Well yesterday was the big day. The "Summit" in Geneva, between Biden and Putin.
If you listened to the build up by the lame stream American media? You might have thought that it was going to be High Noon with Garry Cooper.
But that isn't what I saw. And neither did the rest of the world.
What I saw? Was more akin to the movie West World. And the autocrat automatron Putin? Playing his part as the killer gunslinger Yul Brenner perfectly.
Putin effortlessly made Biden out to be the squishy pants no threat, that he really is in front of the world.
I saw a weak minded and feeble looking Biden. Pretending to be a gun slinger for the media. Walking timidly toward the big confrontation.
However, the supposed stoic mystery man being concealed behind Biden's Raybans and his handlers?
Was ultimately revealed to be a crossed legged timid poser. Figgeting with his flash cards and trying to remember what he was supposed to say.
Watching Biden's performance on the news last night? My mind drifted back to Biden's speech a couple of weeks ago.
Where he supposedly complimented the little nine year old girl on the front row. According to Biden? "Sitting there cross legged, just like a 19 year old little lady."
Remember that? I do.
And when I saw him sitting there yesterday? Legs crossed? Fiddling with his flash cards? While Putin eyed him like a sophomore cheerleader?
Well the analogy was prescient
Nothing was accomplished by their meeting. Putin agreed to nothing and Putin walked away with his guns still holstered. Having obviously assessed the present American president as a non threat, and a non issue.
Yes, Putin most definitely reminded me of Yul Brenner in West World. And the character's first encounter with the American tourists. Pretending to be gun slingers.
Only later to square off with the make believe president and his make believe threat. And stone cold stare him down and walk away.
Anyone else notice the resemblance? Of Putin and Yul Brenner in West World?
