ICHEOKU says watching Joe Biden's interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo would make one wonder whether the eight years of Obama/Biden time in the White House never happened. He denied complicity in nearly everything and pretended as if everything he complained about that was wrong with government and which are afflicting American people as well as the world at large were not there when they both, Barack Obama and Joe Biden, were in the presidency, piloting the affairs of the nation and peradventure, the world.
President Donald John Trump did not manufacture those problems but inherited them from Obama/BIden government and just trying his best effort to fix them, solve them or ameliorate them. From North Korea to China to NATO to Europe to Vladimir Putin, who Joe Biden said in the interview was corrupting democracies around the world, meddling in America's election, Britain, Poland, Georgia, Ukraine and Syria, as well as the greater Middle East; all predated the current Trump's government. Joe Biden failed to mention that all the Russian meddling, including in the 2016 America's election happened under his and Obama's watch; and that Putin has not meddled with anything since President Donald John Trump came into office. It is also noteworthy that the Obama/Biden government refused to build the anti missile defense shield in Poland and also refused to sell to Ukraine lethal weapons with which to push back at the Russians, possibly out of fear and deference to Vladimir Putin.
But suddenly, look who is talking "tough" now, when he couldn't be that "tough" when it mattered most and now pretending that he is the one we have been waiting for, as the second best thing to happen to America since the sliced bread. ICHEOKU says if Joe Biden in fact knew what he is talking about now, why did he not implement them when he was Vice President or at least persuade his boss Barack Obama to implement them, while their government lasted? But no, he waited until their eight years in the White House was fretted away, to now pontificate on a no brainier nonsense nothingness. It was also under Obama/Biden government that China stopped respecting American presidency and the disrespect was such that on one of Obama's stopover in China for a conference, the Chinese government refused to bring a step for Obama to climb down from Air Force One forcing Obama to use a back stairways to climb down.
The South China sea Island was reclaimed under Obama/Biden and Ukrainian Crimea was also forcibly annexed by Russia as Joe Biden and Barack Obama stood watching. But now, he has morphed into a John Wayne and Spiderman all in one and talking as if he never had the opportunity to do as he is now boastfully chastising the president. And speaking of the Chinese and Chris Cuomo failed or deliberately refused to ask Joe Biden about his son Hunter Biden's sweetheart deals from a Chinese company; ditto the Ukrainians.
Joe Biden also spoke about NATO but failed to own up that under Obama/Biden government, NATO had a free reign on America treasury and were not paying their fair share of funds necessarily needed for the upkeep of the organization. But instead of giving President Donald John Trump credit for revamping NATO, Joe Biden was busy being the politician which he is, trying to split hairs in a failed attempt to rubbish the great work which the president did in repositioning NATO and increasing its liquidity. Joe Biden also refused to apologize for his wrong position on busing of school children and rebuffed the several opportunities extended to him to make that wrong right. Whether it was a result of his being arrogant or incapable of understanding the need to put that chapter behind him, ICHEOKU does not know; but says what an opportunity missed.
What Joe Biden meant by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez being merely a winner of a primary and not an election winner, needs further clarification because not only did the Congresswoman from New York win the primary, but she also won the main election, the reason she is in the Congress today. But Joe Biden would rather belittle her great accomplishment by suggesting that she is an ordinary political paperweight who does not control nor have any influence in the Democratic Party. ICHEOKU says may be the grand ole boys and girls who own and run the Democratic Party have decided that it was about time the Congresswoman from New York is kneecapped. Possibly, things are about to get ugly in the Democratic Party, in a dog eats dog night of long knives fight, to finally finish off themselves in their war over ideological divide and generational leadership gap, which is brewing in the party.
AOC must therefore prove to Joe Biden that she is the new deal; that Joe Biden belongs in the past; that his time has now gone and that the future of the Democratic Party belongs to her generation. She must take up the challenge thrown by Joe Biden's dismissal, by endorsing a new generation candidate and mount a fierce battle to humiliate Joe Biden out of clinching the party's presidential nomination.
Joe Biden was also conceited about the economy and refused to acknowledge that the policy change from his Obama/Biden inept government was the reason for the current economic boom, as all the Obama/Biden strangulating regulations on business have been removed, business freed to do what they do best, create jobs.
