Joe Biden Has Hardly Approached Politics With a Moral Compass

President Joe Biden epitomizes the amoral politician. A lifelong mediocrity of limited ability and questionable ethics (people who went to law school with him remember him as an intellectual dullard and a plagiarizer), Biden went all-in on learning to play the political game at an early age. Like others who have no skills or talents that could translate into achieving distinction in the private workplace (think Bernie and AOC), Biden found a lucrative career in politics by using what can only dubiously be called a “talent” — the ability to spout out glib gobbledygook that pushes voters’ emotional hot buttons and exploits their ignorance, prejudices, and fears. Joe learned the one all-important political lesson: Go along with the leftist mob and pay attention to which way the wind is blowing in the polls.
