Joe Biden, the 82-year-old former president who was forced to step aside due to incompetence after bragging about beating Medicare on a debate stage, is eager to return to politics. NBC News reports that “Sleepy Joe” and his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, have been reaching out to Democratic leaders and offering to help the party “regain its viability” and revitalize its tarnished brand. The former president relayed this offer last month during a private meeting with Ken Martin, the new chair of the Democratic National Committee. Alas, the overture “seems to have fallen flat,” not least due to Biden’s hard-earned reputation as a bumbling geezer and relic of the past who often struggles to form coherent sentences.
