\u201cThe puppies playing on the floor are the ones who weren’t afraid to take the leap off the\u00a0sofa.\u201d<\/p><\/div>Fiasco Joe has by now lasted 15 days longer than I thought he would. Even as I admonish myself to abjure all predictions, still I keep expecting the world to drop that old shoe.<\/p>\n

Here’s what’s what: Traitor Joe has the yips. Always has had, and the yips might well be the source of the ‘stutter’ he is alleged to have had. I’m not sure if he really has senile dementia or if he’s faking it to hide all the treason, but his response to all challenges \u2013 hiding \u2013 is only making the yips worse.<\/p>\n

As is the world. A golfer with the yips is only looking at one ball. A batter with the yips is only staring down the next pitch. But the world will not stop throwing emergencies at Sleepy Joe, and hiding from them not only makes them worse \u2013 it makes everything<\/em> worse.<\/p>\n

I know Walkaway Joe is toast, because the preference cascade against him will swell with his every abdication of responsibility.<\/p>\n

Hide and watch: A president with the yips is an ex-president.<\/p>\n
