BIDEN 'ISN'T PLAYING WITH A FULL DECK'

Despite mentioning Trump's response to coronavirus every chance he gets, Joe Biden fluffed his lines as he spoke about the impact of the pandemic from a steel mill in Pennsylvania Monday. 

 

The 77-year-old seemed to be trying to tell viewers that COVID is 'the worst pandemic in 100 years', but actually told his bemused audience: 'COVID has taken this year, just since the outbreak, has taken more than 100 years… Look. Here's… The lives… It's just… I mean, think about it.' 

 

The gaffe echoes dozens of times that Biden, 77, fumbled his words during the Democrat primaries, raising fears among voters that he is not fit to take on Trump. 

 

Video of his latest error was picked up on by Eric Trump, who retweeted it along with the caption: 'This is why the Biden campaign doesn’t want him to leave his basement. 'This guy isn’t playing with a full deck and it is so irresponsible that the media covers this up.' 

 

Biden had used the rest of his speech to attack Trump's record on 'law and order', which had become central to his fight to win four more years in the White House.
