Joe Biden has bigger problems than just gaffes

Joe Biden, 76, has been getting heaps of attention for his verbal gaffes. Alas, voters should worry about a far bigger problem: It’s impossible to know what he stands for.

Yes, some of his slip-ups can be head-scratching. Democrats choose “truth over facts,” he said. Huh? The kids from the Parkland high school shooting — which happened after he left office — “came to see me when I was vice president.”

He lamented “the tragic events in Houston” and “Michigan” rather than El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio. He warned against giving President Trump “eight more years” and told backers to “go to Joe 30330,” instead of texting him. And that’s just recently.

Sometimes his flubs raise serious questions about what he thinks, as when he asserted that “poor kids” were as bright as “white kids,” though he quickly corrected himself (as, to his credit, he usually does).

His advisers insist it’s not his age but just “Joe being Joe.” That’s hardly consolation. Still, misspeaking isn’t the worst of sins.
