146. What's disturbing is that anyone would take that grandstanding wannabe

agitator seriously.

It's clear from her own tweets she was hoping to get into a fight with Biden.

She posted a still photo and, in this new tweet you linked to, a GIF that endlessly replays just a second or two of their encounter, where her smirk shows how happy she is that he doesn't like what she's saying.

NO AUDIO, let alone full audio and video of their encounter, which I supsect would make it clear that she was doing her best to antagonize him.

She even stupidly whines on Twitter that "for some reason" he brought up the Violence Against Women Act when she brought up the subject of assault survivors. She makes it clear she wouldn't listen to him pointing out what he's done.

The twit is either unaware that Biden was responsible for the VAWA, or she thinks it's irrelevant to a discussion of what Biden's done to help assault survivors.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Hi Mel, finger wagging saidsimplesimon Jun 2019 #16

IKR! Joe made a mistake in handling the situation, but, as long as he learns from it... InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2019 #70

How did he "handle the situation"? Other than a single still photo, which may or may not.... George II Jun 2019 #74

What situation? sheshe2 Jun 2019 #85

No he didn't....I saw the entire thing...very disingenuous. Demsrule86 Jun 2019 #104

You saw the whole thing? Could you fill us in on how it went down? cwydro Jun 2019 #109

She was going to be kicked out but he had her come down to talk after the rally...said this is not Demsrule86 Jun 2019 #167

You aren't even talking about the same woman Indygram Jun 2019 #173

I don't know about that but I saw the video and the clip shown is disengenuous. Demsrule86 Jun 2019 #182

It's not as if he shuts down the entire event if he's challenged. ehrnst Jun 2019 #181

Not surprised you turned a Biden thread into a Bernie's-oppressed thread. LanternWaste Jun 2019 #119

Indeed. (nt) ehrnst Jun 2019 #138

Your point was so obvious, it doesn't need any explanation, except to a select few. InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2019 #105

A poster downthread claims to have been there during the exchange. cwydro Jun 2019 #108

I agree. I'm a little surprise to see Joe lose his cool like that...he's usually pretty even-keeled. InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2019 #58

Joe DIDN'T lose his cool. Not at all, but............... George II Jun 2019 #73

He's not the only candidate who handle this kind of confrontation poorly. ehrnst Jun 2019 #142

Let's face it-Joe can't walk out his front door without some folks bashing him redstateblues Jun 2019 #10

Who confronted whom? nolabear Jun 2019 #13

Her behavior during the speech says nothing about how she behaved afterward. And it's clear from highplainsdem Jun 2019 #115
