In a scheduled press conference to prove he is still capable, Biden refers to his VP as “Vice President Trump”
Vice President Trump
Please note Biden Refers to Vice President Harris as ‘Vice President Trump’
President Joe Biden on Thursday mistakenly referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as “Vice President Trump” in the opening question of his highly-anticipated solo press conference in Washington.
“Look, I wouldn’t have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president [if] I think she’s not qualified to be president,” Biden said, confusing his second-in-command with his November election opponent, former President Donald Trump.
A reporter pointed out Biden’s mistake in the final question of the press conference, asking the president to comment on the blunder after Trump used it to mock him. Biden smiled to himself and replied, “Listen to him,” before walking off stage.
In another memorable slip, Biden referred to his chief of staff as “my commander in chief” before catching his mistake.
Biden also often interrupted himself mid-sentence, diverting to unrelated topics as he worked to make his case for reelection: “There’s so much we can do still. I’m determined to get it done. It’s about freedom. By the way, I’ll end this, well I’m not going to do that … Haley has to come up too,” he said before trailing off.
Earlier Thursday evening, Biden added salt to his political wounds at a scripted NATO event honoring Ukraine where he accidentally introduced Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as “President Putin.”
“And now I want to hand it over to the President of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination. Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin,” Biden said, before quickly correcting himself.
Hours before Biden’s highly-anticipated press conference, one of his campaign officials told NBC News that the president needs to drop out: “He’ll never recover from this.”
Blows First Question Right Out of the Box
About to Cry
Anthony Blinken, foreground, is Secretary of State. Jake Sullivan, middle, is Biden’s national security advisor. He looks like he is about to cry.
Wow.
Can Biden Last Another 10 Days?
I have my doubts Biden can last another 10 days let alone 4 months.
Is Biden Bluffing or Do Democrats Have a Defendable Strategy?
Yesterday, I asked Is Biden Bluffing or Do Democrats Have a Defendable Strategy?
The strategy I theorized was for Biden to hang on until July 21. That’s when the DNC meets and could (I proposed would) make Biden-Harris the official ticket.
The convention would then be a political show.
I now wonder if Biden can last 10 days.
White House Seeks to Clarify its Clarification of Biden’s Health
Also see my post earlier today White House Seeks to Clarify its Clarification of Biden’s Health
I added two video clips to my post.
In one video, Anthony Blinken, foreground, is Secretary of State. He closes his eyes. Jake Sullivan, middle, is Biden’s national security advisor. He looks like he is about to cry.
There’s worse: 1. The very fact Biden had a list of who he was to call on, name and affiliation, saved him from exposure as not having quick recall of those facts. 2. Once a credible question has arisen about a person’s mental ability, it could be laid to rest via a string of cog tests: resounding success equals resounding benefit. That Biden won’t, suggests he cannot.
Remember, its quite possible all those d-bags will lose their jobs if somebody other than Joe is nominated. They are soooooo desperate! The gravy train is over for these particular neocons
Biden should bring his dog to the press conferences to keep the trained seals in check.
I’m about to run-out of popcorn…..
Biden is just endorsing Trump as his vice-president and Putin as president of Ukraine. I expect he will propose Xi as head of the European Union next.
No one has asked who has control of our nuclear forces and codes as far as I see. It’s very strange that this question has not come out but if Biden stays in it certainly will.
The nuclear code: 6 6 6
Desperate democrats begged Obama and Nanci to remove Biden. Michelle might
grudgingly agree to run the US for 16 years and beat Trump. Who else can do it.
Obama ==> Brutus !
Who will be Putin’s Brutus?
nobody
Elvis
Bid’n
Harris
.
Harris bites.
you meant Swallows
As Joe Biden would say, his new phrase, “The fact is” Well the “fact is” the Democrats, which includes 95% of the media and hollywood and big tech millionaries own the American people and apology.
I wont hold my breath. This is not funny anymore. The fact they we as a country are in this position right now shows you how truly screwed up we are and in so many ways.
This could get even more interesting. It is well known Jill despises Kamala. I don’t see how she would have the mentally capacity to hand over the old man’s crown to Kamala with any decency. The potential for a parting shot is absolutely there.
EVERYONE despise Kamala Harris. That’s why she’s not a viable alternative.
EVERYONE, except for WillieBrown…..
I’d love to know who’s genius idea it was to have him do a presser, I know it didn’t come from Joe. Seems to me they’re intentionally hanging him out to dry.
Can they run JF Kennedy posthumously?
Franklin maybe?
Why not feed him Prevagen, it seems to work for TV actors.
Did my morning walk in my local village this morning and I glanced down and out of know where I see a RFK Jr sign for President! I swear to God
I would vote for him
Jimmy Carter is still available.
