Biden Handlers’ New Strategy: Hide the Geezer

Today’s Campaign Update (Because the Campaign Never Ends)

You just cannot make this stuff up. – The Democrat toadies at the Washington Post have a new piece out this morning which details growing concern in the Quid Pro Joe camp about their candidates’ obviously advancing cognitive issues. The buffoon who produced 2-3 wtf moments per week on the trail during the first few months of his campaign has recently been giving us 2-3 such brain freezes each day, and the that frequency was becoming too much for the corrupt news media to gloss over as mere “gaffes.”

Thanks to the DNC/Media narrative advancing Biden’s “electability,” none of this has really mattered all that much to depraved Democrat voters who have no concern about the good of the country and are only focused on regaining political power. These people would nominate a potato from Idaho if they thought it could beat the evil Orange Man in the White House. Thus, Biden’s handlers find themselves in the enviable position of now working with a significant lead in the race for the nomination, which provides them with a great deal of flexibility on ways to manage the campaign – and the candidate.

Given that flexibility, Quid Pro Joe’s handlers – which obviously includes his wife, Jill – rolled out a nifty new, scaled-down version of his stump speech over the weekend. Biden talks that have been rambling on for 60-90 minutes now last no longer than a typical commercial break on the History Channel, with the text now all carefully read by the candidate from a teleprompter.

From the Washington Post piece:

Biden’s event in St. Louis, framed by the Gateway Arch, clocked in at around seven minutes Saturday. A short time later, at a windswept event in Kansas City, people were streaming for their cars after Biden wrapped up in 12 minutes. His longest speech of the weekend, in the gym of Tougaloo College in Jackson, Miss., didn’t quite make 15 minutes.

It is a seismic shift for Biden, 77, who in five decades of political office and three White House runs has never had a reputation for breviloquence. It’s a habit perhaps nurtured in the Senate, which prides itself on limitless debate and has a special term — filibuster — for talking endlessly.…

The less Biden strays from his streamlined and teleprompter-ed remarks, the less likely he is to make a gaffe that could damagingly ricochet around the Internet. Even with his shorter speeches, he’s made an unforced error or two. In his Sunday remarks at New Hope Baptist Church (14 minutes), he derided Mississippi’s former governor for not accepting Medicare-for-all — which happens to be Sanders’s chief policy proposal — instead of the Affordable Care Act.

So, which recent presidential candidate does this remind you of? If you said Hillary Clinton, you win the prize, which sadly amounts only to my undying admiration of your prescience.
