Drudge hates Biden now after desperately trying to reelect him because some Trump staffer dissed him.

President Joe Biden’s first televised interview since last week’s debate meltdown did little to stop the bleeding.
Members of Congress and top Democratic operatives told POLITICO shortly after Biden’s sit down with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos aired that the president was more energetic and forceful than he was on stage during last week’s showdown with Donald Trump — but it likely won’t be enough to tame the panic.
And many were shocked by the president’s blatant denial about his standing in the race, and his repeated dismissal of his party’s widespread concerns. It’s an approach some Democrats described as “dangerous.”
“He was more animated and made a strong case for what he has done. But the question the debate raised is about his fitness for the next four years, not his performance in the past four years,” said David Axelrod, the longtime Democratic operative who helped lead Barack Obama’s presidential campaigns. “And he simply doesn’t acknowledge that concern. He also is in denial about where he is in this race.”
A House Democrat, granted anonymity to speak candidly, said: “Denial of the problem is not a solution or a path forward to convincing our constituents that he has the capacity or the vision for four more years.”
And another Democratic operative who has advised the White House called the interview a “stay of execution” but added that the president’s “acceptance of losing to Trump as long as he tried his best will make his hand significantly worse with every Democratic office holder who does not want to lose their seat.”

He is in more trouble because of his performance the last four years.
Wha? Why, he’s perfectly rational and sane?
Biden twenty twenty fo’ yo.
Tik tok. Tik tok. Tik tok.
I don’t think the dementia is causing him to dig in his heels. I think this is how he has always been. He’s a narcissist and weirdly egocentric. The same is true of the previous two Democrat Presidents. It’s what they produce these days.
womp womp
Brandon denier? Something new.
Surely the last 2 years should have awoken them.
How many times does the MSM need to be lied to them before they realize they're chumps.
Biden is going to get a battalion of Ukrainian soldiers from Zelensky to protect him and fight against the Democrats
And what has he done? Besides all the destructive stuff.
Jill and Hunter are holding out for the big money, they know if they keep proclaiming Joe is staying come hell or high water that eventually the party power brokers will come to them and ask them to name their price. Then George Soros will cut them a check for $100 million or however much they demand to walk away gracefully and not make a scene.
MSM does not count for much anymore.
They know it. They played their cards on the debate.
They folded.
DemoRats have their own dictator to contend with and they deserve every bit of him.
They’ve had 3 1/2 years to deal with this.
Yep. Exact same Biden as in 1987. He just falls a lot. A real jerk. We just get him full exposure.
Funny. This is what they said Trump would do.
Four real possibilities for the next 3 months.
Biden is gone in 2 weeks. Harris becomes the candidate.
Biden continues to run for President.
Brokered convention and Biden is out.
Biden has a sudden heart attack.
Drudge hates Biden now after desperately trying to reelect him because some Trump staffer dissed him.
God looks out for drunks, little children, and the United States of America.
Joe did great..like an Olympian.
He in fact turned down the Olympics decades ago out of fairness to the other athletes.
Joe is a fighter, like all Bidens and will battle it out to the end.
