Speaker 1 (00:00):
As President Biden's term winds down, we thought we would
pay homage to that silver tongue devil with our best
did he really just say that? Moments from this past
year aka are favorite Bidenism moments where the president was confused, mumbled, lied,
or was just downright mean and may have changed the
history of the election. By the way, I'm Nancy Shack.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
I'm Ben Parker.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
This is news bite.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Only garbage icee floating down there is his supporters, his
his his demonizational scene is unconscionable, and it's on America.
I also want to mention commerce Deborah Ross. Where's Deborah
this year? I just had my picture taken away her.
That's probably why she left. No kid anyway you can, oh,
(00:58):
she couldn't be here?
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Actually is it?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Do you think that you can cut a hostage deal
by at the end of your term hit the head
by camera behind you?
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Yeah, that was kindly Uncle Joe, the man who was
supposed to bring civility to the White House, telling reporter
she was going to get hit in the head.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Maybe you just heard it wrong.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
With the camera. Well one eleven c.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Do you think that you can cut a hostage deal
by the end of your term.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Think you get hit in the head by camera behind you.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
So you can get hit the head by the camera.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Well, it's not the only time. And if he would,
if we never had any other instances where he was mean,
then maybe I'd say we just interpreted that. Yeah, but
he is. He's a piece of work. I I I
will say as a as a fourteen year old, I
was a US Senate page. He was mean. Then I
(01:56):
knew him as a mean guy. So when he ran
as as you know, mister wonderful sweet the guy who
was really kind, I'm like, that's not Joe Biden. What
the hell are they talking about? And but they sold
that bill goods to the public, and that's what they bought,
and that's what they thought they put in the White
House instead. I want to play for you a couple
of times in this past year where he has kind
(02:18):
of you know, snapped at the press. For instance, cut
one sea did you hear that? No, it's when he
went back to Okay. And then there's let's see cut
(02:39):
number fourteen. He's at a meeting with the British Prime
Minister Kier Starmer. He's wonderful here, what do you say?
Speaker 3 (02:49):
I speak.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Okay, that's what I'll say.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
Good idea. What do you say to Flim? It's a
serious thing. You got required and I'm going to make
a statement. People care, all right? Welcome?
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Yeah? How about at this Zelenski presser or at the
G seven where he admonishes Josh Weingrove of Bloomberg for
asking a question cut twenty six don't mind.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
I'd like to ask you about your discussions on the
situation in Gaza here at the summit. You were asked
us a short time ago about it after the skydepping demonstration.
Can you give us your assessment of Hamasa's response and
do you believe that they are trying to work towards
a deal or is this response working against a deal?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
And what is your.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Message to allies, including those here at the G seven
about what more, if anything, the US can do to
drive towards a piece of green Thank you.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
I wish you guys were a little play by the
rules a little bit. I'm here to talk about a
critical situation in Ukraine. You're asking me another subject about
I'll be happy to answer in detail.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
He wasn't talked, and then this one I liked. He
was just he just pissy cut fifteen.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
So I want to thank you all for being here.
And now who am I introducing? Next?
Speaker 1 (04:11):
It was next he's just shouting to the staff at
that next. Yeah, he's he's just mean. Is there any
wonder his dog was biting people? I mean, he's just mean.
He's just a mean guy. He's always been a mean guy.
But people were sold the fact that he was, you know,
a nice sweet guy. He isn't. He's never been a
nice sweet guy. He's always been a piece of you know, what.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
Makes you wonder? And of course you you did work
on Capitol Hill, but it makes you wonder as an outsider, right,
like I am. Yeah, if he's like that in public.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
What's he like in private?
Speaker 4 (04:40):
What?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
And that was and that was in public through a lens.
They basically put a fuzzy lens over him so people
wouldn't see the rough edges. He's always been a piece
of work. But at least I'll give him this. At
least when he's being mean, you can understand what he
is saying. Unlike here, for instance, here's a here's a
mumbling moment from juneteenth cut eleven A.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
I awarded the Medal of Freedom to miss Oprah Lee
as well her grandmother of June teen knows. She knows.
So long as it was nine, our freedom can never
be secured.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Okay, noah, wait, I don't know what that is? Yeah
it is? Or here he is in he was stomping
in westby, Wisconsin, Cut twelve.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
A invest so around from country around. I travel from
North Korea anyway, south South Korea to across the world
to get these computer chip factories to come up.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, yeah, or here's a good one. This is in
front of NATO Cut two.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
For five additionals TODT defense systems.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Do you have any dea what that was?
