Biden's Staff Ends A Press Conference Before He Can Answer Reporters

Joe Biden's staff rushed to close a press conference immediately after he called on the press to ask him questions. Immediately, as in, within 2 seconds after he asked. He is obviously not in charge...

This wasn't weird.... - YouTube

 

Imagine that YOU are the President, and your staff is telling you who you can and can't call on, and tells YOU when the press conference is over. Biden is nothing more than a puppet...

 

They know an unfiltered Biden is a clownshow.

Listen to those staffers yelling at the press to leave.

 

I'm sure they ended it so abruptly because he said out loud who they told him to call on. When he got back to the White House they probably spanked him and put him to bed without supper...

 

Lol probably.

 

Unfiltered Biden beat trump in 2 debates lol

 

This is really sad. Who the heck is running things?

 

And then he just sits there with a blank stare and goofy grin on his face like he doesn't even know what planet he's on....

 

Not this queen.

 

Like this?

 

I do not hate Trump, but I think he should not run again.

But, still, who is running things in the Biden Admin?

 

Those caring for him must have missed those debates, or he's gone downhill since. Which is it? lol

 

Trumpppfffff!

Dude it's pathetic.

 

The only problem is that the guy who we assume IS da prez isn't either. The video makes it painfully clear his staff is telling him what to do while he sits there with a deer in the headlights look. I mean, I don't like Biden but - I felt pity for him just now. The guy is clearly not capable of doing his job.

Also, we already have two posters who deflect to Trump and handle all the whataboutisms. You're just gonna haveta wait until they retire. Sorry.

 

I find it a bit difficult to muster empathy for politicians. Any of them.

<heading off to the corner, Teacher >

 

I can despise politicians in general and feel pity for them on an individual basis. The look I saw on Biden when he was shut down by his staff and he had no idea what was going on reminded me of my (I think) great-uncle who I met only once almost fifty years ago and he was pretty much close to dementia. The guy looked like some military general of renown but he literally sat there with a blank look while other relatives told him what to do and when to respond and what to say and he was essentially their puppet, albeit a well-treated one. He had no free will of his own. That scared the heck outta a ten-year old me.

I look at Biden and - well, we joke and call him Dementia Joe but I say this without snark or sarcasm (I do that occasionally) I think it really is happening. And while I can easily disagree with anything and everything he believes/ed in, I still also see a helpless old man not in charge of his own self and feel the same pity for him that I did for my great-uncle.

Don't forget to empty the pencil sharpeners on the way back!

 

This is elder abuse. He doesn’t know where he is half the time. Now the Dems have a big problem since his VP is even more incompetent than he is.

 

This thread was not about Trump. The subject is Biden. Stop with the Trump deflections and Trump whataboutism on every single thread. Give it a rest.

 

By the time it's all said and done, Biden and Harris will go down as one of, if not the worst, Presidential administrations in the history of this country...

 

I get that. One of my great-aunts was married to a guy who was a semi-professional boxer. He was the nicest man. As kids, we would go over to their house (they lived across from the park with a swimming pool and out dad took us swimming every day when he got off work) just to say hi.

Get this, he literally would get a knife and ruler to divide up ice cream among us kids. Talk about fair! And, since we had bigger, older cousins, he would stand at the grill cooking and sneak a signal to us where to find the Easter eggs. Oh, I'm getting misty here, man. Yeah, they were such nice people. They were the only relatives our of hundreds that didn't treat us differently just because my parents were well off. They didn't play favorites like that.

He worked his whole life doing something with trains. They never went on vacations or did much for themselves while he was working and they planned to take a trip around the world and just enjoy retirement. They set off on a cruise to start their adventure and halfway through he collapsed on deck from a stroke. He had two more on the way back to shore.

So, this tall, buff, boxer, but loving great-uncle came back home in a wheelchair. He lost the ability to control the left side of his body but he would grab his hand weights and keep the right side going. Every time we'd go visit, he'd ball up his fist and slur "God d*mn, one day I will walk again!!" All told, I think my mother said he had about 7 strokes, the first one was the big one but the others didn't help any.

With each subsequent visit, it was clear he wasn't heading in the right direction. Eventually, he couldn't talk at all but let us know he was "in there" somewhere by pounding that first on his motorized wheelchair and then he couldn't do that. We kids loved him deeply. Some of our cousins didn't want to visit him because it was too hard, but our parents made sure we did and we never ran away scared. My sister and I would sit with him and tell him corny jokes and tell him how much fun we remember having with him. His eyes would light up as we told him we remembered all the "cheats" he gave us to grab the plastic eggs with the chocolate inside. He loved hearing us laugh and talk about our memories with him and then, one day, probably much like great-uncle, it was clear that he was tired. He was ready.

All the money they saved and scrimped for their trips around the world was spent on medical care, in-home nurses when he had to transition to a hospital bed and the like. Auntie stood by him until the very end. She was a strong woman. She lost her son and grandson in wars so he was the last of their family name.

++++++++++++++

And, I realize now how insensitive my comment might have seemed and I'd like to clarify it now. What I meant about mustering empathy for politicians is that I keep myself at a distance from all the back and forth drama and day-to-day happenings with them. In fact, I haven't even seen the video that was posted in this thread because I know that some people will trash talk him regardless of what he does and some people will not regardless of what he does.

