What we have here is a bad dog owner. But even that plays into the larger problem that is Joe Biden. He was too old to train and care for a German Shepherd puppy. This was a bad idea from the start, and everyone around who has been bitten has paid the price for letting Joe feed into his “I’m a German Shepherd person” fantasy. And everyone around Joe, Jill included, continues to let him believe the fantasy that he is still sharp enough and healthy enough to run for president again, even though the public has become very aware that the emperor has no clothes on. The admission from Team Biden’s campaign staff that their whole goal is to keep Joe from falling down should be enough for the Democrats to insist on running someone else in 2024. But they can’t do it, and Jill won’t admit it either. Honest question: now that they have sent Commander away, will Joe even notice??

My guess is that the Biden team will decide that they can’t risk any more injuries, and quietly rehome Commander the same way they did with Major. This time, though, Joe cannot be handed another puppy by his brother or anyone else close to him. The third time will NOT be the charm, and would be equal to animal abuse, because any dog would be set up to fail. If Joe desperately needs a dog, give him a realistic stuffed animal. He’s too old to handle his own dog, and he’s too old to handle the job of president.
