Yikes! Biden: ‘Poor Kids Are Just As Bright And Just As Talented As White Kids’

S E E D E D   C O N T E N T



Oh my, this one may just do Sleepy Joe in…

Via   NY Post:


Gaffe-prone presidential hopeful Joe Biden put his foot in his mouth during an Iowa campaign stop on Thursday when he told a group of predominately Asian and Hispanic voters that “poor kids are just as bright, just as talented, as white kids.”

Biden committed the stunning blunder while speaking about education at a town hall with the Asian and Latino Coalition in Des Moines, where he’s campaigning and fundraising for the 2020 Democratic primary.

“We should challenge students in these schools and have advanced placement programs in these schools. We have this notion that somehow if you’re poor, you cannot do it,” Biden said at the event, according to video of his remarks.

“Poor kids are just as bright, just as talented, as white kids,” he added.

I just posted (and deleted) the same thing!

There's your 'front runner' folks. His gaffs could cause a war.

This utter triviality passes for a  "stunning" gaffe.  ROFL.

Trump says something worse than that every hour of every day.

Trump is out gaffing him 100 to 1.  That is better in anyone's book.

And Trump is a walking racist, misogynist, and xenophobe.

Which would you prefer?  Someone that makes a mistake every now and then, or someone that rules based on hate?

Never mind, I know which YOU prefer.

Because YOU say he is?

Of course not.  Because of his history of racist statements and actions.

Donald Trump’s long history of racism, from the 1970s to 2019

Your deflection seeds have been pathetic lately.  But your support and defense of Putin's puppet is duly noted each time.

Speech at the state fairground in Des Moines -

“There is nothing we’ve ever decided to do we’ve been unable to do," he said. "Period. That’s not hyperbole. We have never, never, never failed when we’re together. And ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to get up. Everybody knows who Donald Trump is. Even his supporters know who he is. We got to let him know who we are. We choose unity over division. We choose science over fiction. We choose truth over facts ."

I'm not so sure this was a 'gaff'. Many Democrats create their own 'truths'.

This was a good read:

Do you know anyone who speaks with great certainty about everything? Someone who makes statements such as, “Wrong!” or “That’s ridiculous!” or “You're completely incorrect!” when someone disagrees with him or her?

Such people are often insufferable and are seldom genuinely liked. Their philosophy is “I think I know, therefore I absolutely know!” Or they declare, “My opinion is not just an opinion, it's a fact.”

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Trump started his campaign with (in effect): 'I am unabashedly rich, I am crude, I am a jerk, that is how I roll'.   Biden is well known for his gaffes.   Trump seems to be immune to backlash for being caustic and crude.   I wonder if Biden will be similarly immune to backlash on gaffes ('yeah, that is just how Biden is').

An interesting "gaffe"

A 'straight pride' organizer in California accidentally called his organization a 'peaceful racist group'

Joe is not unfamiliar with the taste of his own shoes. He frequently sticks his foot in his mouth and has been doing so for decades. While this is a humorous gaff and may or may not effect his candidacy, it's not as if he called all white kids "rapists". I'd much rather see a Liz Warren/Michelle Obama ticket than vote for another old white male career politician prone to gaffs and weirdly inappropriate hugs and hair sniffing. With that said, virtually anything other than Trump would be a relief from this political nightmare we've been saddled with since 2016. A half eaten room temp tuna sandwich would make a better President than defective Donald.

Oh, Uncca Joe! You are the gift that keeps on giving. It's hard to get mad at him, though, cuz he's always so chummy and friendly when jamming his foot in his mouth.

Hasn't Trump inoculated us to politicians saying really fucking stupid things? Seriously, people who support Trump are jumping on Biden for this? What the fuck, is this the twilight zone?

It is for the left. Biden's problem is there is DECADES of racist comments and associations that are on record and fairly easily retrievable.

With Trump, however, much of the things he is accused of saying is by third party persons with little to no true documentation.

While both of them have said some stupid shit, Biden by far has more against him.

More than one post here could interject Trump for Biden.
