He didn't really say that, did he?

He did.

The connection between Iran and Ukraine is apparent to those who think in terms of 3D chess. D for dementia.

[Horace]

I wonder if Biden will be made aware of that gaffe, or if his handlers let it slide.

[89th]

Well to be fair, Biden was 49 years old when Ukraine gained its independence and back then there was a debate if the "k" was silent. So he didn't say Iranian, he said Urainian. Obv.

Also... anyone else see Pelosi literally almost fall over when she got up so fast after the "support our veterans" line? Man, that was so close to being THE highlight of the night.

Other than the 13 dead soldiers in Afghanistan which didn't get a mention.

[George K]

And as I said in another thread, the "Greatest Threat to Our Democracy()" didn't get mentioned either.

[89th]

Good points, GK. Although, the 13 dead soldiers did get a mention..... sorta.

Stephen Greene:

Biden says he'll have the backs of transgender kids.

Finally, there's a joke so dirty I won't even drunkblog it.

You're welcome.

[George K]

And of course, "Defund the police" was never, ever a thing.

[Improviso]

Biden says he'll have the backs of transgender kids.

Back in the days when Biden was in Congress, he loved his pages bent over.

It was remarkable how strong of a "We must FUND the police!" statement he made, to a rowdy applause. If there has ever been a clearer case of spineless politicians, that was it. Can you imagine ANY of them (Joe, Kamala, et al) saying that 12-18 months ago?

“Defund the police”, faithfully parroted by your local lefties, is the greatest proof I’ve seen that there is no limit to the stupid the leftist masses will parrot if called upon to do so.

Haha gotta love Musk. Almost like a movie character.

I wonder if the dem strategists told Biden that now, under the distraction of COVID and WWIII, that now is the time to pivot back on a few stances (like immigration and funding the police) that have grown unpopular.

Even in 2020 Joe said that the “defund” movement was misguided. Don’t remember his exact words.

Either he didn't tell his caucus or they didn't listen.

They had different strategies in the primary. And it didn’t work out well for them.
