This was awkward.

Joe Biden arrived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Monday afternoon for a campaign event.

The 77-year-old brushed off reporters after he deplaned.

A few dozen people (including media) showed up for Biden’s ‘big speech’ on Monday.

Joe Biden sounded winded as he read from a teleprompter and blamed Trump for left-wing violence.

Okay, is it me or does he have a rather “blank” look on his face. It’s like he isn’t really there.

Trump needs to literally say this and also tell the seniors they will get a check until death. And 250 after. Nothing is changing. I know he fights, but I want more!

[Buttons12]

Oh noes! Trump is “stroking” violence!!

[jdsteel]

“Was Kamala with him or is she out doing her own thing?”

I believe she was out doing someone else’s thing.

#37: "less than a hundred including staff, media, and secret service."

And there was a medical team too.

The point of the speech was to green light violent Democrats into committing more violence because it’s “Trump’s fault.” This is an old page from the Dem/Never Trump playbook going back to when violent Democrats attacked a Chicago Trump rally. Recall Cruz blaming that violence on Trump? Well, here we go again.

A few dozen. Secret Service, his handlers, his staff, his media and local media would make up a few dozen.

Biden is not exactly generating a lot of enthusiasm.

Ha...I really was thinking what you commented :)

[hsmomx3]

I have a feeling she regrets accepting the VP slot. I don’t think she wants to be in hiding like Joe, not campaign, and would prefer to speak her mind. Then again, the powers that be would rather she keep her mouth shut.

The democrats have almost no real support. It’s why they have to cheat like crazy to win. It’s why they pay people to riot for them.

RAWHIDE!

In the foreground of the shot I saw was a weedy, deserted-looking field where the few spectators who attended were standing. It was a pathetic photo op.

One thing they’re doing with Biden—he’s reading from a teleprompter but it must be right in front of him. It makes it look like he’s speaking directly to you rather than turning his head from side to side to see what’s scrolling on the teleprompter. I think that’s a good idea.

[Trumplican]

If Biden comes near me, I am definitely showing up.

“Dang! I missed the rally...”

I can’t believe nobody started a dedicated thread to this colossal event!!

[fortes fortuna juvat]

If there was no crowd here that means Joe didn’t want one.

What?

The democrats have almost no real support.

Not true unfortunately. They have the support of nearly everyone who relies on the government teat for sustenance. Welfare recipients, public employees, academia, etc. Probably around 45% of the country if you add it all up.

[fortes fortuna juvat]

I hope all of my liberal friends
....................................
Ah, I think you have a problem there!

[dfwgator]

Probably around 45% of the country if you add it all up.

Romney said 47%, the one right thing he said that whole campaign.

[Buckeye McFrog]

If there was no crowd here that means Joe didn’t want one. ........................................ What?

What I said. If Joe had wanted a crowd the public employee unions here would have produced one. They've done it in the past. You get the day off but if you don't show up at the speech you're in deep sh** with the union.

His handlers probably fear an interaction even with a friendly crowd at this point.
