Biden to deliver remarks in Philadelphia Tuesday on nationwide protests

Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden will deliver remarks in Philadelphia on Tuesday addressing the protests across the country sparked by George Floyd’s death.

Biden will speak in front of a pooled press on “the civil unrest facing communities across America” Tuesday morning, his campaign announced in a release Monday night.

The former vice president had met with African American community leaders in Wilmington, Del., on Monday and said he would be making national speeches on the future and direction of the country.

“I need help and advice as we go on as to what I should and shouldn’t be doing,” he said.

During the meeting, Biden also called black voters to support him and turn out to vote to retake the White House and the Senate and oust Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

The presumptive Democratic nominee said in a statement over the weekend that protesting was a valid reaction to Floyd’s death, but he cautioned about further violence and destruction of property.

Biden’s announcement came shortly after President Trump’s Rose Garden address, in which he said he was dispatching the military across Washington, D.C. in response to the Floyd protests.

The president also encouraged governors to “dominate” the streets with the National Guard, threatening to send in the military if they do not. It was not immediately clear under what authority Trump could send American troops to U.S. cities without governors' requests.

I can hear it now.

Biden: When I said if you aren’t for me you’re not black. I meant that see!

I’m sure the Secret Service is thrilled to be on geriatric detail!

With a ‘pooled press’ Biden will have a better chance of pulling off at least a scripted speech perhaps....but admitting he used black advisors and not also police officers, suggests he’s pitting himself in the most favorable light with the rioters against Pres. Trump and our Police Community.

They’ll have him jacked up on something and likely a short speech he might make it through.

Regardless of what he says he’s already shown he’s supporting the rioters by getting his advise from black advisors and not from officers as well.

We shall soon hear the Demorat leader presenting their case.

It’s interesting. He’s unable to put any expression into reading the teleprompter. His tone is consistently flat. If it weren’t for his history as a total scumbag hack, I think I’d feel sorry for him. Dementia is a sad thing.

Am very familar with the signs, older sis is going into last stages (alz) and it’s a bastardly disease!

Bidens family should be deeply ashamed, better arrested, because this is elder abuse what they’re putting him through.

Check the times on Ol Joe’s appearances. Notice anything?

They’re all done in the morning or afternoon. Almost never after 4.

Know what we boomers call that? It’s called “Sundowning”, and it’s a sign of dementia/Alzemhiemers (forgive my spelling, I maybe forgot how to spell!). Anyhoo...

A lot of dementia patients can maintain a normal narrative during the daytime. It’s as evening approaches that their crazy comes out.

I try not to watch the bumbling old fool (but I am tempted to call Adult Protective Services about his family making him perform as they do) but I’ve been keeping loose track of his times in front of the mic. I was surprised to see that he did not wear the mask on top of his head as a hat!

I watched the speech this morning. He was clear, coherent, and confident. But it was a boilerplate, uninspiring, perfunctory speech. Nothing memorable, but no gaffs either.