Nobody wants a rematch…
but only 1 of the 2 broken political parties is starting to address reality…
& consider alternatives.
44 Presidents served their country without immunity…
only #45 was such a self-serving con artist…
that another branch of the government had to provide a fig leaf.
Congress had immunity from the administration mandate for government workers to take the Covid shot, as did the postal workers. Congress has immunity from laws against insider stock trading. L.A. Times: “California lawmakers exempt their new office building from state environmental law.” It took until a few years ago for congress to allow victims of the contamination at Camp Lejeune, to receive compensation for injury, that goes back to 1953. Has anyone in the government been held accountable for their official acts during Covid? No. They are all held immune.
TCE
I am a staunch conservtive. However I really do not want to go through the sh’t that happened with LBJ and Eugene McCarthy in 68. I was there. The event left a deep politcal mark, total CHAOS. Jo-ah Bii-done is, was and will be a sink-hole on the political landscape. Stay put for now Mr Pres, let the dem campaign run its course and I pray there is no Oct surprise of any kind.
There will be an October surprise. Peace talks in Ukraine.
Hopefully, but I doubt the military-industrial complex will allow it. Bad for business.
It’ll take a Trump to initiate that.
Vlady is the only one offering a path to a ceasefire or peace. Of course, Ukraine and NATO will have nothing of it. From the recent NATO Summit, they just promised another $40+ billion aid package, so they remain in full escalation mode and have been escalating pokes against China. To mitigate Trump changing things, I fear that a September/October surprise is direct hot war. Where will the soldiers come from to replace the Ukrainians being sacrificed to satisfy NATO’s neocon grudges against Russia? There is only one answer.
“Clearly, I want to Clarify that I was clarifying with Clarity.”
I don’t see the family giving up the throne without a serious fight or for something of serious value. People like them have a staunch aversion to looking at a moral compass and taking even a few steps in the general direction.
He has been in bad shape for quite some time. Jill is doing the Woodrow Wilson wife thing after Wilson had a stroke. What could she possibly want of value? She has money so likely not that exclusively.
The Greedy always want more and clearly she wants MORE!
I remember Nixon talking about his wife Pat’s “cloth coat” in reference to their modest financial condition. The elites with their “fur coats” were out to get him. Same with the Biden’s. The only reason they have any power or substance is due to the old man’s political cronies in Delaware and riding Obama’s coattails into the White House. Now the same elites that got Nixon have decided to get rid of Joe. What will the Biden’s have after it’s over? Joe’s pension. And further inquiry into those hundreds of LLC’s.
I don’t know what all the fuss is about. Democrats and dementia seem to be a perfect match. It’s the only way one can understand their policies.
Four more daze. Oops days 😉
If Trump was Biden’s VP they would have yanked Biden day one. Sadly the DC dumb asses like incompetent Joe more than Kamala.
We must insist on a game of Twiddly Twat – – oops, I meant Checkers to determine the winner between Biden and a three-year old child. One rule: NO hair smelling or touching that child, ya hear!!!?
And he mis-gendered Trump. Where you at offended lib-tards?
Trump should demand an apology.
Jake “Rusian collusion hoax” Sullivan. The perjurer shoudl have been indicted.
Sullivan is nothing but a Clinton DNC political hack. Yet he is the HEAD of the NSC/NSA. Head of the uunelected government that runs the country. And decides the elections. Of course he is just the face. He isnt making any of these decisions
Some network of oligarchs and ideologues is running Jake. And we are inching closer to nuclear war so I wonder if the Club of Rome types have the upper hand
Clearly they would have preferred the engineered COVID to thin the herd. Nuclear war is dirty and limits the safe places for the Rulers. But must thin the herd so……
China froze 12 US co assets in China that produce military assets for the US army.
The Biden’s administration was plagued by two wars, illegal immigrants and inflation. The biggest boost Biden can get is a peace treaty in the ME. It’s like the return of the Iranian hostages, for Carter, before the Nov 1980 election. Bibi will meet Biden and address congress before its break.
Except no one really cares about ME peace other than it would stop us from sending tax dollars to Israel because no one believes it will last anyway.
The Iranian hostages were actual American citizens so America cared a lot more about that.
Nothing can save Biden now as he is clearly unfit to govern.
There will be no peace treaty in the ME before the Nov election. The US will send tax dollars to Jasa, Israel and many Arab nations if signed. A peace in the ME might shift like the Arab desert sand. The friendly nations might herd together, gang on Israel, blowing it in a sand storm, after becoming more powerful with US weapons. The US gov will have to choose between the two allies. I know who will be the WINNER.
