In another fumble by US President Joe Biden, the 81-year-old confused the leaders of North and South Korea and called Kim Jong Un the president of South Korea.

    not a gaffe it is age showing

    he should have done the responsible thing and stepped aside for younger blood instead of selfishly holding on to power same as the Republicans

      selfishly holding on to power

      Uh…a presidential term is four years.

      same as the Republicans

      Here we go with the “they’re all the same” bullshit.

      not a gaffe it is age showing

      …and your other option is just as old, but hell-bent on ending democracy and installing a fascist plutocracy.

      Americans need to wake up and realize what they’re saying and promoting through social channels. If you don’t fully understand the immense threat we’re facing, don’t comment.

      And if you can’t stomach voting for an old man who just wants to keep the country from destroying itself, don’t vote and move to North Korea.

        Biden had his time as politician and vice president during the later years he could have just called it quits and left on a high note

        instead he has just latched on and is refusing to let go same as the Republicans

          Oh…so you’re one of those “career politicians bad” folks. Listen, we’ve seen what a “Washington outsider” does and Washington cannot afford four more years of it.

          I’m sorry, but your pride might have to take a hit on this one and you might just have to accept that our best option to keep this country together is an old-as-fuck gaffe machine career politician from Delaware.

    OP, thank you for always giving us your hard-hitting, journalistic best. /s

    Americans: In case you weren’t aware, Joe Biden has always been a “gaffe machine” over his lifetime and throughout his entire career. He’s even admitted, “I am a gaffe machine, but my God what a wonderful thing compared to a guy who can’t tell the truth.”

    He said, “I’m ready to litigate all those things, the question is what kind of nation are we becoming? What are we going to do? Who are we?” OP, I implore you to ask these questions of yourself.

    When asked “Why him?” Biden stated, “Whether or not I run, whoever runs, I’m going to break my neck to make sure they win,” he said. “We can’t have four more years.”

    He’s doing what he committed to do. In my mind, he’s infinitely better than the alternative and will continue to be no matter how many hit pieces OP posts. Why don’t you exercise your “journalistic” muscles by reporting on actual issues and real governance instead of lame verbal gaffes that have been with Biden since well before he was elected president?

    has everyone forgot what Biden accomplished as a politician or Harris?

    does it any of that and their current policies align with the voters?

    and Republicans definitely should be asked the same questions

    if laws and policies that align with religion and over policing and less human rights is what the goal is then hey lets vote Biden or Trump
