46th President of the United States - Joe Biden

Joe Biden hasn’t done shit as a president because, well…he’s still the president elect. However, he is the third consecutive president to have no military experience. As a child, he had a stutter that the kids in his class used to bully him. Anti-Bullying laws weren’t around, and even if they were, it wouldn’t have done shit to prevent it, as everyone knows, Anti-Bullying laws look good on paper and that’s about it. 

He is the oldest president to be elected, which is odd, because the same people who said John McCain was too old to be president, well…I’ll leave it at that. Unlike President Obama who he once said was the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy, he absolutely loves ice cream. His wife turned down his proposal to marry her four times, and the nation turned down his proposal to be president twice. But hey, it’s all about persistence. He spent his childhood in Scranton, PA, where The Office is set, and for over 30 years, he took the Amtrak back and forth to Washington daily. Respect. 

When it comes to gaffes, he definitely takes the cake and an entire book could be written on his “gaffes”. He chose not to call witnesses from several women who had provided depositions corroborating Hill’s testimony that Clarence Thomas had grabbed her by the pussy. He was instrumental in writing the Violent Crime Control Act in 1994 that disproportionately imprisoned minorities, but he helped sponsor a bill that supported violence against women, so there’s that. He received the most popular votes of any candidate in history. He has been married to Jill since 1977, and to put that into perspective, that’s the year President Trump got married for the first time.
