Joe Biden’s son Beau is dead. Did you know that? His first wife also died, as did his infant daughter, back in the 1970s. Have you heard that story? If you’ve been alive in the last 50 years and have at least one good ear, the odds of you hearing about Biden’s loss are higher than the odds of an American being successfully evacuated from Afghanistan after Joe abandoned you there. I’d never tell anyone how to grieve, but Joe Biden doesn’t grieve so much as exploit the deaths that touched his life, and it’s pretty gross.
There is no doubt that Joe Biden has suffered loss in his life. Losing your wife and infant daughter in a car accident would be devastating for anyone, no one dies that. And the sting of that loss won’t go away, even after almost 50 years. So you can’t really blame him for it still being an emotional subject for him. But he has since remarried and it has been almost 50 years, you’d think he’d stop talking about it.
There’s a fine line behind grieving and exploiting the sympathy that grief elicits. Joe Biden has always lived on the exploitation side of that line.
Throughout his Senate career, and in his previous presidential runs, his wife’s death played a major role in his campaign narrative. The story “evolved” over time, with Joe implying the driver of the other car involved in the accident was drunk and at fault. Neither was true, which makes the exploitation all the more gross.
Losing your wife and daughter is horribly sad, it doesn’t need embellishment. But Joe’s life is full of so many lies he simply can’t help himself.
When his son Beau died in 2015, Joe was again devastated. Ever since that moment, he has been using Beau’s death to elicit sympathy and to try to connect with others over their grief. Anyone who’s met Joe and talked about grief has heard about Beau. But it’s not always appropriate.
When Biden’s incompetence led to the murder of 13 American soldiers, Joe reportedly couldn’t stop talking about his own loss from 6 years earlier. As sad as I’m sure Joe Biden still is over Beau’s death, it had no similarities to the deaths of those soldiers.
Beau Biden was 46, twice the average age of the soldiers lost, and died of brain cancer, not a terrorist attack. The Biden family had time to say goodbye, none of the families of the 13 did. Joe Biden has no idea what it’s like to lose a child under those circumstances, but he simply can’t help himself.
Whereas Joe used to use his late wife and daughter to elicit sympathy from people, he now mixes in Beau. With Beau, it appears the loss is more raw – he was, after all the favorite child. If you wonder why Hunter Biden is so screwed up, look no further than Beau.
It’s not that Beau did anything, it’s that Joe clearly favored Beau – he was, after all, named Joseph Robinette Biden III. Beau was the one to carry on the family legacy, Hunter was just the bagman. Beau got the attention, adoration, and advice. When Beau died, Hunter left his own wife to take up with his brother’s widow in what appears to outsiders as an attempt to assume his life, his place in the family and his father’s heart.
It didn’t work. Hunter isn’t Beau and could never be. He spiraled deeper into drugs and other women, cheating on his sister-in-law with who knows how many people and fathering at least 1 illegitimate child. Thankfully, Joe didn’t mention that to families of the fallen heroes.
Joe shouldn’t have mentioned any of it to any of them. The event wasn’t about him, it was about those who were lost. But Joe can’t make anything not about him. He a lifelong narcissist, and vapid on top of it. Only that combination of characteristics can make a person so oblivious that they make a somber event like the returning of remains to the United States about them.
The President of the United States has a history of exploiting his personal loss for personal gain, it just backfired this time. Decorum and grief is likely the only thing that stopped one or more of these families from chewing out or even taking a swing at Biden. You’d think someone would tell him to knock it off, that it’s gross to use tragedy that way, but you’d be wrong. You’d also think a man almost 80 years wouldn’t need to be told that, which is an indication of just how stupid he really is.
Biden LIED for DECADES about his wife’s accident!! he always said that the truck driver was DRUNK....he was NOT and SHE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF HIM!!! That man NEVER got another job because of Biden’s LIES! He is DESPICABLE!
btt
As I’ve gotten older I am a big believer in Karma..and what goes around comes around...
You screw over people long enough eventually it comes back at you.....
Biden is a perfect example of that....for any family to lose your wife and two children would be an extreme tragedy, for Biden it’s a political opportunity.....
The Kennedy Family is another example...
“ You’d also think a man almost 80 years wouldn’t need to be told that, which is an indication of just how stupid he really is.”
Also what a liar he is. He has embellished the stories so much that probably even he doesn’t know the truth. But whatever happens, it’s all about him. And this was true even before senility set in.
Yep. Biden uses the dead to get ahead. Not a new pattern but it never gets better.
First, I assure you I'm no fan of Biden. That said, if there was not a explicit DUI charge, and no record of him actually being drunk, then there would be no reason the guy couldn't get another driving job after the dust settled. Granted, I don't know the actual facts but something seems to be missing if indeed “he could never get another job” afterwards... Js...
Good grief....look it up!! He died a BROKEN MAN, and his daughter told his story after he died that broken man.
Biden brought up that LIE ALL THE TIME!
Losing your wife and infant daughter in a car accident would be devastating for anyone.
getting back to dirt bag, wasn’t joe seeing his now so called dr wife while he was married and rumor had it that she was despondent and intoxicated when she killed herself and daughter.
Rumor is that he was off cheating with Jill, his friends wife, when his wife and kids were killed while out drinking to get a Christmas tree. They are both POS.
...You might be a redneck.
Good grief?
Well I guess you missed my point.
If there was not an actual DUI charge, then there must have been something else keeping him from working. It makes no sense. Died a broken man falsly accused by a political hack?? What conservative or Republican business owner wouldn’t hired the guy???
Again, there’s something missing in your story.
I had forgotten about that lie and it wasn't long ago that the daughter of that truck driver had to call Biden out on his lie too.
Also when he talks about ‘the Sainted Beau Biden’ if you notice he always links the story with his deployment to Iraq. I think this is on purpose. He never says it but he wants the listener to believe that Beau died in combat in Iraq.
How come in all of his political speech he never once mentions his living son??? I think we all know why...
But the fatal crash impacted him beyond measure. Deborah said the once "happy man" became “very sad” and was “never the same again”. "Just imagine knowing you'd taken two lives," she said.
There’s nothing missing in MY story.
“As you sow, so shall you reap.” Divine justice.
Ya... You made that appearent.
Now that I could understand perfectly well. Dying broken because you couldn’t find a job smelled like BS the same as anyone who uses that excuse.
Thanks for the clarity!!
