1. I LOL'd when I saw this headline

And LOL'd more at Biden's answer

[highplainsdem]

10. See reply 8. This was a "comedy duo" who also interrupted Yang.

[redqueen]

15. Yeah I LOL'd at that too

I have no problem with this, honestly. It breaks up the monotony for the audience and the candidate too, gives many something to laugh at, doesn't seem mean-spirited.

Much better than protestors screaming about stuff which only serves to alienate voters from their cause, whether it's a worthwhile one or not. Imo.

2. lol we need a candidate who can give good marital advice!

you never know what standards people are going to come up with.

[robbob]

21. We need a President who can give advice on a lot of things:

[Thekaspervote]

3. He would be a good one to ask!

[irisblue]

4. Chaos agents.

Can f off.
Go bother republicans

[highplainsdem]

11. See reply 8. Interruption was by two men who consider themselves a "comedy duo."

5. Is this real?

It's nowhere on the internet that I could see, except twitter.

6. Epstein is a reporter for Bloomberg and doesn't invent stories.

[highplainsdem]

7. Also, she tweeted this only minutes ago.

[highplainsdem]

9. See reply 8 for tweets from another reporter. It was a staged interruption.

[left-of-center2012]

12. So it's only on Twitter?

No news outlet reporting it?

[highplainsdem]

13. On Twitter, reporteed with video by journalists from Bloomberg News & ABC News.

They haven't had time to do a story on it yet. As far as I know, anyway. I just checked Twitter. The OP was posted only minutes after the first tweets.

What happens at campaign events often shows up first on Twitter in tweets from reporters.

8. Thread from ABC's Molly Nagle explaining the interruption was by a "comedy duo":

Tweets, with video, start here, full text below:

In a odd moment during @JoeBiden
’s remarks, a man stands up & asks Biden for advice on how to get his wife back who recently left him.

Biden says he will spend time with him after, but when he refuses to sit, Biden says “I’m beginning to see why you’re wife left you.”



Another interruption at @JoeBiden
’s event—this time a man stands up wearing a “Settle for Biden” t-shirt and gets immediate boos from the crowd.

Biden jokes he thought Republicans were kidding when they said they’re sending 80 surrogates, & says “Give us back your Joe shirt!”



It appears the men who interrupted Biden are a Comedy duo called “The Good Liars” and had interrupted @AndrewYang
a few days ago.

Important to note—it didn’t appear people in the room found either interaction particularly comical.

26. With all the shit going on, I'd be a little bit careful if I were them.

People are expecting crap from Trumpers, and may be a bit jumpy.

[MineralMan]

14. Oh, snap!

[CousinIT]

16. Biden is an experienced politician and campaigner....

....he won't be that easily fooled.

[NBachers]

17. Pretty good response for a mentally-declining yesterday's man. I would't have replied that well.

But, then, I'm a day-before-yesterday's man.

[yonder]

24. "good response..." -- My thought too.

I wouldn't describe myself as witless but I'm definitely not witty.

[WA-03 Democrat]

18. Looks like they forgot to bring the "funny"

The mocking Go Joe Go

When I say GO JOE GO I don’t use a vocal fry.

Sanders and the squad I am sure found it HILarious.

[Skya Rhen]

19. OP edited to include video....

[yaesu]

20. repug plant, probably from one of the many rightwing blogs or who knows. nt

[Grokenstein]

22. Attention-hungry morons

treating what may be the most serious election in modern American history as an opportunity to play the clown.

Your fifteen minutes are up, childish jackass. Go troll Don-Don with that shit and see what his goons do to you. Two incredibly unfunny things combined might actually be funny for a change!

[George II]

23. Here's a longer version, he politely said he'd talk to this guy afterward, TWICE....

....then the guy sat down.

[IronLionZion]

25. Looks staged

but I love Joe's sharp wit

[lapfog_1]

27. yeah, f the bernie bro(s)

I am so tired of this sort of political bullshit.

you don't like someone, a Democrat, fine... don't vote for him.

But don't act like an ass and try to disrupt his rally or press conference or speech.

[SunSeeker]

28. Perfect response!

[Historic NY]

29. You want Dear Abby not Joe Biden.

[Cha]

30. Thank you for this, Skya!

[NYMinute]

31. hahahahahahahaha

[Scurrilous]

32. Blarney Stoned?

The Irish cousins of former Vice President Joe Biden have called in a family favor this week to bring the Irish American politician back to his ancestral home of Mayo for a sod-turning ceremony. Biden, who has Irish roots in Ballina, Co. Mayo, and in Co. Louth, will preside over the official ground-breaking ceremony of the new Mayo Roscommon Hospice unit where one of his Irish cousins works.
