After a shocking turnaround in his campaign — he was nearly left for dead after his crushing defeat in New Hampshire, only to become the presumptive nominee after Super Tuesday — Joe Biden was ready to pivot to a general election campaign against President Trump.
But then the coronavirus hit the United States, and the ex-veep’s campaign has struggled mightily to deal with the political fallout.
Trump has utterly eclipsed his would-be rival. And when Biden has been heard from, he has looked frankly pathetic. After disappearing for more than a week after his primary victories in Missouri, Michigan and Washington, Biden emerged this week for a series of speeches and interviews from his Wilmington, Del., home.
This would be a major challenge for a Winston Churchill or Franklin Roosevelt. For Biden, it turned out to be impossible. His public statements this week have been unfocused, error-ridden, full of awkward gaffes. They ran directly contrary to the message that his campaign is trying to convey: that he is battle-tested and ready to handle any crisis. Unsurprisingly, the Biden campaign canceled a major address.
So what is his team going to do? Probably very little for now. The news is all coronavirus, all the time. If Biden doesn’t have anything productive to add to that conversation, he isn’t going to be involved in it.

No need to state the obvious: he doesn't have anything productive to add. To the best of my knowledge, the man has never said or done anything worth remembering in his entire career, other than the times he publicly insulted voters and called them nasty names.
#8. It was not Lao Tsu who said “When your enemy is killing himself, sit back and enjoy the popcorn”.
It was CORNPOP who said that when Biden started his “war dance” before their upcoming rumble in the alley.
Does Cuomo actually want to risk being Mondaled by Trump?
BYEden!
He just needs to step out on his porch and fire a couple of shotgun blasts to get the media’s attention.
I thought your spouse was supposed to step in. Where is Jill saing, “Enough is enough.” Does she care? Is she power hungry? This man belongs at home.

Re “Does Cuomo actually want to risk being Mondaled by Trumps”?
Does rationality, sanity, common sense and patriotism run in the Cuomo “La Famila”? Father was a protector of the Mafia - made a major statement that the Mafia didn’t really exist and that it was mainly a smear project against Italians (someday I’ll find that quote. Believe it was in the NY Times about 30 years ago).
I worked on an Organized Crime Task Force including the major families in New York. The Mafia really does exist.
Fredo “Christ I’m Stupid” Cuomo. Need I say anything about sanity, civility, or honesty in the Cuomo mental menagerie?
Andrew is going for the “Big Lebowski”, the “Big Enchillada”, the “Big Cannoli”. He’s got to do it now because if Trump wins another 4 years, his political career will have come to an end with no place to go until 2024.
Biden would start being POTUS at the age Trump will be at the end of his second term.
And Biden gets yugely more hours of sleep per day than the Orange Man [he bad].
“Coronavirus Is Killing The Biden Campaign — And Making Him Look Like A Fool”
uh, huh. Biden doesn’t need coronavirus to make him look like a fool, because he already looks like a fool with no outside help at all simply because biden IS a fool ...
yup
I think it was Biden who said that Iraq would well be divided into three parts; Shia, Sunni, and Kurds.
SNORT
It’s definitely time to play another round of “Hide The Geezer.”
My bad🤔
LOL! Really? It ain’t any virus. Butt, consider the source.
It’d be weird if Biden got the bug and died. How ironic that would be after all he’s done for the communists over there LOL
.....”Biden is killing Biden”.....
I agree but the Demrats are playing his game like they did with Hillary....for now.....keeping him on low and hiding the obvious as much as possible. Unfortunately Biden isn’t able to defend himself as she did.
Had to laugh as I understand Obama said Biden needed to “step his game now”..... which was more for the press story he said that than for Biden.
What? No <”Humor”> tag?
Biden will quit and throw his delegates to Como. (April 15th ?)
Uh, I think Perry is no longer with us.
RIP 2001
