'Dumbest thing ever': RNC's attack on Joe Biden's signature hilariously backfires



The Republican National Committee's latest attack on President Joe Biden fell completely flat on Friday.

"Joe Biden says the length of Barack Obama's signature is shorter than his. Obama's is 3 letters longer," the RNC argued on Twitter.

Parker Malloy, who writes for The Present Age, noted a fatal flaw in the attack by the RNC's research department.

Molloy noted Obama would sign bills and executive orders "Barack Obama" (11 letters), while the current president signs his name "Joseph R. Biden, Jr." (14 letters).

Does Biden know how many letters are in his name?

Joe Biden says the length of Barack Obama’s signature is shorter than his.

Obama’s is 3 letters longer.

Do you know how many letters are in "insurrection?"

I just wish he wouldn't hold up these signed bills and executive orders like that, it's like what TFG did.

President Biden is thinking of the importance of the bill, whereas trump was just proud that he could sign his name. I mean, yeah, we all know that what trump wrote wasn't really his name, but rather just scriggles (new word just invented by me ), but it was as close as he could ever get to forming letters on paper.


Editing to add: Apparently "scriggle" really is a word, but I'm still taking credit for it because I just gave it an alternate meaning.

And Gerald Ford's was shorter. "And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does." - Groucho Marx.

I can't figure out what the magaminds at the GOP are getting at: something to do with the length of one's common name versus their formal one, or some new scheme to overthrow the Biden presidency because he goes by multiple names?

I'm surprised they haven't started up the birther nonsense with Harris yet.

7. The R's are dopes. It isn't the LENGTH of the signature ,but the number of letters.

There is not a one-to-one correspondence anyway between the number of letters in a name and length of a signature. Someone with few letters can stretch it out, and someone who has small writing can have a compact signature.
