The video shows a clip of Biden nodding off during a Maui victim meeting, which includes children.

This on top of the delayed response (Biden vacationing and refusing to talk to journalists) and also making sure no tragedy goes to waste by tying in bloated Ukraine funding to the Maui funds, will this be a significant issue for Biden? Or can the crony corporate media partners in the government successfully spin this away yet again?

What do you guys think?

He’s a blathering idiot 
Talking about his corvette 
Trying to compare the “almost” loss a home due to a stove issue to that of the sheer de estate on in Maui. 
Falling asleep at the table with others around him. 
Total disgrace.

I'm sure once the footage of Biden talking about how Hawii is "surrounded by big water, like ocean water", throwing paper towels into the crowd, bragging about how only 16 or 17 people have died when it was actually about 3,000, puts out a tweet about how Hawaiians are to blame for their own slow response, and then especially after an inspector generals report shows that Biden purposefully blocked federal aid all goes viral... people will realize what an embarrassment he is.

Yes, President Trump in 2017 said the disaster relief effort in Puerto Rico is complicated because it is “surrounded by water.” 
“This is an island, surrounded by water. Big water. Ocean water,” the president said during a speech in Washington on his tax plan.
 
The comments come as Trump has come under fire for his administration’s response to Hurricane Maria. 
 
Trump has repeatedly cited Puerto Rico’s location as a hurdle toward a speedier recovery.

So this won't cause Biden any problems?


Interesting spin from politifax:

"Biden bowed his head"

I guess you could say that credibly if he didn't suddenly jerk it back up as if someone yelled in his earpiece....

Megyn Kelly 
Didn’t Trump call her a bimbo? I’m am not surprised TWS watches her. That’s his idea of true journalism.

After trying to be normal, and failing miserably, she is back to dressing like a cocktail waitress and spewing gossip.

Is this going to be a problem on the scale of his Afghanistan blunder?

What does the left-tribe really think about the response? Adequate? Can't be better? Possibly problematic?

Get the fuck out of Afghanistan.....Wise move....The bad move was going there.

Fires  in Hawaii.....Mr Biden was probably in Washington DC, so hose wouldn't reach. Mr Biden should have had a longer hose....Naughty Mr President.

Sleepy Old Joe dozes off....Sleepy Old Joe needs a power nap.

Exactly what problems do you believe this example should cause for Biden?

Also, for the sake of testing your intellectual honesty in this conversation, what is your characterization of Trump's handling of hurricane Maria?

OGP, your MAGA cult, single track player never changes.

Maui is not a 20 year war zone as was Vietnam  and/or Aghanistan, 

Please use your mind to differrentiate between :

1}  a war zone in a stone age country and,

2} a  wild fire in USA island paradise. 

Do you think you can make any attempt to  do  that?

False Zed. The problem was narrowing our operations there. There really was no alternative to rooting out the terrorists.

Sleepy Old Joe dozes off....Sleepy Old Joe needs a power nap.
Politi fact >>> ..." President Joe Biden’s critics often inspect his public appearances for signs that he is unfit to lead. A common false claim is that he falls asleep during important events. The latest iteration is no different. "..

Zed, do you know what the truth and facts are in these claims?

GP sounds like Tucker Carlson. 

“I’m confused I don’t really follow this” “can you explain it to me?”

4 major bloopers of the president:

1) Sent 200 million to Ukraine at the same time he only sent a one-time-only 700 dollars per household...
2) Definitely zoned out during the survivor meeting.
3) Made a weird Bidenesque speech comparing a giant inferno, killing a thousand+ people to a small kitchen fire...Because of course it's all about Joe.
4) Vacationed for 13 days before addressing the national emergency.

Facts?

Who actually knows the difference between fact and propaganda?

Prigozhin. Did he fall or was he pushed?


As for the knee jerk reaction that led to The U.S. et al invading Afghanistan.

History repeating itself, doomed to failure.

Indiscriminate civilian deaths, no more or less terrorism dressed up as counter terrorism.

In my book.


As for sleepy Joe.

The guy is OK.

But too old.

Media and conservative propaganda will inevitably find value in the sleepier bits.

Facts in my book.

Yeah facts and truth. Youve heard of them.

But too old

Where is evidence of a performance risk by Biden, ---years of experience---   via his age? You offered none.

At best, ---or worset--  his weak link may be Harris. She may be a doubled edged sword yet she helped to get the vote and get rid of the mob boss Trumpet.

We dont know how well a person can do in an office until their put in place of authority to make critical political calls. Name a president, or prime minister who has not errored.

I think performance risk by Trumpet is much more obvious.

93 indictments of crime by four differrent grand juries  is plenty enough evidence for me of lacking job performance integrity.  Most  of it is obvious to non-MAGA cult observers.

See post 5. Replace Biden with Trump, and replace Hawaii with Puerto Rico.

Yeah. That's kind of my point.

I'm all for having an honest conversation about Biden's handling of Hawaii, but if you have nothing to say about Maria or don't even know anything about Trump's handling of it, then you don't really care about this.

As I stated.....Joe is OK.

The too old, was relative to the sleepy Joe thing.

How incisive he might be at 80 years of age, might be discussion point.

How incisive he might be at 85 might be another issue.

Might to might be ratio declining rapidly.


Donald not too far behind.

Though I'm not sure how steep his intellectual incline ever was.

Along with a lot of the red hatted backwood brigade.

They play a mean banjo though.
