Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

Who derailed the first stimulus bill and guaranteed the second won't pass because they put "sneaky" things in it like and end to deportations and letting everyone out of jail.

But who is keeping score after all?

And Biden has shown a Loony-Tunes like resiliency to get back up and do stupid things only seconds after his last stupid thing left him disappearing down a chasm with a whistle and distant puff of dust..... hasn't he?

Didn't see this discussed anywhere, but the NYT published an opinion piece that was super critical of ronan farrow a few days ago. A lot of people were speculating that he is working on a story about joe biden & this was the campaigns attempt to get ahead of the story and make it look less credible. It seems possible to me. I don't know how tara reade could be the only one with a creepy joe story (outside of all the child sniffing footage), if people would reach out to anyone it would probably be ronan farrow.

A deputy of Verkovnaya Rada (the Ukrainean parliament) named Andrey Derkach published a recorded conversation between the former Ukrainean president Poroshenko and Mr. Biden that happened in March 2016.

According to it, Mr. Biden offered 1 billion dollars to Poroshenko if he stopped investigation into Burisma (the oil company hosting Biden's son as a board member) and fired Viktor Shokin (the prosecutor dealing with the case).

Shokin was fired 4 days after the conversation.

Former Vice President Joe Biden once bragged about nearly being arrested for chasing a “lovely group of women” into an all-female dormitory in his youth.

Biden, who is now under scrutiny after facing sexual misconduct allegations from a former Senate staffer, regaled voters during a campaign swing through Athens, Ohio, in October 2008, with a story about what occurred during his last visit to their city. At the time, Biden, who was the Democrat vice presidential nominee, claimed he had journeyed to the city for a football game between his alma mater, the University of Delaware, and the local, Athens-based Ohio University sometime in 1963.

“Now I made a little mistake here that day, I made a little mistake,” Biden told the crowd at the time. Adding, according to reporters in attendance, with a wink that after the game he wandered around and “met this lovely group of Ohio University…students.”

Biden proceeded to explain that he attempted to convince two young women he met on the campus to join him and some friends at a local establishment.

“And uh, without knowing it, I shouldn’t admit this on national television because it’ll reveal that I’m over 60, but I thought that we were gonna go get something to eat,” he said. When the “two young women” claimed they would “be right back,” he offered to escort them to their dormitory, where trouble quickly ensued with campus security.

“I said well I’ll come with you, and they said okay, and I walked into their dormitory and was immediately accosted by a cop who arrested me because back in those days men were not allowed in women’s dormitories,” Biden said. “But I promise you I never breached the first floor and it was only a temporary detention.”

“But that’s what I most remember about Athens,” he added. “So folks look, it’s good to be back here.”

The story when it first emerged made headlines not only because Biden had never disclosed a previous arrest, but also because it came at the time the vice presidential nominee was becoming known for his frequent gaffes on the campaign trail.

At one point the gaffes even drew the rage of Biden’s running mate, future President Barack Obama, who rhetorically asked staffers on a conference call just “how many times is Biden gonna say something stupid.” They did not, however, prevent the Democrat ticket from sweeping the electoral college that fall, allowing Biden to work his way into Obama’s good graces by helping shepherd the administration’s stimulus and healthcare initiatives through Congress.

Despite the progress, Biden would continue telling the story about his brush with law enforcement during subsequent trips to Ohio. Most notably, while campaigning for the Democrat ticket in 2012, he once again told voters in Athens about the incident, albeit this time clarifying that he was not arrested, but came close.

“The last time I was here, I want to make clear to the press, I didn’t get arrested, but I almost did, because back in those days, you students won’t appreciate this, men weren’t allowed anywhere near a woman’s dorm,” Biden said.

“And I got invited into a dorm. I thought I was walking into the waiting room; I got brought into the hallway,” he said. Adding, through laughter, and “I got escorted out very quickly by an Athens policeman.”

The story of Biden’s trip to Athens comes back into the spotlight as the former vice president is under fire and facing accusations of sexual assault.

Last month, Tara Reade, who came forward in April 2019 to accuse the former vice president of unwanted touching and sexual harassment, revealed there was more to her story. Reade now claims that Biden pushed her up against a wall, kissed her, and forcibly penetrated her with his fingers, while she was briefly employed by his Senate office in the early 1990s.

The accusation has been difficult to corroborate given that nearly 30 years have passed since it supposedly took place. As such, Reade has sought to make public the sexual harassment complaint she allegedly filed in 1993, especially as former Biden staffers claim no such document exists.

Reade, for her part, contends that not only does the complaint exist, but it is likely within the thousands of Senate documents the former vice president donated to the University of Delaware in 2011.

Less than a week after he said he was “really resisting” giving President Trump a nickname, it appears Joe Biden’s changed his mind.

The former vice president and presumptive Democratic nominee revealed on Monday that he’s calling Trump “President Tweety.”

Arguing that the president’s been slow to get federal relief aid to the American workers and businesses hurt by the shutdown of much of the nation’s economy the past two months to slow the coronavirus pandemic, Biden noted, “Trump is out there tweeting again this morning. I call him President Tweety. Reopen the country, end of quote.”

Biden, addressing the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Victory Fund’s progressive summit, added, “How are we supposed to do that if you're sitting on the money small businesses need in order to stay alive? Stop tweeting about it. Get the money out to Main Street now. It’s there. It’s been passed.”

The president’s famously known for his voracious tweeting habits at all hours of the day and night.

The president’s long called Biden "Sleepy Joe" in an attempt to raise doubts about his opponent’s physical condition and fitness for office.

Biden, in an interview with Snapchat that was posted last week in Vanity Fair, said that “Trump is a master at laying nicknames on people,” but added that, “I can hardly wait to get onto the stage with Donald Trump.”

The former vice president stressed that “in terms of energy ... I don't have any problem comparing my energy level to Donald Trump.” And he added that “I'm really resisting giving a nickname to” the president.

Problem is, the same thing could be said about Obama as of this current day and age.
Don’t try to underestimate the fact that identity politics is no joke.

If anything, if it’s not Kanye, I’d love to see a female version of Trump in the near future.
It’s only a matter of time when that happens.
