Satire in the US press: Biden demanded that Putin "return the keys to the Oval Office"

56

In exchange for agreeing to the summit, US President Joe Biden demanded that Russian leader Vladimir Putin return the keys to the Oval Office in the White House. It seems to have happened during a recent telephone conversation between them.

Such a plot was invented by American journalist Andy Borowitz in his satirical story published by The New Yorker.



The satirist writes that Putin has held the keys to the presidential cabinet in the White House since 2017, hinting that Biden's predecessor, Donald Trump, was under complete control of the Russian leader.

Borowitz describes how Putin was "stunned" by Biden's demand, but apparently he will still have to part with the cherished keys, otherwise the American will refuse to meet with him.

Look, buddy, if you want the summit to take place, you'll have to return the keys. These are the rules of the game.

- says Biden in the story.

And when, according to the story of the American journalist and satirist, Putin reluctantly agrees to give the US president the keys, he asks the Russian leader not to get upset, because the Russian "had a good time" during the four years of Trump's presidency.

For some reason, supporters of the Democrats are trying both directly and with hints to inspire the population of the United States that during the years of the Republican Party headed by Donald Trump, official Washington was completely subordinate to the Kremlin, and now, under Biden, the “sweet life” for Russia will end. I wonder if they themselves believe this or are they just trying to mislead ordinary Americans in order to rally the country around the current president?

In turn, it is worth asking a question to the American satirist: if the "keys to the Oval Office", according to the plot of his work, have been in the Kremlin lately, does this mean that Joe Biden entered this office with the help of lockpicks? ..

        But interesting? What would happen to our journalist who wrote something similar about the GDP? Previously, there was criticism, although it affected the lower levels of the bureaucratic-bureaucratic apparatus - Crocodile and its republican counterparts, Fitil. Now it looks like the first half of the nineteenth century has returned. Then the criticism was newly exiled to the Caucasus, but now it is administrative and criminal prosecution.

            My wife is a journalist. In the days of the Soviet Union, from the district committee, the editorial board was undoubtedly put up. I finished working up to retirement and left, the Administration sets tasks for the editorial staff, which do not allow criticism, but doubts about the correctness of the work. It’s not a matter of criticism, but of the rigid framework of a journalist’s work. I could not stand it and left. Although there is a constant shortage of correspondents in the editorial office.

              That was due to the protection of the citizens of the USSR from "Western values" .. but as practice has shown, it was wrong .. because the prohibitions always strive to break .. and God himself commanded to criticize negligent bureaucrats .. because there is no limit to stupidity ..
              Right now we are reaping ... capitalism ... But on the other hand ... the prohibitions are the same ... the state used to protect people, now it protects itself ..

There, wonderful films were made about the deception of the Indians by white settlers. Then in the USSR they did not even think about whom they were actually filmed.
