If he lives long enough, Joe will write a book. He could reuse this title, but maybe add the question mark.

Former Vice President Joe Biden added to his long list of gaffes at Wednesday evening’s Democrat presidential primary debate in Detroit, botching everything from the price tag of his opponents’ health care plans to his own closing statement. Here are seven moments where Biden — now 76-years-old — misspoke, lost his train of thought, or blurted out actual nonsense during the late-night debate.
1.) Biden tells Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) ahead of the debate: “Go easy on me, kid.”
While it may have been his intended word choice, the disrespect to a sitting senator started his debate performance on the wrong foot and distracted from whatever positive message he may have offered. The hot-mic moment was further undermined when Biden went negative on Harris without provocation.

He sounded awful- stuttering and mispronouncing words...
I would not be surprised if he did not survive the campaign.
I would hate to stand in front of a crowd speaking, with the knowledge that every ‘mistake’ I make was being notated and tallied by numerous reporters. It reminds me of a Toastmasters Meeting, where people learn to speak in public.
However, if you’re running for president, that is the level of scrutiny you open yourself up to. Everybody knows it before they get started.
The scrutiny becomes all the more vicious when most the media want you gone from the race, like yesterday.
Oh.......a good night for bumbling Joe.....
If he lives long enough, Joe will write a book. He could reuse this title, but maybe add the question mark.
Looks like he's about to or just finished thumbing his nose at the crowd. Great photo angle.
The Rats know they’re going to lose.
Do our domestic enemies send their best young up-and-coming Hussein Head racists against America’s champion, or a doddering old fool plagiarist/pedophile they can always blame after the Big Loss?
From the article:
” Biden also grossly understated the Obama administration’s 10-year stimulus package of roughly $800 billion, saying it was $87 billion.”
Actually he’s closer to the truth with respect to actual infrastructure projects. The rest was spent on everything but infrastructure.
President Trump CAN serve for 8 more years.
1) be re-elected
2) resign 1 day before his second year of his second term; have Pence serve as a stand-in
3) run for a third term and serve four
So, he's improving, huh?
Really? Joke Biden? His schtick is long past its expiration date. Adios Groper.
Top 10 Joe Biden Gaffes
Throughout his decades of public service, the former Senator and current Vice President has earned a reputation for often saying the wrong thing at the wrong time

Sorry, I think the Constitution is pretty clear that no person shall be President for more than two terms. As for your idea of the partial term, they’ve got that covered, too.
If you take over for someone and its more than two years, it counts as a full term, and you can only get elected once.
It’s the 22nd Amendment, and I think it’s written in straightforward language rather than unnecessary legalese, so I don’t see how its terms can be bypassed or extended.
minor gaffs won’t hurt Bidn ... in fact, Bidn’s odds IMPROVED on predicit.org after last night’s debate!
https://www.predictit.org/markets/1/US-Elections
and his poll numbers were only briefly affected by the first debates, bouncing back to pre-debate levels within a week.
as long as Bidn can maintain SOME semblance of cognitive ability and avoid horrific gaffs (regular gaffs will be OK) and maintain enough physical energy to appear in public at least as much as Hillary did (not hard to do), he’s likely to get the nomination, because the nomination is likely to be a function of name recognition, fund-raising ability, and organization (which none of the other nimrods really have), as well as the rank and file Dem’s distaste for the rest of the gaggle of leftist tools in the running.
so far, the rcp poll average supports the above thesis, as do the Drudge post debate polls, the latter indicating that the pubic is more enthused with fringe candidates who aren’t total kommies than they are with the so-called mainstream candidates ...
Given this list as it currently stands, that’s a HUGE win for Bidn IF he can minimally keep it together during the subsequent debates, because all the polls are showing that the bulk of the Dem rank and file are profoundly disappointed and disillusioned with the far-left kommie nutjob candidates ... and the number one concern of the rank and file Dems? A candidate who is most likely to beat Trump ... nothing else much seems to matter to them ... the leftist media has trained them well in that regard ...
therefore, they’re going to turn to Bidn, as weak as he is overall, both in mental and physical acuity, because he SEEMS mainstream to them compared to the rest of the kommie lunatics who are running ...
Is the legacy media fact checking this old fool or is it only Breitbart?
As is usual for him.
You got that right.
One of the all-time bodacious federal scams was Obama’s “stimulus program.” All the Democrats got filthy rich.
Obama appointed Biden to “oversee “stimulus money distribution.” To date, still no full accounting as to
where it all went (not to worry, Hunter knows where it is).
Missing in Action: Stimulus Sheriff Joe Biden
By Michelle Malkin - Oct 10, 2012

