As one commenter on this X/Twitter thread quipped: You have to admire the dedication to the grift.
Jill Biden has already presented the Biden Inc version of the last four years in her memoir and book tour this year. At some point, Doctor Jill had Joe Biden tagging along on her tour when he spilled the beans that he had a book of his own coming out in the fall. Democrats across the country had already questioned why the Bidens inserted themselves into the midterm electoral cycle, and groaned about the proximity of Joe's book release to Election Day.
Believe it or not, it actually gets worse. After fronting a fraud for four years in the White House and attempting to defraud voters into another four using Joe as a sock puppet, Biden Inc has the audacity to roll out a lecture about what America owes the Bidens. The title of Joe's new book is Promise Me, America, which sounds like the exact opposite of JFK's famous exhortation, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."
Joe put out a two-minute video promoting the book earlier today. Or rather, the Bidens pieced together a multitude of brief cuts lasting seconds at a time to make Joe look coherent:
I’ve written a book about my time as President. It’s called PROMISE ME, AMERICA. It’s coming out November 17th and is available for preorder now. https://t.co/uMINr9efxS@littlebrown pic.twitter.com/yzWfZyD31A

Is there a cut in these two minutes that lasts longer than three seconds? Even with the quick cuts and splashy video clips, Biden barely sounds coherent at times. It looks very much like the 2024 campaign did – another attempt by the Bidens to extend their business plan and revenue sources long after their only product had gone past its shelf date.
From the title and his description, the book sounds like a hybrid, part memoir and part political lecture, from a president who was barely there in his own term. Biden promises the book will reveal the reasons behind "the decisions I made," when it's been very clear now for two years that Biden wasn't capable of making decisions. After June 27, 2024, the fraud collapsed and made it clear that his family and close advisers had usurped presidential authority in his name, and worse yet, planned to do so for another four years if they could have gotten away with it.
Did anyone even wonder how a lecture from the Biden Regency would sound after the collapse of their fraud? Nobody, and I mean nobody, who listened to the Robert Hur tapes will believe for a moment that Joe Biden could sit down and write a memoir. No one who listened to those tapes would believe that Joe Biden could even partner with a ghostwriter in any meaningful way to write a book. This book will have come from the same people who had their collective hand up Joe's backside since at least the Easter Bunny incident in April 2022, and likely since his campaign began in 2019. Given the size of the book in this promo, they didn't even work very hard at this arm of the fraud.
This is just another Biden Inc cashout, and it comes at an uncomfortable time for Democrats, who really won't want the Biden Inc fraud case put before voters. The November 17 publication date might avoid that, except that big-ticket book rollouts usually start their PR campaigns a few weeks ahead of their official launch. Books will get to reviewers and influencers by late October, most likely, in an attempt to use the election to build buzz for sales. The publisher is almost certain to take a bath on this book unless it catches the public imagination, and no one will want to talk politics for a few weeks after Election Day.
Republicans should make hay with this ham-handed lecture from one of the hammiest political families in American history, especially from the president who was intellectually vapid even before he began to suffer the effects of dementia. Even with his full faculties, Joe Biden was among the least of political minds at the national level, and his lectures on what America should promise him would likely produce comedic gems for the ages.