Speaker 2 (05:52):
That's a big speech systems systems.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Or you know, also in front of NATO Cut three.
Speaker 3 (05:58):
In Europe, who war of aggressionary against Ukraine continues and
food wants nothing less, nothing less in Ukraine's total subjugation,
end Ukraine's democracy, destroy you raised rais Ukraine's culture and
to wipe Ukraine off the map. And we know Putin
(06:19):
won't stop at Ukraine.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
He did get Ukraine in there about ten times. But
then there's the three or four times he didn't.
Speaker 5 (06:25):
You know what I think his problem was there, and
I think maybe it's his problem sometimes. I mean, there's
a lot of problems, but don't talk so fast.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
He was talking.
Speaker 5 (06:34):
He talks, so yeah, maybe he was talking kind of
fast and and and for him, uh, an older gentleman,
regardless of the fact that Biden does it a lot,
but any older gentleman probably shouldn't talk too fast because
your tongue will get wrapped around your dentures and then
you can't.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I think that's a valid point. And I've noticed him
like pushing off on his dentures on more than one
occasion with his thumb, So I'm thinking, maybe they're all wet.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
We get the pad.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
But you know, it's really funny is you can hear
him clearest when he is lying, and which is which
is pretty mean or lying which is really kind of interesting.
For instance, here he is he's campaigning. He was campaigning,
I believe at this point for a Kamala I think
had already been kicked off the ticket. And he's in
(07:17):
front of the Economic Club in DC and he tells
the Economic Club point blank that he has never once
spoken to the chairman of the FED. That's cut two hundred.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
And by the way, I've never once spoken to the
Chairman FED since I became president.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Okay, so point blank, there is no there's no equivocation there.
Never spoken to him except that him here he is
as president in May of twenty twenty two, cut two
hundred day, first.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
One to begin. But I congratulated he with some chairman
on a recent confirmation of second term, along with doctors
Branard and Cook and Jefferson recent confirmations and a meeting
with chairman today, and it's yelling to discuss my top priority,
and that is addressing the flat.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
So he's sitting there with the chairman and he has
a meeting with the Chairman that afternoon.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I've never spoken to the chairman, not once, well.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
You know, clear as day, though that like clear as day.
Speaker 5 (08:20):
Maybe he had a meeting and he didn't speak. Maybe
he just stared at each other. So maybe he was halfway.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
To think he was talking to him right there, right
in front of the press.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
I've never spoken to this man before.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Maybe, but it's so funny the way he he's it's
kind of a tell. He speaks louder and clearer when
he's lying. For instance, this was in front front of
a black church in South Carolina, Cut eleven Bee.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Like I said, I was kidding with Jim. I always
go to seven thirty masses Saint Joe's, which is a
church built Catholic church built by indentured Irish service working
for the DuPont family. It's kind of kind of those
kind of made angry. The heads of the cornerstone of
the church eighteen forty eight says built for our Catholics.
(09:06):
I never forgured remembers they're Catholics, but all came aside.
Then I'd go to ten thirty Mass and ten thirty
service with Reverend Beeman. And during the Civil rights here
when I was working hard as a young man and
a public defender, and.
Speaker 6 (09:23):
You know.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
You said it, Rev. My mother would say, you gotta
be who you say you are. You gotta do what
you say you're gonna do. Just get up, Just get up.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
So he went to church every Sunday, to Black church
while he was an activist in the Civil rights movement.
This is a lot, he tells over and over again.
This was him at the NAACP Freedom Fund dinner, Cut
twenty two.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
My name Joe Biden, and I'm a lifetime member the NUBLEACP.
Bright the fact this organization I ever joined was the NAACP.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
Didn't get to vote to.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Your twenty one in those days. But I got involved
in civil rights when I was fifteen.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Got involved when he was fifteen. He was an activist.
Right here he is telling more house graduates. Again, worked
for the civil rights twenty two A.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
I left the fancy law firm I just joined, decided
to become a public defender and then a county councilor,
working to change our state's politics to embrace the cause
of civil rights in Philly.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
He stopped at a jazz club again claimed he was
deeply involved in the civil rights movement twenty two B.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Like I said in nineteen sixty nine, I got involved
deeply in the civil rights movement in nineteenth. Those of
you who Pennsylvanias know that Delaware used to be a
slave state in the southern state and attitudes. I mean,
for real, we have the eighth largest black populations the
percent of population in any state in the nation. And
(11:00):
one of the things that that amazed me was how
a community stepped up when you gave it a shot.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Now here's the thing. When he first ran for president,
in nineteen eighty seven he had to stop his campaign.
