Joe Biden is able to make the Francis Scott Key Bridge about himself


By now, most every American knows about the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse. It's a tragedy that has apparently claimed the lives of at least six people, two whose bodies have been recovered by divers.

The incident happened just before 01:30 on Tuesday when the container ship Dali struck the bridge, located in Baltimore, Maryland. It collapsed within seconds. There were eight workers reportedly on the structure at the time it was struck, and the search for the remaining four people continues.

The catastrophe was so bad that even Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg went to see the damage and make speeches about it. So too did the Governor of Maryland, Wes Moore (D) who spoke about the heroism of the first responders. He also mentioned that the Baltimore seaport is the largest in the country and that the devastation is going to cost the nation dearly. 

Joe Biden also spoke about the incident and said that he wants the federal government to pay for the cost of rebuilding the bridge. He apparently saw that as the most important thing on his 'to do list,' instead of focusing on the people who are missing.

"It’s my intention that federal government will pay for the entire cost of reconstructing that bridge," he mumbled, "and I expect to — the Congress to support my effort."

And in typical Biden fashion, he made the situation about himself, claiming that he took the train over the bridge many, many times.

"At about 1:30, a container ship struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge, which I’ve been over many, many times commuting from the state of Delaware either on a train or by car," he said. "I’ve been to Baltimore Harbor many times. And the bridge collapsed, sending several people and vehicles into the water — into the river. "


Thankfully no trains were actually crossing the bridge at the time of the tragedy, but that would have been unlikely anyway because trains do not use the bridge--there are not tracks on the bridge. Joe lies whenever his lips are moving while the press and his cronies stand around him and applaud.
JUST IN: President Biden reveals that he took the train over the Francis Scott Key Bridge "many times" during his commute even though the bridge didn't have train tracks.

Very impressive!

Perhaps if the Francis Scott Key Bridge had tracks, trains might ride along them and chug, chug, chug along and Biden wouldn't sound like a nursing home patient on one hand, and an uncaring hack on the other.

Perhaps Biden lied about the train, like he did in the past about Amtrak and used it for his presidential runs. I'm just surprised he didn't say something like how he once saved a woman tied to the tracks by the Israelis.

Potty mouth Beto capitalizes on El Paso massacre

The mass shooting in El Peso, Texas that killed 22 and wounded 40 people was Robert Francis O'Rourke's [aka Beto] golden opportunity to show self-righteous indignation and propel him up the chart, the only direction he could go, for his candidacy in the 2020 presidential election.

Almost overnight, O'Rourke has moved up from being an also-ran far-left presidential candidate languishing in the low single digits into a loser who finds himself at the center of a national tragedy.e

With 22 people (many of them, to his benefit, were Hispanic) shot dead by a white nationalist in his hometown and his Democratic rivals all weighing in on gun control and domestic terrorism, the former Texas congressman, and Senate loser to Ted Cruz, made sure to not let a tragedy go to waste.

After a vigil on Sunday, O’Rourke, who pulled out a nose hair and choked back tears before flying back to the border town, expressed exasperation at being asked if there is anything that President Trump could do to make the situation better.

“What do you think? You know the sh*t he’s been saying. He’s been calling Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals. Like, members of the press, what the f*ck?” O’Rourke said. The misquoted clip quickly went viral because anyone who would vote for him would believe anything he says.

On Monday, he said: “The only modern Western democracy that I can think of that said anything close to this is the Third Reich, Nazi Germany," minimizing the slaughter of millions of Jews at the hand of Hitler by making such a blatantly false comparison. When everything Trump says of does is "Hitleresque," everyone with one functional brain neuron knows it's bullcrap.

O'Rourke had the opportunity to actually bring the country together--that might have earned him well-deserved support--but he did what the left has been doing a lot more than the right [who are not totally innocent either] and that is divide the country, continue with the tribe mentality and basically continue the approach of Barack Obama.

Beto isn't a loser because people prefer the other candidate as much as they deplore his disingenuous shenanigans. He isn't even really Beto. He's really kind of a flailing-armed dufus in a blue shirt using swear words to sound edgy and real.

“Beto is looking better and better as a candidate. His honest expression of frustration. His clear eyed analysis of what is happening. That impressed us,” MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski said on Monday.

So which expression is Mika's "honest expression"? The one where she and her husband Joe Scarborough endorsed Donald Trump in 2016 with Joe admitting he'd be glad to be Trump's running mate, or the "honest expression" she expresses now?
