Juuuuuuust in case you didn’t think Joe Biden could possibly look any worse after flipping and flopping all over the Hyde Amendment, take a look at this. Flashback to less than 48 hours ago, when Biden campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond told CNN’s Chris Cuomo how “deeply religious” Joe Biden remained firm in his unwavering commitment to upholding the Hyde Amendment:
"He is a deeply religious man…he is guided by his faith, his position on the Hyde Amendment has been consistent."

Whoopsie?
Just how abrupt/poorly orchestrated was Joe Biden’s shift on Hyde? Weds night, Biden campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond went on @CuomoPrimeTime to defend Biden’s support for the Hyde amendment. Less than 24 hours later, Biden reversed his position. https://t.co/wjSFGgLfC9

I guess his “deep religion” wasn’t much of a constraint.

He’d change his position on anything to get elected. Another run of the mill politician.
