Begala: Democrats’ Credibility Isn’t Hurt at All by Biden Decline, They Were ‘Hoping That He Was Doing Fine’
Breitbart ^

Posted on 05/21/2025 7:02:25 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

On Tuesday’s broadcast of NPR’s “All Things Considered,” CNN Contributor and Democratic strategist Paul Begala said that the revelations about then-President Joe Biden’s mental fitness don’t impact the credibility of the Democratic Party at all and “I don’t think any Democrat who’s going to be facing voters in the midterms was at all complicit.” And there were “a whole bunch of politicians who understandably were rooting for him and hoping that he was doing fine, but they didn’t know.”

Co-host Mary Louise Kelly asked, “What does this mean to your party’s ability to hold President Trump, his administration, and Republicans accountable for policies, for actions you disagree with? Is your credibility shot is the gist of the question.”

Begala responded, “Not even dinged. Not a bit. I do think that members of the Biden team misled us. Every breath that Donald Trump takes is mendacious. And, just as a political strategist, we are 531 days from the midterm elections. We’ve got prices going up because of tariffs. We’ve got the biggest cut in Medicaid in the history of the country. It’s inconceivable that anybody will give a rip snort about Joe Biden’s health in 531 days when their own health care is being cut and their prices are going up.”

He’s right, he’s just not giving the real reason. Dem voters are indoctrinated and stupid. Dem voters won’t be affected by the Biden circus and will vote for whatever the Dems put up as a candidate. Dems will vote for a tomato soup can, as long as it has a D.

That is one of the many reasons we can’t coexist with these people.

You can never trust a democrat again. Period Which is bad for us because the Republicans could provide plenty of shenanigans.

"Democrats credibility."

Oxymoron. They have zero credibility but their constituents are constantly stoned on grass and booze. Barring that, they are very low IQ.

It's the only way they can keep voting for RATs.

Paul Begala said revelations about then-President Joe Biden’s mental fitness don’t impact the credibility of the Democratic Party at all.

BS. The Democratic party spent years covering up, obfuscating and explaining away Biden's obvious dementia - and slamming anyone who questioned it, i.e., Jake Tapper's response to Lara Trump:

"I think you were mocking his stutter…And I think you have no standing to diagnose somebody’s cognitive decline." (Tapper said he apologized later to Lara Trump, but I'd like her to confirm it).

And, there are plenty more examples, i.e., Joe Scarborough.

Their credibility rating is 0%.

Democrat party had no credibility they proved they use a front man to push their socialism and marxism and communism agendas only a stooge with a big ego would let them to do it.

That party is a enemy of the state it’s why the MSM approves of their every action a go team cheering section.

Oh, brother! “They Were ‘Hoping That He Was Doing Fine’”

They were hoping they could hoodwink the American People and retain power for at least another four years.

“a whole bunch of politicians who understandably were rooting for him and hoping that he was doing fine, but they didn’t know.”

They truly didn't know that FJB was non compos mentis? Then they're too stupid even to hold public office.
