During a campaign event in Urbandale, Iowa, Tuesday, Democratic gaffe-machine Joe Biden mistakenly asserted that Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. were “assassinated in the ‘70s -- late 70s.”
Both men, of course, were assassinated in 1968.
Making matters worse, the Dem frontrunner went on to suggest that women don't know anything about the hippy subculture of the sixties, but he was happy to mansplain it to them.
"Up until that time -- remember -- none of you women would know this, but a couple of men may remember -- that was a time in the early and late sixties and early sixties and sixties where it was 'drop out. Go to Haight Ashbury, don't get engaged, don't trust anyone over 30,'" he stammered.
If you're not sure what he was trying to convey there, join the club.
This blunder is just the latest in a series of embarrassing Biden blunders on the campaign trail that are giving Democrat activists heartburn.
During a stump speech in Iowa earlier this month, Biden also flubbed his standard campaign line, “we choose truth over lies,” saying instead, “we choose truth over facts.” Twice in one day, Biden claimed that while he was vice president, he had met with Parkland students following the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School that left 17 dead. Of course, the shooting in Parkland, Fla., took place on February 14, 2018–over a year after he left the White House.
For some reason, Biden also keeps confusing long-dead Margaret Thatcher with more current female leaders like former British Prime Minister Theresa May and German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

” Just buy a shotgun and shoot through the door..pew..pew..pew.”
Will Joe drop out before the caucus in Iowa?
Amyloid protein appears to be coating Biden’s brain like peanut butter on a Ritz cracker. Next stop, adult diapers!
Shit for brains + dementia = Biden
I certainly believe he said it but I don’t understand why the actual quote isn’t in the story.
Meanwhile, various folks in the media are focusing on Trump’s case of Alzheimer’s and how the 25th Amendment can be used to get rid of him,
Ya learn something new every day.
ACTUAL QUOTE:
“When Bobby Kennedy and Dr. King had been assassinated in the 70s, the late 70s when I got engaged,”

Biden needs to stop talking.
I find it hard to believe that the DEM establishment is going to allow this guy to fumble it up. Like Obama telling him, Joe, you don’t have to do this, don’t embarrass yourself and ruin what’s left of my legacy.
Attaboy Joe, a genuine history savant!
Bobby and MLK are Dem hagiography. It’s inconceivable any Democrat who is not severely mentally impaired would say they were assassinated in the ‘70s.
This gaffe might just be a defacto campaign ender for Sleepy Creepy.
Oh, well, as Jill says, Dems should “swallow a little bit” while other said “embrace the suck”.
At least it’s better than Mayor Pete who thinks God is a flaming homo.
Sure they were. Both were shot by Son of Sam. Brian Williams was there. < /sarc >
When he was younger he could lie with the best of them.
If he was as sharp as 77 Year Old Judge Judy I would be worried.
Under Average Joe is at it again!
