Joe Biden’s campaign often seems stuck in the past, in a time when record players and malarkey were still things.
He seems to have trouble understanding present technology, walking off cameras during town halls and sounding as though he never heard of teleconferencing.
But his campaign really didn’t understand what they were doing when they invited people to make their own memes at avatar.joebiden.com with the slogan “I’m on Team Joe.”
Didn’t anybody consider what people would do with it? Apparently not.
But, on the plus side, it enabled a lot of people to have a little fun. It’s often been said that the left can’t meme and that is surely true. But they did provide the opportunity here for the right and others to show off their abilities.
Here’s a small sample.

Unfortunately, Twitter apparently can’t take a joke and allegedly suspended @Alx for sharing this meme, as my colleague Jennifer Van Laar reported.

Twitter needs to ante up and explain themselves; this is only the latest in a series of conservative suspensions.
But you can check out more at the #teamjoe hashtag on Twitter and meme-makers out there who haven’t taken a crack at this yet, here’s your chance. Have at it and join Team Joe with your best lines. Remember — no malarkey!
