It was back in the fall of 2018 down in Tupelo, Mississippi, a town best known as the birthplace of Mr. Presley. Trump remarked that "people are saying" that he looks a lot like Elvis. Sure, Mr. President. Go snort some more of whatever you're snorting. It just goes to prove that self-delusion is a sad and terrible attribute, especially in politicians.

The Otherworldly Mind of Poor, Lost Joe Biden and Black Americans

Charles R. Anderson, Ph.D. at An Objectivist Individualist - 21 hours ago
Joe Biden, the Democrat who would be President, has said that 150 million Americans have died by gun violence.

In 2017, 52% of homicide victims were black. The percentage of the American population who are black is 13.4% and the American population is thought to be 329 million by normal people, though it is clearly much less in Joe Biden's world.
