The comeback tour is on after Joe Biden announced he's staying in the race, and it's going about as well as you'd expect. By well, I mean it's an absolute catastrophe for his campaign.
On Friday, the president showed up in Wisconsin to hold a "rally." The plan was simple. Have Biden yell from a teleprompter for a few minutes while appearing somewhat lucid. If he could pull that off, perhaps the White House would have the fodder necessary to push back on the current narrative about the president's senility.
So yeah, that didn't happen. Biden was over an hour late for the event, only reinforcing the fact that he's struggling to make public appearances. As to the crowd? It didn't exactly scream enthusiasm either.
When Biden finally did show up, he shuffled onto the stage, choppy steps and all. Whether he had any idea what was going on was an open question, and one of his supporters trolled him on stage. The White House handlers have to be chain-smoking at this point.
Then there was the speech itself. Democrats were hoping to see a Hail Mary pass completed. What they got was Biden providing more evidence that he has no business running for reelection. He slurred. He forgot words. He rambled incoherently. He screamed nonsensically. It was all on display.

There's video.
So what they’re saying is, Joe would have to be crazy to stay in the race 🤔
Out of maybe 700 people, there is exactly ONE black person at the end of the video.
The President of the USA holding a “rally” in a junior high school auditorium? How pathetic is that?
When I was a kid, I remember one trip to DC with my family and my dad hoisting me up hoping to catch just a GLIMPSE of the president in the sea of people.
Need to let him alone. He is doing a great job.
Run Joe run! This is a gift. Joe was always an angry, narcissistic, stubborn liar. Now the communists have to deal with the pile of crap that they installed in the White House. Biden has all the delegates, he can carry this on as long as he chooses. It’s delightful.
I hope he stays to the end, but it’s likely someone will get to him and say: “You know Joe, the DOJ has been ignoring some things that they just may become interested in, if you stay in.” Then they get Kamala!
Seeing the commies twist like this is so good. If only the public wasn’t stupid and distracted.
Kurt Vonnegut lives
Frank Sinatra redux. Wife pushing him on stage to sing, long after his use by date had been reached.
I was off yesterday and made a point of watching it. I didn’t realize he was an hour late. This is chronic with him. I don’t care who you are; chronic tardiness is extremely rude. He’s trying to win these people over; his career depends on it
That said, for Joe I thought I was good and got the job done
Karma is wonderful.
Doubt there were that many not counting reporters and staff.
The 700 were invited [forced] State and County workers who were bused in to act like they supported Joe.
Shhhh, just four more months . . .
“When I was a kid, I remember one trip to DC with my family and my dad hoisting me up hoping to catch just a GLIMPSE of the president in the sea of people.”
...which President?
Joe’s already won Wisconsin. They’ll have the ballot drop boxes again.
There were black speakers and several black women behind him on stage.
I’m pretty sure it was Eisenhower. Might have been Kennedy or Johnson, though (somewhere in the 1960 to 1964 time period).
I just remember all the to-do about it and the throng of people. Other than that, I remember thinking “What’s the big deal?”
My Dad was a solid Republican, so I doubt it was Kennedy or Johnson.
Interesting. But a lily-white audience (can’t call it a “crowd”).
What are possible complications of Parkinson disease?
Parkinson disease causes physical symptoms at first. Problems with cognitive function, including forgetfulness and trouble with concentration, may start later. As the disease gets worse over time, about 4 in 5 people develop dementia. This can cause profound memory loss and make it hard to maintain relationships. This often happens later in the course of the disease.
Parkinson disease dementia can cause problems with:
Speaking and communicating with others
Problem solving
Understanding abstract concepts
Forgetfulness
Paying attention
If you have Parkinson disease and dementia, you likely won’t be able to live by yourself at some point. Dementia affects your ability to care for yourself, even if you can still physically do daily tasks.
Experts don’t understand how or why dementia often occurs with Parkinson disease.
But it’s clear that dementia and problems with cognitive function are linked to changes in the brain that cause problems with movement. As with Parkinson disease, dementia occurs when nerve cells breakdown, leading to chemical changes in the brain. Parkinson disease dementia may be treated with medicines also used to treat Alzheimer disease, another type of dementia.
Never heard that story. Where can I get more info, please?
