"Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you're a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what's going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don't, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible."

    This is why he'll win. Because Republicans live in an echo chamber where they think Biden is incompetent. If you look at the record he's the best president since FDR.

    Dude's a racist fraud who can't form a sentence. That's what you get when you "vote blue no matter who." We need to do better than Biden.

    Why lie like this

    I mean if you don't like Biden, fine, but what's with this weird need to pretend he can't speak? He obviously can and it just sounds pathetic to deny reality like this

    Biden is that racist grandpa with dementia who everybody makes excuses for because "he's a product of his time" and happens to be on Team Blue. He messes up people's names, struggles to read a teleprompter, and spews racist bullshit. Not to mention sniffing girls' hair on national TV and grabbing at women who don't want it. We could have had Clinton or Sanders, but no, we got this dumb shit that people voted for because of nostalgia.

    "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean." -- Biden, referring to President Obama

    "Poor kids are just as smart and talented as white kids!"

    "It's awful hard, as well, to get Latinx vaccinated as well. Why? They're worried that they will be vaccinated and deported."

    "Unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes about different things."

    "That’s like saying you . . . before you got in this program, you’re take [sic] a test whether you’re taking cocaine or not. What do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?" -- Biden asking a Black reporter if he's a cocaine junkie after the reporter asked if he had taken a cognitive test

    "You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent."

    Yeah I get it he's old and says awkward things sometimes. Wow, you really got him. Guess all those black people who voted for him in the primaries because they thought he had their best interests at heart were just idiots, eh?

    Dude, none of this is acceptable in the 21st century.

    Yeah I get it he's old and says awkward things sometimes.

    Just proving my point here, he's that racist grandpa with dementia that everybody makes excuses for.

    You know damn well if anyone else said any one of these things publicly, they'd be (rightly) ripped apart. He wouldn't be talking like that if it wasn't in his heart.

    Black Americans seem to think he has their best interests at heart and he's certainly led like that. You're just another big ol fuckin racist who thinks that black Americans are infantile morons who can't tell what those best interests are. They need your big, special white savior ass to come and lecture them about what and who they should vote for.

    Ah yes, well played. Just accuse anyone who disagrees with you of being a racist. That'll get you serious Internet pointz.

    That's literally what you did with a politician you didn't like, bucko. You pretended he was a racist even though he was chosen by marginalized racial groups to represent them.

    You gave me quotes ripped out of context which go to show he says awkward things sometimes. That's it. Sorry

    Much better to judge his actions, which were sufficient to earn the enduring support of the black community

    Ah, yes, like how even Kamala Harris admitted to being affected by his racist policies.

    My opinion is that none of these "out of context" quotes are appropriate in any context, especially in the 21st century. I don't care if he's team blue or not. Team blue needs to do better than this fraud.

    Yeah no I'm sorry, no one reasonable gives a shit here. Angry, edgy white kids like you should probably take a step back and listen when the wishes of minority communities are made clear. If anyone has the capacity to judge someone on whether they're a bigot, it's them. Not you.

    Me, I supported someone else during the primaries. But black Americans overwhelmingly supported him, so, he won. So, anyone claiming that he's obviously a known racist is necessarily saying that black people are too stupid to know what's good for them, and I'm just going to ignore the everliving fuck out of racist asses like that.

    Whatever dude. Biden is yet another pervy old scumbag politician, and all you've got is personal attacks against some imaginary strawman you've constructed in your mind.

    I'll never understand why people on both sides take for granted that everybody on their team (blue or red) is right, but that is exactly what is wrong with this country. And the sooner people realize that, the better.

    No, he's not. He's never been credibly accused of being more than too huggy, and when called on that behavior, he stopped it immediately like any normal human being with blind spots who tries to do better.

    I will never understand people like you who have this insane need to pretend every politician they don't agree with is a monster.

    They just can't stand their own echo chamber. They need others to unwillingly bare witness to their infantile rants.

    Alphabet soup was invented in the 1890s. The first telling of this joke was two weeks later, when it was written about Queen Victoria, only in her 60s but afflicted by several physical conditions by that time, and printed by a young editorial intern named Joe Biden.