Peace in the ME depends on Israel because they are the tail wagging the dog. All it will take is a direct confrontation with Hezbollah or Iran and the US will have no choice but to jump back in and satisfy commitments of support. The only ‘threat’ the US tried imposing to force direction by Bibi was placing a hold on delivering 2000 pound bombs or postponing a meeting, and we backed right off of both under minor political pressure.
It seems that the Democrat campaign team took a new strategy for Joe Biden’s answers – WHISPERING into the microphone at the end of numerous questions. What was that supposed to do? Creepy.
Painful Kabuki theater.
That’s an idea! Trump takes Harris as vice-president and gets the Republican vote, the women vote, the Black vote and sweeps up the Democrats that are left. Trump election guaranteed!
Waited until it was over then watched by skipping thru it.
Have much difficulty watching creature.
Question remains, is the party that has allowed this to proceed unabated capable of governing America?
It has to be intentional. They’re now parading this demented man for their own purposes. Perhaps it’s a ploy to make Kamala Harris even preferable, if that were possible.
The only candidate that I would accept instead of Kamala would be an inanimate piece of dog shit. Surely, they will not present crap as a potential candidate, will they?
Remember Diane Feinstein. The Democrats were all in on a clear case of elder abuse when it served their political purposes.
My problem is I never realized just how far gone America is.
An informed electorate would have ended the reign of terror by political elite mucho time ago.
It is still possible the alternative idea is people, have trouble conceiving just how deluded and stuck on power the current Political system has become.
At least with this latter view there is a chance America can come out on the other side with a rebirth-ed Nation.
Will clean tightly to this one as there is no place to run to any longer. Perhaps people are moving from the Huh part to the WTF part.
To me, taking an Oath of Office is a sacred thing. To subvert that to a party affiliation is selling ones soul to the Devil. Without a Moral compass there is no Nation.
“Without a Moral compass…”
I agree. Truth has been replaced by self-delusion and redefined as relative.
Biden introduced Zelensky as president Putin.
Biden’s family is still negotiating his payout for stepping aside.
With the Trump Crime Family?
That was truly a “Trump Derangement Syndrome” response. Go back to watching CNN or whatever….
The number one item they are negotiating is their BLANKET PARDONS!
10% for the Big Guy!
We have two candidates who can’t keep any names or facts straight. Those of you high on Trump are no better than those who support Biden. Everyone is living in their own private Idaho. Our country is currently incapable of picking a leader. I would like to see Trump hit some fast balls at his own “big boy press conference”. He would probably come across not much better than Bided. I’m not sure the 2025 guys are going to able to manipulate Trump into enacting their agenda to turn the United States into a one party Christian nation.
Trump can roll out of bed at 5’AM already wearing a suit, have some KFC and a Diet Coke , grab a couple of pussies and hit the ground running before Biden can call Jill to change his diaper.
Best reply by far.
But he still can’t put together a health plan in 4 years in office. It’s always 2 weeks away. Now to stoop to your level. Trump spent his mornings watching fox news and complaining how they are against him when the say facts that don’t go is way. Melania would not change Trumps diaper and everyone around Trump has complained of the smell. It was so bad she refused to ride with him. 80% of the people who worked for him would not want to work for him again.
your Mom wears combat boots….
She did. I was proud she served our country. Unlike Trump who only serves himself.
What’s going on here?
Dems calling for Biden to exit the race.
Republicans cheering on Biden to stay in the race.
This is becoming a Seinfeld episode…BIZARRO WORLD
Trump is sneaky. This way he has a 100% chance of getting into the White House if he is on the Republican ticket as president and the Democratic ticket as vice-president.
An excellent strategy!!
I’m beginning to think people who believe this is “all a movie” are right after all. If so, Biden deserves a ‘best actor’ award.
It’s the special features to Idiocracy.
Harry Caray occasionally referred to “Sammy Sofa”.
Harry Carry was more than occasionally drunk
But he was the best announcer ever
Wasn’t his campaign speech at NATO conf a violation of the Hatch Act?
I am told the Hatch Act does not apply to the President
Biden is OUT.
Now that the NATO meeting is over (yet another debacle) Biden will get a visit from his masters. He will do what they tell him to do.
The Dems next magic trick? they will conjure a new ticket @ DNC – a ticket that excludes Kamala Harris.
And they will lose in Nov. anyways.
Dems/progressives deserve every last ounce of this humiliation.
The campaign donations will dry up, and the fat lady will clear her throat.
Exactly, cutting funding is one effective enforcement mechanism used by governments and on politicians. It is how we got the 55 MPH national speed limit.
But Joe says he has $200M in the bank. Can he keep it as a going away present?
