Counterpoint: Joe Biden has been a moronic gaffe machine for his whole career.

Not to worry....the DNC has left no stone unturned to get back into power.

On the stump, Baffled Biden will have DNC-employed interpreters, closed-captioned sub-titles....

And plenty of visual aids.....the DNC hired Booker to wear a dog-faced pony soldier costume.

No more hair-sniffing or nibbling his wife’s fingers.....
Kamala is being tapped to give Joe access to female body parts ....... when he gets the urge.

I think his health collapse is scheduled for the week of the Democrat Convention. If Bernie lacks plurality of votes, it all goes wide open and Michelle or Hillary can be selected.

But I think Joe’s health collapse is already penciled in on someone’s calendar.

I’m more interested in the strategy part of this. The DNC doesn’t want Bernie. Maybe, realizing that Joe probably can’t go the distance to November, they don’t want him, either. But that’s how you get to Hillary, or whomever they have decided should be the candidate.

If true, are you telling me the DNC doesn’t know this? And if they DO know this, they’re ok with Biden moving ahead to challenge Bernie?

If they hate Bernie that much, wouldn’t they have propped up another (like Bloomberg) to defeat Bernie?

The only other option is they know they’re going to lose no matter who runs.

Three and a half years ago most of us thought Hillary would not be in as good as health as she is today.

Once Biden locks up the nomination, he will be carefully controlled by his handlers limiting his appearances and carefully scripting his comments using teleprompters and written remarks. He will not be allowed to make ad hoc comments.

Biden did best on Super Tuesday in those states where he didn't appear and where he invested no money. The less people seen and hear from Joe, the better it is for him and the Dems.

If elected, does his VP Hillary take over or will she find a way to take him out.

Probably not the root cause of something that has been a problem for him for decades - but he does seem to be deteriorating before our eyes...

I think one of the tell-tale signs is in the video where he is trying to recite the Declaration of Independence and he gets stuck on the “you know the thing?”. His veins were popping on his forehead and he was really struggling to get the words out.

Dementia comes and goes. I assume Joe Biden is having brief periods of disorientation followed by longer periods where he can compensate for the cognitive decline. The pressure of the general election campaign will be rough on him. I am sure that the democrats have an upbeat, youthful, energetic backup plan waiting in the wings . . .

Joe’s eyes are vacant. My husband just talked to a guy who watched a Biden video from 2012 and a video of him now. He said the difference was unbelievable, and they can forget their message that 2020JOE, is not just Joe being Joe.

There’s no way Joe Biden makes it to even the nomination never mind the general election

My prediction

The most probable cases that he wins the votes and then he asked to step down and the Democrats just nominate somebody out of the blue as a fall

The DNC, Deep State Elites and $ore$$ thugs know about Joe’s problems.

So, they will try to get him elected and use him like the Dems did with President Wilson after his strokes!

Joe will be like a dummy sitting on their laps. They will pull his strings and move his mouth to fake what he ‘says in the internet’.

The Dems will do the same with Biden as they did with President Wilson. Prop him up and run the country without him in secrecy.

When a secret president ran the country!
Health Oct 2, 2015 1:42 PM EDT

Late on the evening of Sept. 25, 1919, after speaking in Pueblo, Colorado, Edith discovered Woodrow in a profound state of illness; his facial muscles were twitching uncontrollably and he was experiencing severe nausea. Earlier in the day, he complained of a splitting headache.

Six weeks after the event, Dr. Grayson told a journalist that he had noted a “curious drag or looseness at the left side of [Wilson’s] mouth — a sign of danger that could no longer be obscured.” In retrospect, this event may have been a transient ischemic attack (TIA), the medical term for a brief loss of blood flow to the brain, or “mini-stroke,” which can be a harbinger for a much worse cerebrovascular event to follow — in other words, a full-fledged stroke.

On Sept. 26, the president’s private secretary, Joseph Tumulty, announced that the rest of the speaking tour had been canceled because the president was suffering from “a nervous reaction in his digestive organs.” The Mayflower sped directly back to Washington’s Union Station. Upon arrival, on Sept. 28, the president appeared ill but was able to walk on his own accord through the station.

He tipped his hat to awaiting crowd, shook the hands of a few of the people along the track’s platform, and was whisked away to the White House for an enforced period of rest and examination by a battery of doctors.

Everything changed on the morning of Oct. 2, 1919. According to some accounts, the president awoke to find his left hand numb to sensation before falling into unconsciousness. In other versions, Wilson had his stroke on the way to the bathroom and fell to the floor with Edith dragging him back into bed.

However, after those events transpired, immediately after the president’s collapse, Mrs. Wilson discretely phoned down to the White House chief usher, Ike Hoover and told him to “please get Dr. Grayson, the president is very sick.”

Grayson quickly arrived. Ten minutes later, he emerged from the presidential bedroom and the doctor’s diagnosis was terrible: “My God, the president is paralyzed,” Grayson declared.

Courtesy the Library of CongressPresident Woodrow Wilson, seated at desk with his wife, Edith Bolling Galt, standing at his side.

“First posed picture after Mr. Wilson’s illness, White House, June 1920. Courtesy the Library of Congress.”

What would surprise most Americans today is how the entire affair, including Wilson’s extended illness and long-term disability, was shrouded in secrecy. In recent years, the discovery of the presidential physicians’ clinical notes at the time of the illness confirm that the president’s stroke left him severely paralyzed on his left side and partially blind in his right eye, along with the emotional maelstroms that accompany any serious, life-threatening illness, but especially one that attacks the brain.

Only a few weeks after his stroke, Wilson suffered a urinary tract infection that threatened to kill him. Fortunately, the president’s body was strong enough to fight that infection off but he also experienced another attack of influenza in January of 1920, which further damaged his health.

Protective of both her husband’s reputation and power, Edith shielded Woodrow from interlopers and embarked on a bedside government that essentially excluded Wilson’s staff, the Cabinet and the Congress.

During a perfunctory meeting the president held with Sen. Gilbert Hitchcock (D-Neb.) and Albert Fall (R-N.M.) on Dec. 5, he and Edith even tried to hide the extent of his paralysis by keeping his left side covered with a blanket. Sen. Fall, who was one of the president’s most formidable political foes told Wilson, “I hope you will consider me sincere. I have been praying for you, Sir.” Edith later recalled that Woodrow was, at least, well enough to jest, “Which way, Senator?” A great story, perhaps, but Wilson’s biographer, John Milton Cooper, Jr. doubts its veracity and notes that neither Edith nor Dr. Grayson recorded such a clever rejoinder in their written memoranda from that day.

By February of 1920, news of the president’s stroke began to be reported in the press. Nevertheless, the full details of Woodrow Wilson’s disability, and his wife’s management of his affairs, were not entirely understood by the American public at the time.

What remained problematic was that in 1919 there did not yet exist clear constitutional guidelines of what to do, in terms of the transfer of presidential power, when severe illness struck the chief executive. What the U.S. Constitution’s Article II, Section 1, Clause 6 on presidential succession does state is as follows:

NEVER EVER APOLOGIZE.

As soon as you waffle they smell the blood in the water and want even more. There’s no end to the demands.

Refuse to apologize and then the hyenas will go away and go after the weaker animals.

Trump knows this. NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER APOLOGIZE. F ‘em!
