The last couple of weeks have not been kind to Joe Biden. Through several missteps and maneuvers Biden is beginning to resemble Joe Biden — the man clumsily bounced out of presidential races in 1988 and 2008.

His recent abortion policy reversal, a clumsy climate plan and revelations about his lack of military service during the Vietnam War as well as resurfaced video of him falsely claiming to have marched in the Civil Rights movement remind us that Joe Biden not only has baggage, but is, in fact, mostly baggage.

Up to and including the first part of this week, Biden supported the Hyde Amendment, which bans the use of federal dollars to fund abortion in most cases. As the progressives in the Democratic Party as well as the media continued to lambaste him for it, he finally declared “No mas,” and by Thursday he completely reversed his position.

For his trouble he still received a mauling from party-favorite Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. “If you’re going to come out and say you used to support the Hyde Amendment,” she said. “… that’s not progressive. That’s not a progressive position.”

Tuesday, just as the Biden campaign was releasing his climate plan, they began apologizing for it after the Daily Caller reported that much of it appeared to be borrowed from other sources without citation. “Several citations, some from sources cited in other parts of the plan, were inadvertently left out of the final version of the 22-page document,” read the subsequent statement.

With a candidate first introduced to many Americans as a plagiarist, this is a near-mortal blow.

The Trump campaign wasted no time piling on. “Four decades in public life and there’s always one constant. What would a Joe Biden candidacy be without a little plagiarism?” asked communications director Tim Murtaugh.

Friday, the New Hampshire Journal unearthed a part of Biden’s life rarely talked about: his debilitating asthma, which did not prevent him from becoming an accomplished athlete but kept him out of the military during the Vietnam War.

On President Trump’s lack of military service due to “bone spurs,” candidate and Mayor Pete Buttigieg said, “You have somebody who thinks it’s all right to have somebody go in his place into a deadly war and is willing to pretend to be disabled to do it. That is an assault on the honor of this country.”

Keep your head down, Joe.

This week the New York Times posted video of candidate Biden in 1987 stating, stone-faced and serious, “When I marched in the civil rights movement, I marched with tens of thousands of others to change attitudes.”

But he did not, in fact march in the civil rights movement. A CNN panel on the topic burst into laughter at the campaign’s handling of the matter.

People are finding out who Joe Biden is. No longer is he just the loyal wingman for Barack Obama, he’s a guy with policy and personality problems who’s lost about nine points in the polling average in the last month.

Democrats are looking for a candidate who can vanquish Donald Trump. More and more, however they are seeing Biden handing Trump the very weapons with which he can win a second term.
