Joe Biden 'appears to be going senile' so his VP pick holds extra importance | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Andrew Bolt says it often seems Joe Biden is 'going senile' so who he picks as vice president holds extra importance as he may in fact be picking the real US president if he were to win the election in November. \n\nMr Bolt discussed facets of American politics and the election with former White House staff member Barbara Heineback.\n\nMs Heineback said she didn't think Joe Biden 'would have a prayer if he didn't select a woman' as his running mate. \n\nImage: AP\n JoeBiden It’s nice to know that our potential VP was solely picked on their skin color and gender. We all saw how the last social experiment turned out in Obama’s inept presidency. Smh. Democrats are morons JoeBiden OMG, non-white and female, watch Sky News go bananas JoeBiden Would Andrew Bolt care to present his medical qualifications? Does Bolt accept that an aneurysm may cause a bit of verbal imprecision with no loss of wisdom? Or does he think 89 year old Rupert Murdoch is past it too?

It will be a 'material change' in election when Donald Trump defines Joe Biden | Sky News AustraliaSky News US political commentator Joe Hockey says the art of modern politics is to define your opponent before they can themselves in order to then destroy them, and “no one does it better than Donald Trump”.\n\nMr Hockey said this ability was on show throughout the 2016 campaign where President Trump defined former Florida governor Jeb Bush as low energy, Florida Senator as Little Marco, and Hillary Clinton as Crooked.\n\n“He hasn’t quite defined Joe Biden,” He told Sky News host Paul Murray.\n\n“Joe Biden is defining himself as a measured, sensible, almost like a grandpa.\n\n“It will be a material change in the election when Donald Trump defines Joe Biden with a name, with a cat call that encapsulates everything that may be a disadvantage for Joe Biden.”\n\nImage: AP JoeHockey realDonaldTrump I define Joe Hockey as the Treasurer whose dumb Budget killed Tony Abbott and then ran away himself to the USA to be Ambassador. If you cross-bred neo-liberalism with blancmange you'd end up with Joe Hockey. JoeHockey realDonaldTrump JoeHockey realDonaldTrump That may be true, but I'm pretty sure Joe Biden is doing most of the heavy lifting involved in defining people's perception of him. Unless you're implying someone is drugging him on Trump's behalf to get him that spaced out 🤣
