Every mainstream news source, every Democrat who spent time with Biden, and every commentator on MSNBC and CNN said Biden was perfectly fine.
So why are all of them now trying to replace him in the election?

It wasn't exposed to them real-time.
People should think about why the first debate was held well before the conventions.
People should think about why two CNN moderators who are the worst of the worst actually played it straight and didn't seek to "fact check" Trump even once - instead letting Biden go down in flames.
People should think about the news media all having the same message afterward: Biden needs to be replaced and Trump lied throughout (even though not one of them enumerated facts about any so-called lie from Trump - just the message that he continuously "lied".
This was a planned and staged occurrence.
Think Weekend at Bernie's.
Wilson as well.
Hell....I saw it the first campaign.
I don’t believe that anyone in-the-know in Washington didn’t know about his condition. All the general public (of which I am a member) had to do to have a hunch about Biden’s condition is pay attention to many of his public appearances. The Washington types were complicent in covering up the fact that Biden is an impaired figurehead, and they are faking shock now that the cat got out of the bag in front of 50 million people. “You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.” Some of the previously-fooled are fooled no longer. May those who covered up for Biden and his puppetmasters fall along with them.
Xactly.
I’m not exactly sure what the plan is that is being pushed...but this sure as chit isn’t a natural story-line.
I’d be 110% behind Trump and he’d be my best bet if he hadn’t screwed up his 1st opportunity to set the ship right by very poor people choices and pursuing crap like bump stock bans.
Because they’ve decided he can’t win. If he were doing better in the polls, they’d still be saying he’s perfectly fine, as sharp as ever.
Libs were fine with Biden closing down the pipelines, putting thousands in the oil industry out of work. When gas prices shot up, the backed him, even though it really hurt the poorest of Americans. When he opened the borders, they cheered him, though it crippled our health care systems, hospitals and border patrols. Our children raped, no problem, Biden was their hero. Murder and other crime up, all good.
Inflation, high rent, debt, homelessness, abandoned vets. No problemo, especially if it isn’t even reported.
However, the moment he lost the debate and appeared to verge on ceding the POWER of the White House, he was turned on. I don’t mean the next day. Within an hour of the debate, calls went out for his head on a plate.
The vilest of the sinking ship rats were the Hollywood elites. The ‘We are in no way decent human beings but we play one on tv’ crowd turned the fastest. Followed by the MSM and the liberal politicians.
Very predictable.
We all suspect its Obama and the cabal behind him but normies who have been distracted by the bread and circuses might start asking the same question.
“Every mainstream news source, every Democrat who spent time with Biden, and every commentator on MSNBC and CNN said Biden was perfectly fine.”
Definitely NOT what happened. The media is in full panic.
... because they were handed their “breaking news” reports directly from Democrat operatives.
They never tracked down the information, just reported what they were given.
And now their cover is broken. We all saw Biden’s lack of capability with our own eyes and they don’t know how to deal with it.
Fixed it
Some guy on Twitter.. My democrat for life Mom called, she said “I didn’t know he was that bad. “
Let’s all call them out on this as the foneys they are,then MSM globalist will have to replace them as they are painted in their true colors.

@BillAckman on X
As much as the debate was an indictment of the Democratic Party for misleading party members and the country about the mental acuity and health of the president, the media deserve far more derision and scorn. I and others were repeatedly criticized by the media for questioning the competency of the president. Among other false accusations, I was accused of spreading misleading videos which clearly showed Biden’s deterioration. .......the heavily excerpted and edited Biden 60Minutes interview covered for the president by saying he was ‘very tired?’
@60Minutes knew.
The @nytimes knew.
@CNN knew.
@MSNBC knew.
Left wing media have had total and complete access to the president, his staff, and his administration. They all knew, but they told you otherwise. They outright lied to you. When Robert Hur, the special counsel who deposed the president, said that the president was not fit to stand trial and therefore chose not to bring charges, the media described him as a tool of the Republican Party and character assassinated him. When the @WSJ recently published a several-thousand-word, carefully researched, front page piece on the president’s mental and physical health, it was described by left wing media as outright propaganda. Now consider who has been feeding you propaganda.
A favored technique of some of the most evil leaders in history was to mislead the people by constantly repeating the Big Lie. The Big Lie is so audacious that people accept it as truth because it is repeated so often that how can it be that something so important and material could be an outright falsehood? In this case the Big Lie was our president’s fitness for office, let alone a second term. A media organization is not supposed to be a branch of the Democratic Party. The media have a profound obligation to tell the truth to the American people, particularly about something as critical for the country as the president’s mental and physical health.
People very close to me trusted the media on Biden until the
@CNN commentators finally owned up to the truth about Biden last night. For months I have been accused by many friends and family of being misled by an @X-based ‘right wing echo chamber.’ The sad reality is that one of our most important institutions, the so-called ‘Fourth Estate,’ fourth only after the clergy, the nobility, and the commoners, has destroyed any remaining credibility it has.
Consider how your perception of Biden and Trump has been manipulated. The media can no longer save itself. A suggestion. Rely on empirical data as much as possible. Listen to what someone actually said, rather than a headline summary or article about what someone said. Get your news from people who have a track record of telling the truth, people who do so at significant personal cost like whistleblowers.
I follow broad constituencies on @X on multiple issues. That has led me closer to the truth. Citizen journalism has been a much more accurate representation of reality. Thank you @elonmusk for saving this platform. It gives us a fighting chance to save our democracy.
You are spot on. I’m not surprised at the behavior of the Democrats - scorpions sting, snakes bite, dung beetles roll balls of excrement, and Democrats lie, cheat and steal - it’s their nature.
But the press is supposed to be a brake on the excesses of the political players; our press is (largely) a collection of enablers and co-conspirators of the party of the left. The Democrats I simply recognize for the slime they are; the press I hold in utter contempt.
“The media have a profound obligation to tell the truth to the American people, particularly about something as critical for the country as the president’s mental and physical health.“
But they did exactly that…by their own lights.
In their own corrupted Godless minds they are the good., they are the righteous. The truth is what serves their sensibilities. No hyperbole intended here. They are moral perfection and can’t be wrong. This has been the case with the left all my life and doubtless for all of history.
Go back to Jimmy Carter. Listen to his speeches prior to winning. He only wanted goodness and light for us all. When his presidency went into the crapper WHY COULCN’T HE FIX IT? If you or I are attempting to accomplish a thing we form a plan and execute. If it goes wrong we rethink and reformulate. Jimmy couldn’t because he was right and we were in a “malaise “ and he wasn’t responsible for our shortcomings.
These people are and were always evil harboring or suffering from or being infallibly ruled by one or more of the seven deadly sins.
Democrats I recognize for the slime they are; the press I hold in utter contempt.
Amen.
