Mika: Why not approve a search of her name in those [Univ. of Delaware] records?
Biden: [3 second silence] Approve a search of her name.
Mika: Yes, and anything that might be related to Tara Reade in the University of Delaware records.
Biden: [2 second silence] There IS nothing. They wouldn’t, they, they’re not there. And if they ha, if, if its th, I, I, I, o, uh, you know, I don’t understand what y-, the point you’re trying to make.
Mika: The point I’m trying to make is…
Biden: There are no personal records by definition…
Mika: …you are…the point I’m trying to make is that you are approving and actually calling for a search at the National Archives records of everything pertaining to Tara Reade. [speaking sloooowwwwly now] I’m asking why not do the same in the University of Delaware records, which have raised questions [Biden shuts his eyes tightly now] because they were supposed to be revealed to the public and then they were sealed for a longer period of time. Why not do it for both sets of records?
Biden: Because th-, the material [rapid eye-blinking now] in th-the d, University of Delaware has no personnel files and it has, but it does have a lot of confidential conversations that I had with the President about a particular issue, that I had with the heads of state of other places…that that would not be something that would be revealed while I was in public office or while I was seeking public office. It just stands to reason…the best of my knowledge, no one else has done that either. [looks like he’s begging for sympathy at this point]
Mika: [Trying make it clear once again] I’m just talking about her name, not anybody else in those records, a search for that.
Biden: [5 seconds of silence]
Mika: [Tries yet again] Nothing’s classified, not with a president or anybody else. [Very sloooowly one more time] I’m just talking about a search for Tara Reade’s name, in the University of Delaware records.
Biden: [3 more seconds of silence, and rapid eye-blinking] Look, I’m, uh, I mean, who-who-who, you know, does that search? [Goes silent again]
Mika: [clearly frustrated that her efforts to do this idiot a favor are failing] The University of Delaware, uhhhh, perhaps you set up a commission that can do it? I don’t know, whatever is the fairest way to create the most transparency.
Biden: [groans] Well, this is… look. Mika. She says she filed a report. She has her employment records still. She said she filed a report with the only…
[End]
Wow.
To be clear, I had assumed this would be your classic effort by the fake news media to perform what the political pros refer to as an “inoculation interview.” That’s the process in which a candidate facing a tough issue sits down with a carefully-chosen corrupt interviewer like Mika to do a carefully-constructed interview in which the questions were all vetted in advance. The candidate provides carefully-worded answers drafted by staffers to those pre-approved questions, and the interview ends. The rest of the corrupt news media outlets then take the position that the questions have been “asked and answered,” and refuses to address them going forward on the ground that they are now “old news.”
In watching the interview, I still believe that was the plan going in, and things appeared to be going fairly smoothly until Biden chose to dissemble in answer to this particular, very simple question. I feel sure that Morning Mika fully expected Biden to answer with, “Sure, we can do that if you want to, but I already know that there’s no personnel records there – they’re all in the National Archives.” Something like that, anyway.
But he didn’t do that, and it obviously caught Mika off-guard.
It is also quite obvious that, midway through the interview, as Biden became increasingly incoherent, Mika suddenly realize that, oops, all those people who have been saying this guy is not right in the head are – gasp! – right. You can see it in her face and in the way she spends two solid minutes attempting to baby him through what is a very softball question with an easy answer, treating him at several points in the same way one would treat a 3 year-old toddler.
Thus, what was no doubt intended to be an inoculation interview suddenly turned into a potential death knell for a presidential campaign. These two minutes of video will now be used repeatedly, over and over and over again, by the Trump campaign and supporting Super PACs to flood the airwaves with ads that will devastate Biden if he ends up being the nominee.
Somewhere, Hillary Clinton is drafting the acceptance speech she will give after the big money Democrat donors convince Biden to hang it up in a month or so, and the DNC hands her its nomination for one final swing at the presidency.
Biden won’t be the nominee. Not after this.
That is all.
