Joe Biden’s presidency is becoming the political equivalent of that one friend who promises to show up to the party but ends up ghosting everyone. Despite being the man with the keys to the White House, Biden’s recent disappearance acts have both baffled and amused conservative Americans. Just when everyone thought they could finally move on from the relentless barrage of Biden gaffes and awkward moments, it seems he’s simply traded in front-page headlines for a ticket to the Bermuda Triangle of politics.
Not long ago, Biden announced he would not seek reelection, which opened the floodgates to speculation about his future involvement in politics—if any at all. A brief appearance to discuss a Russian prisoner swap reminded the public that he still exists, but it felt more like a half-hearted cameo in a bad movie. With him retreating faster than a magician’s assistant after a botched trick, it’s reasonable to question whether the media’s coverage of the Biden administration is more focused on the spell of his absence than anything substantial he’s contributing. Rumors are flying, and with Kamala Harris seemingly preparing to take over, the stage is set for a political drama worthy of the silver screen.

Biden’s withdrawal from the political limelight has led to a strange new reality—one in which expectations are managed solely by Ms. Harris. While it remains to be seen just how much credit she’ll receive if she ultimately takes the reins, one thing is certain: if any significant failures occur under her leadership, the blame game will be fierce. After all, the American public might just make the connection between Biden’s stewardship and Harris’s potential as the next captain of this sinking ship.
In this peculiar political landscape, where Harris’s shadow is growing longer, Americans are forced to digest the grim reality of what her tenure might entail. With the disastrous policies currently in place, especially around economic concerns, anyone holding their breath hoping for change is setting themselves up for disappointment. Who really expects improvement when the policies have been directly aligned with the Biden playbook? Harris was, after all, a partner in crime throughout the most disastrous phases of this administration.
So, as the attention shifts from Biden’s shaky governance to the unsettling rise of Kamala Harris, it remains uncertain whether voters will recall their disdain for the current administration’s failures or fall prey to the charms of a fresh face. As America watches Biden fade into the background, the pressing question is whether the country will awaken from this collective political amnesia—or just continue on the path to chaos, led by a captain whose ship looks increasingly like it might be run aground. The gradual disappearance of the President raises more questions than it answers, leaving more than a few conservatives chuckling at the rumor mill spinning wildly in a political landscape that seems hellbent on rewriting history.
