    They played a clip while I’m waiting for the press conference, and honestly?

    This one wasn’t that bad.

    He realized it almost immediately, and came up with a rebound. It wasn’t a good recovery, but it’s better than him just wandering off after it.

    If it was a normal candidate we’d laugh about this one, and there’s a lot more important things going on.

    Quick edit:

    That being said I could have sworn this was supposed to start at 6:30, I don’t know if the Putin comment has changed anything, but he’s not coming out so far.

      In isolation it’s definitely any oopsie. But it’s quite poor timing given that there’s been a lot of attention on him for this type of thing recently.

      Also I’m sure Zelenskyy couldn’t name a single person he’d be more mad to be confused with.

    Sounds about right. They should just cancel his speech, but they’ll probably just pump him full of Adderall to get through it. This is just elder abuse. Joe doesn’t realize it, poor guy just does what he’s told. That explains why he’s always saying he’ll get in trouble if he answers questions and stuff.
