He got that chance in 2021.

He showed off his switch pitching ability this week at the 2022 MLB Draft Combine....

Impeached by the House earlier this month, the president is expected to be tried by the Senate early next year....

The president made the mistake while addressing students at South Carolina State University, one the country’s over 100 historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs). Biden credited the HBCU Delaware State University for support that led to him being elected to the Senate on his first attempt in 1972. He referred to the vice president as “President Harris” while pointing out that she had graduated from Howard University, an athletic HBCU rival of Delaware State....

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that Trump’s comments show how “unfit” he is to hold an elected position. “In his remarks this weekend, he defended the actions of his supporters who stormed the Capitol and brutally attacked the law enforcement officers protecting it. I think it’s important to shout that out and call that out,” she told reporters. “He even attacked his own vice president for not, in his words, having overturned the election,” Psaki continued....

So who died in Left 4 Dead 2? None other than William Overbeck, that wily old, pill-popping veteran that was difficult to love, but impossible to hate. Yes, Bill won’t be fighting zombies with Zoey, Louis and Francis anymore. Instead he’s solemnly sitting in a pool of his own blood, his gun still in his cold hands. How did Bill die? It’s never explained in The Passing. In fact, Bill’s name isn’t even mentioned by any of the characters throughout the DLC....
