In a shocking revelation that has left the nation both amused and bewildered, it has come to light that President Joe Biden has spent the majority of his presidency lounging on the plush, velvet sofa in the Oval Office. Sources close to the White House, who wish to remain anonymous for fear of being asked to join the president in his reclined state, have confirmed that Biden’s daily schedule often includes “sofa time” as a primary activity.
“Executive decisions are now made horizontally,” quipped one insider. “The President believes that the best ideas come when one is completely relaxed, which, in his case, means sprawled out like a cat in the sun.”
The news has sparked a wave of memes, with social media erupting in a flurry of #SofaGate posts. Political analysts are divided, with some praising Biden’s approach as a new form of “laid-back leadership,” while others criticize it as the ultimate symbol of a presidency in repose.
The White House has yet to issue an official statement but did release a photo of Biden with a caption that read, “Working hard or hardly working? You decide!” The image showed the President with a stack of papers, all seemingly untouched, on a table beside him, as he enjoyed what appeared to be a very comfortable nap.
As the nation debates the merits of sofa diplomacy, one thing is clear: Biden’s reclined presidency has given new meaning to the term “executive relaxation.”
