Joe Biden just went full Corn Pop on a CBS reporter on Tuesday after being asked about his decision to attack Bernie Sanders, despite clearing the air over a dispute on Social Security the day before.
The former Vice President and 2020 candidate was leaving a campaign event in Mason City, Iowa on Wednesday, ignoring several questions by CBS‘s Ed O’Keefe about the ongoing beef - then spinning around and approaching the stunned reporter while jabbering: “Why, why, why, why, why, why, why! You’re getting nervous, man. Calm down! It’s OK!” as he poked him in the chest.
“He apologized for saying that I was corrupt,” answered Biden, adding “He didn’t mention anything about whether or not I was telling the truth about Social Security.”

As we noted over the weekend, Biden and Sanders have been in an ongoing dispute over the former Vice President’s record on Social Security.
Sanders and his campaign have repeatedly mentioned Biden’s ‘40 years trying to cut Social Security‘ - however they mischaracterized a 2018 Biden speech in which they claim he “lauded” former GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan’s efforts to cut Social Security. Biden stated later in the same speech that America needs a progressive tax code that “raises enough revenue to make sure that the Social Security and Medicare can stay - still needs adjustments, but can stay.
On Tuesday, Biden accepted an apology from Sanders, only to hit back at Bernie in Wednesday comments.
“I find it amazing that we go back and look at statements and many of them, most of them [are] taken out of context of 10, 30, 35 years ago,” Biden told MSNBC‘s “Morning Joe.”
“It’s like me going back and pointing out how Bernie voted against the Brady Bill five times while I was trying to get it passed when he was in the House, or how he voted to protect gun manufacturers,” Biden continued. “He’s made up for that, he’s indicated that was [the] past.”
Joe Biden says that Sen. Sanders' attacks on his Social Security record are out of context, and @WillieGeist asks Biden if he will cut Social Security benefits if he becomes president?

Excuse me, can We taxpayers have our money back? Going on tour so that people can have a “pilgrimage” to?
Please, the only tour that should be done here is for the American taxpayers to take a tour to GITMO to look at both these criminals. What they have done to this Great Nation, the divide they CONTINUE to push in this Great Nation. And what they did to the incoming First Family is disgusting and OUR First Family is still dealing with this, especially President Trump.
Don’t care about the Democrats “Camelot”. Having enough of their “Hamilton” dinner theater they created using Schiff/Nadler. Could care less about these two, as all they thought they were were King and Queen of the World, NOT President and First Lady of the Great USA.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP! GOD HELP THE USA!
Biden is losing it, if he ever had it in the first place.
Neither he nor his son will appear even if required to. they would have slaughtered
get slaughtered
