Biden Gaffe: I'm Looking Forward to Appointing the First African American Woman Senator

Democratic candidate Joe Biden is failing. The gaffe train is moving a mile a minute and only seems to be picking up steam. During a campaign stop in South Carolina on Friday, the former VP told a crowd of supporters that he was looking forward to appointing the first African American woman to the U.S. Senate.

"Well, I'm looking forward to appointing the first African American woman to the United States Senate," Biden said as the crowd erupted in cheers. Biden supporters must be so used to the candidate's gaffes by now that they are no longer fazed by them.

Of course, as president, Biden will not have the ability to appoint senators. And even if Biden did have that ability, he would not be able to appoint the first African American woman to the U.S. Senate since Carol Moseley Braun became a senator in 1993.

Biden has a strange fixation with the Senate and the first African American woman to serve in the legislative chamber.

On the Democratic debate stage back in November, Biden touted former Sen. Braun's endorsement of his presidential campaign. Biden claimed to be endorsed by "the only African American woman who’s ever been elected to the United States Senate." To make matter worse, Sen. Kamala Harris, who is the second African American woman to serve in the Senate, was sharing the debate stage with Biden that evening.

"The other one is here!" Harris interjected awkwardly.

Joe Biden experienced what can only be called a gaffe attack earlier this month during a day of campaigning in South Carolina. In one day the candidate proclaimed he was running for the Senate, told voters they could vote for the other Biden if they so chose, and then confused the states of South Carolina and North Carolina.

"My name's Joe Biden. I'm a Democratic candidate for the United States Senate. Look me over. If you like what you see, help out. If not, vote for the other Biden. Give me a look though, OK?" Biden told his supporters.

The candidate is banking on a strong showing in South Carolina to redeem his campaign after disastrous finishes in Iowa and New Hampshire. The candidate finished a distant second in Nevada, trailing current front-runner Bernie Sanders. Biden is touting his popularity among African Americans in South Carolina, but recent polling suggests the strong support he once enjoyed among African Americans in the state has diminished considerably.

First Joe Biden mistakenly says he's a candidate for the U.S. Senate.

Now he confuses choosing a vice presidential candidate with appointing a Black woman to the U.S. Senate.

Where is the media on this one? If a Republican were to have said something that stupid, we would never hear the end of it. No wonder this country is going down the toilet, the media have let the foxes into the henhouses.

Joe is proof that a mental patient, provided he was a registered democrat, could successfully be a top 3 contender for POTUS.

“Is this after he’s elected King?”

I was thinking along the same lines, as that’s the only way this old fool could appoint a senator. And since appointing a senator could never be done before being our King, then it would be a first.

All that has to be done if he is nominee is make a campaign commercial with a montage of his gaffes and play it over and over.

I know Biden has always been a gaffe machine, but could he be ratcheting up of the gaffes to create evidence for an insanity plea when he’s arrested on charges of selling access to the WH?

I think there are enough of these to make a 2 hour video. Half the time spent showing the gaffes and the other half explaining why they’re gaffes to the RAT viewers that wouldn’t know they’re gaffes.

From there, Joe went on to claim he once struck out Ty Cobb, wrote the score for West Side Story, and invented string.

South Carolina Republicans....ya all better get your butts in high gear today and get out and cast your votes for Bernie Sanders in the ‘OPEN” Democrat Party primary election today. Why?

If Joe Biden is defeated today...it not only destroys Biden politically and removes him from the POTUS race....but....more importantly it helps to destroy the entire nutcase, Hate America, Democrat, Socialist, Communist Party.

You GOP folks sit at home...and you could get Bernie Sanders, AOC and her nutcase Muslim, Jew haters and communists and Orwellian “Big Brother” government. Believe me folks...it can happen right here in the USA!!!

GOP voters get out and vote today for Bernie Sanders...re: Operation Chaos via Rush Limbaugh and POTUS, Donald J. Trump!!! DO IT....TODAY!!!

Sadly, part of the ignominious history of our Air Force, we already did that. Look up the Thule incident.

A shame but not exactly the same as intentionally bombing them.

If ALGORE could invent the internet and be the couple in Love Story then DAFFY JOE could strike out Ty Cobb an d write West Side Story. He would probably have modeled the lead character after himself.
