This was awkward.
Joe Biden emerged from his basement on Wednesday and traveled to Charlotte, North Carolina for his Black Economic Summit.
There was no enthusiasm for old Joe even though his campaign dragged out NBA player Chris Paul.

Biden actually stopped halfway through his stump speech and asked the reporters if he should shut up and stop rambling.
“There’s an outfit…uh am I telling you too much? You want me to stop? Ok…” Biden said. “This really drives me crazy.”
Biden rambled about Covid and slammed Trump for not trampling on state’s rights.

Here’s the scene outside of the venue as Biden departed….
No miles-long line of supporters cheering him on.
Tumbleweeds.

Per pooler @DanielStrauss4, Biden is proposing “$70 billion” for HBCUs and would see to it that any family that makes “less than $125,000 a year” gets free college education. Biden added “if they get in they pay nothing to go to college.” pic.twitter.com/WUMSCsOihp
