As former Vice President Joe Biden’s camp scrambles to contain any political damage over his past behavior with women, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has some words of advice: Keep your distance.

“Join the straight-arm club,” Pelosi told a breakfast hour Washington event on Tuesday.

In other words, keep your handshakes at arms’ length and don’t be touchy-feely.

“Just pretend you have a cold and I have a cold,” Pelosi said.

Pelosi, D-Calif., told the event, which was sponsored by Politico, that Biden “has to understand that in the world we are in now people’s space is important to them and what’s important is how they receive it, not necessarily how you intended it.”

No in Joe’s case “pretend you have syphilis”

It could work. I know I pretend that every leftie I meet has the bubonic plague. Sure works for me!

That will just make him want to lick their upper lip and stick his tongue in their nostril - “There feel better? That tasted great.”

Hell, I wish he’d just pretend he had a brain.
