In the recent weeks, 2020 hopeful and frontrunner Joe Biden has recieved an onslaught of negative press due to multiple blunders. Some of these blunders include conflating poverty with race, mistaking the names of world leaders, and forgetting the years in which he served as America’s vice president. The ongoing gaffes have not only caused Democrats to cringe, but voters are also questioning if Biden can really go up against President Trump.
Matters worsened for Biden on Friday when he traveled to speak in New Hampshire. In addition to making a series of new gaffes and a potential Freudian slip, the former vice president asked voters to “imagine” if Obama were assassinated in 2008.
The “Assassination” Remark and New Biden Blunders
When Biden spoke in New Hampshire, he talked about his political heroes, past events, and healthcare. During the frontrunner’s remarks on his heroes, he noted his admiration for Robert F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Now, in order to presumably communicate the grief he felt upon the assassination of Kennedy and King, Biden requested the audience to “imagine” what would happen to America if someone had assassinated Obama in 2008.