Why because he was caught in lie after lie after lie,
one of which was that he was a civil rights activist.
He was never a civil rights activist. Everything you just
heard and the past three or four cuts was a lie,
(11:29):
which he admitted when he had to drop out of
the presidential race in nineteen eighty seven. That's cut twenty
two c.
Speaker 6 (11:35):
During the sixties, I was, in fact very concerned about
the civil rights movement. I was not an activist. I
worked at an all black swimming pool in the east
side of Wilmington, Delaware. I was involved. I was involved
in what they were thinking, what they were feeling. I
was involved, But I was not out marching. I was
(11:56):
not down in Selma, I was not anywhere else. I
was a bourbonite kid who got a dose of exposure
to what was happening to black Americas that I'm my
own city come up.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
So that's oh, that's absolutely the same thing. Working at
a swimming pool being a civil rights activist, same thing, right,
I mean, sure, this is this is what he does.
You can hear him pretty clearly when he lies. But
perhaps the scariest of the bidenisms are when the commander
in chief, the leader of the free world, is publicly confused,
(12:30):
as he was here in North Carolina. Cut number one.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Appreciate very much. I also wanted to mention Commerce Deborah Ross.
Where's Deborah this year? I just had my picture taken
with him. That's probably why she left. Now, Oh, kids,
anyway you can oh, she couldn't be here. Actually that's
not true. I got mixed up, and she has. You know,
she fights very hard for the People's District and she's
(12:57):
up in Washington right now.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
So you didn't So he didn't you picture tab no no,
this one here he is in New Orleans. He's not
quite sure what year it is. Cut four A.
Speaker 3 (13:07):
We're mobilizing the whole country effort to cut American cancer
dess and half by twenty twenty twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Mm hmm, it's it's he said that this year. That
was this year, twenty twenty four, not twenty twenty. Here
he is. He is doing an interview with Andrea Laffel
Sanders on a Philadelphia radios. Uh see if you can
pick out the confusion here. Cut twenty six A.
Speaker 7 (13:30):
By the way, I'm proud to be as I said,
the first vice president, first black woman served with the
black president. Proud of all of the first black woman
in the Supreme Court. There says so much that we
can do because together week there's nothing.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Look, it's United States.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Did you say it was a black woman?
Speaker 1 (13:50):
He said, it's the first black woman to serve with
a black presidents.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
For him, Yeah, sure, there you go. It could be
anything you want. I know it's good for you.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Here he is in Delaware. Reporter asked, you still think
see Trump is a threat to democracy. You can hear
his response, cut one ton democracy. I'm going to see
him on one of w wait to answer the question.
I want to see him on Wednesday. I do not
know what that has to do with the question. But
(14:18):
this person, this one, this is the one here that
just made me afraid. This is President Biden. He's outside
Air Force one and he's asked to comment on on
missile strikes in Yemen. Okay, and this is his response,
cut nineteen A any comment on the strikes in Yemen?
(14:39):
Mister President.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Sides got seven strikes? What did you like? The party different?
I think they'll seven strikes.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
They're going to settle the strike in Yemen. Yeah, were
they on strike in Yemen?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
No, I didn't know that they were.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
They were teacher. They've been struck by missile. So that's
the commander in chief responding.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Talk about the strikes in Yemen.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
Yeah, well I went bowling once and I got a
couple of strikes.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Very very scary. It's very very scary. So, and of
all the bidenisms, I think the moments when he forgets
himself is one which I think probably did a lot
to help Kamala Harris lose the election. I think it's
one of those moments. It was a deplorable moment. The
(15:32):
White House, the Democratic Party, Kamala all used to hold
their collective breasths every time he spoke. And I understand
why because there's one comment that he made that really
I think, uh, well, there's two comments. There's there's two.
(15:55):
Here's the I'm gonna do. Here's one comment. He was
he was in conquered New Hampshire and he made this
comment that was not a teleprompter and it caused people
a great deal of pause.
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Cut to a I mean, so I know this sounds bizarre.
