BIDEN INVOKES POSSIBILITY OF ‘ARMAGEDDON’ IN DEMOCRATIC FUNDRAISER SPEECH
EMILY COMPAGNO: To your point about the freestyling, we rely on our commander-in-chief and the President of the United States to be diplomatic, meaning relying on his cadre of diplomats to do that behind-the-scenes negotiation for him. And also, wouldn't that be more appropriate for the State of the Union address, for something coming out of the Oval Office - somewhere big, If he is really going to invoke Armageddon rather than a Democratic elected official fundraiser at a private home? And once again, the White House and his team has to clean up. They have to walk back. In fact, CNN reporting that a senior defense official expressed surprise, saying we haven't had signs actually of any escalation whatsoever. So not only did he sort of put another one in the lane of his minor incursion gaffe and that this guy cannot remain in power gaffe. But now he actually invoked Armageddon, which is horrifying. And again, the American people are left to be surprised, afraid, and then, oh, wait, he didn't mean it per the White House.
