    Joe Biden says that video games are part of the problem. “It is not healthy having these games teaching kids this dispassionate notion you can...blow their brains out,” he says. He adds, “It's not in and of itself why we have this climate."

        Like John Delaney, Joe Biden is a good Republican.

        Biden was actually saying video games are *not* the reason for mass shootings, and Cooper said Biden had rolled his eyes at Trump's suggestion, then cited Japan as example “it's not in and of itself the reason why we have this carnage on our streets" https://twitter.com/mviser/status/1158538504546279425 …

        If this is what 2020 will be like then young people ought to consider applying for refugee status because there's probably no future for them in America.

        Yeah I think it’s weird that so much is made of marginal disagreement, esp when Biden explicitly said he doesn’t think it’s the central problem. Biden is sometimes bad at soundbites, but this level of verbal scrutiny from the journalistic class is silly.

        Joe Biden is a Democrat, right? I'm genuinely unsure because every time he opens his mouth I hear Republican talking points.

        He's. Too. Old. Not in years, as much as in understanding what's happening and now.
