 Biden camp says verbal stumbles are just ‘Joe being Joe’

“Joe’s always been gaffe-prone — it’s just a piece of who he is.”

That’s the excuse coming from the Joe Biden camp as to why the former vice president and 2020 Democratic front-runner keeps having to put his foot in his mouth while on the campaign trail, with multiple verbal stumbles coming in recent days.

“Joe Biden has spoken his mind his entire life, which voters know and love about him,” said Kate Bedingfield, Biden’s communications director and deputy campaign manager, in an interview with the New York Times.

“He’s a real person, he’s authentic and that will never change,” she told the paper.

Campaign advisers and allies insist that despite what some people say, it is not Biden’s age that’s causing him to slip up — it’s just in his nature.

“Joe’s always been gaffe-prone,” said Rev. Joseph Darby, a longtime supporter from South Carolina.

Ever since he got that plate in his head, yeah.  Joe's got a whole 5-piece place setting of plates in there by now.
