With a script to the softest of softball interviewers Tired Old Joe can't do it. I can get the ball over the uprights for a homerun! I ain't licked yet!

I know voices can sound like shit over the phone but I got the sense he was on speaker phone so he had minders. He hard to understand even considering how hard it is to typically understand him. He sounded like death warmed over. How many days will it be until he has a "bad day" like the debate. My bet is ~14 from today.

This is reminiscent of when Trump used to call in to Fox News.

Absolutely. Morning Joe is his cheering section. In my mind's eye I see him actually saying out loud to his aides in his slurry way "Doyahink Morning Joe 'ill like it?"
