Doll_Legs at this event, he suggests shooting people in the leg instead of the heart.

The lesser of two evils. Heaven help us all

That’s a classy thing to do.

Strange, because you published an article about the Memorial Day event Joe Biden and Dr. Biden attended, which took place a week ago. He looks to be pretty 'in-person' to me:

Please keep BidenIsARacist Fingers in his self-imposed basement

I didn’t see the part where joebiden outlined his detailed plans on reforming the criminal justice system, or how to lead thedemocrats to reform. “I'm confident it can be done...” is NOT a plan. After 40 years, if he needs to take notes from the crowd, there’s a problem.

Did he ever get tested for Covid? Why was he away so long?

First.... Other than showing up to talk to protesters over the weekend And of course Memorial Day ...

His comment about shooting people in the leg will go over big with the black community. 😂YouAintBlackBiden

We need a healer, not a divider.

He should travel to MN & show leadership role to meet family. I understand he is not president yet & will be criticized.

Biden staff donate to group that pays bail in riot-torn MinneapolisCampaign staff for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden are advertising their donations to a group that pays bail fees in Minneapolis after the city's police jailed people protesting the killing of a black man by a white police officer. Biden is a failure and all of these media-induced events over the last three months are merely hiding his inability to lead, much less speak coherently. It’s not hard to see the media manipulation. Wow, Biden's staff are bailing out white supremacists? You know Joe. He's very frivolous with your $$$.
