Joe will play the sympathy card on his son’s death and women will fall for it. He did the same thing about a “drunk” driver that killed his first wife. The driver wasn’t drunk but Joe still got away with milking it for all it was worth. It kept in office for decades.
Personally, I don’t believe his son asked him to run for president. It’s all bs.
And say what you will, he kicked Paul Ryan’s ass in that debate. (not that it’s any great accomplishment)
