Here\u2019s the current president attempting to make a joke about the Navy that apparently no one understood. In response,he calls them \u201cdull\u201d and then ponders why they didn\u2019t clap while proclaiming \u201cC\u2019mon man, is the sun getting to you?\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Please clap, stupid <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/PJuLtRRAtq\">pic.twitter.com\/PJuLtRRAtq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Vince Coglianese (@VinceCoglianese) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/VinceCoglianese\/status\/1395050708857020416?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 19, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s appearance as a cosplay of Skeletor should be enough to elicit a few laughs, but this joke was that bad, I guess. You\u2019ve probably noticed that one of Biden\u2019s tics is that when people don\u2019t respond the way he wants, he insults and belittles them. It\u2019s a defense mechanism that never comes across well. Here, after he chastises the class, he finally gets a few laughs from what sounds like officers near the front, but there\u2019s never a real response.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, maybe some of this has to do with the fact that military members aren\u2019t necessarily keen on Biden and his party. With more and more woke garbage being shoved down their throats by the top brass at the direction of the administration and a foreign policy that promises to cause chaos, why would they be?<\/p>\n<div class=\"my-4\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-300x250_5\" class=\"gpt-ad ad-250 text-center\">Past that, if you\u2019ve got a really good memory you may recall that this isn\u2019t Biden\u2019s first time to insult military members while demanding applause. He did it back in 2016, calling the troops he was speaking to \u201cdumb bastards\u201d for not clapping at a quip about his wife and a military appointment.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Here\u2019s the quote via a \u201cfact-check\u201d by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/uk-factcheck-biden-troops-stupid-bastard\/fact-check-bidens-2016-stupid-bastards-remark-to-u-s-military-intended-as-joke-idUSKBN26L3F3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Reuters<\/a>\u00a0which desperately tries to spin what he said.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Then he said, \u201cI just want you to know that. Clap for that, you stupid bastards.\u201d After the applause, Biden said to the audience, \u201cMan, you are a dull bunch.\u00a0 Must be slow here, man. I don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Everything that\u2019s old is new again for this administration, I suppose. To be fair, Biden probably doesn\u2019t even remember that he had already made nearly the exact same comment half a decade earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Even still, maybe Biden should take a breath and realize that military members do not exist to clap like seals for him every time he says something dumb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joe Biden Has a &#8216;Please Clap&#8217; Moment That Would Make Jeb!
