Joe Biden 2020 campaign megathread v3 (pg 45 - mass-dropout aftermath)

[DrScholl]

Honestly, she seemed like right-wing plant when she said "burdened down by the impeachment trial". That aside, it seemed like he was just being silly more than anything else after listening to the tone of how he said it. I was expecting something different reading the tweet, but that tone made a lot of different.

What the hell?

Biden calls NH woman a “dog faced pony soldier”  

lmao love it

Honestly, intentionally or not, Joe Biden is the funniest candidate in the race no question.

The funniest candidate is Donald Trump with all of his dumb tweets and his clown show presidency. It would actually be quite funny, if it wasn't reality

[GeneralMacArthur]

Apparently "lying, dog-faced pony soldier" is from a John Wayne film.

I was talking about the democratic race.

Yeah I was really bristled up when the video started because she seemed so shy and friendly and I was like, oh god is the stress getting to him?  He's not really going to go off on this nice girl is he?

But then it was just a strange, fun moment.

I'm sure it will be taken out of context and twisted into some kind of horrible insult within two weeks though.  That's basically been the story of this entire campaign.

What the hell?

Biden calls NH woman a “dog faced pony soldier” after she asks question about his Iowa performance

The whole tone of this is weird.  Is it some sort of local NH reference?  She seems very friendly to Biden and he immediately precedes this with "it's a good question" and says it in a friendly way.

Apparently it’s from a John Wayne movie:

Former Democratic Vice President Joe Biden suggested at a rally for Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-ND) that the trade union president beat up Rep. Kevin Cramer (R-ND), saying, “show him a threshold of pain.”

“As my brother, who loves to use lines from movies, a John Wayne movie, there’s a good line in a movie, a John Wayne movie where the Indian chief turns to John Wayne and says ‘this is a lying dog-faced pony soldier,'” Biden rambled.

(Yes, it’s Daily Wire, but he’s obviously used this phrase before.)

Poor Joe Biden, is going the way of Jeb, he is gonna be another frontrunner,  who failed in primary. Sorry, Bruce, Bagel and Johnson, your candidate isnt gonna win. Coons and Markey are gonna lose too.

I remember the Fred Thompson candidacy of 2008, as well, went the way of Biden.

Bruce and Johnson doesnt post much since Biden isnt winning

[Vaccinated Russian Bear]

God dammit, take the man to a retirement home, cause this Hunter-thing has damaged his brain!


It doesn't matter it was a quote, it sounded awful, and he didn't even bother to explain it was a quote.


Are you saying it wasn't awful? Yes, it was. You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldiers! Be honest now!

[President Johnson]

Biden needs to be in the retirement home. That’s his crowd.

I’m 30. I’m 100% for Biden.

Hell, I'm 20, & I'm also 100% for Biden. Guess I'm packing my bags from my dorm to a retirement home first thing on Monday morning!

I'm 28 and 100% behind Joe Biden. If I was a US citizen, I'd go out and try organize youth support for him because he can deliver on those things young folks care about.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

IA and NH and NV are swing states, he should be doing alot better than 4th

I saw someone on Twitter say that she is a Yang supporter. Which is ironic, cuz she asked Biden how we could trust that he would win. Yang meanwhile is a gimmick who has less than 0% chance of winning.

Biden, honey what is u doing

[Dr. Arch]

Biden will not win the nomination. He's no Hillary Clinton, much less a Barack Obama.

[#TheShadowyAbyss]

Is Biden legit ok? He seems to have gone off the rails after collapsing in Iowa?

[Suburbia]

Biden is getting angrier on the campaign trail because of his poor Iowa start and Steyer and Bloomberg gaining on black voters.

[Rookie Yinzer]

That part. Just DEAD at the Biden stans on this forum who swore he was better than Hillary. In a scenario where she sits out 2016 and Biden runs and loses, she would be leading this field convincingly at this point. Biden could never.

You are describing the better timeline.

I have to wonder if Biden even wins the nomination against her and Bernie. He seemed much healthier at the time than he does now, and his DNC speech was excellent plus the Obama lovefest was still very prominent. But I think I may have been wrong at the time - in spite of the vast amount of anti-HRC sentiment in the Democrat Party in 2016, I think his awful campaign skill would have cost him the nomination that so many assumed he could take from her.

I still 'prefer' him but not by much. I can't believe how quickly this titanic image of him has been sunk with three months in the spotlight.

Biden was always going to do poorly in Iowa, but his collapse in NH is a bit alarming. I would not be surprised if some polls coming out of SC would show an erosion of his support to someone like Steyer, who has made inroad with the AA community.

His numbers would for sure drop and a win in NV out of reach. I don't think Steyer would go anywhere beyond that, even if he upsets SC (doubtful). Bloomberg is a much bigger threat to Biden going into ST and further March contests.

To be fair, Biden never really tried in NH infrastructure-wise. They believed Bernie would do quite well there from the get-go and dialed back their campaign presence there since well before IA. The Biden camp has essentially had this strategy from the get-go of "Southern blacks are our life-raft, so we can phone it in!" - which isn't a bad strategy per se, assuming you don't come in 4th or 5th in the first two contests and scare away all of your white moderate support, all the while letting a billionaire run months of uncontested ads in SC to boost his name recognition among black voters...

The calendar is brutal for Biden. Imagine if South Carolina was in any position earlier in the caldenar than 4th.

Biden is trying to pull a Clinton anno 1992. It won't work!

[OneJ]

Regardless, Biden needs a win pretty soon to have a chance to beef up his fundraising before ST. If he could win Nevada at all that'd be good for him and if he could win South Carolina by a margin that isn't underwhelming it'd be even better. From the looks of things though, I'm pretty confident he'd lose NV to Sanders and it'll be tough to stop his momentum going into ST and beyond.
