With impeachment drawing headlines, and Bernie Sanders sucking all the air out of the room with socialist schemes, Joe Biden is back to making gaffes, except that in this age of fantastical impeachment charges and unreal socialist schemes, gaffes are just business as usual.
Here are three idiocies from Biden this week and this was just Tuesday:
Former Vice President Joe Biden claimed on Tuesday that illegal immigrants in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program are “more American than most Americans” because they had “done well in school.”
Biden, who recently said he believed drunk driving should not be crime that warrants deportation, made the statement during a campaign rally in Ames, Iowa.
Fact-check for old Joe: DACA recipients as a whole are underachievers, ranking well below most Americans in academic achievement, including learning English, as well as adherence to rule of law.
Here's what a Harvard study found:
In an ongoing study called the National UnDACAmented Research Project, Harvard researcher Roberto G. Gonzalez has surveyed more than 2,000 self-identified DACA recipients about their education levels. He found that 22 percent have earned a bachelor’s degree, compared to about 32 percent of all Americans who hold a bachelor’s degree, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
Gonzalez also found that 21 percent of DACA recipients have dropped out of high school, far above the national dropout rate of 5.9 percent, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.

GAFFE #2:
From Breitbart News:
Former Vice President Joe Biden once again ridiculed the notion that the United States should take a tougher stance against China amid fresh revelations that the 2020 Democrats youngest son, Hunter Biden, forged lucrative business agreements with mysterious Chinese firms.
We talk about China as our competitor, we should be helping and benefiting ourselves by doing that, Biden told supporters during a Tuesday campaign event in Ames, Iowa. But the idea that China is going to eat our lunch Its like I remember the debates in the late nineties remember Japan was going to own us? Give me a break.
Biden argues that China wouldn’t dream of eating our lunch despite doing just that to dozens of countries in the third world, particularly in Africa and Latin America, effectively enacting economic colonial takeovers.
GAFFE #3:
Gaffe Three. According to the Washington Examiner:
2020 Democratic front-runner Joe Biden said his administration would fire Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who arrest and deport illegal immigrants who are not guilty of felony crimes, adding that he doesn’t “count drunk driving as a felony.”
The former vice president made the comments at a Vice News forum on minority issues in Des Moines, Iowa, on Monday evening.
Way to win them over among the lawmen, Ordinary Joe. So much for the Irish cop thing
Biden’s incoherence is being covered up by claims of Stuttering.
I think this is an ideal way to cover up his idiocy. So many people will rush to his defense (Captain Sully for example)
Don’t give up on Joe Biden just yet. He is still the runaway favorite of the Democrats and the money people.
And with both Bernie and Fauxocohantas sidelined for the duration of the Senate trial on the charges of impeachment, the field is almost clear for Joe.
Only obstacle now is Mayor Pete. Because Joe being Joe is no disadvantage to most Democrats.
Hey Monica, it’s Groping Joe, not Malarky Joe.
Trump and the Republican party savaged Hunter........my surviving son.
The drunk driving statement is rich, considering that Joe maintains that the truck driver who was in the accident that killed his first wife was impaired, despite evidence to the contrary.
Uncle Joe has made a lot of hay recounting how his first wife got killed by a drunk driver (who actually wasn’t). I guess it only matters if the person who is drunk is white.
I live in Eastern Washington and I would estimate over 90% of the car crashes, and the deaths as a result therefrom, are caused by Hispanics. Anytime I hear of crash on the news, my first comment is that they are Hispanic. That’s not racist, it’s just the new normal.
