Joey’s Playhouse
By now you’ve seen Joey’s playhouse. It’s the slapped-together set White House staffers assembled in the Executive Office building next door. Now any time Joe wants to play President, he can go next door and romp around in his playhouse.
It comes with some-assembly-required little desks, faux walls, and faux windows that have digital images of the White House lawn projected behind them.
But unlike the playhouse Daddy might build for his daughter in the backyard…
… Joey’s playhouse has the added benefit of stage lights and cameras.
That way the news media can broadcast Joey playing President in perfect stage lighting.
When Joe had his COVID booster shot photo op, his handlers staged it in his little playhouse.
After a photo appeared on Twitter showing that the booster shot tableau was done in front of his faux wall, social media erupted in mockery over Joey and his stage set playhouse.
The mockery must have stung because “fact-checking” sites were springing into action to “fact-check” the mockery. Politifact posted a fact-check with the headline “No, White House didn’t create fake set just for Joe Biden’s booster shot.”
Wow. Way to argue against a point not being made.
Politifact explained that Joey’s playhouse has been used gobs of times, therefore the mockery of his booster shot photo op was FALSE. Um. No.
Well, yesterday, Joey wanted to play “Let’s scare the people by talking about all the baddy-bad-bad stuff that’ll happen if those meanie Republicans don’t agree to raise the debt ceiling.” And, you guess it, they played that game in Joey’s playhouse.
He’s the President, isn’t he? Doesn’t he have an entire White House to play in? Why did they need to build him his own playhouse next door?
What? Did Jill just wax the White House floors and she doesn’t want little Joey tramping all over them?
“Joe, I just waxed in here! Go over and play in your playhouse until the floors dry!”
“Awwwww! But Dr. Jill!!! I have friends coming over to play!”
“You can play as much as you want next door IN YOUR PLAYHOUSE!”
Apparently the projection behind the faux windows was a bit, well, seasonally dated.
That wasn’t the only technical difficulty yesterday:
Good grief. Look at those rickety little desks. I mean, I know it’s a playhouse. But even Ikea thinks those things look cheap and shoddy.
If the White House wants to dispel the rumors that Joe Biden isn’t really President, he just plays one on TV, maybe building him his stupid little playhouse isn’t the best way to go.
This is what makes that Politifact “fact-check” so ridiculous. They bent over backwards to argue that it wasn’t made for the booster photo-op; it gets used a LOT. But when the mockery is over how fake and staged this President is, citing the numerous times they film little Joey in his playhouse doesn’t debunk the mockery; it confirms it.
And it confirms something else, doesn’t it?
It confirms that Joe Biden isn’t particularly presidential.
An actual President and Commander-in-Chief would take one look at this phony president’s playhouse and fire every last staffer who thought it was a good idea.
Leaders lead. And an actual leader of the free world would insist on projecting strength.
Sitting on a phony set at teeny little slapped together desks in front green screen windows doesn’t project strength. It telegraphs artifice, fakery and pretense.
In short, Joey’s playhouse only makes him look even more of a sham.
And the fact that Joe Biden is incapable of seeing that confirms one more thing.
He doesn’t have the mental capacity to be President of the United States.
