Why are you all so surprised to find out that BIden is actually senile and incompetent? Perhaps this is montage of mainstream media cilps singing the praises of Joe Biden from just a few weeks ago will explain why you are so surprised. It stars at 5:15

Given that Biden talked it up, you get a free pass on this.

I would add that all the talk of “genocide Joe” is also stupid. Trump would be much worse in every conceivable way, including Palestine.
Do you want to win Michigan or not? Do you think you're going to get the votes you need in Dearbourne, Michigan while simultaneously believing that Israel has a right to exist? Biden is losing not because he's senile. He's been senile since he took office. He's losing because he's beholden to the insane radical and violent leftwing base, which is the only reason they supported him in the first place. He's the only "moderate" Democrat that the radical communist left and shadow emperor Obama can completely control. RFK was unacceptable to them. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders, Rashida Talib, and Jamal Bowman are open antisemite Marxist with a combined IQ under 100. They can't win either.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Biden is definitely old. Incompetent? No. Trump was always a failure at everything except promoting his brand. You were suckered by the one thing he was ever somewhat good at.

By your own admission you are mentally challenged. What value does your assessment have, do you suppose? You calling Bernie an anti-Semite shows your abject stupidity.

Shadow Emporer Obama?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

There is no Shadow Emperor. That’s conspiracy theory lunacy invented to try and explain away the fact Biden has a stronger track record as President than Trump.

Meanwhile, the guy who is actually senile and incompetent:
an old man who has lost his grip wrote:
“I say, ‘What would happen if the boat sank from its weight, and you’re in the boat, and you have this tremendously powerful battery, and the battery’s now underwater, and there’s a shark that’s approximately 10 yards over there?’
“By the way, a lot of shark attacks lately, do you notice that? Lot of sharks. I watched some guys justifying it today: ‘Well they weren’t really that angry, they bit off the young lady’s leg because of the fact that they were not hungry but they misunderstood who she was.’ These people are crazy. He said, ‘There’s no problem with sharks, they just didn’t really understand a young woman swimming.’ No, really got decimated, and other people, too, a lot of shark attacks.
“So I said, ‘There’s a shark 10 yards away from the boat, 10 yards, or here. Do I get electrocuted if the boat is sinking, water goes over the battery, the boat is sinking? Do I stay on top of the boat and get electrocuted, or do I jump over by the shark and not get electrocuted?’ Because I will tell you, he didn’t know the answer.
“He said, ‘You know, nobody’s ever asked me that question.’ I said, ‘I think it’s a good question. I think there’s a lot of electric current coming through that water.’ But you know what I’d do if there was a shark or you get electrocuted? I’ll take electrocution every single time. I’m not getting near the shark. So we’re going to end that, we’re going to end it for boats, we’re going to end it for trucks
he/him
we all just have to live through it,
holding each other’s hands.

It was a tough watch for sure. Not sure there is any likelihood Biden would step aside, and it would probably do damage, too. Trump would gain momentum from being seen as having taken him out.

ETA: And to be fair I think Biden was better than the optics paint. He struggled to lucidly layout his points (it would have been nice to see him get to 3 once or twice). But he was generally commenting on facts while facing a firehouse of BS that a younger, more cool candidate could have taken down with a jab or two rather than seeming baffled by it. It's one of the moments when I find myself thinking how we ended up in a system where an unfortunately large percentage of folks vote for the person they think has the nicer smile but confabulate reasons other than that for why they voted as they did. Biden isn't a good front person for what is largely a very competent administration. But we don't think about it that ways. It's still high school prom, with nukes.
Right. I'd never thought I'd say this, but why the hell doesn't Gavin take one for the team? I didn't think much of old Gav until the Lincoln Project promoted him.

I didn't watch the debate. Aside from the obvious reasons why I might not watch it, I just rarely watch debates. As Res said, they are pointless. But, they are also popular given the rise of YouTube. So they do matter. Can't we just fight fire with fire a little bit? While I didn't watch the debate, I was on YouTube looking for anything new in the UAP world, and checking back home occasionally for commentary from "my team" as it became available. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. And finally, a whole slew of videos with titles like, "Bidon Lost". "Democrat's in panic". Trump supporters get in front of it putting on diapers and blowing up penis balloons to show their support of Trump. (do any of that, Ajax?) Trump can't lose, no matter what. Can't we just once say that Biden won, no matter what? Everyone on the left is getting to the front of the line to be honest. If we were to coopt the right-wing playbook, we'd pick the absolute worst footage of Biden in that debate, and then promote it as "game over" for republicans.

From the clips I saw, Biden only lost in the sense that he called out Trump, and then couldn't respond to him, and then made excuses that it's hard to debate a liar. (why am I even saying this? I should just be saying Biden is a genius, the worse his responses were, the more genius, that's the MAGA playbook.)

Anticipating this could lead to a loss, my only recompense is that I know something about economics. I'm no expert, but I know enough to say this. If Trump (or Biden) wins, there is only one serious possibility for inflation dropping substantially. A major recession and deflation, which is far more serious than inflation.

Pick any Trump quote and it is either incoherent, a complete lie, or an ugly admission of his reprehensible character. You really have to question anyone who would cast a vote for the man. Calling Biden incoherent and then saying you support Trump is a real forehead slapper.

As a human being: Heartbreaking to watch - I felt for Biden's family - I struggle to understand how his inner circle could possibly have allowed him to take the stage.

As an American citizen: Watching the sitting President was very troubling/concerning on several levels.

As a Christian: I am saddened as I anticipate how many will use this heart-wrenching event to mock and humiliate a human being for political gains. Understanding how many families face similar/difficult situations with a loved one, I find myself overflowing with empathy and compassion.
I'm used to the "f Biden" shirts and bumper stickers that middle-aged Christian men in my neighborhood are fascinated with so no big deal.

Public speaking is part of a politicians job. It's not the most important part, but it is important. The administration is stable, and the fact a guy can't speak in front of hundreds of millions of people doesn't mean he can't do his job although in this case, it sure would be a "nice to have".

Well that should set you up nicely for 2028. By then you'll have legalized enough illegal immigrants that you won't have to worry about elections like this anymore. Just promise me that if the 2028 election gets close you won't sabotage the economy with a scamdemic again to make sure you win. We're still paying for the last time you pulled that stunt.
