For anyone watching, it will look like a rerun of the Joe Biden presidency. The cars will drive around in circles, always turn left and many who watch will be waiting for a crash.<\/p>\n<p class=\"speakable\">Americans got a terrifying reminder of just how true this is following the release of Special Counsel Robert Hur\u2019s report on how Biden mishandled classified documents. The report skewered the president as \u2018a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.\u2019 Soon after, Biden called a hasty press conference to rebut those charges.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn\u2019t an ordinary press event. It was a sneak peek at the great race for the 2024 election. And the president crashed at high speed. Viewers tuned in to see Biden first recite prepared remarks. He faced the press to dispel criticisms of his mental ability. Biden promptly described Egyptian President Abdel Fatah El-Sisi as the \u2018president of Mexico.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>A mistake of about 7,600 miles. As Maxwell Smart used to say in the spy comedy \u2018Get Smart,\u2019 \u2018Missed it by that much.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-media fn-video\">\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<div class=\"m video-player\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Team Biden responded to the PR disaster by taking their whole media strategy in for a pit stop to work on it. That meant Biden avoided the friendly Super Bowl interview Democrat presidents get prior to the big game. He stayed on that track by avoiding press inquiries during a Feb. 13 event, but vowed to \u2018come back and answer questions later.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The campaign went full speed on that avoiding-crashes strategy by embracing the Chinese social media app TikTok. The president appeared on the app with a short, pre-planned interview under the comment, \u2018Hey by the way, we just joined TikTok.\u2019 Ahh, yes, TikTok, the app the president barred federal employees from having on their phones this time last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>No one asks you tough questions on TikTok, either. So, it\u2019s an easy ride.<\/p>\n<p>Journalists raced around in circles, reporting on the president\u2019s memory lapses. As CNN put it, \u2018Biden\u2019s allies can\u2019t agree on how to combat questions about his age and memory.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But they sure tried. At least three different ways.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-media fn-video\">\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<div class=\"m video-player\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The first attempt followed the incident with some honesty. The New York Times explained how, \u2018Eight Words and a Verbal Slip Put Biden\u2019s Age Back at the Center of 2024.\u2019 The Washington Post had a similar, crash-and-burn look at the memory lapses, \u2018Special counsel report paints scathing picture of Biden\u2019s memory.\u2019 And ABC News went with, \u2018Special counsel blows open debate over Biden age and memory: ANALYSIS.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The Times editorial board slammed Biden, saying, \u2018His assurances, in other words, didn\u2019t work,\u2019 adding, \u2018He must do better.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The media then raced to defend the president with medical professionals. ABC News cited doctors declaring, \u2018Forgetting dates doesn\u2019t mean President Biden\u2019s decision-making or cognitive fitness is failing: Doctors.\u2019 NBC drove home that point, \u2018As Biden\u2019s memory issues draw attention, neurologists weigh in.\u2019<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-media fn-video\">\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<div class=\"m video-player\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Finally, the media cautioned that there was a similarity between the two likely nominees. AP stayed in that lane. \u2018Verbal gaffe or sign of trouble? Mixing up names like Biden and Trump have done is pretty common.\u2019 NPR followed right behind with, \u2018Is there a double standard on age between Trump and Biden?\u2019 Or, as Forbes put it, \u2018Jon Stewart Mocks \u2018Similarly Challenged\u2019 Biden And Trump In Daily Show Return.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Team Biden kept focused on turning ever left to make up for lost ground.<\/p>\n<p>During the president\u2019s failed presser, he openly criticized Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, claiming that Israel\u2019s response to the worst act of barbarism attacking Jewish people since the Holocaust as \u2018over the top.\u2019 Subsequent reporting had Biden referring to Netanyahu as an \u2018a\u2013hole\u2019 at least three separate times.<\/p>\n<p>That left turn is designed to placate the liberals who want Biden to abandon the longtime ally and leave Gaza to terrorist Hamas.<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-media fn-video\">\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<div class=\"m video-player\"> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Then there\u2019s the president\u2019s liquid natural gas export ban. It\u2019s aimed at keeping the climate extremists happy even if it aids America\u2019s adversaries in Russia. Another left turn.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, Biden had to defend his failed border strategy and its architect Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who was impeached by the House of Representatives. \u2018History will not look kindly on House Republicans for their blatant act of unconstitutional partisanship,\u2019 he argued as thousands more illegals crossed the border.<\/p>\n<p>Add in Biden\u2019s failed Houthi campaign because he fears confronting Iran and the president is turning left so often, he would have made NASCAR great Jeff Gordon dizzy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All of that has Democrats worried that Biden might not even complete the 2024 race. Politico, the voice of the Democrat establishment, warned, \u2018Democrats Might Need a Plan B. Here\u2019s What It Looks Like.\u2019 And wannabe President Kamala Harris is eager to shed her Veep title. The Hill wrote, \u2018Harris says she\u2019s ready to serve amid questions about Biden\u2019s age.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>If the race continues like this and Democrats want a better chance to win in November, they might need someone else in the driver\u2019s seat. Maybe they\u2019ll open the Democratic convention with Carrie Underwood singing, \u2018Jesus, Take the Wheel.\u2019<\/p>\n\n<div>This post appeared first on FOX NEWS<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 66th Daytona 500, one of the biggest NASCAR races of the year, has been rescheduled for Monday, Feb. 19.
