Anderson Cooper and John Podesta discussing what Joe Biden should or not do. Thanks but no thanks

After Anderson Cooper let trump constantly interrupt Hillary when she talking, and only weakly telling him not to do that, they can take their advice and stuff it

Biden will do just fine

I will never forget Anderson Cooper catching himself and saying something like he couldn’t be critical about Hillary’s attributes, such as her laugh or smile, because they would be accused of being sexist

I really wanted to kick my foot in the TV when he said that, because yes it would have been sexist when you use characterizations that a woman is “too shrill”, or some other such nonsense they would never use against a man

The Biden campaign has run circles around his effort in 2016. Biden doesn’t need his advice.

...any more than I would take the tactical advice of a baseball manager who'd just blown the World Series after being up 3-0 and with a ten-run lead in the ninth inning of game four.

Do asides to the audience. “Do you believe this stuff?” “He didn’t answer the question but I will,”. Talk to the people and ignore the Orange Anus.
