"The Emperor of Ice-Cream"

The calamitous immorality of keeping a senile man in office.

By John Leake

A while back, Sky News Australia reported President Biden’s visit to a Baskin-Robbins shop in Oregon in which he was filmed going in for his Signature Sniff on a woman who was seated in the shop. Judging by the tape, it appears that it was the woman’s young daughter who initially drew the President’s attention. It’s tempting to think his initial impulse was to sniff the pre-pubescent, but then thought better of it and went for the mom.

The Signature Sniff is an obvious example of Disinhibited Behavior, which is highly characteristic of someone suffering from senile dementia. According to the Dementia Australia Website, Disinhibited Behavior includes:

• Tactless or rude remarks. Making inappropriate comments about another person. It can seem like the person with dementia is trying to deliberately embarrass or harass the other person.

• Sexual comments. Flirting inappropriately with someone or making sexual comments.

• Undressing. Removal of clothing at inappropriate times or places.

• Touching themselves. Forgetting social rules, they may touch their genital area in public.

• Impulsiveness. Driving dangerously or make hurtful comments to their partner, family member or friend.

Never mind the importance of having a mentally acute chief executive during times of international crisis, when he may be called upon to make critically important decisions affecting the lives of millions. I’ll limit my reflections here to the calamitous immorality of keeping a man in office who is suffering from advanced senile dementia.

That our Constitutional government allows this to continue is an outrageous affront to the dignity of the American Republic and the human race over which the American Republic wields great influence and power.

It is also an outrageous affront to the dignity of Joe Biden. Whatever one thinks about Biden’s career and record as a politician, there can be no doubt that he was, in his younger days, a man in full possession of his mental faculties. The spectacle of him now doddering around in an ice cream parlor, making inane remarks, and sniffing a woman’s hair is a gross and needless embarrassment of him and his family.

It’s important to understand that approximately half of the American electorate is either not aware or only dimly aware that this is happening, because their preferred media outlets do not broadcast recordings of it. Note that Sky News is in Australia.

I know an extremely intelligent and educated lady here in Dallas who was perfectly stunned when I showed her a video compilation of President Biden groping and sniffing girls. She had no idea that this was going on.

Note also that in 1988—in Biden’s younger and far more vigorous days—the Democratic Party and the U.S. mainstream media dumped him like a ton of bricks when it was revealed that he had lied about his law school credentials and plagiarized speeches by former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, President John F. Kennedy, and British Labor Party leader Neil Kinnock.

It seems to me that the desire to keep President Biden in office now is prima facie evidence that we are no longer living in a Constitutional Republic, but in a simulacrum of one in which the purported Chief Executive is a puppet of shadowy, unelected interests.

As Wallace Stevens wrote in his poem “The Emperor of Ice-Cream” about our desire to avoid confronting the harsh reality of death:

Let be be finale of seem.

The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.
