    Guys, I’m not american, but at least today answering the press questions (no teleprompter) Biden was dishing out wisdom about economics and geopolitics and very thoughtful…he is just not very good with the whole “slick reality show clown president to distract the cattle while you rob them” part :/

        Or is it what media outlets want, for sensationalism and clicks, which in turn makes it all the voters focus on because there is nothing else?

        Edit: Eh, writing this I apparently thought they wrote more/other things than they did. Ah well, I’ll keep the comment up as a piece of history from my past.

      Yeah Biden has always said stupid shit too, but you’re not going to convince most people of that. They will assume it’s due to senility. I’d say that’s certainly part of it, but it’s also par for the course for Biden.
