It's almost ELDER ABUSE. Joe Biden released a documentary-style trailer for his memoir, "Promise Me, America". He was bumbling so bad, they even had to include subtitles.

Graham Platner, a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate, was described by three women who dated him as emotionally and physically violent.
