During a presidential transition period, the outgoing person is labeled a Lame Duck.

It's obvious someone besides Joe was already running the country.  Those are the people who are pissed at Trump coming in and getting s#!t done before he's even sworn in.

Ronald Reagan famously got word that the US Iranian hostages held captive under Carter's term were being released as Reagan was being sworn in.  That didn't happen in a matter of minutes.  Someone had to be working out the release, and the timing, well before his inauguration.

Trump is becoming Reagan 2.0.  He's not hitting the ground running.  He's going to be 1/3 of the way to the finish line before the race even starts!

Those demorats are furious because now they cannot convince biden to throw a couple of hail mary's before the old man leaves.

The old man don't give a sh*t.  He has said his Fa-Q's and will now leave, laughing into the sunset.

I saw parts of his visit to Angola.  He was being led around by the arm by the leaders he was walking the red carpet with.  He was caught on video sleeping during discussions.

The cherry on it was his incoherent speech in which he promised to give Africa $1B to aid drought stricken areas.  Meantime, American citizens living in NC are still without shelter, power, roads, or water a month after FEMA said they are under funded.

Priorities.
