Former vice president Joe Biden’s campaign has been preparing for some time for the inevitable gaffes that their candidate is so famous for to crop up.
It took all of one Democratic debate for a particularly hilarious one to crop up.
As the second half of Thursday’s debate began, all 10 candidates on stage were asked what would be the first major issue they would tackle from the Oval Office should they win the presidency.
When Biden stepped up to the mic, he chose to praise his former running mate, Barack Obama.
“I think you so underestimated what Barack Obama did,” Biden said to nobody in particular. “He’s the first man to bring together the entire world, 196 countries to commit to the deal with climate change. Immediately.”
He then pivoted to his very first declared act AS PRESIDENT:
“The first thing I would do is make sure that we defeat Donald Trump. Period,” he announced.
But … But, if you’re in the Oval Office, that means you’ve already defeated Trump, no?
While the first debate for the other 256 or so Democrat candidates saw little mention of Trump, Biden couldn’t really take his focus off of the Republican President.
In praising Obama – who has thus far refused to endorse his best friend – for his actions on tackling immigration, Biden referred to Trump as ‘immoral.’
“President Obama, I think, did a heckuva job [on immigration],” Biden suggested. “To compare him to what this guy’s doing [Trump] is absolutely … immoral. We should not be locking people up.”
He also asserted that the President has ‘ripped out‘ the soul of this nation.
“I’m ready to lead this country because I think it’s important to restore the soul of this nation,” jabbed Biden. “This president has ripped it out. It’s the only president in our history who has equated racism and white supremacists with ordinary and decent people.”
The comment is a clear reference to a media-concocted hoax that Trump called neo-Nazis in Charlottesville fine people.
Biden added, “He’s [Trump] the only president who has in fact engaged and embraced in dictators and thumbed their nose at our allies.”
Joe – Did you forget that your muse Obama sent pallets of cash to Iran in an effort to give them nuclear capabilities, opened negotiations with the Castro regime in Cuba, and did everything he could to undermine Israel, even interfering in their elections?
We seriously doubt this is they guy who can defeat Trump – before or after the election.

poor sleepy Joe..time to go.
When will the Political Insider stop with the " This is bad" ridiculousness , this is hilarious not bad.
Biden and Obama over 8 years completely destroyed this country , they made it popular to attack America and celebrated it .
They nearly bankrupted the country wiped out any chance of people finding job's and destroyed race relations .
You would have to be completely insane to want a guy who was a big part of that downfall .
The below is the unaltered by the media facts about Obama/Biden over 8 years .
Yeah, let's open those borders. Let's see how many diseases we can allow in to kill our babies. Hey Dems, of course all the rich politicians who have sucked the life out of America, to pad their own lives and the ones who are the same political persuasion, will be protected, because they really don't have to walk the streets that are filled with homeless people who fill the streets with garbage and feces. They live in their guard protected sanctuary, and hire maids to care for their children while they make rules the lower class has to live by. The middle class that worked, fed, and raised their children by the sweat of their brow, not by handing them an allowance, a new car, and buying them a document that proves they went a school.
The great democrat boat has sailed and is sure to be another Titanic. I am sure not one of them brought life jackets for the election. Oh wait, its bought and paid for just like the election of 2016 when Killary was a sure bet. The democrats have been getting more voters across from the south and I am sure they have a few more voters that they dug up from some where.
The whole Dem party is brain dead and lie with every breath they breath. They have a brain eating bug. The possibility of a Dem being President of our country ever again makes me shudder in disbelief.
Biden was on the Titanic. The ship has sailed! Now, the sharks smell blood in the water!
Biden: the great dumb hope
Obama thought the African Union dictators were democratically voted in. https://youtu.be/dXORnZyX1G0s
Can you imagine what he pictures in his perverted mind when he's sniffing women's hair or has a 10 year old girl's arm pulled into his crotch and holds her there? I would love to see the expression on his face if the next time he does that to a woman she turns around and slaps the taste out of his pervy mouth or a child's father knocks a few teeth out of his mouth or breaks his nose. Think he would get the message then?
Remember when Biden said he'd take Trump "behind the shed"? I think ol' creepy Joe wants to physically beat Trump as the first thing he would do.
