‘This is horrendous. We’re all scared!’ Joe Biden adviser admits campaign is in meltdown after he collapses to FIFTH place in New Hampshire and flees to South Carolina to save his 'firewall'
UK Daily Mail ^ | February 12, 2020 | Katelyn Caralle

Behind Joe Biden's brave-faced campaign, advisers are 'scared' after the former vice president performed so poorly in the first caucus and primary of Iowa and New Hampshire, coming in fourth and fifth place respectively.

'This is horrendous. We're all scared,' a Biden adviser to Politico, speaking anonymously since the comments conflict with the face the campaign is broadcasting.

'I think we're going to make it to South Carolina. I know we're supposed to say we're going to and we're going to win. But I just don't know,' the adviser admitted.

Biden fled New Hampshire before the polls even closed at 8:00 p.m. Tuesday night and instead live-streamed into his primary night event, which are traditionally attended by the candidate.

I’m afraid to say that Joe reminds me a lot of how my dad sounded the year and a half before we got an official diagnosis of Alzheimer’s.

Yep. He's got the vacant, 1000 yard stare, easily angered, and seems to be trying to recite points crammed into him the day before. And he's certainly in the prime age group for the emergence of dementia.

‘Uh...guys. This is a stunner.’

why? He had no opposition; in 2016, 77,000 NH votes were split between Kasich and Cruz...

I haven’t taken part in a poll in many years. Thanks to telemarketers, bill collectors and other scammers pestering us almost every day, my wife and I don’t answer phone calls from numbers we don’t recognize. Therefore most of the people surveyed in polls are folks who don’t have anything better to do with their time.

Good. Biden has no business wanting to be president. I think he’s running pro forma. He wanted to satisfy his underperforming ego, and it failed. Bye bye gropey joe!

Are you suggesting that the African-American community would not be enthusiastic about a gay president? That seems racist.

If anything, I think it would be considered homophobic.

Behind Joe Biden’s brave-faced campaign

Brave faced? How can you see his “Brave” face when he keeps giving up and running to the next primary state ahead of his defeat in his rear view mirror.

dumb, crook, woman sniffer, child kisser, groper

None of that bothers the dim base but the insulting and mental disorder is self evident to dim observers as he debates and campaigns. My take is this is what is doing him in more than anything else Even if its not stated overtly the dims have to be spooked watching him in action.

Shock...an old straight white guy that is creepy with children and can hardly put a sentence together isn’t doing well. What are his great ideas again? ....hmmm, can’t think of one.

He’s been done for a while - it just took actual votes for it to be exposed. The only reason Bernie is doing ‘well’ is because there’s a radical leftist group within the D party that love his communism. This doesn’t excite the general D voter. Turnout will be low for him in the general election.

It’s pathetic to see just how chaotic the D party is right now. All of their identity party politics is coming back to bite them. If they assume that all the non-Bernie D’s will vote for him in a general election they’re fooling themselves. Blacks and Latino’s will vote for PDJT in record numbers. The D party hasn’t seen the worst of things yet.

So I expect even more extreme insanity from them as this election approaches...if that is possible.

Byedone will bail as soon as the first poll is taken in South Carolina. Stick a fork in that idiot.

...for unspecified health reasons, right?

We are seeing and hearing daily why he has never won a primary election/caucus?

He is rude and dumb.

I do not think it is a conspiracy.

Rudy was the GOP frontrunner in every poll and he flopped in the early states....and he made no major gaffes or had major scandals.

The early polls are all about name recognition.

Barr needs to call Biden into the Justice Dept. and offer him no prison time for him and Hunter if they roll on everyone else including Hillary andObama. I think he realizes now he will never be president and if he could salvage a plea deal he might take it.

Both parties are in rebellion against their leadership. The rebellion has won in Republican land. It’s Trump’s party.

The Dem establishment has only the paper tiger Biden. I think he will be stronger in SC, but he’s kind of a parallel to Jeb, the “normal” guy should get his turn next.

Dem leadership will turn to Bloomberg soon, he’s all they’ve got left. The rest aren’t presidential material.

Did you notice the choreography between Buttigieg, his mom and his husband? Put mom in the middle to soften the image for the victory speech. Can’t just have the two gay guys up there holding hands.

But you cannot be "scared." What a whiny complaint.

Of course they can be scared. They can be scared their fat paychecks from the campaign are going to stop. They can also be scared that they won't get cushy, high-paying jobs in a Biden administration. They can also be scared that they won't be able to leverage those high-paying jobs into high-paying lobbyist positions, seats at the MSNBC desk, or perhaps even seats on the board of Burisma.

This might be the real reason for the shampeachment.

For whatever reason, the DNC wanted to sink Biden and they knew the shampeachment would do it.

And it did it.

He would have sunk anyway, of course. But this sunk him much faster.

Shampeachment was the iceberg that sunk the Joe-tanic.

“Klobuchar is the biggest threat.”

Tru dat!

As a dark horse, watch for an announced Buttplug+HELLary ticket proposal during the primaries.

I believe Biden is on his 3rd POTUS run. He has never won a primary or caucus.

It's telling that Obama advised against his own VP running - after 8 years with the guy, he obviously saw this train wreck coming.
