Did anyone see or hear this speech over the weekend? It was totally embarrassing to think this is coming from the supposed front runner of the Democrat party. Nevertheless, check this out. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...lking-about-kids-playing-with-his-hairy-legs/
Yesterday a person on this board said the video is fake even though Biden’s lips sync up perfectly with his words. This video is all over the internet except for CNN.
That's just plain weird. I wonder what it is about politicians sometimes. Y'know, as a teacher we get it hammered into our heads to watch what we say on social media. We're told to keep our heads down, to be careful what we say and share about ourselves because the kids may be watching. Granted, I say next to nothing on my FB page but I know better than to overshare like Joe is. It's as if no one seems to have told these guys what us nobodies down in the trenches have known about putting our lives out there online. Because here's the thing - imagine a teacher going in front of the classroom and saying "Hey kids, I got hairy legs that turn blond in the sun. The kids used to reach into the pool to touch them. That's when I started reading up about cockroaches. Oh, and I love kids jumping onto my lap." Yeah - that'd be kinda creepy. And now imagine someone was filming it and posted it on Instagram. You'd have parents asking the DO about what kind of standards they have, and they'd be justified in doing so. I think the principal would have a nice long talk with that teacher. Possibly HR. I'm guessing some kind of staff development would be involved before the teacher was let back into the classroom. Joe needs a social media intervention.
Since Biden has over 50 Years in Public Life (including over 47 Years since he was first Elected to the U.S. Senate), this sort of "cartoon" lip-synced to his previous statements is just the Tip of the Iceberg. Imagine the Sort Of Absurd Memes that the Twitter/Reddit RW Fever Swamp Troll Squad will be pushing 11 Months from now. Just the Tip of the Iceberg (of what Biden should expect if he gets the Nom.)
I will take what comes. But, IF Biden isn't nominated--The Dems Better WIN. B/c if they nominate Sanders or Warren (and LOSE) the Second-Guessing will never cease.
Obama has already said he won't tolerate Biden or Sanders. Sanders isn't an establishment insider, Warren is performing weakly, and Biden is blowing it. https://www.salon.com/2019/11/27/ob...ernie-sanders-from-winning-nomination-report/ https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/471962-obama-looms-over-divided-democratic-primary https://www.politico.com/news/magaz...-obama-2020-democrats-candidates-biden-073025
They had a chance with Tulsi but she was not radically, far left enough and Hillary green lighted her. It's like they actually WANT to lose again!
I am perfectly fine with a Sanders nomination. Maybe even a Warren VP slot. The base wanted him in 2016 and Hillary and the DNC elites screwed him out of it, which is how we got the shitshow we have now. The Trump base may not be wavering, but the middle-of-the-road voters who wish he'd just stop Tweeting his idiocy for all the world to read certainly are.
All of those "links" are Complete MISCHARACTERIZATIONS of Obama's statements. Those "links" are just copypasta floating around among the RW. Obama never said anything like that. And, RW Blogs twisting Obama's words DON'T qualify as "sources". ^So, there's that.
LOL, so "fake news" huhh? You beat the fake news drum anytime you dont want to hear things. Salon and Politico are as left as it gets, lol
Of course, in 2016, things were a lot different. I just want a Dem. Candidate who can WIN. Personally, if the Boys From Brazil cloned somebody (and they were able to get the Dem Nom.), I would vote for them.' I will vote for anyone with a (D) next to their name (to STOP Trump). As far as a Sanders/Warren ticket? If it can actually WIN. Something tells me that "Identity" politics (in the Dem Party) is going to necessitate a person of color. But, who knows? The main thing for the Dems is going to be walking the tightrope and avoiding the sort of circular firing squad that is going to alienate a portion of the party (like in 2016 and the DNC). The thing is THIS: No matter who gets the Nom., ALL Dems have to be on the same page (and TURN OUT). The Dems can't afford people WASTING Votes on 3rd Parties (like on Stein in 2016), and no "sitting it out" (like disgruntled Bernie Supporters who thought that they were "making a statement" (and facilitated Trump's election)). No matter who they support in the Primary, ALL Dems need to be on the same page and TURN OUT in Nov,. (to Defeat Trump). ^That is Non-Negotiable.
AJ you have to be prepared for the possibility that no democrat candidate can win in 2020. As far as avoiding the circular firing squad-you are too late. Biden is accusing Bootygig of stealing his plans... Harris is saying she's losing because Iowa dems are racist/sexist... Obama won't let Sanders win...
