    This was surreal. To his credit he eventually got into his groove as he moved through his list of approved journalists.

      He’s still going and he’s not doing great…

      Like, he is saying a lot of words, and they do seek to connect with the ones right next to each other most of the time. But it almost never has anything to do with the question after the first sentence or two

      I can’t tell if he’s pretending to talk to people or actually talking to people in the audience. Like I think he sees journalists making comments or reactions and addressing them.

      Edit:

      When asked if his delegates could vote for someone else if they don’t want him he said:

      That’s the Democratic process

      Then leaned in all creepy and whispered

      That’s not going to happen

      Edit 2:

      Fucking hell…

      They asked about “VP trump” at the end and said trump had already latched into it.

      When asked for comment Biden said:

      Listen to him

      Like? Listen to trump?

      Then did his best Monty Burns walk off stage.

      As with everything Biden, I highly recommend everyone watch it when they can.

        It went on too long, he started to lose his train of thought a few times. The end was weird too. I’m not sure “listen to him” meant what he thought it meant.

          The feeding frenzy at the end definitely confirmed that questions were pre-approved and they had to stick with them.

          He was hours late because he was cramming the answers for what he was knew was coming.

          Nothing about this was unscripted

      I don’t think he got into his groove at all. This guy is toast. And what’s with all the whispering?
