If you can’t see that the things Biden says are fundamentally, truly racist and prejudicial in a way that Trump has never said then I can’t help you.

Watch that video and listen to those quotes
I did. A huge proportion are very old and look bad in the light of modern ways of talking. Lots of people on the right are vocally against quotas - but use Biden talking about quotas as evidence he is racist? Some of them are clearly him being roo old to talk properly. At one point you can clearly see him slip on the word ‘bright’ and say ‘white’. That isn’t me apologising for him, it is evidently true as he does that little ‘did I mean to say that?’ pause after. There are other bits which are edited together and impossible to tell what has happened. Him smirking after being asked about black kids in school? I would like to see the whole clip. Everything on there is carefully pruned. I don’t trust these kinds of things. Get me the original clips and I will join in bashing him.

Some of it is him saying things which are much harder to defend. Lying about marching for black rights, for example. I have said before that the Democrats are way too right wing for me. They are more like the foul Tories and the Republicans are basically Religious Nut Jobs. I do think a party that is all about freedom that hates freedom to be gay or trans or a woman is funny though. You can keep the lot.

Once again you are attacking the source instead of the content.

Many of the things Biden says in that video are disgusting. Much worse than anything Trump has ever said.

Yet he gets a totally free pass. You have to ask yourself - why?
It's a mash up of out of context quotes, part quotes and fakes spliced together. Both septic parties are far to right wing for me to respect.

HAHAHAHA.

So after multiple posts accusing me of defending trump, and excising his behaviour…

You decide to defend the worst behaviour possible from Biden. Unbelievable

Can you read? I specifically didn’t defend him. I asked you to find me the original clips so I could make a reasoned decision. You make it so hard to have a reasonable conversation with you. Why do you do that?

Perfect example of a deliberate misunderstanding and quote, no way is Biden being defended. It's the fake, lying and misleading video clips you persist in posting that are in question.

I don’t even know they are fake. I didn’t say that. I did say the way they are edited makes it hard to tell what the truth is. Apparently asking for proof is a Trump only thing?

As an aside, when you hear Biden slip up when he's talking so that he misspeaks, looks forgetful or appears mentally ill at ease, it's worth bearing in mind that he's overcome a terrible stammer. I have a stammering brother so I'm used to those effects but it's frustrating that it's so little known about with regards to Biden.

Vin

^^^This. I always mention this to anyone who will listen.

Imagine having a terrible stammer, then doing public speaking for a living. The slowness that is associated with old age is perhaps just him managing his stammer.
 
Boris Johnson and his supporters have claimed that Sue Gray’s decision to accept a job from Keir Starmer implied that she was biased when investigating Partygate.

Jesus may love the Johnson and his cronies. Everyone else thinks they're a bunch of ****s.
