I hope Biden fans don't feel body-shamed. Are your kids athletic? You'd better be "an impressive family" if you want a chance at being the place Joe stops by next. Ease up on that take-out food, for now. Get your kids in shape. Then maybe Joe will come around with a bag of Cook Out.Yesterday in North Carolina, I stopped by Eric’s house to have lunch with him and his two sons. I brought some Cook Out. They were an impressive family—Eric’s an award-winning educator and his sons are both athletic and academic all stars. We talked about the importance of… pic.twitter.com/UX9JMpWD4z

Joe Biden campaign style: He shows up, with fast-food take-out, at this one guy's house.

Wrong state. The primary is in SOUTH Carolina.
Joe’s so spontaneous! Just a regular guy.
Trump had some college football team to the whitehouse, and served them fastfood..
The media was Shocked, Horrified, and OUTRAGED!
Fried chicken? If a Republican did that, we'd never hear the end of it.
Oh, and they're black. Pic loads very late on XP.
Wait, no watermelon?
“Eric had a lot of student debt forgiven, and he told me what a big deal it was for him and his boys. I go to work for families like Eric’s every day—hardworking folks who want to leave something behind for their kids. I loved the time I spent with them.”
Biden “go[ing] to work for families” is him going to the treasury - full of our taxpayer money - and treating it like an atm. Taking money from taxpayers to buy votes is immoral. It’s also immoral to teach your children that they are not responsible for their contracts.
Well, if the kids in the family are indeed academic All Stars then more power to 'em. Because without that small bit of worthiness (hopefully genuine, not Grade Inflated) what we have is Joe Biden turning up at the home of a black family with fried chicken to talk about how they really are the best athletes. And to tip his cap to the last stalwart base of his support...educators.
So fast food for an "impressive black family." Got it.
So based on the next post, Biden is trying to kill them

