It Turns Out Few People Want to Pay $300K to Have Joe Biden Yell Incoherently at Them for an Hour

This week, Democrats dragged Joe Biden out of retirement to have him speak at the 2025 Conference of Advocates, Counselors and Representatives for the Disabled in Chicago. It ... did not go well for old Grandpa Joe. Not only did he tell the crowd he 'never grew up around black people,' he also spent the time lying about Social Security (so much so the official Social Security X account called him out).

He also apparently gave a disastrous speech at Harvard. Here's what the Daily Beast said about it:

The event was reportedly planned weeks in advance, but the timing wasn’t great, as it turned out, with Harvard battling a $2.2 billion funding freeze and threats to its tax-exempt status.
Either way, the clandestine plot for Biden to talk to about 50 students at the Kennedy School was a bust.
…
Biden’s loyal adviser, Mike Donilon, now a resident fellow at Harvard, who accompanied him, had to correct him after he mixed up Ukraine with Iraq as he discussed the war with Russia.
Then he clumsily dropped a melting ice cream bar on the floor after biting into it after his speech, the Crimson reported.

When Joe Biden's dropping perfectly good ice cream, you know things are bad.

Anyway, the former President -- or more likely his grifting handlers -- were really hoping to make bank on Joe after he left the White House. But it seems few people are willing to shell out more than a quarter million dollars to have Biden ramble on:

It’s not just Biden family artwork that’s struggling to sell these days.
Former President Joe Biden’s attempt to bill $300,000 per speaking appearance is finding few takers, The Post has learned — as some of his own former aides say it’s time for the 82-year-old to leave the spotlight for good after reminiscing about “colored kids” Tuesday in his first public address since leaving office.
A source familiar with Biden’s faltering speaking career said that the 46th president’s standard pitch is $300,000 — 25% below Barack Obama’s $400,000 asking price upon leaving office in 2017.
It’s unclear how negotiable Biden’s rate is.
If travel is required, a private jet and expenses for five staffers also is expected for Biden, who has been repped since early February by the Creative Artists Agency.

I’d rather hear a speech by the Disney’s Hall Of Presidents animatronic Joe Biden than I would from the real Joe Biden at this point, I trust the Imagineers to make robot Joe coherent more than than I do Joe’s people to make Joe coherent https://t.co/37aKKDMY1Z pic.twitter.com/iy9AuFWn7X

The robot could probably get $300k.

He’s an elderly man with a poor memory. Maybe his artist son can support him https://t.co/hcQWrVu7w3

Yeah, about Hunter's 'art' ... it's not paying the bills these days.

I only charge $299K per speech. HMU https://t.co/fylrzyBPSM
