Joe Biden is no longer president and not a moment too soon. After producing the most corrupt slate of pardons in American history, he and Jill Biden shuffled off to Joint Base Andrews to board Air Force One for the last time. Before heading to California for another vacation, something the former president spent nearly 40 percent of his presidency on, he slurred his way through one final speech.
In doing so, he took his shots at Donald Trump while speaking in delusionally lofty terms about the results of the last four years.
BIDEN: History’s going to mark down just what you did, you know, but the point I want to make today as I made clear in my farewell address, as we all do have more to, we have a lot more to do. If you heard the inaugural address today, then we’ve got a lot more to do.

Stay engaged in all the ways you can, whether it’s in public service, the private sector or philanthropy, academia, running for office yourself, or anything else you choose to do. I give you my word, we believe in you. We, Jill and I, our family believe in you. Just as I’ve said, how the laws we enacted, our seeds are going to grow and bloom for decades to come. I say that to you as well. […]
