Joe and Jill Biden are turning into a case of herpes for the Democrats. They keep breaking out in embarrassing ways at inconvenient moments.

Jill’s revelations from her book last week – that she was “frightened” that Joe was having a stroke during the debate, even though she didn’t act like it at all after the fact – have given the Democrats serious heartburn. After all, they are trying to focus on President Trump and the midterm elections. Every time the Bidens pop back up, it serves as a stark reminder that the Democrats were propping up this cognitively declining old man and running interference for him, decrying anyone who dared point out that Joe wasn’t all there.

As the Now It Can Be Told™ books pop up, Democrats want to point the finger at the Bidens and their inner circle, claiming that they pulled off some kind of elaborate deception campaign, and never, ever, EVER acknowledging that they played a part in it. And Jill Biden coming out with her own memoir is just holding up the mirror to their own sins of omission.

To make matters worse, Jill brought Joe to her book event on Tuesday in New York City, where the old man just had to steal the spotlight for himself. This interaction says a whole lot about their marriage dynamic at the moment, and it is extremely awkward and cringey.

Jill Biden had been wrapping up a Q&A about her newly released book, “A View from the East Wing,” with moderator Whoopi Goldberg at the 92nd Street Y on the Upper East Side when Biden, 83, left his seat in the audience and wandered up to the edge of the stage.

Goldberg had read a comment from the audience thanking Biden for his service, and Jill, 75, stood up to give her husband a standing ovation when the ex-president’s seemingly unplanned speech began.

“I have a question,” Biden said unprompted, and without a microphone, while flanked by security guards.

“Joe has a question, like you couldn’t ask it later?” Jill responded.

“Who do you love most in the whole world?” Biden enquired.

“Whoopi,” Jill answered, causing the audience to break into laughter.

As “The View” co-host tried to speak, Biden continued to stand and blankly face his wife, seemingly unhappy with her answer.

The former first lady eventually caved and said, “I love you most, Joe. Was that it? Was that the answer he wanted?”

“It’s overwhelming, isn’t it?” the 46th president continued — barely audible without a microphone.

“Overwhelming, well, that’s what keeps him on his toes, he’s never 100% sure, I always keep him guessing, is that not true?” Jill said as her husband lowered his head and made the sign of the cross.

In an attempt to end the bizarre moment and wrap up the event, Goldberg encouraged the audience to purchase Jill’s new book. But Biden remained standing and pointed his finger as the exit music played.

“My book…,” Joe Biden began before a crew member came from backstage to hand him a microphone. “My book, which comes out in September, read it…”

“Do I have to remind him that this is my event?” Jill asked jokingly.

“The only thing that Jill does better than write, she’s a beautiful woman,” Biden declared before the event finally concluded.

Yeah. That is not a man who is present in the moment. That is a senile old man who wanted to know why his nurse was up on a stage leaving him out of the moment – “don’t you love me?” – and then decided to remind everyone that HE has a book coming out. Now, we all know that Joe uses ghostwriters, so we all know that he really isn’t “writing” a book. But the idea that another Biden book will be coming out BEFORE the midterms did not fill the Democrats will joy. And they would very much like Jill Biden to take him home, keep him comfortable, and keep her mouth shut.

In fact, one of Biden’s most ardent defenders, Andrew Bates, joined in with other Democrats criticizing Jill. After all, his own complicity would be a lot easier to hide if Jill Biden would just keep quiet.

“We had a duty to win and we didn’t,” Andrew Bates, a spokesman in the Biden administration, told The Post. “I think about that all the time. But I don’t see why that painful conversation for the party needed to be publicly reopened right now.”

But he also said he expected no impact on the midterms, noting they’ll be “a referendum on Republicans’ broken promises to end inflation and stop wars.”

WELL. This got back to Jill, and she was having none of it. How dare anyone question a Biden?

At an event at the Sixth & I Synagogue in Washington, DC, for “View From the East Wing,” she was asked about quotes from Andrew Bates, a former spokesperson for the Biden White House, who told The New York Post, “I don’t see why that painful conversation for the party needed to be publicly reopened right now.”

Biden, 75, brushed off the criticism, noting her memoir only “had one chapter on politics” and the rest was about her four years as first lady.

“I want to say to Andrew: Call me up, and say it to my face, buddy,” she charged.

It appears Jill Biden may have done the unthinkable, and pissed off the people who knew exactly what was going on with the old man behind the curtain.

Another former Biden WH staffer tells me:

“The former First Lady would still be known as the former Second Lady without Andrew Bates.”

No one was more loyal to the Biden family and fought harder for them than @AndrewBatesNC. Shitty to see that that loyalty was a one-way street. https://t.co/wQMWbQCscA

Jill’s comments are guaranteeing that if any of these former Biden loyalists decides that they could make a buck by selling out Old Joe and Regent Jill, they certainly will. But frankly, she deserves it. The dedication in her book proves just what a horrifically vile person Jill Biden really is.

I cannot believe the despicable cruelty of
Jill Biden. In her memoir she intentionally erases her granddaughter, Navy Joan Roberts (7). It is unconscionable what Jill Biden has done, she dedicates the book to her daughter and 4 granddaughters, leaving out 7 year old Navy. Navy… pic.twitter.com/tFUVzAl7XQ

Jill, how many granddaughters do you have? The continued erasure of Navy Joan (while claiming Beau’s daughter and Hunter’s older daughters as her own granddaughters and mentioning them BY NAME) is just as disgusting and revealing now as it was when they were forced to acknowledge her existence years ago. And just who will Joe end up dedicating HIS book to at this point?

I hope the Democrats enjoy their next outbreak of Biden come September. They deserve every minute of this.
