Biden has yet another strange moment: gets hand-weird at town hall

Some people say they smoke because it gives them something to do with their hands--perhaps President Joe Biden needs to smoke because it's for darn sure, he doesn't have a clue of what to do with his hands. He would be better off having tardive dyskinesia than his weird stance he had on the Comedy News Network's town hall with Anderson Cooper.

Sure, Biden is known for mega gaffes, but this was clearly strange and you can see exactly what I mean on the link here. 

Naturally, social media went to town on Biden's town hall and the memes came out faster than a New York minute.

It almost feels like elder abuse having allowed Biden to be president. He seems lost and in dire need of direction, which Anderson Cooper provided for him when his brain shut down and his thoughts went to his favorite Applebees. 

The most pressing problem for Biden throughout the interview, beyond his lack of knowing what he was talking about, was what to do with his hands. At times he stood stone still, his arms extended at 90-degree angles, his affect flat and he looked confused.

Some of the tweets that went out focused on his hands:

Kyle Martinsen of RNC Research compared the hand moment to Ricky Bobby, Will Ferrell’s character in the 2006’s “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.”

Martinsen also pointed out that this wasn’t the first time Biden has held his hands up awkwardly.

This apparent Ricky Bobby impersonation was far from Biden’s only strange moment Thursday.

At one point, the president claimed to have been a Senator for 370 years. The audience took this crazy claim as a joke, and perhaps it was, but hey, you never know when you're dealing with a brain addled old guy. His tone didn't suggest he was joking, but when the audience laughed, Joe followed along:

The idea that we have to wonder whether or not Biden was kidding about his length of time in the Senate speaks to how we view his mental status. In fact, during the town hall, Biden completely lost his train of thought and had to be rescued by Anderson Cooper, proving journalism is indeed dead.

“With 40 percent of all products coming into the United States of America on the West Coast go through, uh, Los Angles and, uh, and, uh, um, uh, um, what am I doing here?” Biden said.

Cooper jumped in,  “Was it Long Beach or…”

“Long Beach, thank you,” the president responded 

The wheel is spinning but the hamster's dead.
