Yes, it was embarrassing. As soon as he said it I literally winced in pain. It was bad.

But. And of course there's a but. He even addressed later in the conference that him misspeaking should not over shadow the results he's getting. And he's getting results.

Man has stated he's had speech problems loong before he ran for president. Like, still a kid in school stuttering times. He sucks with names. That's an unfortunate fact. But why does that trump (pun intended) everything else?

Here's Biden in the 2008 debate against Sarah Palin. https://youtu.be/4Hs7CptPWI4?si=ygyXTtMIiNwfAPYa

There's no "stutter." He's nailing his talking points, stringing them together fluently. The Biden of today is unrecognizable.

At the same time, it's not like Kamala is going to beat Trump. And they won't let Bernie get the nomination.

Yeah even a senile biden is better at public speaking than Kamala.
