CommentsTHE DOCTOR IS IN - Dammit all, China is a huge human rights and economic threat to the world, and I am SO tough,
so they'll fear me when I keep politicians and diplomats out of the Olympics, but not American athletes, to show China a thing or two!
Or my name ain't Joe Biden!
Dammitall, everyone knows how Taiwan, Tibet, Hong Kong, Mongolia, and other regions and nations are being slammed by human rights advisors, so I'll make a difference by keeping my cherished and feared politicians and diplomats away!
Or my name ain't Joe Biden!
Dammitall, China threatens repercussions, and I am man enough to take them on, and I'll ignore all their claims about pointless grandstanding!
Or my name ain't Joe Biden!
Dammitall, it's of no relevance that China never planned to invite these politicians, because they're the best, brightest, and most important Americans we've got!
Or my name ain't Joe Biden!
Dammitall, the fact that very few other nations will follow suit and keep their politicians away from the Olympics means nothing!
Or my name ain't Joe Biden!
Dammitall, even if China is gonna have their Olympics, and threatening their own retaliation, whether the world likes it or not means nothing. NOTHING!
Or my name ain't Joe Biden!
Dammitall, who cares that I never recommended that China should be disallowed from using the 2022 Olympics as a propaganda tool, which might be long, long overdue! C'mon, man! Get real, because we've got to them where it really hurts, which is to keep my politicians at home!
Or my name ain't Joe Biden!
Ask Putin and the Russians--they fear me, don't they? I'll show Xi just like I showed Putin!
Or my name ain't Joe Biden!
OR MY NAME AIN'T JOE BIDEN!
