.⁦@JoeBiden⁩ was 100% right, this guy is a liar.

He lied about supporting Warren. He lied about watching MSNBC. He mainlines pure right wing poison right into his veins.

1. Nice to see a mainstream media speaking out for Biden!

[mopinko]

8. reines works for the campaign.

[Cha]

25. 'Where do you see Reines works for Biden..?

I'm not seeing it.

[HerbChestnut]

2. The linked article doesn't support the tweet.

This whole thing is getting ridiculous.

7. "He lied about supporting Warren. He lied about watching MSNBC. He mainlines pure right wing poison

right into his veins."

[HerbChestnut]

9. That's great. Where's the evidence?

[Cha]

10. I respect this poster on Biden.. she's a Warren supporter and

is not biased.

Watched the Biden exchange a few times now and think he handled it
pretty well.

I think he struck the right balance, especially since he was righteously angry at the false representation.

11. Okay, again that's great. Still doesn't support the accusations in the OP.

[Cha]

13. You just carry on protecting Merle..

16. And by "protecting Merle" you mean, asking for some evidence to support Raines assertion?

It's a fair question, since nothing in the posted article supports it. When did asking for evidence become a bad thing?

[Cha]

18. Read this and get back to me.. it's all over

the board who the liar is.. I don't buy that anyone needs "proof".. The majority can see plainly who Merle is.. it's just a few who are trying to protect him.

29. And I'm back.

I’ve now read two articles that completely fail to validate any of Raines’ claims.

Clearly, this guy doesn’t like Biden, but nothing in either story supports any other claim.

[LanternWaste]

30. No doubt, you'll support the original statements made by the questioner?

Or simply rationalize why it's not your job (again) and thus hold others to a higher standard than you hold yourself to?

3. Joe is 100% wrong with this guy:

In the video of the interaction posted on Twitter by Sunrise Thursday afternoon, Biden appears confused about Zichal's connections to the natural gas industry, protesting that the adviser "worked for us in the administration."

"No, no, I know," the Sunrise activist patiently explains as Biden grabs him by the shoulders. "But she also worked—"

"If you look at my record," Biden begins, "look at my record. Just look at my record."

20. Hi Cha, Over a year ago at a family dinner...

three generations of Dems sat around the table and I stated, "I think a Biden/Harris ticket would be a good idea". They all agreed now that I had mentioned it. I have always favored the Dem primary candidate that agreed with my personal view about what is best for most people in the country and is fair to them. This year, like most Dem voters, I want someone who will beat "-1". Two things happened this week that have made me declare who I support with confidence. When I go with my gut instinct my decision is usually positively verified. This week Harris declared she is no longer running. I still believe that America isn't really ready for a female POTUS just like they aren't ready for socialism (my parents mentioned this 4 years ago and I still agree). Biden will be able to get the respect from our allies quickly and he showed that he won't take any BS today. Also, he mentioned that Harris has a great future and could be a VP. Most of America would feel safe with him and people crave normalcy again. She would be the asset he could use to put him over the top.

I know I may get crap for this from some, but fuck it. That is my opinion.

[Cha]

21. We'll see if your "gut instinct" is right, BP..

Thank you for sharing that.. it sounds like an interesting family dinner.

[R B Garr]

27. Great post! I see where you are going with all of that

and thanks for sharing.

[Cha]

22. Folks, put simply, @JoeBiden is fired up and not gonna take the BS anymore.

23. Any assertion VP Biden said a word about the gentleman's appearance is making this something it is..
