In 1892, Lord Alfred Bruce Douglas, Oscar Wilde's lover, wrote a poem called "Two Loves" which referred euphemistically to "the love that dare not speak its name." At that time, homosexuals were expected to keep their sexual orientation and relationships secret. In 1986, Norman Podhoretz published a groundbreaking essay in Commentary Magazine called "The Hate That Dare Not Speak Its Name," which put the subject of antisemitism in American journalism on the public radar.
Now it's time for America to confront the Abuse That Dare Not Speak Its Name: elder abuse. And the victim is none other than President Joe Biden.

Yes we are. I'm trying to feel sorry for him, just can't get there. But his wife is as bad as Hillary. She loves the status, money and waving to the 'crowds' as she leaves Air Force One. She's also the mother who let her husband shower with her teen age daughter..

Give me a break. I don't feel the slightest bit "sorry for him." Joe Biden has been a vindictive, nasty, semi-literate lying POS his entire political life, and likely long before. A lot of us remember Robert Bork, likely the most qualified Supreme Court nominee ever, and Biden and Kennedy (D: Hell) destroyed that good man with vicious and contemptible lies. Same deal with Clarence Thomas, another good and decent man. Biden's humiliating and public disintegration is great sport to watch. Doctor Dingbat may be even more evil than he is, and they are going down together on the ash heap of history. If the DNC and the International Left take them both down, however it is accomplished, fine.
Hell awaits him, and he can't be drop-kicked through those portals quickly enough.

When those who are “advising” the Sniffer can IGNORE SCOTUS rulings, it shows that they are above the LAW.
The Sniffer has the same attitude as his old boss did : “What are ya gonna DO about it”?

“Elder Abuse,” my left elbow.
1) he’s still just cognizant enough to comprehend he lives in the WH and has power (even if it is minor power). That fact alone precludes “abuse.”
2) Poster #2 is most correct: Slimey Biden has been vindictive, nasty, and semi-literate his entire life.
And I had forgotten about Judge Bork. THAT fact absolutely negates abuse. I don’t care if he shows up with bruises and in chains.

I try but can't feel sorry for him. Biden has been an angry corrupt man for his entire public life. Why does he stay? He likes the power.

Most of us here know that a pair of leather work gloves are not a pair of socks.

There's abuse but it's not elder abuse, it's Joe abusing the nation. To me it looks like he's loving every minute of being president, the power, the financial gain, he's no victim -- we are.

I'm with #1. Having unlimited vacation and beach time, fancy food and accommodations while being suffered by anybody in front of his microphone would be a dream come true for anybody who is coherent and being coddled. Joe just goes along with the script and eats his ice cream. Doctor Jill would miss the presidency and all of its trappings much more than Joe would.

FTA: 'The leader of the free world is now an actual physical representation of the decline of American power and the American Republic.' This, IMHO, explains why he IS still there. A mentally sharp, smooth talking spokes-model could just as well be the compliant puppet of TPTB. But showcasing this despicable, corrupt husk, is an extra layer of satisfaction to them. They despise the USA, and its people, and delight in their degradation.

Here's a question, do they let Granddad Biden drive a car (or a big ole electric truck) these days?

"Why is the First Lady not putting an end to her husband's repeated and consistent public humiliation? "
Because she can't stand the idea of being out of the limelight.
