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.
 
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.
 
This is such a bullshit article. Biden corrected what he meant, and the context is clear. So stop taking the right wing framing of it
We all agree that Biden didn’t mean it the way it sounded but what we think doesn’t matter. What matters is that it was an unforced error and allowed the narrative to change from Trump’s disastrous rally.

Perception is reality in politics.

As for Biden, can he just shut the f’ up for one week? Nobody needs him to try to be cute by turning the garbage word around. For goodness sakes, just say the Trump rally was disturbing and leave it at that. He isn’t running and doesn’t need to try to create sound bites.

I’m not defending the overreaction, I am acknowledging it as it happened.

arguably, he isn’t running because he can’t create sound bites
 
Eh, Biden has already clarified the comment and if anything it's a reminder why it was the right call for him to step aside.

If Trump wants to go back to obsessing about Biden like he was in the weeks after Joe decided not to run, so be it.

I hope they blow it up sky high. Anybody who has a single working brain cell is going to be forced to see the dichotomy of what they say and how they act. I don't think the public is going to see it like Democrats seem to think they will. The spotlight they are turning on this isn't showing what they think.
 
Harris' visit to Charlotte will be her second this week to North Carolina. She is speaking at a rally in Raleigh on Wednesday. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Harris' running mate, will be in Charlotte and Asheville on Wednesday for campaign rallies as candidates continue to appeal to North Carolina voters.
