The propaganda about Joe's "dementia" is a bit over the top, why? Making it easier to step aside for the Left's pick of Harris, the Socialist president to be? Anything is possible...for this career politician who has all the buzz words and accolades for a strong acceptance speech vaguely familiar to thing President Trump has been saying...and the left smearing the POTUS for saying "good for America" things....however, the campaign keeping Joe in the basement has made him look like a coward...while this POTUS Trump, is out and about running the country. Joe won't even face reporters for questions....isn't that cowardly? Afraid he might catch something? Something smells fishy....

Was it pre recorded? If it was, he could have done it in segments and re-recorded parts that didn’t work.

Does any know if Biden’s speech was pre-recorded? I’ll bet it was.

Wonder what Biden’s handlers “juiced” him up with so he didn’t make a complete ass of himself, as usual.

Ignore the needle, Joe...this wont hurt a bit.

It’s possible Biden was on a drug cocktail to help him, well if so they can’t keep giving him that all the time.

If there were real journalists, Biden or his handlers would be asked if he is on medication for dementia, like Aricept, Razadyne, Exelonor Memantine.

Hollywood has may tricks to get perfection on film.

Older stars were filmed through a camera lens layered w/ vaseline to wipe away those wrinkles.

When mega-stars begin to lose their staying power on film——aging forgetful stars cant remember their lines,
are filmed in spurts...... then the filmed bits are edited and spliced together.

NOTE Former US Senator Chris Dodd is Biden’s best friend.......and is especially well-connected. After The Senate Swamp, in 2011 Dodd then went to Hollywood to become the Motion Picture Association of America chairman— Hollywood’s top lobbyist — representing the six major studios.


How Joe Biden won friends in Hollywood by helping studios get their movies into China

WASHINGTON — When then-Vice President Joe Biden hosted Chinese leader Xi Jinping for a five-day diplomatic blitz in 2012, a Hollywood Democratic mega-donor kept popping up with them. There was Jeffrey Katzenberg, then the head of DreamWorks Animation, dining alongside Xi, the then-vice president of China, at a State Department welcome lunch in Washington. And there he was again, standing just behind Xi, then-Gov.

Jerry Brown and then-Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa at a Lakers game in Los Angeles. And there was Katzenberg hanging out in a nearby hallway with Disney CEO Robert Iger to provide last-minute counsel as Biden closed a deal in which China committed to considerably expand its market for American films.

On the final day of Xi’s visit, Dreamworks announced Xi had signed off on the company’s own deal — the launching of Oriental DreamWorks, a $330-million joint venture with Chinese companies to develop and distribute animated films in China.

Several of the candidates vying for the Democratic presidential nomination have significant support in Hollywood — Katzenberg, for example, has kicked in $2,800 each to 14 of them already — but none has as long a history of delivering for the industry as Biden. His deep ties to studio executives and decades-long advocacy for their agenda has helped cement Biden’s support even as it may also open him to criticism for too cozy a relationship with big donors.

Biden is returning to Hollywood this week for another round of fundraisers, including the second Biden event co-hosted by Katzenberg and leaders of several major studios. Biden’s first Southern California fundraiser, which Katzenberg co-hosted in May, netted more than $700,000 in one night. “Joe was our champion inside the White House,” said former Sen. Christopher Dodd, who led the Motion Picture Assn. of America for much of the Obama era.

“There is no question about it. Even before Joe Biden decided to run, I would get calls and have conversation with the major studio figures, with them saying, ‘You tell Vice President Biden 100% we want him to run.’ This wasn’t waiting around to see who would do well in polls.”

He was all morose about how we were in darkness, and needed to be “led out”. I mean, maybe he’s been putting his mask over his eyes or something.

I’m not in darkness, although I guess if you are a democrat living in a city, you might be in darkness; if you are a democrat in california, you might very much be in the dark, and also very hot, right now.

But other than the left murdering people, beating people up, burning cities down, and stealing crap, there is a lot of light in this country now. Most of us are living our lives in peace, because we weren’t stupid enough to live somewhere run by democrats.

How did Biden get away with a COVID plan that doesn’t mention delivering a VACCINE?

It’s a tangled web that Joe is caught up in, isn’t it?

Interesting, today, to see of the Hollyweirdos with their panicked ‘warnings’ about voting for Joe, or....they’re busted, I mean, the country is at stake.

He can “veer” as much as he wants. He has already driven far far off of the left side of the road. He should have veered right after he clinched the nomination.
