| Rand Paul: Biden's ‘Muddled Message' is ‘Dangerous to the Country,' He Probably Shouldn't ‘Speak and Appear in Public' |
| 2022-01-21 |
| [American Greatness] Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said during an interview on Thursday that Joe Biden’s inability to express a coherent message on foreign policy has become such a national security risk, he should probably not be allowed "to speak or appear in public." Paul appeared on the Hugh Hewitt Show to discuss a wide range of topics, including Biden’s long and meandering press conference Wednesday afternoon. "You know, it’s rambling and disjointed enough that it’s really hard to get a coherent message out of it," Paul told Hewitt. The senator stressed that it is of the utmost importance for a world leader to know what and what not to say. "There are things you do to try to influence other countries," he explained. "And they are influenced by your public pronouncements. And in some ways, that’s all you have. You have the threat of military might, but you also have the influence of what you say." Biden, who appeared tired, confused, and disoriented at times throughout the presser, at one point speculated that Russia will soon invade Ukraine. He also suggested that our NATO allies are not fully united on how to handle tensions between Ukraine and Russia, and that a "minor incursion" by Russia into Ukraine’s sovereign territory would be tolerated by the West. Administration officials quickly put out statements to the media walking back Biden’s remarks, but the damage was done. Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, a ruthless exploiter of weakness, had already seen Biden’s mixed messages. "So you can’t be sending a muddled message or a message of well, it may not be too big a deal, you know, if there’s a Russian incursion," Paul told Hewitt. "So I think that it’s a mistake for him to be out in front. It’s dangerous to the country. And I think we’re stuck with him, in all likelihood, until 2024. And I think it would be good for the country for him not to speak and not to appear in public." |

| #12 I think it was more like 'Joe / Handjob 2020' |

| #11 Sounds like a campaign sticker. Joe/Headjob 2020! |

| #10 ^ I agree, but let's go with Joe Headjob. As that's what he is. |

| #9 Joe Headroom. I disagree. More, please. Why deny the voters of the United States, indeed the people of the world, the stage of the most popular, effective politician in the history of the United States, nay, the world. Defeated Trump without even campaigning, without even trying. So persuasive is he, that professionally neutral moderators were won over before even the second question. Cicero cries for what he himself never could be. Machiavelli, as outdated as the flat Earth. |

| #8 Come to think of it, Max Headroom does look a bit like a slightly younger Uncle Joe. |

| #6 The State of the Union & Groundhog Day This February 2, 2022, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address will occur on the same day. This is an ironic juxtaposition of events. One involves a meaningless ritual in which we look to an insignificant creature of little intelligence for prognostication . . . The other involves a groundhog. |

| #5 My thinking is, compared to Billy Jeff Clinton and Bath House Barry, who are both severely flawed individuals, but at least mentally competent, Bidet is not, himself, a serious threat to the future of America. His handlers and backers are, and there is pretty much no way they avoid being damaged by association with Joe. They need to be exposed and tied to Joe's legacy of pathetic mediocrity forever. |

| #4 The have knocked the legs out from under any future efforts they make to apply the 25th Amendment skeer story to a non-dem president. All anyone will have to do is make the comparison to how they found Joe to be competent. |

| #3 ^ Generally agree with you M but in this case he's destroying the country as well. Not to worry though, his handlers are trying to stuff him in the basement and provide a suitable video doppelganger. Much better than an actual meat puppet. |

| #2 Never interrupt your enemy while he's destroying himself. |

| #1 I would go with not speaking at all, I'm tired of hearing that blithering idiot. |