It sounds like I said this five years ago. You'd
locked me up. We gotta lock him up politically, docum up,
lock him out, that's what we'd have to do.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Yeah, he's talking about it, Donald Trump. He's talking about
locking up his political opponent. That that gave Donald Trump
a great deal of credibility in the election because they're
people like, oh my god, he's doing exactly. He's saying
exactly what Donald Trump said he wants to do and
which gave Donald Trump momentum. And then he made this statement.
(16:46):
This is on a zoom call with Voto Latino dot
org Cut one hundred or.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Puerto Rico where I'm in my home state of Delaware.
They're good, decent, honorable people. The only garbage icee float
down there is just supporters. Is his demonization seems unconscionable
and it's not American.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
He called Trump supporters garbage. He let people know about
what he thinks about half of America and actually more
than half of the voting Americans, because since more than
half voted to put Trump back into office, he called
them garbage.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Engratulations, you have arisen from deplorable to garbage.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Yeah, so wow, that's basically I don't think that that
that the Harris campaign, ever, recovered from either of those situations.
I think the Harris campaign had a lot of issues,
which is why she lost so big, but neither of
those moments helped her at all.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
There is I don't want, I don't want to help
perhaps someone down the road that I don't want to
get elected. But I'm going to throw this out there.
There is the those who do not learn from history
are doomed to repeat it. Listen, if if history has
taught us anything recent history, you don't call someone's supporters deplorable,
you don't call them garbage. Next time around, when somebody
(18:01):
is running a campaign and they feel like picking on
their opponent's supporters by calling them nasty names, you probably
shouldn't do it, because is he what happens?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Well, you know, the interesting thing is, I think if
you are rational, reasonable, and have all your faculties, that's
exactly right, you don't. But this is an example of
him not having those because in fact, of course you
learned that when Hillary Clinton did it. He knew that,
yet he did it anyway. So either we have one
of two situations here. Either he didn't want Kamala to
(18:33):
win and was trying his best a submarine r which
there is a theory, you know, a theory out there
that that is in fact true, and I wouldn't be
surprised given the way that she ousted him off of
the ticket. Or he's not cerebrating on all, and the
lessons of the past are not are lost on him
because he doesn't remember them. He just can't he can't
celebrate them. So either way, this is bad news. But
(18:58):
I'm just going to say put it right up there,
because you know, we will only be able to have
a very few more bidenisms in our podcast. We're gonna
miss you, Joe.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
You won't have Joe Biden to kick around.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
We're going to miss you very much because he does
provide a great deal of levity and has in the
past year accident lety. But yeah, exactly right. But it's
it makes me smile every week. So what can I say.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
I'm I'm very sorry, God speed Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Exactly.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
By the way, we we've always pointed out on the show,
you know, we we don't hate anybody, and we always
felt like, you know, he probably shouldn't have been put
in the position he was in because he was a
very old man with a lot of issues, Bob.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
I think there's some elder abuse gone on there.
Speaker 5 (19:39):
Well maybe something weird for such for sure, but yeah,
so so so really, God God speed Joe Biden. Every
once in a while, if you give a speech just
so we can make fun of it, that'd be great.
I mean, you know, if you got time. I don't
know what you're doing for fun.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
I thought maybe we would leave this week with a
hot mic moment. There are there's a couple of hot
mic moments this year. This is my personal favorite. It's
a Normandy. He's at the Normandy D Day. Very solid,
solemn place, solemn, solemn moment. There's ceremonies going on, it's
(20:15):
a big deal at the heads of state of every
European country are there, including our president. And this is
President Biden on the hot mic cut one ft because
I got to be the first to leave. If you
(20:35):
had trouble hearing it, he's telling me he's got to
get out of there first. He's the first one to leave. Wow,
you know, could you could you really you couldn't.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
You couldn't just not do that in this particular But no, no,
you hear of all the troops on D Day that
stormed the beach, Joe Biden wore to storm off the beach.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
I gotta get off the beach.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Got off. Now I gotta be the first to leave.
Nice thank you, Nice moment.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
To avoid traffic.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Nice moment on the global age. Thank you, sir. We
appreciate that it made us all proud.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
And again, I know this this ship is sale. But
I've said it before, I'll say it again. If you're
in any position where you will ever be, you could
be in the media, you could be a politician. Where
you're going to be around a microphone, always assume it's
on and shut your yappa.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Don't say something. Let's have something, unless, of course you're
too old to care, which I think is what really
goes happening or whatever. Well, if you if you think
we've been hard on Joe, you can tell Ben and I.
