We’re seeing a lot of fuss and bother over the 2024 presidential election.
But do we even need a president?
I ask because we don’t have one now.
And we haven’t had one for all practical purposes for something between a few months and three years.
Independent journalist Glenn Greenwald recently tweeted, “The US has no functional president and has not had one for months, and it’s barely noticeable and barely matters because there’s a permanent unelected machine that runs the government.”
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ken.) replied, “Where’s the lie?” Elon Musk commented, “Bingo.”
Joe Biden may be capable of lobbing insults at half the country, but he certainly isn’t running things.
