9. When Joe debated Paul Ryan
Sun Dec 1, 2019, 05:50 PM
Dec 2019

Ryan said some bullshit about Libya. Instead of saying "that's a bunch of bullshit" He said "that's a bunch of malarkey"

Everyone at the time thought it was cool. Apparently some twitterheads are making fun of it and saying it's old-fashioned like Joe.
I noticed looking at this again, Joe stuttered a little.

And the take down wasn't nasty or vindictive. Simply the facts, m'am. Simply the facts.

The truly creepy part? Put Ryan's comments in context of today's toadyism of everything Trump--national security, pushing back on Russia and Syria, looking weak in the world. All that lip service has been thrown to the wind for the sake of Donald Trump. They're not even trying anymore, just embracing the corruption and malfeasance in broad daylight.

Incredible!

Biden did a very good job here. No Malarkey.

This is a great greet and meet strategy, something Joe Biden is very adept at. Suspect he borrowed the idea from John McCain's Straight Talk Express but with his own twist. The 'No Malarkey' theme conjures up Biden's debate with Paul Ryan, another use of the malarkey line, something Biden used to great effect. He took down Ryan with a smile and a bucketload of facts.

For those who want to ridicule the effort? I guarantee the line was road tested in advance.

Joe Biden knows his peeps!

cherished by most Democrats. The GOP Wonder Boy was utterly exposed as the empty suit he always was. And Biden eviscerated him with a wink and a smile. Glorious!
