For months, the media have bent over backwards to convince us that 2020 presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren, who plans on paying for a $32 trillion “Medicare For all” bill and $1.25 trillion college plan with an unconstitutional wealth tax accruing just $2.75 trillion, is a serious policy wonk.

In that same time, front-runner Joe Biden has wisely stuck to the sidelines as the crowded left-wing lane of the field careened further towards socialism. And now with the September debates threatening to winnow the field to fewer than ten candidates, and Biden’s polling proving resilient despite racially charged attacks on his career, the media has finally noticed what the rest of us have known for half a century: the former vice president is a gaffe machine.