Remember when President Obama bragged about Joe Biden’s fiscal discipline creds in 2009? “To you, he’s Mr. Vice President, but around the White House, we call him the Sheriff,” Obama warned government employees. “Because if you’re misusing taxpayer money, you’ll have to answer to him.” Fast-forward to 2012. Call in the search teams. Since being appointed the nation’s stimulus spending cop, Sheriff Joe has taken a permanent donut break.
He’s AWOL on oversight. In fact, he’s been bubble-wrapped, boxed and kept completely out of sight. The garrulous gaffe machine hasn’t sat down for a national media interview in five months.
The Democrats’ trillion-dollar “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act,” however, keeps piling up waste, failure, fraud and debt. Who benefited most? Big government cronies. According to Investor’s Business Daily this week, a new analysis by Ohio State University economics professor Bill Dupor reported that “(m)ore than three-quarters of the jobs created or saved by President Obama’s economic stimulus in the first year were in government.”
Dupor and another colleague had earlier concluded that the porkulus was a predictable jobs-killer that crowded out non-government jobs with make-work public jobs and programs. Indeed, the massive wealth redistribution scheme “destroyed/forestalled roughly one million private sector jobs” by siphoning tax dollars “to offset state revenue shortfalls and Medicaid increases rather than boost private sector employment.”
Will this Keynesian wreckage come up during Thursday night’s vice presidential debate? It should be a centerpiece of domestic policy discussion. Nowhere is the gulf between Obama/Biden rhetoric and reality on jobs wider. Remember: Obama’s Ivy League eggheads behind the stimulus promised that “(m)ore than 90 percent of the jobs created are likely to be in the private sector.” These are the same feckless economic advisers who infamously vowed that the stimulus would keep unemployment below 8 percent — and that unemployment would drop below 6 percent sometime this year. Sheriff Joe rebuked the “naysayers” who decried the behemoth stimulus program’s waste, fraud and abuse. “You know what? They were wrong,” he crowed.
But Biden was radio silent about the nearly 4,000 stimulus recipients who received $24 billion in Recovery Act funds — while owing more than $750 million in unpaid corporate, payroll and other taxes. (Cash for Tax Cheats, anyone?)
He had nothing to say about:
<><> $6B in Homeowners' stimulus energy credits showered on nearly 1/3 of credit-claimers who had no record of homeownership, including minors and prisoners.
<><> $530 million dumped into profligate Detroit public schools for laptops and other electronics that had little, if any, measurable academic benefits.
<><> the whopping $6.7 million cost per job under the $50 billion stimulus-funded green energy loan program —
<><> stimulus funded politically connected (now bankrupt) solar firms,
<><> money laundries included Solyndra ($535M ), Abound Solar ($40M), Beacon Power ($43M), A123 ($250M) and Ener1 ($119M).
<><> $1 million stimulus went to Big Bird and Sesame Street “to promote healthy eating,” which created a theoretical “1.47” jobs (about $726,000 per job created.”)
<><> hundreds of stimulus millions to govt GSA junkets in Las Vegas and Hawaii,
<><> hundreds of millions to ghost congressional districts, dead people,
<><> hundreds of millions for infrastructures to nowhere and ubiquitous stimulus propaganda road signs stamped with the shovel-ready logo.
Of course, there’s no example of unfettered stimulus squandering more fitting than the one named after Keystone Fiscal Kop Joe Biden himself. Government-funded Amtrak’s Wilmington, Del., station raked in $20 million in “recovery” money after heavy personal lobbying by the state’s most prominent customer and cheerleader. In return, the station (which came in $6 million over budget, according to The Washington Times) renamed its facility after Biden. Bloated costs.
Crony political narcissism. Glaring conflicts of interest. Monumental waste.
This is the Obama/Biden stimulus legacy bequeathed to our children and their grandchildren. Sheriff Joe and his plundering boss need to be run out of town on a rail.

Biden knows he's toast......but there's plenty of money to be made just being a candidate.
Joe will "collapse" just as soon as Hunter sews up all the deals and shakedowns.
