Team Biden hasn’t kept Joe on lockdown because of COVID, not at all. Fact is, they’ve hidden him away because the guy’s dementia has gotten so bad they can no longer hide the fact that Joe’s brain has turned to soup.
COVID is just a convenient excuse.
If there is another debate, I really, really hope President Trump just stands back and lets Joe Biden talk. Because nobody does a better job showing what a heartless, confused, condescending old crank Joe Biden is better than Joe himself.
There isn’t enough medication in the world to mask Joe’s dementia.
Yesterday was especially bad.
Joe tried to make some point about the 2012 election against Mitt Romney. But his point got lost when Mitt Romney’s name got lost somewhere in the recesses of Joe’s soupy mind.
Good grief. This is your brain on dementia.
Actually, the part that I found hilarious is Biden claiming he “took him on.”
Does he not remember that the only person he faced off against was Paul Ryan?
Unless of course Biden’s idea of “I took him on” was telling a black audience, “He’s gonna put y’all back in chains.”
On top of that, yesterday, as he’s done before, Joe forgot what he’s running for:
See, this is why it really is a shame that Jill is not an actual doctor. Maybe if she was she would be a little more concerned about what kind of negative effect campaigning for President is having on her husband’s dementia. But she isn’t concerned at all. Then again, as I said last week, Jill is the modern-day Lady Macbeth. Sorry DOCTOR Lady Macbeth.
But the most astonishing thing was when a reporter asked Joe about the Gallup poll that shows 56% of Americans say they are better off today than they were four years ago.
This is painful to watch (and not just because of the cartoon backdrop):
Oh, the irony of having the guy who can’t remember Mitt Romney’s name, what office he’s running for or what city he’s in telling 56% of Americans that their memory’s not very good.
Who do you think is better able to determine whether you are better off today than four years ago? You or the guy with dementia?
For Pete’s sake. Joe couldn’t remember what the reporter said just seconds after he said it. The reporter says 56%, and seconds later Joe says 54%. Who’s memory’s not very good?
And because Joe is a condescending crank, since you don’t remember how good you had it when Obama/Biden were in office, you shouldn’t vote for him.
So not only do you not deserve to know whether he’d pack the court, you forgetful, ungrateful rubes shouldn’t vote for him at all.
Good grief.
Even dementia this advanced can’t erase the dismissive condescension of Joe Biden.
But what’s Team Biden to do?
The election is exactly four weeks away. They can’t keep the demented old coot locked down in his basement now. They have to let him out to campaign.
But it’s a damned if they do, damned if they don’t situation.
Because the more Americans see of Joe, the more likely it is Joe will say stupid, outrageous, and deeply condescending things. It will also be impossible to hide just how pronounced his dementia has become.
But with Kamala tied up with Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation, the final stretch of this election all rests on the shoulders of a brain-scrambled, hot-headed, forgetful old man.
