I always found it very _interesting_ that out of all the wealthy liberal philanthropists in the world, the Republicans picked the one that Putin hates most to be their bogeyman. ---

That seems more evil than stupid, IMO. ---

Did you hear about the time (less than a week after his inauguration) Fox News Peter Doocy yelled out “What did you and Putin talk about?” at the end of a press conference? Biden came back with “You. He sends his best” > **[WATCH: Joe Biden's Witty Response to Pro-Trump Reporter Leaves Netizens in...](https://www.news18.com/news/buzz/watch-joe-bidens-witty-response-to-pro-trump-reporter-leaves-netizens-in-splits-3357116.html)** > > Biden was asked about what he discussed with Russian President Vladimir Putin on a recent call between the leaders.

The dude has always had a level of snark that is unprecedented in politicians. I remember when he was visiting some baker as VP, and some teabagger thought he would get him with a “gotcha” question. He was asked something along the lines of "How long have you been [some stupid conspiracy crap]? He responded with something like “How long have you been an asshole?” ---

He responded with something like “How long have you been an asshole?” I had no idea. I supported Biden as a bland person who would offend as few people as possible as president, but this information is causing me to re-evaluate. 😉 ---

Hilarious as that is, the implication that people who want to “defend the police” are in any way equivalent to the batshit insanity of the people who think Biden drinks blood is troubling. Both Sides-ism is incredibly ingrained in our society. ---

It had to be MSNBC, I think. When I turned on the TV Rachel was on and then way too early. But I can’t find it online either. ---

> [@Ann\_Hedonia](#): > > Fox News needs to start paying rent to Biden and Jen Psaki, because they own young Doocy every time he opens his mouth. Evidently Doocy, Fox News, and Fox News viewers don’t see this happening at every press conference, because he keeps asking what he thinks are ‘gotcha’ questions. Or perhaps they think the mere act of asking these inane questions is owning Biden and Psaki. ---

Biden can have a quick wit, but it can sometime turn against him when it falls flat. That is how he got his reputation as a gaff machine. ---

Unfortunately, even the Democrats hold Biden to a higher standard than just about anybody up to and including Jesus Christ Himself. Joe needs to get busy and change that water into wine asap–and it damn well better be **good** wine, too. ---

A reporter asked him if there are Democrats who think we should defund the police, and Biden asked the reporter, are there Republicans who think we are sucking the blood out of kids? The reporter said, “I don’t know”, and Biden smirked and walked away. ---
