You know he’s still President of the United States right?

Tactically, what’s the upside with having him speak vs. the downside risk? Have him present, have him give written endorsements, etc., but I don’t think the reward outweighs the risk in a public speaking environment.
 
1. Thankful and eternally grateful for everything Biden has done. Brought us out of both the Covid pandemic, both with regards to health and financial, and ushered us out of the Trump presidency despite all of Trump’s attempts to subvert democracy.
2. His comment was clumsy, benign but most of all true.
3. With that said, please don’t make anymore comments. We get what you mean and understand and agree. But Trump was taking a standing 8 count after the MSG racism, and Kamala’s speech was knocking him down again. The comment has given them a small out. We can say this will only resonate with MAGA, but at the gym this morning, every single tv that was set to news was talking about Biden’s garbage comment. Not Kamala’s great speech in front of a bigly crowd and not Trump’s MSG rally. All Biden and garbage. I get Joe wants to be present and it really was relatively benign, but it has charged the news cycle. And the press is all about giving Trump a pass on his day in day out chaos and focusing on the minutiae of the Harris campaign. Last thing you want to do is throw them, and Trump, softballs. <\vent>
4. Let’s get more coverage of Kamala in Raleigh and Charlotte and surrogates elsewhere and get the news cycle back! 😀

Personally, I’m way more annoyed by the attempt to contextualize the “Trump supporters are garbage” than I am by the gaffe itself. If Biden had been more willing to take off the gloves a lot sooner and call those stupid motherfuckers exactly what they are a lot sooner, he might still be the nominee.

But yeah, anyone who thinks that this moves one single solitary vote in either direction needs to log off for the day and either go touch some grass or smoke some.

I already took your advice just in case.

Have you somehow missed that the owners of the media have their thumbs on the scale? We aren't getting the news cycle back.

Lololol yeah riiiiight right right. You’re definitely a woman, who definitely just found this board and registered all within the last 10 minutes, and definitely came to this particular thread and decided to engage with my particular posts as your first three posts. Most definitely! You’re not lying at all!

I don’t care what sex organs you have. You want to talk shit, you can catch shit just anyone else.

Biden really destroyed Kamala’s big night huh? :ROFLMAO:

Only in the right wing bubble. Nobody else gives a shit given what comes from Trump on a daily basis. For that matter, the right has said they’re perfectly okay with a few mean tweets, so this quip shouldn’t faze them at all either.

I identity as “I don’t give a fuck who or what you are, this is an anonymous online Internet message board, if you want to go out of your way to talk shit, I’m more than happy to oblige.” Your better bet would be to drop it, and enjoy the rest of your posting on this board, because you’re totally a brand new poster who just happened to randomly find this board!

Sorry I struck a nerve because you made the same joke three times.

It is all about the punctuation … English teachers will have a useful demonstration of the power of the mighty apostrophe now.

If this is what he said, then how can any decent person disagree with Joe ?

His supporter did spew garbage from the podium when he demonized Puerto Ricans at Trump's MSG rally.
 
nycfan said:
Here’s the thing — I don’t think he intended to say it, and I think the context proves that, and even if it weren’t clear, he provided clarification very quickly thereafter.

BUT however obvious that seems to me or anyone else, it is also obvious that (a) the Trump campaign and their enablers in right wing media are seizing it as a get out of jail free card opportunity and (b) the mainstream media is also treating it as a major gaffe by Biden.

Hopefully, the truth of it becomes obvious to most potential Harris voters and this fades after another news cycle. But even then damage has been done — undermining the positive news cycle and just basic coverage of Kamala’s closing argument at the Ellipse first and foremost, but also altering the Trump MSG news cycles and creating an opportunity for Both Sides equivocation by swing voters.

Damned frustrating unforced error.

What was it J.D. Vance said? Something about how we have to stop getting offended at every little thing and how we are not going to restore the greatness of American civilization if we get offended at every little thing?

Yeah, but we're talking about a misplaced apostrophe. That's some serious business.