From his reaction on Kamala Harris attack during their debate, it seems that he was expecting Bernie Sanders and other male candidates to attack him, but not a woman, especially when that woman is a black woman, who happens to know him and his son Bo; when he served a black president Barack Obama as Vice President. His thinking might be, since he has suffered the humiliation of serving under a black president, every black person in America now owes him big time and must line up behind his presidential quest, having earned his black bona fides by agreeing to serve under a black president.
ICHEOKU says Joe Biden repeatedly made references to Trump being a bully, which forces the question, who is really the bully between the two men. This is a man who regularly invaded women's space, sniffed their hair, touched and kissed them without their consent and against their will. This is a man who wouldn't apologize and has refused to apologize to the many he has offended, including these women-victims of his unwanted touchy-feely, those school children who his action denied busing to better performing schools. In fact, Joe Biden sounds off as a bully himself, having repeatedly stated how he taunted and smacked people on the mouth during his school years.
The questions remains, if Joe Biden chickened out and failed to run against Hillary Clinton in 2016; couldn't defeat Barack Obama in 2012 primaries and instead was settled with a consolatory prize of a Vice President; now couldn't stand up to Kamala Harris, how does anyone, especially the Democratic Party voters, find comfort that such a wimp could stand the unabashed, no holds bare, fearsome awesome political guru that is President Donald John Trump, who fires from all cylinders, shooting first and then asking questions later. Probably, Joe Biden is just running his mouth as weaklings always do; because he knows down the bottom of his heart that he stands zero chance whatsoever in a brawl with President Donald John Trump, both then and now; and if he is in doubt, he should ask Vince McMahon of his encounter with the Donald on WWE.
ICHEOKU says Joe Biden knows that China did not get to where they are presently within just the last two years of the Trump's presidency. They used the period when Obama and Biden were in charge of affairs to build up their economic and technological holdings, including their 5G Network. So who is really to blame for the Chinese audacity other than the two men who chaperoned America for 8 long years while China was pulling off from its leash, Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
ICHEOKU says a man who speaks from both sides of his mouth and who readily changes his positions admitted to Chris Cuomo that the Democratic Party's presidential debate should focus on futuristic things and not things that are past. However, he forgot to add that the futuristic aspiration should appertain to everything, including a futuristic candidate; but not a man who has been in Washington DC for 47 long years and definitely belong in the past which he is urging the debate to avoid. So, why would anybody listen to Joe Biden canvassing for a forward looking debate, but silent on a forward looking candidate and when his candidacy itself is from the ancient world, a nostalgic blast from the past.
The other shocker in the interview was his constant "c'mon man" refrain to every attempted push back by Chris Cuomo. It was rather strange, his repetition of "C"MON MAN". It later became obvious why he did it as he wanted to sound hip, aware that he is out of touch and no longer belongs in today's world. Joe Biden laboriously tried to sound as if he belongs in this era's politics; and you wonder what somebody who first got elected to Washington DC in 1972, is still doing in politics 47 years later.
Overall, the interview was revealing and showcased the real Joe Biden, the un-salvageable political sea-wreck which he is; and not the packaged Joe Biden which his minders would rather have and shamelessly trying to convince American people is the Joe Biden they should vote for. As you know, things could sometimes get crazy in life, but with Joe Biden, he is craziness personified. The interview unmasked him, the reason voices were heard from across the room shouting at Chris Cuomo to end the interview to stop the bleeding. Kudos to Chris Cuomo for snagging the interview and for his attempted push back on some issues; admitted that what was left unasked were plentiful.

Christy 'Apena' Essien-Igbokwe , the wife of Jegede Shokoya of the New Masquerade and Nigeria's lady of songs is dead; she was 51years old. Although her family claimed that "brief Illness" killed her like so many Nigerians; Icheoku retorts that it was most likely AKwa Ibom voodoo and remote control that was used to arrest her. It is on record that she had fallen out with the governor of her native Akwa Ibiom State and have been having a relentless war for political turf with the governor? So who knows whether she was sacrificed to Ekpe cult or even Alusi-Okija as an offal; afterall African science is still very much alive and portent. May her soul rest in peace.
