Joe Biden's gaffethon goes into overdrive
By Monica Showalter

Is the presidential campaign trail getting to be too much for 76-year-old Joe Biden?

Any candidate can have a slip of the tongue now and then, but Biden's slip-ups rise to the level of gaffes, given that they reveal a bit more than he meant for them to reveal. And they're coming fast, now, too, cascading into a gaffethon.

Here's three he embarrassed himself with yesterday, with this pair noted by Fox News's Brit Hume on Twitter:

I think Trump's saying Biden isn't playing with a full deck is both accurate and funny as hell.

I just want to make sure I understand your post @mystery-ak … Your face palm is directed at the President's reaction to Joe Biden … the one out there calling Trump a racist, white supremacist responsible for the deaths in last weekend's shootings --- and not your reaction to Joe Biden, the senile liar and gaffe machine?

Is it possible I have this right?   :pondering:

Mr. Trump's right again.

Ol' Joe has 'way too many jokers in his deck...!

Missed the one where Biden in recent comments about banning AR15s said F15s.

This is going to be a daily event. Interesting that the leftist media are reporting his gaffes, though. Clearly, he's not their guy.

Biden Says He Was Vice President During the Parkland Shooting

  -  Latest gaffe on campaign trail by Democrats’ 2020 front-runner
  -  Deadly attack at school in 2018, after Biden had left office

Joe Biden said he was vice president when the deadly high school shooting in Parkland, Florida, took place. Except, it happened in 2018, more than a year after he left office -- the latest gaffe by the Democratic presidential front-runner.

Biden told reporters in Iowa on Saturday that “those kids in Parkland came up to see me when I was vice president.” But when they visited Capitol Hill to talk with members of Congress, lawmakers were “basically cowering, not wanting to see them. They did not want to face it on camera.”  ...
