So there is some confusion about the Biden/ Nero comparison. “ Fiddled while Rome burned” has a double meaning. Not only did Nero “play” while his people suffered but he was also known as an ineffectual leader in time of crisis in Rome. And , yes he did play a stringed instrument called a “cithara” , a heavy wooden instrument with four to seven strings. Not sure what kind of instrument our current “Nero” plays but his leadership characteristics clearly match those of the former Roman leader. I hope those Repliers who didn’t pay attention in school now understand the Spout.
