Who Needs A President Anyway?

Right. now, this minute, who is in charge? Do we have a President today? It certainly isn't Joe Biden, who's been MIA for weeks now, or Kamala Harris, out campaigning, or anyone as far as I can tell. Suppose a space ship from another planet lands in the middle of a field in Kansas this afternoon, dispensing aliens seeking to do us harm. Who would decide what to do? 

So maybe we don't need a President after all. Think of the money we could save: Flying Air Force One costs $177,000 an hour. The annual budget for Secret Service protection of the current administration and their families was $3 billion last year. And just one state dinner at the White House runs about half a million.

All that for what? Remind me.