I know I've posted about it but I'm not sure I ever actually shared it with you but I interned in local politician's office in college and hated it. I was young and probably should have tried to stick it out but I wanted to be as far away from what I saw, up close, while working there. I thought there was someplace else I could work with people that shared some of my values but I mostly ran into that type which caused me to set out to make a path for myself that I could live with.

So, yes, I feel many of the same things you've expressed for ANY person placed or forced into a role for which they are not equipped to handle with sound mind and body. I've always volunteered in every community where I lived and helped out in a nursing home and saw many patients like what people are describing about Biden and they may be legitimate concerns or just slinging mud just to do it.

Nevertheless, here are some of my impressions about the questions behind his cognitive connections with the events around him.

1. I watched and read several things about him when I was trying to choose who to vote for. I don't mean to be mean, but he's never been an eloquent speaker. I'm aware that he has mostly overcome a lifelong stutter but even with those allowances, it's clear that public speaking isn't his wheelhouse. It also doesn't help that he has small eyes which gives the appearance that he's squinting (the body language interpretation is read as dishonesty (ie. look a man straight in the eyes).


2. Conversely, while incredibly dense and prone to almost being a caricature of himself, Trump has much, much more experience speaking in public. He knows how to engage his audience and read them. Trump's voice is about 3 octaves below Biden's, and that works in his favor. IIRC, I don't believe they are too far apart in age but Trump doesn't have the "old man" voice. In fact, his voice is very melodic. And, even when he's saying the stupidest thing ever, he knows how to use his tone, inflections and body language to sell his BS to his target audience. So, I get why people are almost entranced with his nonsense. A good con man knows how to sell snake oil.


3. For reasons I don't quite understand, many people think Trump was a strong leader. I suspect it's because of his height, voice and no filter. That's translated as something positive but I don't believe it should be. A good leader isn't threatened by everybody around him. They know their own worth and they are the one that calls the shots. Twice now, maybe more, he has backed down because of Pelosi (1. reversed travel bans in the early days of COVID and 2. he claimed that he asked for NG back-up and she denied the request. There's information on both sides of that but it begs the question "Why are people questioning 'Who is in charge at the White House?' because Biden displays whatever they are talking about but they readily blame Pelosi when Trump was allegedly "in charge". We can't have it both ways. And, because Trump's lack of manners, social decorum, diplomacy, tone deafness to any and everything the average American is facing were filed under "strong leader", Biden's more inclusive, quiet, unassuming and respectful approach to the media or Fauci automatically has to be defined as "weak." That's just the way the human brain works.


The exact same tide happened between Obama and Trump. Obama is a very good public speaker and he's very smart and engaging (if one isn't dinging him for anything unrelated to the quality of his speaking and intelligence. Comparatively, Trump sounded worse. He's notoriously uninterested in anything that hasn't sprouted some craziness in his own head and he's not well read. It is abundantly clear, Obama attended all his college classes. That's not so clear with Trump (BUT, in fairness, one doesn't have to graduate from college or do anything meaningful in their communities if their dad left them a boatload of money).




Anecdote, I knew this guy in graduate school who was just so weird. He always looked like he just climbed out a dumpster. Greasy hair, gross teeth, no manners to speak of and not very sociable. I gave him a pass on that last one because I'm an introvert. One day, he called me out the blue and said he dropping out. I can't recall what set him off but the bottom line was both of his parents left him a lot of money so he didn't *need* to graduate or find a job. And, that's Trump. He can't play well with others because he's never had to play well with others. He doesn't have to answer to anybody or read briefs or do anything he doesn't want to do relative to his businesses and he thought that would apply in his role as POTUS and is having his infinite very public nervous breakdown because some of us told him to vacate our House.


++++++++++++++++++



4. Finally, (and this will be hard to read) because a large percentage of Trump's supporters like him because he openly ignored every person he deemed unworthy of his leadership because we didn't vote for him. He wasn't selling equality. He was telling them that this country belongs to them and he had to cure to get rid of all the people they don't want in their country. It only makes sense they would like that - they get the benefit! And, because Biden told us that he would President to ALL of us, it's rubbing the "haves" the wrong way. They don't want the "have nots" honing in on their sweet deal. They don't want to play nice with others. They want the lion's share and anybody that's not in the "in crowd" can go pound sand.

I took time to watch the video and I don't see the same thing you did. He's always squinty. He's always fumbling over words. My ex's aunt's husband had Alzheimer's disease and I met at least 100 patients in the nursing home where I volunteered. By the time they got the "deer in the headlights" look, they weren't able to formulate complete sentences or even sit still. I am not a doctor and I'm not trying to diagnose him but if this clip is all the "proof" of some major cognitive disconnect, I've been left wanting.

All done!

 

Biden is a meat puppet.

Lol, at least he took unscripted questions.

 

I think you meant Drumpf, that was the Trump family last name before they changed it

 

~ Many may not know that besides Ol' Joe's eyelid surgery, facial resurfacing and hair transplant - he also has had brain surgery to remove/repair an aneurysm - twice. He also has a heart disorder. Obviously this likely has excelerated and/or exacerbated any cognitive difficulties.
Nothing to feel sorry about. Biden knows full well that he is incompetent and unfit - yet he persists to put the entire countryin danger. He is a selfish egotistical "narcissist " ( there's that buzz word again ) protected by the Capitol Hill gang of elites ( both parties ) to maintain power and control at any risk .
He should be immediately removed from office.
