After four years, two impeachments, and several calls for former President Donald Trump to be booted from the White House during his tenure in the Oval Office, it seems the idea of a president finishing their term in relative harmony has become a notion of the past. Despite current POTUS Joe Biden’s notable lack of impeachable offenses, Wyoming Senator John Barrasso is evidently committed to making the current Commander-in-Chief a “one-half-term president.”
“Mitch McConnell’s come under a lot of criticism for saying, at one point, he wanted to make sure that Barack Obama was a one-term president,” the lawmaker said during an event hosted by centrist republican thinktank, Ripon Society, last week. “I want to make Joe Biden a one-half-term president. And I want to do that by making sure they no longer have House, Senate, White House.”
Despite some confusion surrounding what, exactly, the lawmaker meant by this statement, it seems that instead of waiting for 46 to allegedly ask some shady favors of the Ukrainian government or arguably incite a deadly insurrection on our nation’s capitol, the Senator is apparently looking to proverbially, rather than literally, remove President Biden from office, kneecapping his term by earning back Republican control during next year’s midterm elections. “I’m looking forward to a very successful 2022,” Barrasso explained.
