I have watched “Tailgunner” Joe Biden since the 80s, 1988 in particular, when he was exposed for chronic lying by Sam Donaldson (Noted not-conservative); when the McLoughlin group declared him politically dead for his constant lying and speech plagiarizing; when he was forced to drop out of the race for the democratic presidential nomination.
I have wondered how a man who makes 174,000 yearly can afford 5 million or so in 5 homes. I have watched a man who, as Vice President, bragged about threatening to withhold US aid from Ukraine unless the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating his son Hunter for corruption was fired - then bragged about it at a Council on Foreign Relations event.
I have watched as virtually everyone surrounding him is involved in receiving massive amounts of money from energy deals with Ukraine and (communist) China, all the while he and his president cancelled the Keystone Energy pipeline from Canada to the US.
I have watched the man’s 47 year record of accomplishing nothing. I note that the foundation created to further his “cancer moonshot” has done absolutely nothing for us cancer patients - except pay its chairman $452,000 yearly. That’s a lot of cancer treatment right there.
I have watched as the man forgets, mixes words, flares into manic episodes and relies on a teleprompter to make a complete sentence; as he becomes agitated - even physical - when questioned about sensitive topics. I watched as he asked a wheelchair-bound man to stand for applause.
I have watched as millions voted for him, grossly rationalizing his “devout” Catholicism - exemplified by his decades of support for abortion, his officiating at the “marriage” of two of his male staffers, who has concurred with his president in the violation of the consciences of the Little Sisters of the Poor (case now at the Supreme Court).
I have watched as he assembles an administration of tired leftist re-runs (Kerry who also accomplished nothing) and a Corona czar who does not want to live as long as his boss. Very curious. I have watched this poor man who should be seeking a clinical trial of advance medical treatment rather than the office of leader of the free world.
He will be face-to-face with the sharpest political minds on planet earth and I hope against hope that, for once, he will say nothing.
Yes, we are watching different speeches.