People won't come to a Joe Biden rally, so he has to go to their homes.
Athletic is key. Don't want the old man to challenge them to a push up contest when he gets his dander up.
I hope Biden fans don't feel body-shamed.
Biden has fans? I mean, I know tens of millions will vote for him to keep He Who Must Not Be Named out of the White House, but fans...?
Imagi e the oitrage if Trump brought fried chicken to a black guy's house.
Biden: Hey folks! If you don’t like the chicken I brought, you ain’t black!
Cheapskate. Trump bought take-out for an entire college football team.
What’s Eric’s view about people saving white rats? That would be interesting table talk.
Talking about 'generational wealth', I wonder if the topic of school choice came up? That's probably the second best way to combat generational poverty. (the best being two-parent families).
From the article...
"...his sons are both athletic and academic all stars..."
What are the criteria for both?
Both of my brothers are engineers and were starters on high school sports teams. One was a National Merit Finalist. The other was a semi-Finalist and went on to play college ball.
"Cook-out" is what you say when you can't remember the words "carry-out" or "take-out".
‘…and then I says, I says “CornPop! Drop the razor!”’
This is effective. It's propaganda, but it's effective propaganda.
"Hi, ga6. I'm Joe Biden and I just gave some the tax money you sent to the government to Eric and his family because they are black, vote Democrat, and should not have to pay their bills. No ga6, it does not matter if you used a pay as you go plan to get two degrees, I makes no sense that your two children did the same and had no debt...sucker...
Cookout is hamburgers, not fried chicken. Dirt cheap too. Otherwise, carry on.
Cook-Out is a regional chain.
Before reading any comments my reaction was to (literally) exclaim, “He brought fried chicken to a black family?” To which Mrs. MJB said “Looks like it,” when she saw my phone. One of Althouse’s tags there is “microaggressions” so it is likely everyone who saw the photo reacted similarly.
Of course it leads directly to “can you imagine what the Media would do if Trump pulled this lame stunt?”
Is microaggressions the theme for today?
Just studying the expression and body posture of Dad while Joe lectures them....
"Eric had a lot of student loan debt forgiven..."
By the God-Emperor Biden. Who needs no stinking Congress and can ignore Supreme Court mandates to pass broad, sweeping, expensive legisla -- er, "executive actions" that screw with my taxpayer money.
They are REALLY worried all the black people are not going to show this time. OTMOF…
Cook Out, like Chick-fil-A before it, does have some Christian vibes. The store is less religious than the chicken chain in that it's open on Sundays, but more religious in that some sit-down locations play Christian rock and some drink cups have Bible verses printed on them.
I will assume Joe did not know this, as even a hint of Christianity is anathema in his circle.
Yeah, Joe was just in the neighborhood and spontaneously decided to drop in on a complete stranger with some take out.
Gosh, biden is "just plain folks". What a nice man. Showing up and having some "take out". Bleh!
Trump delivered Pizzas in Iowa and this is Joe's counter-punch.
Isn't it weird that Biden shows up at a Black families home in NC? Not really. NC is now a swing state, and the black vote is crucial for the Democrats. If enough blacks turn out in November, Biden could win NC and the Presidency.
OTOH, Biden doesn't give a rip about "Just plain folks" in states he doesn't think are important in 2024. Michagan (UAW strike), Hawaii (Maui fire), East Palestine Ohio (chemical spill), and Winsconsin (Christmas Massacre), all got stiffed by "Good ol'Joe" because the states are either in his pocket or out of his reach, or because the people involved were "icky" in his mind.
Its funny how personal image is so important in politics. "Good ol Joe" Biden is probably the most elite, arrogant, out-of-touch politician since Nixon/LBJ. Yet, no matter what he does or says he's "Good ol' Joe".
I think due to the interent/media coverage, people if they PAY ATTENTION probably have a better grasp then ever about what our Pols are really like. Its not the old days where large numbers of people were denied basic information and didn't know FDR was a crippled man in wheelchair, or thought Eisenhower was "The sunny man from Kansas" or "The bumbling old General with tangled up sentences".
Watermelon is out of season. Fuzzy Zoeller couldn't be reached for comment.
Dave Chapelle Black people and Chicken!
"Birches said...
Cookout is hamburgers, not fried chicken. Dirt cheap too. Otherwise, carry on."
They sell chicken too.
>You'd better be "an impressive family" if you want a chance at being the place Joe stops by next.<
Joe - my family is unimpressive. Very unimpressive! Please remember that.
"There's always something cooking at Old Joe's Place"
I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that Joe commented on the size of someone's biceps during this photo-op.
The Cook-Out menu price revealed in the background of Biden's photo op this week was shown to be 28% higher than three years ago. Corporate greed?
North Carolina? Did Joe get lost on his way to the SC primary?
What kind of "educator"?
Is he a teacher? If so, what subject? I'm guessing phys Ed. Not because most black guys are phys Ed but because Brandon & Co would pick a black phys Ed teacher rather than a black math teacher. (I have nothing against phys Ed teachers)
If not a teacher, what? Principal? Coach? Guidance counselor? Custodian?

Life as a politician: one gratuitous gesture after another. My daughter has a job (making less than a teacher) and is paying her student loans. Screw you, Mr. Biden.
"You'd better be "an impressive family" if you want a chance at being the place Joe stops by next."
Bullshit. He'd pander to any Negro in North Carolina. That's what he's got Kamala hung around his scrawny neck. That's why we have a woman who doesn't know what a woman is on the Supreme Court.
@tommyesq. Thank you for filling in on the Christian values at Cook Out. I was sure that there would be no Chick-Fil-A because of same. Happy to see Biden's staff work continues to be abysmal.
Trump brings pizza.
Trump 1 Biden 0.
And what the hell is with 'Folks.'
Is Biden from Oklahoma or some other Southern/Midwestern region?
It's like when West Coast blacks keep saying 'Y'all.'
You're from fucking Oakland, not Biloxi.
Compare Biden kids versus trump kids?
Think about it and you have no reason to support biden
Your perception of the economy used to influence your political leanings. Nowadays, Americans' political leanings determine how they perceive the economy.
by the way.. Cook Out is REALLY GOOD one of the best things about Nor Car
Thank God Biden didn't tell his "cornpop" story. Or ask the father to "Step outside"
Did white left crook family man Joe discuss all the International Grift you get if you can manage to become Vice President of the United States?
It is absolutely stunning to me that this disgusting corrupt old fool “represents” the USA.
Would it be correct to say Brandon is acting Hitlerian by forgiving student loans with no legal/constitutional /judicial or a y other authority to do so?
Factually correct to call him Hitler, that is.
It is definitely not politically correct.

