Pelosi downplays Biden controversy: 'Joe Biden is authentic'
The Hill ^ | 6/20/19 | CRISTINA MARCOS

Posted on 06/21/2019 2:42:36 AM PDT by Libloather

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday tried to downplay the controversy surrounding former Vice President Joe Biden touting his work with segregationist senators as an example of "civility."

"I think that authenticity is the most important characteristic that candidates have to convey to the American people and Joe Biden is authentic," Pelosi told reporters at a press conference in the Capitol. "He considers certain things a resource, that he has worked across the aisle. That's what he was saying."

Pelosi neither criticized nor explicitly defended Biden, but in addition to describing him as "authentic," she noted he has support among African Americans.

“Joe Biden seems to have tremendous support in the African American community, but it’s for them to decide. It's not for me to make a judgment as to how they're going to react," Pelosi said.

Yes, Joe Biden used to play fearmongering tactic on blacks claiming that Republicans will put blacks back in chains.

Pecker puss Pelosi describing Biden as authentic can be translated as he’s a DC insider. Joe is going to get chopped up pretty good during the primaries. If he manages to win the nomination, the Donald is going to stomp him. Joe will have to answer for the corruption and failure of the Obama admin. Not to mention, how he got rich.

Imagine the opposition research dossier that the Donald has compiled on him. Irony.

I support sleepy Joe in the Primaries, and Mr. MAGA in the General.

That’s the Rat definition of “bipartisanship”. Working across the aisle with Segregationist Deemocrats.

Pelosi described Biden as "authentic," and noted he has support among African Americans.
“Joe Biden seems to have tremendous support in the African American community, ......." Pelosi said.

Yes, he did....up until now.

Current Dem presidential front-runner candidate Joe Biden in 1975 on reparations for blacks:"
“I don't feel responsible for the sins of my father and grandfather... I'll be damned if I feel responsible
to pay for what happened 300 years ago." (SOURCE Citizen Free Press)

Biden has a lot of gaffes in his history, which will be exposed. They really do not have to work very hard to find numerous examples of hypocritical statements and reckless behavior.
