Democratic presidential candidate former Vice President Joe Biden speaks at Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry in Manitowoc, Wis., Monday, Sept. 21, 2020. On a recent Friday, he'd already apologized for the delayed start to a speech, then taken more questions than expected at a subsequent press conference. When it was finally over, Biden's motorcade sped away quickly enough to leave behind one of the journalists travelling with it.
With their packed schedules, relish for meeting as many people as possible and natural tendency toward verbosity, most presidential candidates -- and the commanders in chief they sometimes become -- rarely get anywhere, or do anything, on time. Even controlling for typical on-the-trail tardiness, however, Biden has been pushing it lately.
Not all presidents, or candidates hoping to occupy the White House, are chronically late. George W. Bush had a rule about always starting on time. No commander in chief in recent memory, however, was so often tardy as Clinton. His ignoring of the clock was so common that those who knew him in Arkansas referred to "Clinton Standard Time," which ran at least 15 minutes behind the rest of the world. By the time Clinton was running for president in 1992, it had become "Elvis Time," which meant adding up to an extra hour or two to any scheduled start time.
While campaigning, meanwhile, nearly all politicians run late because, when they have a chance to get in front of voters, they can't stand to tear themselves away -- knowing each personal interaction all but guarantees a vote.
Has no one notice that Trump is always late. Biden talks to reporters and gets behind. Trump makes people wait up to half an hour sometimes and has no excuse.
He actually just gon die after he wins so kamila can be president

How about running a story about what socks Justin is wearing to the throne speech? It’s a Canadian subject and about as thought provoking as you get while serving softballs to this government.
That’s not a serious as battling senility.
Now do Trump's punctually...

This is the 3rd time he ran for President. 1988 - dropped out due to multiple plagiarism 2008 - got smoked 2020 - he can barely finish a sentence. He has taken 300 questions to Trumps 1200. Most of Bidens are pre-planned too. Trumps aren’t.
it's hard when you have dementia and your doctor/wife is trying to find that medicated sweet spot.
And CTVNationalNews battles 'choric' stupidty. What ABOUT CANADIAN NEEDS? On the eve of our supposed ' real big thing' THRONE SPEECH, NOTHING? YOU got nothing?
He's still grieving the 200 million people that died during his last speech.
He’s got something wrong with him....it’s simply not right they are propping him up like this
