Joe Biden has 99 problems and geography is one. When he’s in Iowa he thinks it’s Ohio, which he believes is in Michigan. He’s not sure if Vermont is New Hampshire or Iowa and all the major cities in Texas confuse the hell out of him. Now the elderly democratic party front runner can’t tell the difference between Iran and Iraq. Confusing U.S. cities and states is bad for a guy trying to win a primary, but mixing up Iraq and Iran much worse for a guy who wants to be the President of the United States.
Biden gave a major policy speech in New York on Tuesday that was supposed to establish him as presidential. Unfortunately for Biden he is Joe Biden so the speech only showed that his mind is completely gone.
The stated purpose of this speech was to slam President Trump for taking out Iranian terror general Qasem Soleimani. Biden started out by blaming President Trump for Iranian hostilities by pulling the U.S. out of Obama’s crappy Iran nuclear deal:
“The seeds of danger were planted by Donald Trump himself on May 8, 2019 — the day he tore up the Iran Nuclear Deal, against the advice of his own top master security adviser. He turned his back on our closest European allies and decided that it was important to destroy any progress that the Obama-Biden administration did,” said Biden. “All that has materialized is an utterly predictable cycle of escalating conflict.”
Biden admitted that Iran is the biggest sponsor of terrorism in the world but said, “There is a smart way and a self-defeating way to counter Iran.”
Please note that Biden is aware that a country called “Iran” exists. This will be import very soon.
According to Biden, the “smart” way to keep Iran from committing acts of terror and hostility against the United States is to send them pallets of cash and look the other way as they develop nuclear weapons, which is exactly as dumb as it sounds.
Biden went even dumber by suggesting that taking out Soleimani, who was planning massive attacks against American forces, made our troops less safe.
“You know, our forces in Iraq and Syria are now focused on protecting themselves,” said Biden.
Please note that Biden is aware that a country called “Iraq” exists. This will be import very soon.
Also, was there ever a time when our forces, in a combat zone, were not focused on protecting themselves? It’s his opinion that before Trump ordered the strike on Soleimani, that U.S. forces were care-free like they were away at camp and now they have to watch out for bad guys.
Biden further proved his smarts by flubbing the name of a country, not once but twice.
“The Iran parliament, the Iran parliament voted to eject all Americans and coalition forces from the country,” claimed Biden.
Well no, that would be the Iraq parliament that did that. I’m almost certain that there are no American or coalition forces in Iran. This man’s brain is a bowl of jello that melted in the hot sun.
“There’s a right way and a wrong way to draw down our troops, our troop presence. Getting unceremoniously kicked out is unequivocally the wrong way,” Biden added.
So getting our troops kicked out of Iran is the wrong way? What about confusing Iran with Iraq? Is that the right way for someone to demonstrate he should be in charge of our military?
“If we do end up having to leave, that would be a boon for Iran, tipping the balance of power in the region,” Biden finished.
Putting all of this together, Biden says that Iran kicking out our military would be good for Iran. That would make sense if we had troops in Iran, which we don’t.
Biden never corrected mistaking Iran and Iraq, which means he stands by his statement. The good news for him is that the liberal media will ignore this and continue to pretend Biden’s mind is strong and that he stands a legitimate chance of being the next POTUS.
The other good news for Biden is that due to his geographically-challenged blunders, he gets a new nickname: Joey Atlas!
