DOCTOR Jill Biden is the power player on the cover of the August issue of Vogue that dropped early Monday and, if she was trying to make a statement about the election and last week’s debate debacle, her timing couldn’t have been better.
Granted, these covers are planned weeks in advance â glamour shots like DOCTOR Jill Biden’s don’t just happen on a whim.
But the little blurb that goes with the cover shot? That can be changed at any time, right up to publication. It doesn’t take any time or special skill. Anybody with 34 seconds to learn how to use a meme generator like Imgflip â they’re my go-to, BTW â could do it.

If she had wanted to make her husband â the ostensible commander-in-chief â appear strong and in command, she’d have said, “He will decide,” or, even better, “The President will decide.” Or if she wanted something a little more folksy, “Joe will decide.”
But no. It’s “WE WILL DECIDE.”
DOCTOR Jill Biden wants to remind everybody that she’s the strong one, the one in command…
