‘Keep spinning’: WaPo opinion writer lets everybody know ‘how to think about’ Biden’s gaffes and put them into context

On Friday, Joe Biden ended an interview with “The Breakfast Club” by saying “you got more questions, but I’ll tell you if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.” The Biden campaign attempted to spin the comment (with help from the media of course) before Joe ended up apologizing.

Washington Post opinion writer Paul Waldman writes that Biden’s comment “made his allies cringe and gave his opponents the opportunity for fake outrage.” But fortunately, nobody is expected to have to think for themselves when it comes to this issue:

Some thoughts on how to think about Biden's (or any candidate's) "gaffes" – what matters, what doesn't, and how to contextualize them: https://t.co/OYs3vzzrid

These writers are very skilled. They get paid big bucks to transform democrats into gods, and Republicans into devils.

Did you notice there’s no debate this year? It’s intentional. The democrats are cringing in fear at the thought of biden facing off with Trump in a debate on camera with 50 million people watching.

Trump would start: “Good evening, Joe. Do you know where you are?”

Perhaps if he had used “aren’t” instead of “ain’t”?

Naw…

Then there’s the whole “cavalier” thing when he tried to backtrack.

How is the MSM uses the “fake outrage” signal when it comes from the right, but never when the outrage is pouring in from the left?

I think we need to reduce media staff by 50% indefinitely. They are definitely NON ESSENTIAL!

How do we know that was really Biden saying that?
It could have been computer animation.

Look, it matters.

Without white liberal elites to explain to black people that they're too stupid to know when they're insulted - and when they're NOT insulted - they might walk around NOT knowing... Someone has to help them.

Aside from that, the black community owes Joe for keeping them out of chains... and they better not forget that either.

Left-Wing Journalist: I’d Vote for Joe Biden Even ‘If He Boiled Babies and Ate Them’ Liberal columnist says ousting President Donald Trump is more important

A liberal columnist for The Nation dismissed sexual allegations against presumptive Democrat nominee Joe Biden saying she would vote for him even “if he boiled babies and ate them.”Katha Pollitt’s remarks signal a shocking trend amongst the left and Democrats who have disregarded increasing evidence of sexual assault allegations against the former Vice President.Pollitt echoed other left-wing journalists who say ousting President Trump is more important than investigating the sexual assault allegations from former Senate staffer, Tara Reade. “I would vote for Joe Biden if he boiled babies and ate them,” she wrote.

Context? The ONLY context you really need to know is that Joe Biden has had CHUNKS of his brain cut out due to aneurysms. At the time, doctors weren't sure if he would left a vegetable. Little is know about the effect of parts of the brain being removed, but ti seems to have left him lacking self control. If he weren't a dem, he would automatically be disqualified from running, but even conservative media is reluctant to even mention this fact.

Would you feel comfortable with him in charge of the nuclear arsenal?

Meanwhile, Trump can’t get three words out of order before being parsed as a liar...

The journalist will have employment and be busy for the next 5 months. Biden’s two previous Presidential campaigns ended because of his gaffes. One where he lied about his academic record, the other because plagiarism.
