Biden pushes back on cognitive test question: ‘Why the hell would I take a test?' (Slo Joe asks "Are you a junkie?")

WASHINGTON — Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden shrugged off a question Tuesday about taking a cognitive assessment test, which President Trump has challenged him to do — while misrepresenting what the test measures. 

In an exchange with CBS’s Errol Barnett during a wide-ranging, multi-moderator interview at a conference of Black and Latino journalists, Biden balked at Barnett’s question about whether Biden had even taken an exam.

“No, I haven’t taken a test. Why the hell would I take a test?” responded Biden, who then posed a rhetorical analogy.

“C’mon man,” he chided Barnett. “That’s like saying, ‘You — before you got on this program you took a test where you’re taking cocaine or not, what do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?’”

Errol Barnett is black.

Any self-respecting black man would have immediately raised a middle finger and shouted “F*** YOU!” at mean old Joe.

A relative got PSP (what took out Dudley Moore).

Turned him from one of the kindest men I ever knew to a very mean man.

when under stress and speaking publicly his brain inserts something inappropriate for the instantly needed word.

So, like calling a young woman who asked a question a "dog-faced pony soldier"?

Joe was heard to say..Look man, I studied for three days solid to take a urine test. I’ve done enough.

Funny.

Maybe he was on that Pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) 'Urine Luck' masking agent. He takes it with his brain boosting anti-aging pills in the basement. And a light dose of meth to stay alert for a staged interview. Then nap time for six hours.

And AOC studied for a month to get into the Electoral College before her giggling bar pals told her it was just a prank.

The video is worse than the statement. He was an ass to the CBS reporter and invoking a racist stereotype because that's what Biden does but he seemed "OK" just an arrogant pr*ck but then... did anyone see he struggled to get out "physical and mental fitness?"

I think he just proved Trump's point.

He’s redefining what he meant by “tested all the time”
