Felt a slight twinge of unease when Biden laughed while uttering the phrase "health and well-being of our fellow citizens" after the 7:02 mark.
Then again, I've heard Biden uses a number of unusual strategies to combat the largely hidden reality that he stutters, or would do so if he did NOT use said strategies ...

The ability to select the worst representatives of the opposite side, frame questions and answers in the worst possible light, blend truth with falsehood ...
I would say Jonathan Klepper is next level in doing such things, but, that ignores there was a time I didn't know one had to be vigilant against this type of editing and deception. It might have been just as prevalent before and I didn't know it.
It might also be that this is just a rather blatantly obvious instance. And thus that subtler forms of deceit were not only missed by me before, but are being missed even now.
2 sided for that matter? Would, say, Ben Shapiro, assuming that Biden's largely unknown to the public problem of stuttering were made known to Ben, would he stop crediting it to dementia? Or keep propagating what he has to the present all the same?

I'm debating, sometime in the future, to examine microfiche from the New York Times newspapers around the time of the Whitewater scandal.
For in one article I read now perhaps 20 years ago, I recalled the subtlest deceptive framing device I've been able to recognize.
Hillary Clinton outlining the amount of time she devoted to a firm.
Then a new paragraph SEEMING to contradict her account because it began with or was connected to her argument via the word "but" and giving what LOOKED like an entirely different and far greater amount of time.
Quick reading would make the average reader believed she lied, and, back then, 1995-1998 or thereabouts, portraying the Clintons as liars or deceives was a relatively popular thing to do.
But despite the number of proven lies the Clintons HAVE engaged in, this wasn't such an instance.
I compared the 2 accounts, tallying the total amount of time SHE said she contributed versus the amount of time NYT said she did.
The amounts of time totalled EXACTLY the same.
I was stunned to realize how much persuasive power the writer wielded.
With exactly ONE word, he or she was probably able to color the perceptions of several thousand readers. One word, in a jumble of hundreds ...!
It's one of the greatest minor regrets of my literary self, not recording or photocopying that long ago article. Not in all my years of reading have I found such masterful use of ONE word to color audience perception ...

Will have to see if it has any staying power.
