I feel as if Joe Biden really appreciates the Fierce Five and perhaps even Aliya Mustafina and Viktoria Komova. And that's great.

What's the gaffe?  Saying that cheerleaders are good athletes?  That's just a true statement...

[Joe Biden 2020]

^^^^^^

If there is a gaffe, it's a very, very minor gaffe.  Personally, I don't see it.

"Stuff they do on hard wood" is presumably what BSB is talking about.

[Joe Biden 2020]

"Stuff they do on hard wood" is presumably what BSB is talking about.

I know that's a basketball reference, but cheerleaders do perform on the hard wood.  So, it's still not a gaffe, IMO.

[Grumpier Than Thou]

Obviously not a gaffe, but definitely open for some...illegal...interpretations.

You've got to think outside the prude box. I laughed.

Don't pretend you're wood didn't get hard when you first thought about it.

Now that you mention that...  Hopefully, most Americans are thinking about what he said, not what the innuendos suggest.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Wow... it's actually gotten to the point of trying to find double-entendre to pin on him...

[Spanish Moss]

I'm willing to bet behind closed doors, Biden is a "that's what she said!" person.

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

I laughed too. I don't think it actually matters, but it was funny.

[Fmr President & Senator Polnut]

Yeah, I think that's why I like him so much.

... followed by "blows my mind..."

[BigSkyBob]

I laughed too. I don't think it actually matters, but it was funny.

The point is that folks at laughing at Joe Biden, not with him.

[Politico]

Biden The Buffoon strikes back!

[J. J.]

It was a bad choice of words, but minor.

[BigSkyBob]

It was a bad choice of words, but minor.

True, but wasn't his suppose area of expertise foreign policy where the ability to speak precisely and unambiguously is suppose to be a critical skill?

Presumably not at a rally in another country's high school gym.

Shouldn't such precision be a habit?

Jill gets in on the act:

[Vosem]

Is it wrong that now I like Biden more?

[BM]

LOL Some people are so humorless. You don't have to defend and explain an unintentionally funny/stupid comment like this just because you're a Democrat.
