BIDEN READS HIS NOTES, POORLY
Powerline ^ | AUGUST 28, 2020 | SCOTT JOHNSON

Posted on 08/28/2020 8:33:46 AM PDT by Hojczyk

With characteristic accuracy and eloquence, Joe Biden misquoted Kellyanne Conway and asserted that “these guys are rooting for violence.” What guys? President Trump and the Trump team. So Biden said in the course of comments he made to Anderson Cooper on CNN yesterday. CNN’s editorially heavy “story” on the “interview” is posted here. Paul Mirengoff provided a close analysis of Biden’s assertion here.

Has Biden ever said a discouraging word about the BLM/Antifa thugs operating at will in Portland and elsewhere? Or about their allies in the Democratic Party? I don’t think so. In the “interview,” Biden asserts that he denounced violent protests “a long time ago,” adding that there is “no justification whatsoever for violence or looting” because it “takes away from the whole rationale for what is happening here.”

What is happening here? Don’t ask Biden. Cooper certainly didn’t.

The entire 10-minute “interview” is posted here on YouTube. CNN has posted a three-minute clip here. Most notably, the “interview” vividly put Biden’s diminished mental capacity on display (tweet below). CNN somehow overlooked this element of the story.

Nancy sure knows how to save a dime on her campaign.

I was astounded to learn from Biden during this interview, that over 100 Million Americans have pre-existing conditions. (although I might agree with him after watching the mental ward escapees at the various riots)

It's unavoidable....Biden is suffering from dementia.

Something is up. Their internal polls must be cratering.

100 million out of 330 million? Seems a bit far fetched.

When you consider all of the registered Democrats in the country, the number seems about right!

They are right. I want the Dems and the Far Left to continue to do what they are currently doing. I want the establishment Dems to continue to be so paralyzed with fear of the Far Left that they can only issue the most mild, generic, tepid condemnations of violent radicalism and the outright criminality riding its coattails. I want more “interviews” of Biden like the one in the links; I want more frank on-air admissions of damage to the campaign like the one by Don Lemon;

I want more raids on business districts and justifications of it as “reparations” and “covered by insurance”; I want more incidents in residential neighborhoods; etc., etc. I want the Far Left to continue to “mostly peacefully protest” so we can have plenty of videos and still images of what that exactly means.

The only thing I want to change is for the GOP to start pounding the Dems with campaign ads pointing out their complicity and collusion in all the violence.

Notice how the media presents Bidens accusation without comment like they do with Trump. What comment you say. The “without proof” that they always add after Trump says something about the Dems or Biden.

The “satellite hiccup” was odd. Also there was a clear non sequitur when Cooper asked about George Blake and Biden apparently responded by talking about Kyle Rittenhouse.

While I do not believe Biden was responding spontaneously - I was less clear what he was reading. Did he have multiple teleprompters? He seldom looked directly into the camera but tend to look down and to his left. Can anybody shed any light on what the set up might have been?

“100 million out of 330 million? Seems a bit far fetched.”

Not when you consider what is considered a pre existing condition. Doesn’t BLM think white skin is a pre existing racist condition? And I am not being sarcastic though it can be hard to tell.
