You asked a question and I offered my thoughts. I think that's why you would want the audio.

If there is no issue let's have a listen and move on - release the tapes?
My opinion is that, like many the previous audio/video, is that the GOP want to edit and present "alternative facts"

Not "look for nuance" biglaugh I'd suggest that if you really believe that, you're being a touch naiive

Why does that make you so pissy?
Questioning a viewpoint and looking for clarity on said viewpoint is being "pissy" now?

Attorney General Garland is held in contempt for refusing to comply with the House subpoenas to turn over the tapes of Hur / Biden.

The vote was 216 to 207.

The tapes cover Biden taking classified documents and storing them in his house, office and garage, these “serious risks to national security.”(Hur) were then shared with his ghostwriter Zwonitzer as part of an $8m book deal.

report on the storage https://www.justice.gov/storage/report-from-specia...

interview transcripts https://democrats-judiciary.house.gov/news/documen...

Press suggesting he will not face charges.

it looks like the tapes will not be released without a court case.

Big votes. The biggest. Guess they found some votes for Trump after all.

Biden can always claim execute privilege. Funny how that works both ways....

He's seen these videos and decided that the best thing for any politician to do in a dancing environment is keep very, very still?



That did cross my mind hehe
Joe Biden appears to freeze again at fundraiser as Barack Obama helps him off stage

It is the latest in a series of incidents that have sparked concerns about the president’s health.

You know that video has been doctored, right?

It's fake.

But of course you knew that already. You're just hoping everyone else is dumb enough to fall for it.

I don't believe they are fake but if they are I would like to know, rather than spitting the dummy why don't you post links to the doctored and original White House concert and campaign fund raising videos?

So not doctored or fake, just a case of reverse musical statues?

this one is like me doing my best dancing (I don't particularly like dancing). Would you rather an 80 yo man do Dad dancing?

He stayed upright and didn't treat on anyone's feet, which I would take as a win.



TonyToniTone said:
Less straight forward. By all means soak up the applause in a dignified way. Would a thumbs up have made it Ok I wonder?

Obama leading him away does change the tone of course, which is impossible to excuse away as doctoring.

(This is the potus 46 thread not the 47 thread, but I feel almost obligated to say I don't want trump as a president. This is because I know some people view a passing comment or criticism of one candidate as implicit endorsement of the other)

I see the Biden (pbuh) fanboys are still insisting he is compos mentis. Even the Jonestown inhabitants showed more independent thought.

Going to be a lot of disappointment when the debates happen, and Joe biden isn't a bumbling old coot.

That's the problem with creating these false narratives- reality doesn't give a damn.

Quite telling that the video rebuttal to the accusation that Biden froze on stage contains 10 different camera cuts, whereas the original one that is apparently “fake” has zero cuts.

Personally I don’t think either video shows anything, just an old guy standing in front of a crowd soaking up applause but it’s interesting seeing Obama being so involved in “handling” Biden, we saw the same previously at state of the union and to me gives the impression that it’s all hands on deck for Biden at the moment as he clearly can’t handle much alone.
