Opinion - The words about Joe Biden I never wanted to write

It’s hard to acknowledge that those who worried about Biden’s age may have been right all along.

As important, they were also moments when many among the president’s strongest supporters began to lose heart.

Stephanopoulos asked the exactly appropriate question near the end of their conversation: “If you stay in and Trump is elected and everything you’re warning about comes to pass, how will you feel in January?”

There were many right responses this question, the obvious being something like: “If I didn’t believe with all my heart that I will beat Trump, I wouldn’t stay in this race.”

Instead, Biden offered what was close to the worst possible reaction, and not because of the slightly fractured syntax: “I’ll feel as long as I gave it my all and I did the good as job as I know I can do, that’s what this is about.”...

That is what I tell them too. If they didn’t rig the 2020 election, they would be kissing Trump goodbye for the last time and probably nominating Big Mike or Queen Hillary with a comfortable majority in both houses.

The media in this matter deserves the greatest “I am shocked there is gambling going on here” meme ever.

I’ve thought since 1990s that Dionne was a black man. Just googled and found out from its picture that it isn’t (man or black).

Neither version is grammatical but I bet the White House transcript replaced “goodest job” with “good as job” thinking it sounded less brain dead.
