Joe Biden took time away from his many vacations, where he spends a significant amount of his time, to attend Memorial Day ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery. Despite his frequent breaks, it’s important to remember that his time off means he’s not making as many mistakes as he would if he were working. Transparency is lacking as there are no visitor logs to show who he’s meeting with during his time off.
During the Memorial Day ceremonies, Biden appeared distracted and disengaged while others were speaking. Instead of focusing on the solemn event, he seemed more interested in fidgeting and not paying attention. This behavior reflects poorly on his ability to maintain a proper appearance during significant ceremonies.

Obviously Biden is wearing his geriatric balance shoes, which is a staple in his wardrobe now.

Rather than focusing on the purpose of Memorial Day, which is to honor those who died in battle for our country, Biden chose to speak about his son Beau, who died of cancer. While tragic, Beau’s death does not align with the purpose of Memorial Day. Biden’s continuous referencing of his son during such events detracts from the true meaning of the day.
It is crucial to remember the 13 brave service members who lost their lives during the botched Afghanistan withdrawal orchestrated by Biden. Their sacrifices for the nation deserve recognition, yet Biden fails to mention their names out of a desire to avoid acknowledging any failures on his part. This lack of accountability is disgraceful and disrespectful to the families of the fallen.
Biden’s tendency to bring the focus back to his personal experiences, such as his son Beau, even during moments meant to honor fallen heroes, shows a lack of understanding and empathy towards those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. It is important to prioritize the memories and contributions of the service members who died in battle, rather than allowing personal narratives to overshadow their heroism.
