empty 750 milliliter bottle of Stoli’s, an empty half-pint of Jack Daniel’s along with a twin with an ounce left, a Hershey bar wrapper, Hall’s cough drops, Tostitos queso, an empty Pellegrino water, utensils, strange resin, and, most disturbingly, two cartons of baking soda, which, if crack came in packaging, would appear as ingredient number two next to cocaine. The people consuming all those chemicals require rehabilitation; the table witnessing the bacchanal needs therapy. Not since Joy Behar last sat down has a piece of furniture elicited so much sympathy. Seeing Hunter Biden speak in 2024 gives the impression that drugs do not govern his life now as they did then. That’s a blessing. A judge suspending a prison sentence in his federal gun case contingent upon him passing periodic drug tests might most closely approximate justice. The remedy for Joe’s affliction comes in November (and Republicans hope it comes no sooner lest a less beatable candidate replace). Winning, like speaking without trailing off, now seems beyond this politician who never lost a general election in 11 tries. Awarding him four more years in the White House strikes as cruel and unusual punishment not only to the American people but to Biden himself.
