Complete Headline: Joe Biden said in a private meeting he's keeping his 2020 options open - and a presidential run is a real possibility

Former Vice President Joe Biden is tiptoeing toward a potential run in 2020, even broaching the possibility during a recent gathering of longtime foreign policy aides.

Huddled in his newly opened office steps from the US Capitol, Biden began a planning meeting for his new diplomacy center by addressing the elephant in the room. He said he was keeping his 2020 options open, considering it a real possibility.

We can look forward to a vicious rat fight! (Since they all think that beating Trump will be a cake walk, the Democrat primaries are going to be epic!)

> besides Maxine Waters, I can’t think of an easier opponent for Trump! <

I don’t know about that. In 2016 Trump won a few rust-belt states, but by very narrow margins. Many blue-collar folks in those states went for Trump. But trust me, those guys like Biden a lot.

‘... Slo Joe is definitely an alternative to Trump!’

we can laugh all we want; if Biden had run in 2016, Trump’s election would have come down to WI and MI, because he would have delivered Luzerne and Northhampton counties, his old stomping grounds, and most likely Erie county as well, swinging the state...

that said, he has no chance now, as he’ll be pushing 80...

Joe was the sponsor for the School gun free zone law which I believe Bush Sr. Signed.

He will be a force to be contended with, if he runs. But I think the dems will nominate a radical, America-hating muzzy-loving sob, such as keith ellison. With mouchelle obammy as VP.

Thanks. I was wondering when someone would post all those pictures of his sorry rear end.

I agree with you. Biden would have been formidable in 2016. His many faults would have been ignored by the mainstream media.

As for 2020, I still think he’d be formidable, despite his age. Again, the media would cover for him. One could say that Trump would destroy him in the debates...but that all depends on who’s asking the questions.

We have the Faux Princess, Maxine Waters, Kamala Harris ( I will sleep with anyone) Chuckie Schumer; Spittle Kennedy; The Mayor of the World deBlasio, Mittens Romney; Botox Pelosi. With a bench that deep, Trump should just step down now and avoid the embarrassment of losing.
Then there is the Zombie candidate waiting for the full moon to rise again from the dead, Hillary. Can she run from jail?

All of the positive effects from, JUST, all of the tax cuts should make Trump’s re-election a cinch, if he wants to run again. Ditto, The GOP Congress. Unfortunately, The Stupid Party keeps finding ways of being stupid and missing out on opportunities to make significant political gains. All of the RINOS and all of the “Anti-Trump GOPers” aren’t helping much, either.

Hey, now. Let’s not rule Maxi out for VP. I can just hear the slogan now: America’s woke!

And she’s one female Joe probably won’t sexually assault.

Old Media will position Biden as a “centrist” as they blast their propaganda far and wide. But will Biden remain a viable candidate (age aside) when the details of the Trump surveillance operation are known more fully and the underlying FISA application and other documents have been made public? I have my doubts about that! After all, a recent poll found most already believed that Obama’s crew improperly “wiretapped” Trump’s campaign.

Can anyone explain to me why the Dems have defended these misdeeds? After all, Clinton and Obama are the party’s past. Why not just distance themselves from it? It could well get bad enough that even Old Media’s whitewashing can’t hide the truth.

Exactly. Creepy Joe is old and a little too grabby for the current Dem political focus. But if he ends up being the nominee for some pathetic reason, the Dems will drop #MeToo like a hot potato and we’ll be back to a variation of “its just lies about sex” theme.

Hillary is not going to jail.
No participant of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will be prosecuted.
The fact is there is no one in DC except Trump who was not complicit.

Old timers might remember the 1988 presidential election in which Biden was a candidate. He was did in for plagiarizing the speeches of other politicians (some of them almost word for word).

Biden is a mega horse’s ass who, on his own, couldn’t get elected dog catcher.

Go fondle some little girls, Joe...that’s all you are good at.