I found the answer to my question. As I suspected, not actually a teacher. I have no idea what, if anything, a "Senior director leadership coach" is or does. I'd be willing to bet it pays well, though:
Biden was actually getting food to go down the street to meet with local educator, Eric Fitts.
“This has been an amazing experience,” said Fitts.
Fitts is the Senior Director Leadership Coach with Wake County Public School System.

I'm imagining these people had to sign some sort of NDA. But ooooohhhhh I'd love to hear what it's like to try to talk 1 on 1 with Joe Biden these days.
This is a better article sounds like he might be a pretty good guy. Maybe we need more of him.
Mr Fitt, my apologies for initially doubting you
I don't know what a magnet school of engineering is but I do like the sound of it.
If anyone deserves to have student loans forgiven, it is someone like him
He has put the education to very good use.

Eric Fitts, Principal of Brentwood Magnet Elementary School of Engineering, as the 2015 Wake County Public School System Principal of the Year.

During his last two years as Brentwood principal, Fitts and his team increased math scores by 17.8 percentage points and reading scores by 8.4 percentage points.
The school was recognized as a Magnet School of Excellence (highest designation) by the Magnet Schools of America earlier this year, and received the organization’s Donald Waldrip Award, the second highest honor given to any magnet school in the nation

It may not be breaking news that former president Donald Trump isn't the healthiest of eaters either and he lies about weighing only 239 pounds. And of course, Trump's age and personality subject him to the dangers of mental degradation.
“You know, Nikki Haley, Nikki Haley, Nikki Haley,” he continued. “Nikki Haley, you know they, do you know they destroyed all of the information, all of the evidence, everything, deleted and destroyed all of it. All of it because of lots of things like Nikki Haley is in charge of security. We offered her 10,000 people, soldiers, National Guard, whatever they want. They turned it down. They don’t want to talk about that. These are very dishonest people”
None of that is true, regardless of whose name Trump inserts. . . . Nikki Haley was. . . watching . . . from afar.
The mixup wasn’t Trump’s only misremembering of the week. At a rally on Wednesday night in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Trump spun a whale of a tale while . . . bragging about how well he once did on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment — which is designed to test for signs of cognitive decline and dementia.
So the real question is whether "doing well" on a dementia test indicates passing or failing the test. But there is no answer because Trump's physician, Ronny Jackson supposedly administered and scored the test.
But no one would ever mistake Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi - nobody except Trump.
'But no one would ever mistake Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi - nobody except Trump.'
They're both evil brunettes?
As for leftcoast blacks using "Y'all," it's totally legit. Most of them are descended from Southern blacks and retain the speech patterns and vocabulary of their forebears.
REASON 1,087,000 to BURN IT ALL DOWN:
We are now discussing whether GAS STATION PIZZA or fast food chicken has some bearing on leadership.
Honestly, give me anarchy over this stupid shit.
The Republican Party should run an ad, showing what that take-out cost in 2020, and what it costs now.
"We talked about the importance of family, building intergenerational wealth..."
I'll believe democrats care about family just as soon as they advocate for policies that provide incentives for keeping them together. And intergenerational wealth? I thought that was bad, maybe that's only for white people?
Nowadays, Americans' political leanings determine how they perceive the economy.
No. My grocery bill does.
"The problem with eating out in America today is that it’s making us fat."
So there you are, just an average upper middle class black family. Watching TV, mom in the kitchen getting ready to start dinner, kids finishing their home work, and dad reading the paper with in the lazy-boy while trying to light his pipe. Suddenly there is a knock at the door! Who could it be at this hour? Dad got to find out and low is the President! Popping in for a shared supper! So unexpected! What a lucky "random" family that the President randomly picked to drop in on a random night [totally unexpectedly] for a family meal! Only in America!
One has to wonder how many families the Biden PR machine searched through until they found THIS family. How many had no background issues, no priors, no "wrong" affiliations, had the correct politics, were photogenic "enough", and agreed to the available date/time.
Would LOVE to hear the tape of the briefing they got before this circus began!
The list of do(s) and don't(s). The confidentiality agreements. The warnings about everything. The list of "ignore if Uncle Joe does...". I wonder of the family selection committee that was in charge of this stunt filtered out any families with young girls in them. Need to clamp down on the hair sniffing and groping you know, bad optics.
"Cook Out"? Middle class Joe doesn't know the difference between "Take Out" and "Cook Out". "Cook Out" is what one does in one's backyard grill.
