Biden: QAnon believers should get a mental health check

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Friday blasted President Trump for refusing to condemn the QAnon conspiracy theory, saying adherents to the theory should get a mental health checkup before the president dismantles ObamaCare.

“I’ve been a big supporter of mental health,” Biden said. “I recommend the people that believe [QAnon] should take advantage while it still exists in the Affordable Care Act. It’s bizarre, totally bizarre.”

The president has declined to condemn the conspiracy theory, which holds that Trump and his supporters are warriors in a secret effort to uncover child sex rings led by global elites.

The FBI has deemed the loose network of QAnon adherents as a domestic terror threat following incidents in which the conspiracy theory appears to have fueled real-world violence.

When asked about QAnon at a press conference last month, Trump said he’s not familiar with it but that he believes those associated with it “love our country.”

“I understand they like me very much, which I appreciate,” Trump said. “But I don’t know much about the movement.”

Several GOP Congressional candidates have entertained the conspiracy theory, led by Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, who is favored to win a House seat in November.

Trump has praised Greene.

Biden on Friday called the conspiracy theory “embarrassing” and “dangerous.”

“Look at how it makes us look around the world,” Biden said. “It’s mortifying, embarrassing and it’s dangerous. If the president doesn’t know better, which he has to know better, then my Lord we’re in much more trouble than I thought we were.”

Perfectly describing his own campaign.

I’d have to back him in a corner on that.

I’d ask him ‘what does that even mean? Ok they get a mental health check. Then what?

"...Biden: QAnon believers should get a mental health check..."

LOL, says an adherent of Leftist dogma.

Personally, I don't believe everything that comes out of QAnon. But I don't believe a far huger percentage of things emanating from the Media. I pick and choose base on what facts I can marshal to help me understand, and that is all I do. I think anyone who slavishly believes anything now is problematic.

Biden is worried about having his source cut off.

Then he’ll have to go back to fondling Congressmen’s kids.

Or roaches who sit on his lap and caress his leg hairs.

As it SHOULD, bagster...as it should.

If there is anything the Internet has taught me, it is that there are very few sources of information that may be trusted implicitly.

Did FDR tell you that Joe when you watched him on TV?

After eight years of singing praise and worship songs to Obama, the dems call the Q kids a “cult?” Granted, they’re a bit different, but hardly “cult” or a “threat.”
