looked okay but was,
in fact, a train wreck

Friday morning, Joe Biden sat down for an interview with Mika Brzezinski on MSNBC’s Morning Joe. Mika asked some hard-hitting questions about Tara Reade’s allegation that Biden sexually assaulted her in 1993.
Biden looked unusually alert and tracked fairly well for most of the interview until he got tired and confused (at the 14-minute mark). More disturbing than that, though, were the misrepresentations and elisions that made it appear as if he were answering the questions when, in fact, he wasn’t. Most surprisingly, Biden insisted that it would be better for him if nobody could see his records before the election.

And this is in what can be considered a friendly environment. Mika wasn't going to press him very hard. The questions were probably narrowed down to certain topics.
Can you imagine Uncle Joe on a debate stage with lightning quick Trump? Trump's problem would be not to humiliate the the poor guy too badly.
Uncle Joe is the BEST that the dems have to offer? Given the small stature of all the dem candidates, and the pathetic performance of the dem leaders in the last couple years, you can understand the dearth of talent that the dems face. But really, Uncle Joe?? Granted that Comrade Bernie is a sure loser but even Spartacus or the Indian brewski drinker would have been better. Dems are in this position because the party cannot be honest with its voters. They support absurd positions that will never be implemented or work because they "speak" to one group or another. They are bribing their voters with fools gold.

"Biden looked unusually alert". Now there's a real compliment about someone who wants to be president.

Count Dracula looks very alert when he emerges from his coffin at night, no doubt because he has the thought of drinking somebody's blood to put a spark in his eyes. Joe can't even achieve that much resemblance to life. We know that polls have grown steadily more dishonest since they found it necessary to constantly prop up the Kenyan but I find it hard to believe that Old Joe leads Donald Trump in even one state. The polls told us in 2016 that the Fat Lady from Chappaqua was going to be President and that only caused the damage of a big screen at DNC headquarters and the waste of a lot of champagne.

It's always interesting (read: fallacious) when Democrats purport to know what others think and remember.

I keep going back to this because it is so telling...
“ No, it is not true. I am saying unequivocally it never, never happened, and it didn’t. It never happened.”
It, it, it. He never said, “I didn’t do it.” How very Clinonesque.
What it says to me is guilty, guilty, guilty.

First, it may be a trap to search Senate records for Tara's complaint. The Sainted George Mitchell was Senate Majority Leader in 1993, and he was ruthlessly protective of his Party, although he hid that quite well. Any notes probably disappeared.
therefore, the notes Tara references, most likely disappeared. (As I too often remind you people, I was an arbitrator for 30 plus years, and I tried cases where, on occasion, Company or Union records mysteriously disappeared.)
second, I doubt, on the issue of bartending, biden told her, directly, that he wanted to have her as bartender 'because she had pretty legs.' His assistant might have offered her that information, but that is rank heresay.
Heresay is inadmissable in court for good reason.
during my professor days, I had one sexual harassment complaint filed against me. a mentally ill female student alleged that I used charm and seduction in my lectures, to 'take advantage' of female students.
Anyone who ever took a course from me knew the mentally ill woman was concocting a lie. and, fortunately, the president of my university knew me, and had observed me. The woman's complaint went nowhere.
Having had such a false charge filed against a man, though, changes him forever. It did that to me.
We can't have the rule of law by following, somewhat ironically, the Obola/Biden rules on sexual harassment.

He had too much botox. Where was the teleprompter placed ?

No doubt he was given the questions well in advance. Does Mika have a breathing issue? She had to catch her breath after every utterance.

For me, it's not strictly about the language of one's answers or whether or not they directly answer a question. In the case of Blasey Ford, she was joking about needing caffeine one moment, then turned on the shaky emotional voice in the next. But never a tear, her eyes didn't even water while describing a life altering sexual assault. Obvious liar. In the case of Biden's denial, an innocent man would be screaming from the rooftops that his and his family's reputation is being ruined. He'd demand an investigation. He would open his files. He would certainly question Reade's motives. He would attack her. He would want to confront her. Instead, he tries to appease so it will just go away. The man is certainly no leader and he's lying about this assault.

I, too, suspect that he was given the questions in advance. Especially since he came on so seemingly lucid at first. They probably even had cue cards with the answers for him (we are talking about MSNBC), but he lost focus and couldn't follow them as time went by.
Biden's wife, Jill, should be prosecuted under the law covering abuse of the elderly!

He can be occasionally "unusually alert"... Yup...that's our guy! POTUS here we come! Hillary and Nancy will be taking turns with Weekend At Biden's making his mouth work (hand up posterior) and all positions will be voted into law by Democrat Congress!!! Wow!!! Jill Biden will have POWER, though! That's awesome!!!

Why is the writer surprised that Biden knows he is toast if his records are released before the election? He knows what he did in his Senate career, and he knows what he did as VP. He is a rotten predator and he should be exposed by the media. But they are too busy still protecting him. They want Obama's third term and they do not care who or what they hurt.

I didn't know who the woman was asking the questions I never in my life watched that network.
What I observed during the denial was Joe Biden almost making the hint that 'if' he did attack Reade it was 27 years ago so let's all forget about it. He repeated the '27 years ago' almost as if was casual to walk away from the incident because time expired.
The old dreck Biden was turning red and I don't know if it was having more of an anger issue because he was being asked about the incident. Maybe he was on the verge of calling this woman, Mika, a lying dog face pony soldier or getting ready to challenge her to pushups out behind the gym. Like my grandma would say, "the man's not right in the head".

She was tossing softballs, but VP Dolt couldn't grasp what she was doing. Either his handlers are pathetic, or doofus Joe has a serious short term memory problem, aka "senile dementia."
