Biden Poised to Defeat George

Um

Speaking at an ‘I Will Vote’ virtual concert, Biden said: ‘Not because I’m running, but because who I’m running against, this is the most consequential election in a long, long, long time. The character of the country, in my view, is literally on the ballot. What kind of country we’re gonna be? Four more years of George, um, George…’

His wife Jill could be seen repeatedly muttering the word ‘Trump’ under her breath as he stumbled to remember the name of the president – ironically enough, a question often put to concussion patients in hospital to check if they’re cognitive functions are working properly.

A vacant-looking Biden hesitated then added: ‘Gonna to find ourselves in a position where, if Trump gets elected, we’re going to be in a different world.’

The fact that Biden briefly thought he was running against George W. Bush, whose presidency ended eleven years ago – and I have to assume he meant that George, not Dubya’s late father President George H.W. Bush, or it really is time for another urgent cognitive test – was a toe-curling mistake, and one that will be seized on by Republicans desperate to portray Biden as a man suffering from the onset of senility.

Especially as it came just two days after Biden said during a campaign video: ‘We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.’

    He was being interviewed by GEORGE Lopez. He stumbled while talking, but at no time did he think he was running against George Bush.

    Try again. More Garbage.

    Sorry, not “desperate.”  And he’s waaaaay past “onset.”

    Nice spin, jonny, but not true.
    If you actually watched the video, there was no pause before he uses the name George. Usually, if you are addressing someone, there is a pause between the statement, the persons name and then continue on with your statement.
    And why he insert the name George at that occassion?
    More likely, Biden knew the question was coming, was reading off a teleprompter and for got to pause while mentioning Lopez’s name.

  4. jonnyv

    Mar, regardless of HOW he stumbled thru his words. Whether it was a teleprompter, or just had another issue. It is quite possible he meant to say Trump and said George because he was staring RIGHT AT the interviewer. It is disingenuous to claim that he thought he was running again GWB. He mentioned Trumps name literally 3 seconds later. You are kidding yourself if you have never said one thing while completely meaning another because you were looking at something.

    And as far as his wife saying something, if she was whispering, it more than likely would have been caught by the mics.

  5. Mar

    jonny, of course I have stumbled but I am not a professional speaker, like Biden. I am not a lawyer. I was not in the Senate or participated in numerous interviews and public events for 50 years.
    Biden has.
    He has no excuse, unless there is something cognitively wrong with him.

  6. penquin

    Excellent article – especially the part that wasn’t quoted. Thanks for sharing!

    >He was being interviewed by GEORGE Lopez. 

    Are you suggesting that he was thinking he would have four more years of interview with George Lopez?

    “Four more years of George uh…  George uh”.

     

    Care to try again jv?  That was the weakest defense of senility I’ve seen yet.

  8. jonnyv

    Jason, I am saying that he was looking at George Lopez and spit his name out instead of Trump. Or that he literally just stumbled over his words and skipped the word “Trump”. Very simple answers.

    It is funny that Biden can go thru two extensive debates without making a huge gaff. But the minute he makes a tiny one, everyone jumps on him like he is senile. It is rather ridiculous.

    Trump talks out of his ass, lies/exaggerates almost EVERY TIME he opens his mouth, and supporters just write it off or ignore it. So, forgive me if I don’t take your talks of senility seriously.

    >And as far as his wife saying something, if she was whispering, it more than likely would have been caught by the mics.

    Watch the video, she looks just like Jeff Dunham doing his show. Its pathetic.

  10. jonnyv

    Jason, at least they are not swapping her out with fake wives like they do with FLOTUS for public appearances.

  11. Kevin Scheunemann

    Libs want this senile old man with his hand on nuclear football?

    You are nuts

  12. Jason

    Wow jv, that’s a great way to defend your guy! You must be so very proud!

  13. jonnyv

    Jason, you were the one that brought up wives. You opened the door to stupid conspiracies.

    I did defend him with reasonable explanation as to what probably happened. But hey, feel free to live in your own fantasy world.

  14. Mar

    So, jonny, that’s your standard now, that Biden did not have a major gaffe?
    If this was a one or two time, it’s no big deal, but it seems like it happens almost every time he speaks

  15. dad29

    That’s not a “reasonable” explanation, pal.  His brain hit the sundown switch and…….oh, well………..

    This is elder abuse and someone(s) should be prosecuted.

  16. Le Roi du Nord

    You want proof of senility:

    “Because it’s sort of gross to talk about, right? So I won’t talk about the fact that people have to flush their toilet 15 times. I will not talk about it. I’ll only talk about showers. But there is three things … This way they can’t report it.”

    “So what happens, I called my people, environmental people: ‘Why are we doing this?’ Because when you wash your hands it takes five times longer … you get soapy, you can’t get it off. I said, ‘Open it up.’ They said ‘What do you mean?’ I said, ‘Take the restrictors off.'”

    He added: “You ever get under a shower and no water comes out? And me, I want that hair to be so beautiful.”

  17. Le Roi du Nord

    Need more?

    “Our army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do, and at Fort McHenry, under the rockets’ red glare, it had nothing but victory,”

  18. Le Roi du Nord

    Still need convincing?

    “The closest thing is in 1917, they say, the great pandemic. It certainly was a terrible thing where they lost anywhere from 50 to 100 million people, probably ended the Second World War,”

  19. Le Roi du Nord

    Gee, this is sorta fun:

    “In April this year, Trump criticized wind power in a speech at the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner, claiming that the turbines—which he also mistakenly referred to as windmills—could cause cancer.

    “They say the noise causes cancer,” Trump said at the dinner as he mimicked the sound of a turbine.

