The woman was from Mexico, still lives there, and never set foot in the US. Her kidnapping and rape was from 2002 - 2006 and took place in Mexico City.

    “We know that President Biden didn’t just create this border crisis,” she said. “He invited it.”

    This from the party that’s explicitly invited a border crisis. Although, that’s not actually inconsistent since the only reason they want it is so they can try to blame it on Biden.

    I would have more respect for them if instead of this they just got drunk and yelled “oh no, Biden shit my pants again!” Not only would it be more dignified, it would actually be more plausible.

      You didn’t miss much, but her weird seesawing emotions reminded me of the terrible principle in pink from Harry Potter. She gives off really odd vibes.

    The New York Times printed a story about rapes and beheadings. It was highly misleading.

    All the stupider Bidens “killed by an illegal” comment was during it…

    He isn’t going to secure conservative votes, just piss off his own base.

      You make it sound like a comment was made completely unprompted. That line was yelled at him by Marg and he replied quickly, repeating what she had just said. Was definitely a mistake to respond to a MAGA heckler and directly quote their words back to them. Watch the clip.

        The Democrats told Biden that he needed to show more of the fire that was on display in a closed-door meeting with governors when Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte handed him a letter demanding more action on the southern border. Biden flashed a smile, according to two of the governors standing there.

        "State of the Union,” Biden said, teasingly.

        Do you know who Greg “bodyslams reporters” Gianforte is?

        Bexause he’s not the person Biden should be joking with and trying to win over.

          It doesn’t sound like he was trying to win him over. It sounds like he was telling him to fuck off in a typical Joe Biden fashion.
