Down Goes Biden
American Thinker.com ^ | October 4, 2020 | David Keltz

Posted on 10/04/2020 8:12:17 AM PDT by Kaslin

Has there ever been a presidential nominee who looked more overmatched by his opponent? Contrary to what the pundits in the mainstream media would have you believe, President Donald Trump obliterated Joe Biden in the presidential debate on Tuesday night, and it really was not even close. This was an Ali-Liston fight without a first round phantom punch. For 90 minutes, the president landed one body blow after another, leaving the former vice-president reeling with his back against the ropes, only to be rescued by Chris Wallace, the debate “moderator,” who repeatedly made the president return to his neutral corner by silencing him. Spare me the “Trump did not act presidential” hogwash. Considering that Biden received a pass for referring to Trump as the “worst president” the country ever had, called him a “clown” and a “racist,” and told him to “shut up,” the national media has zero credibility lecturing Trump about presidential decorum.

Trump’s winning strategy was clear from the start. He forced Biden to either embrace the radical left wing of his party or disavow it. Whichever answer Biden provided would be a losing proposition for him. Embracing the far left would provide Trump the opportunity to paint him as a socialist who supports the Bernie Sanders/Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez agenda. Disavowing the radical left would cause Biden to lose support from the extreme wing of his party. Biden chose the latter, further playing right into Trump’s hands. “You agreed with Bernie’s manifesto,” Trump said. “There is no manifesto,” Biden responded. “You just lost the left,” an elated Trump said. Checkmate.

Not a single person who watched the debate in its entirety can say with any degree of intellectual integrity that Biden looked like someone ready to become the next commander in chief.

Biden gave no answers. Said he wouldn’t say if he’d pack the court or not.

Biden will get less votes than Hillary. Hillary has the leftist feminists voting for her and she could get a small crowd. Biden can’t draw flies.

Trump’s winning strategy was clear. He forced Biden to either embrace Democrat's radical left wing or disavow it.
Whichever answer Biden gave would be a losing proposition........Biden placed between a rock and a hard place.

<><> Biden's embracing the far left would give Trump ammunition to target Biden as a socialist in league w/ the Bernie/AOC radical agenda.
<><> Biden's disavowing the radical left would cause Biden to lose support from the extreme wing of his party.

Biden chose the latter....playing right into Trump’s hands. “You agreed with Bernie’s manifesto,” Trump said.
“There is no manifesto,” Biden stupidly responded.

“You just lost the left,” an elated Trump said.

People don not want to lose their grip on power.

Nonsense!! There are many pearl clutchers right here on FR who threw in the towel and not only declared Trump the loser of the debate but claimed his performance would surely cost him the election.

This whole show is a major farce and proves/shows nothing new. That Trump is an aggressive, effective executive we already knew by virtue of his success in the business world and the last three plus years of his presidency where the economy and jobs market has risen steadily. That Biden is a slobbering, geriatric fool we also knew even before the curtain went up on this rediculous sham.

Disavowing the radical left would cause Biden to lose support from the extreme wing of his party.

Not true.

The radical left will vote for Biden et al regardless of what he says in debates or campaign speeches.

Other than getting votes from Liberal elites and mainstream media talking heads, I don't see a path for a Biden Victory.

Biden is a proven failed candidate.

From the article

When Trump accused Biden of destroying the economy with his climate plan Biden said, “The Green New Deal is not my plan,” apparently forgetting that on his website it says, “Biden believes the Green New Deal is a crucial framework.” Later in the debate, Biden said “The Green New Deal will pay for itself as we move forward.” When he was asked again by Wallace if he supported it he said, “No, I don’t support the Green New Deal.”

I remember him saying the Green New Deal will pay for itself, before saying he's giving us the Biden Deal, not the Green New Deal. But all the goals he listed were GND goals. And rejoining Paris which will gut the US economy.

The ***- kissing MSM has zero credibility lecturing Trump about presidential decorum. The down and dirty Biden received
a pass, referring to Trump as the “worst president,” a “clown” a “racist," and a "liar,” telling a sitting president to “shut up.”

Hillary's "deplorables" remark got Trump 63 million votes that beat her soundly.

Biden's vituperative tirade against Trump is certainly worth millions of votes more.

People want to think that conservatives and Trump loses when leftists are not swayed by the truth. They think, like in the days of Bush, that there is a way to sway the left. There is not.

Trump will not win them over in a debate. They hate him they hate the truth they hate their dysfunctional lives

Either There are more of them voting, and in particular electoral places, and/or their cheating overcomes Trump’s electorate or not

Clutching pearls over Trump’s public recognition of their evil lying ways does not fix anything

“Newer World Order” says Joe Biden’s handler...puppetmaster.

Did you ever read Joe Biden’s position papers? No, neither have I because this 47 year virus in the system has never done any. Here’s the most honest assessment I have ever seen written about Joe Biden and it comes from the LEFT side of the internet...

I keep asking: what does Jill Biden have on the DNC that she’s able to have a stranglehold on the nomination?

Or is Joe the sap they put up because they knew he wouldn’t win— and they’d have plausible deniability in him getting elected (and immediately replaced)?

Conspiracy theory: did Trump claim CoVid to pre-empt Joe claiming it?

The most probing, trenchant questions of the night to Biden came not from the “moderator,” but from DJT.

I think Trump’s strategy in part was to make Biden look unpresidential. Watching that debate in away you’d come away thinking Biden is no different. He shares he does name calling ,he interrupts just like Trump. Might as well just keep Trump. Time will tell. God willing Trump can win again

I ask how and why are they running him? If the Durham report comes out and Biden is implicated wouldn’t this throw him out of the race. We either have this so wrong about Obama and Biden and company in on this Russia mess or something else is up. Yes I heard he would only be a figurehead but it just doesn’t make sense.

Read that sentence again, especially the bolded words:

"“Not a single person who watched the debate in its entirety can say with any degree of intellectual integrity that Biden looked like someone ready to become the next commander in chief.”

Democrats/Leftists live for power ... their obviously sole reason for living ... just look at the Democrat/Left governors.