  20. Mar

    I wouldn’t be talking about senility, sociopath, as you have proved to have a serious case of senility besides being a sociopath.

  21. Kevin Scheunemann

    Nord,

    Trump has been making peace. Nominated for 4 Nobel Peace prizes.

    Biden does not kniw where he is on the map.

    No one cares about your smatterings.

  22. Le Roi du Nord

    How so, mar?

    And you k, don’t know how to spell.

    And those aren’t my “smatterings”, those are the ridiculous quotes of your idol.

    Making fun of Biden isn’t near as productive when you have to defend the nonsense trump utters every day.

  23. Pat

    I’m enjoying reading all of these comments while drinking my covfefe and eating my hamberder.

  24. Mar

    See, sociopath, you don’t even remember the numerous, numerous times I’ve pointed out your lies and your forgetfulness.
    Get help.

  25. Le Roi du Nord

    Gee mar, it’s hard to remember stuff that never happened.  But you do.

  26. jonnyv

    So, just tonight Trump claimed Cory Booker never lived in Newark. He currently lives there and was mayor at one point. This must mean that Trump is senile and unfit to be president.

    That is how it works?? Right?

  27. Jason

    jv…

    It is funny that Trump can go thru two extensive debates without making a huge gaff. But the minute he makes a tiny one, everyone jumps on him like he is senile. It is rather ridiculous.

  28. Le Roi du Nord

    “tiny one”. Now that statement is truly ridiculous.

    And did you watch either debate? trump was one giant gaffe.

  29. Jason

    Take it up with jv, he’s defending Biden tooth and nail… if he’s not gaff’ing he’s probably not breathing!

  30. Mar

    The sociopath reminds us why he is a liar, sociopath and senile.
    He is in serious need of institutionalization with a great deal of medications, besides hydroxychloroquine.
    His dog is in danger as well. The sociopath probably doesn’t even remember he has a dog. But surely forgets to feed it or take it outside to poop out little Le Rois.

  31. Le Roi du Nord

    You can’t defend trump and his chronic gaffes (see above), so you attempt scatological humor. How juvenile. And typical.

  32. Mar

    Actually, it was meant to be humerous.
    You are an horrible, senile, hateful, liar and sociopathic person.
    Or you are a troll who is a hateful sociopathic person.

  33. Le Roi du Nord

    Few folks see humor in feces. Those that do are usually young males (you could look that up were you even slightly curious). Now that you have narrowed down the maturity of your mental faculties we all can make better decisions, both now, and in the future, as to the validity of any and all of your immature, juvenile, and hyperbolic claims and assumptions.

    Thanks for clearing that up for us.

  34. Mar

    Actually, it was a metphor, that you are a POS. Not supposed to be humorous.
    You are just a nasty, hateful, senile, lying, sociopathic old man with no redeeming values.
    Unless you are just trolling, then you are a trolling, sociopathic hateful lying old man.

  35. Jason

    Lets ask penguin if he’s trolling… seems he thinks he knows if anyone is trolling at any time.

     

  36. Le Roi du Nord

    mar:

    “Not supposed to be humorous “. Yet you said earlier, “Actually, it was meant to be humorous “. You screwed up again, little fella.

  37. Mar

    Yes. Sociopath, I did, but nonetheless, you are still a lying, coward senile sociopath.

  38. Le Roi du Nord

    mar:

    So you really lost control here, little fella. Is there some physiological reason for your irrational statements?

  39. Tuerqas

    It is funny that Biden can go thru two extensive debates without making a huge gaff. But the minute he makes a tiny one, everyone jumps on him like he is senile. It is rather ridiculous.

    So which ‘tiny one’ are we talking about, the George Bush comment or the comment on having the largest fraud organization that American politics has ever seen?  I mean, according to the article Piers Morgan wrote, Morgan did not think for a second that Joe Biden mixed the interviewer’s name with Trump.  If your experts don’t use that sad excuse, I am surprised any liberal, who are constantly suckling the experts would.

    Trump is a liar, an exaggerator and an instigator, but his second debate showed that at least he is still sane.  The fact that Biden has been allowed out very sparingly (i.e. not given a chance to give out more ‘tiny mistakes’) only shows more clearly that his handlers are well aware how far gone he is getting.  Liberals are voting for Kamala Harris.  Maybe they think that is a good thing, I don’t know, but I hope they realize it.

  40. Jason

    The “Harris-Biden Administration” tiny slips by both Joe and Kamala on the same day… were not really slips, but a between the lines messages for their supporters.  No one questions that.

  41. Mar

    So,the sociopath has nothing as usual.

  42. Mar

    I might add sociopath, that you are such a weak person, you won’t even defend yourself.
    Another sign of being a sociopath.

  43. Mar

    So. You have nothing again, Sociopath.
    So weak.

  44. Le Roi du Nord

    As if one Nebraska isn’t enough:

    “We have to win both Nebraska’s.”  djt at recent rally in Nebraska.

  45. Jason

    Well since Biden’s entire platform is ensuring we don’t have four more years of George I think DJT’s slip is tiny.

  46. penquin

    Well since Biden’s entire platform is ensuring we don’t have four more years of George

    Even if that was true (and I do beleive that you beleive it is), it would still be more than the GOP’s platform this year…which is non-existent.

    The Republicans decided to not have a platform for this election, and instead passed a resolution saying that the party supports whatever it is that Trump wants to do and asked the media to stop picking on ’em. Basically, the GOP is no longer a political party, but rather has become a Trump-cult, beholden to whatever he wants to do.

    For those who would like the actual truth about the Democratic’s platform, rather than the facebook rumors being spread by others, here is a link to it. Despite the claim that was just made, it doesn’t seem that the name “George” appears anywhere in it….
