Biden Suddenly Extends His Vacation, Leaving the WNBA Champs Hanging and Questions Abounding
[RedState] If members of the WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces were excited to meet Joe Biden and the First Lady on Friday, they were left disappointed. According to Peter Doocy, the president suddenly extended his vacation in Lake Tahoe, choosing to instead send in the B-team of Kamala Harris and her husband to facilitate the White House event.
What you do when you discover on the day that he just can’t, even after taking all the meds.
Far be it from me to defend the terrible sports product that is the WNBA, but it seems pretty disrespectful for the Bidens to decide at the last minute that they had better things to do than to show up for an event that was planned months ago. It's also ironic given the president's constant talk of gender equality. I guess the women's sports teams aren't important enough to matter.

What's more interesting, though, is the speculation about why Biden extended his vacation. I mean, it's not like he's had a shortage of downtime lately, with him being away from the White House almost the entire month of August. First, he went to Rehoboth Beach, then he went to Camp David, and as of this writing, he's in Lake Tahoe at a billionaire Tom Steyer's house. So what gives? I've got a few ideas.

Remember how terrible Biden looked when he put his latest vacation on hold to visit Maui for a few hours after it had been devastated by fire? He was zoning out on camera and even appearing to fall asleep at times, and that's when he wasn't making insanely unempathetic jokes in front of people who had just lost everything.

Did Biden decide to stay in Lake Tahoe because he's having one of his many "bad days," in which he can't function enough to be in public? That's certainly where my money would be if I had to bet on the matter. It's just not normal for a president to cancel an appearance at a pre-planned event at the White House unless there's some extenuating circumstance behind the scenes.

#5 The problem with the drugs they're using to maintain him is that there's a 'saturation' effect, where it takes more to achieve results. Then the side effects start presenting.

#8 Joe is a solid Phoenix Mercury fan. He has no interest in alienating the other Mer faithful by house fire stores with their dreaded nemesis.
