Only a half dozen woman came forward, so we can say, slick Biden doesn't get too touch & sniffing, with all the woman he greets, like sneaky, Joe, wants you to believe.

You democrats ate in serious TROUBLE when they use comedy skits to make serious political points.

About time to share the wealth. Nothing wrong with political satire, but it needs to not be so one-sided.

It wasn't even funny tho snl needs some new faces

I was disgusted by the portrayal of Biden who is soft spoken, easy going and has a great temperament. This monologue was N OT even close and the player was ridiculous !!! I think they were way out of line on this one. !!!!

So it's (ridiculed) when it's PEDO Joe, but all in fun when it our GREAT PRESIDENT? GOT IT! frontholes

please check my designs thanks.

Sounds like SNL has a candidate in mind so they’ve started tearing the others down.

SNL never tries to humiliate Democrats like it did Sara Pahline or Donald Trump

Weird kinda tweet. Don't recall such a sedate reserved comment on SNL's 'comedy' when Conservatives or GOP are 'ridiculed' The usual headline is very gleeful. Anyone else?

But I thought SNL only makes fun of republicans...

Uh oh, JoeBiden! Time to hang it up!

... and no response from Donnie

A lot of Trump voters want to be touched by JoeBiden. Especially women.

REEEE!

who cares dont watch anyway

The Biggest Challenge to Joe Biden 2020 Is Joe Biden 1972If Joe Biden enters the presidential race, he’s betting he can appeal to a silent majority in the party that values experience and feels overlooked by its vocal, liberal base. That also encapsulates his weakness—a sense that he’s a candidate from another era. The issue crystallized in recent days when two women said he touched them inappropriately. Nah if you are a liberal the rules don't apply. See Ralph Northam. He isn’t progressive enough. There is a section of his party that is trying to destroy his chances.

Biden brushes off accusations with joke about 'permission' to hug male union president“By the way, he gave me permission to touch him.” Joe Biden twice jokes about having permission to hug or touch people during remarks at IBEW conference: If Kids ever dreamed of their dad to be like Pres of the United States, that came to a screeching halt after realDonaldTrump; this man is just outright lazy, abhorrent & no class whatsoever. “Wind causing cancer?”, LOL, shouldn’t we all be dead by now? It is not enoug Joe. He should joke. This 'outcry' is absurd and it makes Democrats look like we're ready to hand over another 4 years to Trump. Not because 'only Biden can beat him' or any of that. But because we're so caught up in outrage over a kiss on the head or a joke, we look like total fools.

Biden’s Problem Is His EgoOpinion: Joe Biden's fundamental offense is not realizing that some people might not be as into Joe Biden as Joe Biden is into Joe Biden. He has an ego, not a libido, problem. Few people could give us greater insight into trump’s finances than this longtime aide who wrote Trump’s business emails for him for years. We need to finally hear from her. But if she’s another John Barron, she’s a bigger story - about EPIC press failure. nope, he sees what's working for trump. Right or wrong, showing weakness is worse. Biden's problem is that he speaks and acts without thinking.
