All he could do was blame Democrats and Biden for his failures. The Republicans control both houses, the executive, and a SCOTUS that is sympathetic to the executive, yet he still can't get anything done. Trump is clearly completely insane if he believes what he said. One of the problems is that, as Jamal Bouie argued in one of his latest op-eds, he presides over nothing. Trump is not in control of the country; the cronies underneath him are, and they feed him BS to soothe his ego and feed his narcissism so they can continue to go about implementing their agendas. Think Russel Vought for economics, and Stephen Miller for domestic (ICE) policy. They are the clowns truly in charge.

I assume you heard about the partisan plaques Trump had installed in the White House below the portraits of Obama and Biden. And the picture of Biden is merely an autopen signature photo. The plaques basically read like one of his social media posts, and he claims that Biden stole the 2020 election and that Obama spied on him in 2016. The leader of the United States is certifiably nuts and cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.
