Our Brezhnev?

News that I missed, courtesy of The Babylon Bee:

WASHINGTON, D.C.—President-elect Joe Biden will be inaugurated this week, and due to his incredible popularity with the American people, he will be inaugurated in a top-secret location behind a massive 12-foot wall guarded by 30,000 soldiers.

“The reason President-elect Biden has to do this is that he’s just so incredibly popular,” said Don Lemon on CNN. “He has so many rabid fans that they might try to rush the stage as they’re overcome with enthusiasm and love for Biden who is by far the most beloved candidate who has ever run for President.”

In addition to the 12-foot electric fence topped with razor wire and the 30,000 heavily armed soldiers who have been vetted as Democrats, there will be flying drones programmed to target MAGA hats, a platoon of ninjas, and a moat filled with crocodiles dug all the way around the Capitol Building and White House. 

Biden will then be escorted to a secret underground bunker patrolled by attack choppers where he will give the oath of office in a dark concrete room with all the recording equipment turned off.

“This is a slight break in tradition but it’s necessary because Biden is just so incredibly popular and loved by the people,” said Nancy Pelosi.

Go here to read the rest.  Biden has been called the American Brezhnev.  That is inaccurate in some respects.  Brezhnev was 57 when he came to power after toppling Khrushchev, and he was three years younger than Biden is now when, old and sick, and possibly senile, he died in office in 1982.  However, in being an avatar of an out of touch establishment, desperately seeking to hold on to power against an increasingly hostile populace,  the comparison is apt.  In the winter of 81-82 Brezhnev basically was reduced to a figure head with the Soviet Union actually being run by  Andrei Gromyko, Dmitriy Ustinov, Mikhail Suslov and Yuri Andropov.  We will have to become like the Sovietologists of yesteryear to figure out who the puppetmasters of Biden are.
