Meet the man who says Biden has a ‘wet noodle for a backbone’
NY Post ^ | December 5, 2019 | 5:13pm | Tamar Lapin

The Iowa man who challenged Joe Biden during a campaign event on Thursday told The Post he had no regrets about the heated exchange.

“I’m positive 90% of the people there didn’t know about his son working on the board in Ukraine. I wanted it brought out there,” said 83-year-old Merle Gorman, referring to Biden’s son Hunter’s job at a Ukrainian gas company.

“If it educated them a little bit, so be it,” Gorman said. “I’m glad it happened.”

During a routine campaign stop in New Hampton, Gorman set the former vice president off when he accused him of sending Hunter to work for Burisma Holdings.

“You’re a damn liar, man. That’s not true. And no one has ever said that,” Biden, 77, raged.

Gorman said: “The exchange speaks for itself. He didn’t have the guts to explain the situation, and that’s what I wanted.”

“He got pissed off and stomped around … he wasn’t happy at all,” Gorman continued. “He started mumbling, saying it wasn’t true.”

“After today, he told me what he’s made out of … he’s got a wet noodle for a backbone.”

Gorman, who said he is a Marine Corps veteran and retired farmer, went to the event because it was taking place a couple of blocks from his home, and was spurred to ask about Hunter’s Ukraine dealings after hearing the other questions from the crowd.

“All the others were softballs questions, they might as well have been asking him what color the chandelier was in the vice president’s office,” Gorman said.

Good for him. Missionaries come in all shapes and sizes.

Too bad he didn’t follow up with “Congratulations on becoming a Grandpa again. How is the new grand baby doing?” That might have triggered a brain aneurysm.

Dems tried so hard to make Hunter into a victim........but outside of Deep State, Hunter is seen as
a widow-diddling opportunist with the an insatiable sex drive and an industrial strength penis on steroids.

Hunter has made millions exploiting his father's political connections. Even scarier....his father was grooming him for elective office (yikes).

It's impossible to believe, seeing Hunter constantly at his father's side --------speaking authoritatively from the VP's podium (above)------- that Joe Biden would not ask Hunter where he's getting tons of money to support his expensive cocaine habit, his lifestyle, his various girlfriends and children.

Spending $thousands at gentlemen's clubs where he impregnated a stripper never got a even a smidgen of interest from his dad?

“Thanks Hunter-- my bank statement arrived. And Michelle loved the diamond from China you sent over.”

Here’s the most important detail about Dems’ salivating over impeachment: Hunter Biden is a scumbag, and no one gives a hoot that Trump tried to get dirt on him.

So basically Joe called a Marine a “da** liar?” That will make a great commercial for his opponent.

Hunter also took that old lady's marble rye.

If the Deep State wants to get rid of Joey, they might just do that.

Trump and Rush will hammer Joe over this, if they want to.

Wait, nobody else that was there had ever heard of Hunter Biden? We’re about to impeach the President for a phone call and these Iowa voters don’t even know why the Dems are doing it? Do they have TV and electricity in Iowa yet? Why do the polls in Iowa get more attention than Groundhog Day? They’re about as important.

Mr. Biden may have a wet noodle for a backbone but he sure has a wet noodle for a brain.

Merle Gorman served his country and his word is above reproach.

If it’s good enough for Mr. “You can address me as Colonel” it should be ten fold for Mr Merle Gorman !

The Democrat Party is littered with more carcasses than Jeffrey Dahmer’s kitchen.

The Democrat press just says that Trump was trying to get dirt on Biden. No details provided.

I find it believable that 80% of DEM voters don’t know about Hunter Biden’s association with Burisma, or they reject the fact as right wing conspiracy theory.
