"So what?": South Carolina Democrats not bothered by Joe Biden's gaffes

Gaffney, South Carolina — In the past month alone, Joe Biden has confused New Hampshire for Vermont, compared poor kids to white kids, and said he met with students from the 2018 Parkland shooting while he was vice president. He told an audience he wasn't "going nuts," after he failed to remember the exact location of a speech he had just given. And a story he told about awarding a war hero turned out not to be entirely true.

The string of summer slip-ups would seem to reinforce Biden's gaffe-prone reputation and raise questions about his central pitch of electability. But for many voters who came to see him during a campaign swing through early voting state South Carolina, the former vice president's slips of the tongue made him all the more endearing.

Biden could walk around with a slobber bib and it wouldn’t matter. Most Dems would vote for Hitler if he was running against Trump.

Joe Biden is a serial sexual predator and child molesting pervert. He’s also a liar, a con man and a thief. He is no man by any stretch of the imagination.

For 90% of Democrats if Stalin were running, they would vote for him as long as he affirmed abortion, gay rights, and global warming.

yeah the Rats might not care but the electorate who decides in a general election will.. they will not vote for a person who can’t remember what was just discussed in a meeting they were just in.. can’t anyone in the media just say it.. is this like the emperor is wearing no clothes?.. I’ll say it.. he has EARLY STAGE DEMENTIA and it is a progressive medical condition.. you can see him fighting it almost every time he speaks.. it’s not uncommon in elderly people.. Most of us old enough have seen it in our own families whether it was a grandparent or parent

As pitiful as Biden is, he loses by less than any of the others, so they are trying to save him and hoping for a miracle.

The only purpose of backing Biden is to get him elected along with the person they really want to win but who is “unelectable” running for the top spot. If Joe somehow wins his days are numbered.

Biden is NOT going to be the Democrat’s candidate. He is a place holder.

So, it does not matter if he comes across as someone that is losing touch with reality, in fact, for the Democrat leadership that is a plus. It will make it easier to do the bait and switch.

Biden’s role is to suck all the air out of the primaries so none of the other 100 clowns can gain traction leaving the door open for the real candidate.

The more I see these clowns move to the left the more I am convinced they will bring someone in that although a liberal Democrat will appear to be a “moderate”.

Who will it be?

Old joke in the Palmetto State:

“Oh, the monkeys ain’t got no tails in Gaffney!”

It’s a town that never recovered when all the textile mills went away.

Or the Bamster, himself. Does the Amendment allow for a two term president to run as vice president?

“There are some ideas that are so preposterous, only an intellectual could believe them.” George Orwell

IQ is important to you? Check Joe Biden’s. His might be lower than SC or your state’s.
IQ is not important in a “Democracy.” (sad)
What’s in your wallet?

Biden may have the absolute loyalty of his supporters, it is doubtful that his behavior will ATTRACT any new followers.

I think his numbers will remain steady with no increases. Or not.
