Oh, wait. I think @Paladin was hoping Biden would be as ridiculously lacking in self-worth as trump and attempted to insult back.
I guess when the president is not self owning 3 or four times a day on twitter like orange dumbass people have to take what they can get. They all can't be covfefe and hamburders. Twitler set the bar way up high with the self humiliation, so I expect a little bit more. Fucking trump could not even walk down a ramp without making us laugh. Keep trying @Paladin.
I don't work for CNN. I don't know which is funnier: Biden agreeing with someone who told him to go fuck himself to his face, or y'all desperately talking about how good the Emperor's new suit looks.
What the fuck did you expect Joe Biden to do? Cuss the stupid troll out on live television? LGB is the most juvenile insult that ignoring it is all it deserves.
Which reminds me, these memes that came out in 2016 of Biden and Obama were hilarious, which we'd do this again but with him and Kamala Harris https://www.thewrap.com/joe-biden-memes-win-the-internet-and-our-hearts-photos/amp/
Yeah, I’m old enough to remember when Republicans didn’t act like spastic fifth graders. I’m also old enough to remember when they would’ve laughed someone like Trump out of the party, but they’re on his dick harder than any of his wives have been.
Well, it was a children's event, so playing it off instead of making a scene was probably the right call.
Ignoring it entirely would have been a much better play then repeating it and the saying he agrees. But I don't think he was just letting it go by. I think he mindlessly repeated it because he isn't aware of its significance. Which is hard to believe, but...
Because any MAGA idiot stupid enough to try assassinating or assaulting him might also be stupid enough to shout it beforehand.
Yep Hard to believe. It's unlikely, but conceivable at least that Biden has been insulated from all of the "Let's Go Brandon" stuff all over the internet, news media, billboards, T-Shirts, Bumper Stickers, etc...but his wife reacted pretty much the same way, and she has an actual job outside the Whitehouse. There's no freaking way she wasn't aware of its significance. It's almost like they knew it was coming.
I think the entire incident speaks more of the level of immaturity of conservatives, than Biden. … Wait … were you the caller? We’re you hoping to get a bunch of cool rep points for this?
Remember, we're a bunch of people who hang out on an internet BBS. Of course we know this shit. Biden is in the job that, famously, Dwight Eisenhower left in 1961 without knowing how to dial a phone. When you're the leader of the free world, so much information ends up on your plate that some stuff pretty much has to fall by the wayside, and it's not hard to imagine that "random shit that emotionally stunted 4chan types think is clever" might be on that list.
I'm sure they didn't know it was coming...no politician would risk that kind of embarrassment, certainly not without anything to gain from it. It's possible Joe is so insulated that he's not aware of it, though people were chanting it at his arrival in Kentucky during his visit last week. But his handlers better make sure he knows what it means, because people are going to be sneaking it in like that constantly. I don't think Joe's really capable of going off-script at this point.
I didn't mean that they planned it. I meant that they were going to be interacting with the public and may have figured it might come up.
And..."Let's go, Brandon. I agree," is the best comeback they could prepare? Saying nothing and just letting it go by would be a better response.
I don't know. I'm just saying that I don't buy for one second Jill Biden not knowing what it means, and she played it cool too.
You’re spinning your wheels, @Man Afraid of his Shoes. Paladin is absolutely certain someone was able to make Biden look as foolish as trump does to himself on a daily basis. You can’t discuss anything with his type. He doesn’t see the absurdity of the saying let alone the idiot who thinks he’s being clever. In Paladin’s mind, Biden should have come unglued.
Yes, and I'm sure Bush always knew how the Texas Rangers were doing. I just doubt that keeping up with Twitter -- or the juvenile antics of his predecessor's emotionally stunted fanbase -- is on Biden's list of recreational activities.
I think it's hilarious that Biden pissed off Paladin by not getting pissed off over a pea-brained insult.
Actually I just re-watched it, and Jill started laughing at "Let's Go Brandon". Not only did she get it, it tickled the crap out of her...so yeah. They definitely knew it was coming. But we're missing the forest for all the trees. Biden said "Happy Christmas"!
That's how it's said in the UK and was in common parlance until the 1940s or so. Unusual and colloquial but it's no "covfefe."
