Joe Biden, the mean old man the media won't tell you about
American Thinker ^ | Monica Showalter

In the past, being labeled as 'mean' or harsh or heartless, even if one was just ironic and witty, as Bob Dole was, was political death. Nixon suffered under this standard, and so did John McCain (before his tiffs with Donald Trump). You always wanted to be the baby smoocher, anything else was political death.

But somehow Joe Biden has avoided this fate, based on a fawning press that acts as his filters, echo-chambering his phony pitch to voters as being the candidate of 'civility,' 'decency,' and 'dignity.'

Fact is, Biden is pretty mean and cranky, with a special contempt for the little guy. His handlers market him as nicer than President Trump but hard examples show the exact opposite.

Biden can't get near a voter without getting into some kind of political fight. And it's not a cute sort of pugnacity we are talking about here, it's a stone cold meanness and contempt for ordinary people with a common denominator of elitist entitlement.

Latest incident was yesterday:

It's of a piece with at least five previous incidents:

Biden is an a$$hole. Always has been.

Lucky for him he is only a minor player on the Harris-Biden ticket.;-)

When he was in Pittsburgh his staff had to rapidly intervene to keep him from getting into it with a heckler on a balcony.

My mother told me years ago that an old a-hole was nothing but a young a-hole who lived a long life.

A former colleague of mine who had traveled the globe that the same type of person is an a-hole wherever you go. “An a-hole here would also be an a-hole in Russia, China, Turkey, etc.”

What is the author referring to? What did Biden do “yesterday” as she says?

Dementia can sometimes cause people to be that way. Joe started out that way. He probably knows when to turn it off but he is the epitome of white privilege so he sees nothing wrong with berating people he feels are beneath him

I spoke to a girl who works in an assisted living facility and asked if all seniors are that way.

She said, “No...They are the ones who have always been like that, and get even MORE cranky once they reach that stage.”

I thinks it’s true. My mom was with me to the end and she NEVER behaved like that. She was a doll!

All I know is, Jill Biden must REALLY want to be FLOTUS! Otherwise, she’d look at him and feel some shame, if not GUILT. Isn’t she a doctor?

Remember Joe grabbing the female reporter by the arm and threatening her?

I noticed that but thought my browser must be blocking that video. I noticed that there is a comment on this matter at source. Perhaps Monica (the author) will respond.

She's usually a good writer.
