    If Biden is anyone, he’s Bilbo.

    The difference is we didn’t have a Gandalf to wrest the ring away. So Bilbo keeps putting off the journey and spends all his time telling people no one else can carry the burden and about all his past adventures.

    Dude’s never left the Prancing Pony

    I get it man, you didn’t expect the analogy to fit so well, but it does.

      You’re only comparing Biden to Bilbo because they both look old. That’s shallow. If Trump is Sauron in the analogy, which is how I set it up, then Biden is at least as strong and important as Aragorn. More so, really.
