We know that Joe Biden has a little problem of plagiarizing.
We first heard of this problem with him on the national stage in 1987 when he was running for president, but had to drop out because at that time, media would more fully report on his lying and plagiarizing. People actually found such things offensive; they didn’t excuse or ignore it, as many seem to do now. The media also didn’t feel they had any obligation to defend Joe Biden like they do now, so they had more of an honest assessment of him.
Now with the Democrats in chaos since the debate about whether Biden should even stay in the race, we’ve noted how the Biden team is trying some unusual defenses, even pulling out making Biden more “orange.” Although, his alleged COVID diagnosis might have killed that effort to make him look healthier.

But it looks like that isn’t all that they are hijacking from Trump.
While Biden is allegedly in “isolation” in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, where they keep no visitor logs so you can’t see who may be visiting and why, his campaign team tried to carry on in his absence. Like Biden, they said things that weren’t true, got names wrong, and they even managed to plagiarize a big thing from Trump.
First, maybe it’s a good thing to be able to correctly pronounce the name of the folks supporting you/on your own team.
Depressed junior Biden spokesman Quentin Fulks calls California Democrat Sen. Alex Padilla the wrong name: “Alex Padilia”

But that says so much about the Biden team, which just can’t get things right and is now desperately trying to hang on with the push to have Biden step aside.
Padilla’s own comment tried to feed the fake Democratic hoax that Trump told people to inject bleach. He said Biden had “Paxlovid? Yes” but “Bleach? No.” This is something Biden himself continues to push, despite it being false.
Even the podium had a falsehood on it, reading “Trump’s Project 2025” when Trump has nothing to do with Project 2025. The Biden team is just so desperate to whip up division, that they have nothing else.
But perhaps the funniest and worst part [for them] of their presentation was Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-OH):

“This November we’re going to make America great again – and we’re gonna do it by defeating Donald Trump at the ballot box in November and sending him back to Mar-a-Lago where he belongs,” she said.
Whatever happened to “Build Back Better”? What does it say, when you have to plagiarize your opponent?
Kind of says that you have nothing in the tank. It’s also an implicit acknowledgment that your opponent’s basic principle is good when you appropriate it. Guess they can’t now attack the expression anymore, when they themselves are using it. Does that make Beatty, by extension, a “MAGA extremist” now? Is she endorsing Trump now?
Biden spox Quentin Fulks insists that Biden was going to be the nominee:
And it came amid reports that high-level Democratic members of Congress have privately expressed doubt to the president about his reelection chances. Fulks on Thursday insisted that the president is all in on his 2024 bid.
“Our campaign is not working through any scenarios where President Biden is not the top of the ticket,” he said. “He is and will be the Democratic nominee.”
It seems to seesaw back and forth by the hour. We shall see.
