January 1, Biden Blasted for Tone Deaf Response to Nashville Shooting [Video]
ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
1870: 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is adopted, guaranteeing the right to vote regardless of race.
President Joe Biden was heavily criticized for his first public appearance since the tragic shooting at a Christian school in Nashville, in which he made lighthearted jokes instead of immediately addressing the tragedy that claimed the lives of six innocent Americans, including three children.
On Monday, a 28-year-old shooter attacked The Covenant School, killing three children and three adults before she was fatally shot by responding police officers. Hours later, when the leader of our country had a microphone in hand to address the nation, he joked that he only agreed to make a public appearance because he’d heard there would be ice cream.
“My name is Joe Biden. I’m Dr. Jill Biden’s husband. And I eat Jeni’s Ice Cream, chocolate chip. I came down because I heard there was chocolate chip ice cream,” Biden said in his first statement since the shooting. “By the way, I have a whole refrigerator full upstairs. You think I’m kidding, I’m not.”
After about two minutes of idle, lighthearted banter, Biden finally addressed the situation at hand. He denounced the shooting as “sick” and “heartbreaking,” and renewed his call for Congress to take action to “stop the gun violence” and ban assault weapons.
But critics were shocked and dismayed that the president didn’t take a more somber tone and address the senseless attack right off the bat.
“To say that he misunderstood the moment would be an understatement,” Chris Christie told Fox News.
“There’s no way to talk about something like this except to say that for all of us who are parents, what we dread every day is the news about the health and life of our children,” the former New Jersey governor added. “And so there’s no room to joke in that circumstance at all. And certainly not from the President of the United States.”
Fox & Friends host Brian Kilmeade also addressed Biden’s remarks, saying the president fumbled big time by choosing to first tell jokes about ice cream.
“Just absolutely ridiculous,” Kilmeade said. “I mean, if anyone should have the instincts at 80 years old of what to say, what not to say, it’s that.”

I think most likely that they couldn’t update his speech to include the shooting and he had to go on with the one he’d already learned.

he actually referred to himself as the husband of dr joe biden not dr jill biden. everyone assumes he must have meant jill since she is his wife, but his cognitive degeneration is probably even worse than people think. listen to what he says and how he says it. my diabetic mother is suffering from dementia, and the look of euphoria on his face reminds me of her when she skips a meal or overexerts herself. she also becomes totally confused about what is happening, and she is only happy for as long as she is completely confused. i wonder if he starts to get angry and defensive once he starts to get a handle on his current situation.