It’s certainly been many years in the making, and yes, the Dem/progressive politicos and media fully deserve the humiliation
If Biden is out now, the DNC will patch togather a new ticket that could win. This would be a big problem for Trump and the US. Joe needs to go down 5 days before the election to put Trump in office. Join me and pray Joe lasts until Novenber 1st.
there is no “winning ticket” for democrats.
whitmer, newsom, shapiro, hillary, big mike, oprah… they have no bench & no viable candidates.
DJT (& independent voters) will crush any/all of these “candidates”.
dems lose this election no matter what… and if they steal it, expect red state secession & further devolution.
That none of them are resigning tells you they’re more concerned with ego than doing their jobs.
There’s a lot more than egos at stake for far more people than just the candidates. Criminal prosecutions, elite sinecures and payback rewards are all in the mix,
Trump called Nikki Haley Nancy Pelosi.
This is your response….to the totality of what we have witnessed the past month. Im embarrassed for you
They’re equally vile.
If you voted for Biden in 2019, you got played. If you’re going to vote for him again, you’re slower than Biden himself.
That Biden voters won’t acknowledge either is of much greater concern.
I’m glad he is humiliating himself and I am glad he is humiliating the Democrats because none have the courage to 25th president Rigor Mortis.
And neither do the Republicans.
If you voted for Biden in 2019 you probably shouldn’t have a vote.
Freudian slip?
I don’t expect any of you to better at 81. Some here will be dead by then. That sort of puts into perspective how bad Trump had to be for Biden to win. Biden won’t convince anyone who slams him anyway. He’s been stuttering and making mistake his whole life. I think Trump is praying Biden doesn’t get replaced but I think come November whomever the Democratic nominee is, he or she will win. Trump won’t be able to not self destruct.
Copium is one hell of a drug. I suggest you seek professional help
He’s a paid shill. And a troll.
Trump wasn’t bad, he was framed for crimes he didn’t commit and the press ran with it.
Minus 43, is that record territory?
Who is really in charge
Biden listens to the smartest man he knows.
He’s being tossed to the curb because he’s going to lose; not because he’s senile.
He wasn’t much better in 2020 with his run from the basement.
The media covered it up as best they could by using Covid excuse
Oh please. The difference between now and 2020 is obvious. And, the gaslighting of the mainstream media is no longer deniable.
It isn’t simply senility. It was years ago, and is even moreso today, apparent that something else is going on.
His dementia is probably being exacerbated by the drugs they give him hoping that he’ll have moments of clarity.
Yes. Tell Vlady that if he’s going to nuke us, make sure it’s between 10am and 4pm.
It will be pretty funny if what does the Imbecile in is uttering the word Trump
This supposedly unscripted presser was a waste and proved nothing.
It isn’t whether Biden can make it through the next few months, it is how can he make it through the next 4 years? This is the question that needs to be asked.
The reality is that he cannot and that he will have to turn the job over to VP Harris early in his possible 2nd term.
THIS is even more scary than letting Biden continue like in the “Weekend at Bernie’s” movie
Same questions should be asked of Trump.
And they will be, but right now it’s Biden’s turn.
Yes. After they’re finished with the “old man”, they’ll start in on the other old man.
Biden sucks, California sucks, Democrats suck. Their record of damge precedes them. Vote Red!
“Vote Red!”
Since they suck, too…..
Can the DNC be trusted with ANY candidate it nominates after Biden’s display of dementia and the way the DNC has tried to cover up Biden’s incapacity rather than replace him?
wMSM; expect massive gov’t censoring to election given citizens don’t have “standing”. Blog comments too.
Better to have a president with dementia than one who can’t manage a pandemic.
Clearly you aren’t experienced dealing with a person that has reduced mental acuity due to a health condition, otherwise you wouldn’t want Biden holding the symbolic nuclear key. (it should be noted that both presumptive major party nominees are a poor choice to hold that key)
As for the pandemic, what was there to manage? Any hint of a travel ban was deemed xenophobic, the metaphorical cure was worse than the dis-ease, and ‘it’ wasn’t controlled by any effort to control it.
Interestingly The New York Times wrote on Oct. 23, 2020:
“Purely by chance, thousands of vaccinated people will have heart attacks, strokes and other illnesses shortly after the injections. Sorting out whether the vaccines had anything to do with their ailments will be a thorny problem, requiring a vast, coordinated effort by state and federal agencies, hospitals, drug makers and insurers to discern patterns in a flood of data. Findings will need to be clearly communicated to a distrustful public swamped with disinformation.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/23/health/covid-vaccine-safety.html
Who are you? Where did you come from? You’re absurd!
You exemplify what is meant by the term gas-lighting.
It was your Dementia President’s pandemic management that created all this excess debt and excess death that led our country straight into this hell hole.