Yes, I was thinking that also, as she kept pressing on and on about the University of Delaware records and Joe was incoherently attempting to deflect. The orders must have been given that it is time to take Joe out to make room for Hillary or Big Mike.
From the interview. Diagram the following sentence. Biden replies after Mika asks him “Are you absolutely certain, are you absolutely positive, there is no record of any complaint by Tara Reade against you?
Diagram this:
Biden
“I am absolutely positive that no one that I’m aware of ever was been made aware of any complaint a formal complaint made by or a complaint by Tara Reade against me at the time this allegedly happened 27 years ago or until they I announced for pres...well I guess it was in April of May of this year.”
I challenge either of you to translate that, as well.
Just saw local 10 news South Florida, Biden is cleared, President Trump had woman accuse him of rape
No hit here for the pervert
After Mika’s expert finessing of Gropey Joe Biden, I finally begin to understand why Joe S fell madly in love with her.
This girl is a one-in-a-million.......no question.
All this ridiculous speculation is just plain stupid.
The nominee has to be Biden or Bernie. Period.
The dems just can’t nullify all the votes that Bernie got in the primaries.
One more thing PENETRAITOR...was the meme dog-faced pony soldier aide/focus group stupidity, late-night co-conspirator comedian epic fail or had Hillary’s DEPLORABLE team infected your campaign.
NOT because she wants an honest hearing on his guilt, but because she wants him out and Hillary and/or Moochelle IN!
I honestly thought the first Morning Joe question to Joe would be something like:
“Why is that horrible Tara saying such bad things about a nice guy like you....the ONLY Democrat qualified to be president?”
I think that was by design in coordination with the DNC.
Someone mentioned the broom being preflighted..
Analysis/Insight BUMP! Thanks, CD.
I think Mika did a fine job in the interview. She was actually asking tough but fair questions, in my opinion.
Anyone who thought it would be a powder puff interview should be pleasantly surprised that Mika actually asked some difficult questions.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
were there any probing questions?
That’s exactly what this is about.
The media never destroy one of their own unless they have a larger purpose in mind.
Biden's reply after Mika asks him: “Are you absolutely positive, there is no record of any complaint by Tara Reade against you?
Diagram this: “I am absolutely positive that no one that I’m aware of ever was been made aware of any complaint a formal complaint made by or a complaint by Tara Reade against me at the time this allegedly happened 27 years ago or until they I announced for pres...well I guess it was in April of May of this year.”
“Search records” is something done by people who care about facts.
Biden has had a “fact free” career as a politician.
He wouldn’t know a “fact” if he ran over one.
Joe Biden in Being There...cubed
Old Joe was caught entirely off guard when asked about a simple name search in the Delaware files for “Tara Reade”. This might be a new idea for him.
After all, this is a guy who uses the word “intercourse” when describing the nation’s commerce. This is a rarely used term anymore in business, more 19th century than anything. He also confused everyone for a while when talking about stock market “coupons” until someone reported they used to have those things many decades ago. Biden is supremely out of touch with the present.
Here's why that cannot be allowed. Another FReeper posted it the other day and I saved it; I'd give credit to the poster but I neglected to save the screen name- sorry.
If the election is not held this year then on January 3rd the House of Representatives is empty. The terms of all Congressmen and Congresswomen end as of January 2nd. In the Senate, over one third of the seats are empty because they were up for election this year. Republicans hold 23 of those seats and Democrats hold 12, so on January 3rd there will be 30 Republican senators and 35 Democrat senators, Chuck Schumer becomes Senate majority leader and the Democrats appoint the President pro Temp, who becomes President on January 20th since Trump's term is up and there is no Speaker of the House.
You got that right. There is no way Bernie Brothers would stay silent if all of Joe Biden’s delegates suddenly vote for Hillary on the first ballot at the Democrat National Convention. There will be a civil war in the Democrat Party.
“This won’t take him down. “
That’ll be up to Joe to do.
No doubt they are doing all they can to PROP HIM UP.
