President Joe Biden has never been accused of having a gilded tongue. In fact, he once referred to himself as a "gaffe machine."
But after a meandering speech in summer 2015, his top aides let loose their frustrations in a private communication to the then-vice president's son Hunter.
"He just couldn't end the speech," senior White House aide Gregory Schultz exclaimed to the VP's youngest son, in apparent disbelief.
The newly surfaced email, recovered by Just the News from a laptop Hunter Biden left behind at a Delaware repair shop and later turned over to the FBI, provides a rare glimpse into the Biden inner circle's efforts to corral the oft-bumbling, gaffe-prone speechmaker.
File FW Remarks by the Vice President to Generation Progress Make Progress National Summit.pdf "He went off script almost every 2 to 3 paragraphs, and did all the self-referential stuff we cut out," Biden speech writer Vinay Reddy wrote in frustration, attaching the final transcript of Joe Biden's July 16, 2016 speech to the Generation Progress annual convention in Washington D.C.
Reddy appeared to be particularly concerned that the vice president had ad-libbed remarks slamming Democrats for their reliance on dark money, just as the 2016 presidential race was heating up.
"This speech was pretty much everywhere, including why the Democratic Party should look to itself in curbing dark money 'not that I am talking about any particular person,'" Reddy lamented.
The email string also reveals that Hunter Biden — struggling with drug addiction, a crumbling marriage and a Ukraine business controversy — apparently weighed in on his father's speech draft.
"Hey Hunter — I know you were involved on this a little bit — so wanted to pass along from Vinay (speech writer)," Schultz wrote the Biden son. "Went great......and then he just couldn't end the speech."
Biden's rhetorical ad-libbing continues to get him in trouble, even now as the 46th president.
He was sharply criticized late last month for "creepy" comments during a Memorial Day weekend speech where he went off script to make comments about the 7-year-old daughter of a veteran.
"I love those barrettes in your hair," Biden said to the child in the audience. "Man, I'll tell you what, look at her. She looks like she's 19 years old sitting there like a little lady with her legs crossed."
Here are four of President Biden's more historically infamous speaking moments:
The 1987 attack on a New Hampshire voter. "I probably have a much higher IQ than you do, I suspect," Biden barked as he rattled off an academic record that, reporters later found, was mostly contrived, including an instance of plagiarism.
The 7-Eleven joke. Biden was lambasted in 2006 by American-Indian groups after he took a stab at ethnic humor, stereotyping Indo-Americans in a "joke" that backfired politically. "You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. And I'm not joking!" he declared.
Called troops "stupid bastards" and "dull." Biden raised eyebrows worldwide when during a 2016 speech with U.S. troops stationed in Abu Dhabi he became peeved they did not embrace one of his jokes. "Clap for that, you stupid bastards," the vice-president commanded. "... Man, you are a dull bunch."
Derided Iowa voter as "fat" and a "damn liar." When an Iowa voter challenged him on the trail in 2019, Biden let loose with a tirade. "You're a damn liar, man," Biden snapped at Merle Gorman "And by the way, I'm not sedentary. Let's do push-ups together, man, let's run, let's do whatever you want to do. Let's take an IQ test, all right?"
Hunter knows he’s as safe as a kitten. Neither “the press” nor the Harris/Biden Department of Just Us cares about him in the least.
“Stand up Chuck!”
Years ago, I was involved with an industry event regarding China's accession to WTO, where several senators were invited to a breakfast with CEOs in our industry, followed by a Q&A sessions about the issue.
Biden, being the Sr. Senator at the time, spoke first to make introductions - and he didn't stop. He babbled on stupidly for over 1 hour and 15 minutes. No one else got to speak and he used up all the time for Q&A.
Alas, Babble on!................
Yeah, that should have ended anybodys political career.But not a Democrats. They keep on gaffeing and keep on laughing.
He is delusional. All will be found out and consequences will be served. He judges what he believes is true in his own little world, but there is a whole world that is unseen by him. For example, Rod Blagojevich found that out the hard way. Nothing is kept hidden: Numbers 32:23.
“Look, fat..”
Most votes in the history of the country. Uh huh.
And they stole the election and gave it to him. They could have ran hillary again and gave it to her.
Even THEY did not want H.
Uncontrollable...........................
Yeah makes sense. But they way they did the steal was so in the people (our) faces.
Evidence from his sons laptop that has him getting money illegally and the media and social media won’t report it. He is bought off from china.
Many women coming out and saying he did weird crap to them, even pelosi said something and it’s suppressed.
He stayed in his basement and couldn’t draw more than 10 people at a rally. Heck even obama could not help him,
You would think they could have picked someone else to control. And the way they did it was so obvious is scary. They actually got away with stealing the election and nothing has happened yet. Let’s hope something happens soon.
In another year he won’t speak, all communication will be written for him and sent out.
So is ABCNNBCBSNYTWAPOPBSNPR.................
It’s the only explanation of why they are not covering the evidence of the stolen election. Or the laptop. Or anything other than bashing Trump. Fox caved on election night and turned on Trump. I watch OAN or newsmax now. Or get my news from here. Lol.
