The "wisdom of the stairs" (sounds better in the original French) means stuff we think about after the fact.

When write stuff on this blog, there is sometimes stuff I think about after the fact. I sometimes add it. This is more so when the subject is complicated, such as the recent Supreme Court oral argument. On that front, here is some more on the bogus concern about one state deciding a national issue. 

I have seen more complaints about Merrick Garland regarding the special counsel in the Biden records case. I continue to think belaboring the point as compared to emphasizing his innocence and overall abilities helps promote the narrative the other side wants to promote. 

Robert Hur's report has dubious aspects that have been covered by some outlets. We need to learn from the problems with special prosecutors, including the asshole in charge of the Hunter Biden matter. But, belaboring the issue does not help. Too much "Democrats in Disarray."  

The bottom line remains Biden is innocent, worked with the prosecutor, and so on. Garland also has done a lot of good. Plus, I don't see him going anywhere though maybe (he is over 70) a new attorney general (who people will complain about) will come in Biden's second term (knock on wood).

As to the memory business, "there is nothing new about Mr. Biden’s memory lapses, malapropisms and rambling, sometimes embroidered anecdotes." We know that about him. As a whole, it does not matter. He is a good president and (unlike past years) is president at the right time. 

The usual suspects will latch on to this (people are still sending memes of him sniffing hair) while Trump is out there acting unhinged and showing much greater signs of mental deficiency in various cases. It is what it is. We shouldn't help the matter by dwelling so much on it.  

People sometimes think they are being realistic cynics but might be putting on a pose that is not actually accurate.  

ETA: I noted that I would not provide a summary of the Super Bowl. Just to update that. The Harlem Globetrotters won again. After all these years, I shouldn't care, but yeah, I'm annoyed. Objectively, in my view, the predictable is not entertaining. 

And, that is what happened. I'm annoyed.
