They say that if you live long enough, youll get to experience nearly everything, and so it has been for Joe Biden, who has lived to see historys first Zoom presidential campaign. Unfortunately for him, its his.
Nobody looks good on Zoomor FaceTime or Skype or any of the other online simulacra of human interaction that the lockdown has forced upon us. It diminishes all the distractions and intangibles that give life texture and zest, that make life seem rather pleasanter than it is. Did anyone fully understand just how unfunny late-night talk-show hosts aretake your pick; I pick Stephen Colbertuntil the pandemic forced them online and deprived them of the Pavlovian and highly implausible laughter of their studio audiences? So too with political campaigns.

I can picture his hesitant stuttering and mumbling “enhanced” by the little glitches that tend to happen with these streaming methods...might make him look dumber than.......Biden.
Thanks.

One of my GOP friends works for Fox Sports L.A. TeLLs me all the time there is a memo to MINIMIZE Zoom etc interviews because the interviewee comes in UGLY. Period.
That’s why Trump wont do it.
Unlike studio interviews complete with make up etc and a camera resolution minimizing pixel effect erasing wrinkles etc.
The left hopes the CV19 crisis continues past the election. That way there will not be a debate Trump vs biden. I want there to be a debate! Trump would trounce gropey-joe.
Here’s how it might start: “Good evening, Joe. Did you get a good sleep? Do you know where you are?”
Oh, good Lord! I've been wondering FOREVER how Stephen Colbert ever got to be famous, or in the position he's in. I've asked repeatedly on this forum whether, in some alternate universe, there is a funny version of Stephen Colbert. I got one reply that it was crazy to think that there is a funny version of Stephen Colbert anywhere, and I actually had to agree with that. That guy is like listening to my grandma reading a phone book.
So is the Atlantic.
On Zoom I look like a crazy old man who badly needs a haircut—totally accurate! ;-)
Text “JOE” to... to ... uh
When I hear from his basement, I keep thinking of the guy from Heaven’s Gate shown in front of a curtain. But people still have no idea how Socialism correlates to that while they are still living off the fat from Capitalism, better hope you are politically connected if this guy wins.
The description is hilarious!
But he's a fitting representative of the Democrat Party, which is a Disaster,
And an excellent prediction of what America would be if the Democrats were able to seize control of her: a Disaster!

Yep! I used it a few times to interact with grandkids and it’s a pain. Better than nothing in these situation, but hardly something pleasant.
The Zoom stock has been zooming the past couple of months. I think after this virus is over with it everybody will stop using it and will come back down to earth.
Biden is a DISASTER.
OH yeah...
What irony that you would post a cartoon of Joe Biden as a fool.
No one illustrated their own foolishness as much as you have in the past few months, posting picture after picture proclaiming untold numbers of deaths from Corona.
Or, maybe you werent such a fool after all. Maybe you knew who was buttering your bread as you made the American people out for the fools.
