Joe Biden wastes no time after Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo tell him from their desks at CNN last night that he needs to address the rioting because the Democrats are dropping in the polls.
He sent out a video today condemning the riots but included zero support for law enforcement. In fact, there wasn’t even a mention of “the good” ones on the force.
Joe Biden:
“What I saw on that video makes me sick. Once again, a black man, Jacob Blake, has been shot by the police in broad daylight, with the whole world watching.”
Two sentences in, and I already need to fact check him. Some of what he said was true – Jacob Blake was a black man, shot by the police, during the day – but what he fails to mention is that Jacob was resisting arrest.
Cops were called because Jacob Blake had a deadly weapon and was inside someone’s home that was not his. That is about as PC as I can say without being sued.
People will say that he didn’t deserve to be shot seven times in the back in front of his kids. And, I would 100% agree with them if they mean his kids didn’t deserve to see him get shot and not that he didn’t deserve to get shot period.
I am sure this whole situation is hard and traumatizing for his kids and his parents. I couldn’t imagine having to endure this pain. But let’s not forget the source of their pain and it isn’t the cops.
Their father chose to take them with him when he took a weapon into someone else’s home, prompting the police to be called.
Joe Biden calls to stop the rioting saying that “needless violence won’t heal us. We need to end the violence – and peacefully come together to demand justice.”
What do you need justice for in this scenario? The man brought his family when he “took a weapon into someone else’s home, prompting the police to be called.” The guy is a criminal who CLEARLY and VIOLENTLY resisted arrest prompting the officers to fear for their life.
It is evident in this video that Joe Biden was told to sit in the chair and read from the teleprompter. I doubt they even told him the subject before starting the tape. He is only doing this to pander to the Democrats that called CSPAN last night, saying that they would be voting for Trump because there is no way “sleepy” Joe Biden is going to keep them safe.
Joe is a dunce. Vote for Donald.

Once again, a Black man — Jacob Blake — was shot by the police. In front of his children. It makes me sick.
Is this the country we want to be?
