Author Topic: What is your favorite Biden gaffe? (Read 83088 times)

While campaigning against Trump, Biden once said "I am a gaffe machine, but my Gd what a wonderful thing compared to a guy who can't tell the truth." But this thread has mostly mg - manufactured gaffes, based on manipulation and editing of videos.

(I know what you'll say, @justaregularguy . "give me a break. Don’t compare Biden videos to DDF Credit Cards and Finance"

Here, the initial "And I quote..." was deleted, to make it look as if "End of quote" was some kind of cue rather than part of the text. "And I quote".... "End of quote" is commonly used to communicate to the listener where a quote starts and ends. This is the second time a Biden video has been manipulated in this way.

About his "lifelong speech impediment" I've seen videos of him talking from years ago, doesn't seem like he had a problem. It's all on YouTube maybe you can show us from those videos his "speech impediment".

It's been well-documented. Here's an article about it from when he was interviewed by a journalist who has a much more severe stutter.

@biobook why do you have this tendency to always go against the opinion of everyone else here?

I just say what I think, usually, although I'm occasionally /jk or /s and it may not be clear when that is.
This time, I'm serious.

Of course I want to hear what others think. Otherwise I would just sit here and talk to myself.

Won't answer that, since I consider all perspectives, rather than relying on labels.
But I will say that I could not, would not, did not vote for Trump.

Your quoting an article from 2020. Find something from earlier please.

Again, you can go on YouTube and watch him speak, he's been in public life for over 40 years. You don't see any problem with his speech in those videos.

Yet it never expressed itself in this way (or at least not on video).
