Hey, just remember that Trump is the bombastic one with no foreign policy experience.

Biden’s experience is like Hillary’s one disaster after another. No one has ever said experience must consist only of achievements.

Disasters in the world of those not above the law usually disqualify one from important jobs, though.

I’ll bet Trump has more foreign policy experience than Biden and Obama combined. Just take a look around and see what Hillary, Obama, and Kerry did for us.

Haha….after pulling out his despicable Dead Son Card, Biden announced to the Democrat audience, “Trump has no experience or temperament for the job. See my guy over there who is carrying the nuclear code? He agrees with me.” If there was ever anyone who does not have the temperament for his job, it’s Blabbermouth Biden.

This Biden display of arrogance and stupidity is exactly why Japan believes they cannot trust the US.

If I were Japanese I wouldn’t trust the US as far as I could throw the Obozo administration.

The Biden-Scarecrow graphic doesn’t work. The scarecrow in Oz was actually intelligent but he thought, erroneously, that he was in need of a brain. . .Biden, however, IS an idiot, but he thinks, erroneously, that he has a fully functional brain.

What’s the difference between Hillary and Joe?

Hillary knows when she’s lying.
