Biden: Slip Slidin' Away
WFB ^ | 7 June 2024 | Mathew Continetti

Posted on 06/08/2024 5:36:52 AM PDT by Rummyfan

You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away

- Paul Simon

President Biden "shows signs of slipping," the Wall Street Journal reported this week. Journalists Annie Linskey and Siobhan Hughes—no conservatives—spoke to 45 people who have met with the president and noticed his mental and physical decline. They recount, in detail, several meetings over the past year where Biden has been forgetful, confused, and out of it. The president, Linskey and Hughes report, "appears slower now, someone who has both good moments and bad ones."

No kidding.

You don't need the Journal to tell you that Biden is diminished. You need only to open your eyes. Go over Special Counsel Robert Hur's report into Biden's unauthorized removal of classified documents. Review Biden's Oval Office meltdown after Hur released his findings. Watch Biden try to sit at a D-Day commemoration in France on Thursday.

Or read, if you dare, the transcript of Time magazine correspondent Massimo Calabresi and editor in chief Sam Jacobs's recent interview of Biden. It appeared the same day as Linskey and Hughes's story.

This is the interview where Biden says—twice—that Russia invaded Russia. Where, immediately after saying, "I'm not going to comment," Biden says that "there is every reason" to believe Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu is prolonging the war against Hamas for political gain. Then Biden says that the 19 percent increase in prices since he became president is due to "shrinkflation" and that he could "take" the Time reporter who asks about his advanced age.

If they go ahead with the presidential debate, they will drug him up bigtime. My hope is that they get the dosage a little off and he implodes in some fashion. That would be a sight to see.

I figure they will give him questions and answers ahead of time. But if he’s not functioning well, he may struggle to recall the script he’s expected to follow and his failure may become very obvious. Bad for him. Bad for the cheating media. Great entertainment.

For the people of The United States to be afflicted with this doddering, bitter fool of a man is beyond shameful. It is criminal.

Biden couldn’t do a debate at this point without a written script or an earpiece with someone telling him what to say. What would be interesting is if someone were to hijack the receiver and get him to say whatever..

They might even pull out of the debates, saying to the GOP, “Put up a candidate who isn’t a convicted felon and the President will debate him. It’s beneath the office of President to be appear with a convict.”

I agree, I don’t believe there will be a debate between Biden and Trump.

The current problem with the tainted jury makes for an interesting twist. If the NY case becomes a mistrial, then Trump is no longer a “convicted felon”. That makes it awkward for Biden to pull out because debating Trump would be beneath the dignity of the Office of the President. Hey, innocent until proven guilty, right?

There's a character in Tolkien's writings, Tar-Atanamir. He's the thirteenth king of Numenor. Now, Numenorians have a gift from Eru (God). They get to choose their time of passing. When it's "that time" they simply lie down and go in peace. It's the natural way of life for them.

Tar-Atanamir doesn't do that though. He's afraid of death as are a growing number of the people. First he doesn't give the royal scepter to his son when his proper time as king is over. Then he refuses to die at the right time. He clings to life beyond all joy. He lives to be 421 years old and he dies an incontinent babbling dementia-ridden fool still on the throne.

When I first read of the character I wondered what that would look like.

Because of Joe Biden, I wonder no more.

Trump knows that Joe is a lifelong hothead. Even though Joe gets the questions ahead of time, Trump will take him off of his game early, and often.
Joe will melt down and start yelling incomprehensible words within the first five minutes.
His handlers will probably have a reason to end the grilling and pull Joe out.
I am so looking forward to it.
Of course, they’ll bait Trump to try to get him to violate the gag order, or offend Merchan in some way.

This isn’t something that has JUST happened - they knew it, they allowed it, they pushed it, they mocked us over it and now they are running an angry old man who sits in his crap filled diapers.

Are they looking for sympathy?

The only reason Biden agreed is because he thought Trump would be in Rikers and unable to debate.

Debates need to happen STANDING at podiums and a jammer for any earpieces.

For decades I heard the lyric as:

You’re nowhere near your destination
anymore, you’re slip slidin’ away.

I learned something now.

NOT if you’re a Republican. Then you are always, unconditionally GUILTY.

Biden uses the senile act to serve as a constant distraction and divert attention from his truly evil machinations, which are pretty sophisticated. His act has already allowed him to avoid impeachment, and he has dodged other attacks.

He shakes off his senility when he gets into an argument with someone and then he is just a mean and nasty and on point as he was when he was a 29 year old punk ass undeserved Senator.

Just as stupid, ignorant, and arrogant too.

The organizers of the current communist takeover are all the usual suspects, maybe Jarret and Obama leading it, though the latter is really too dumb to be doing it. Frau Verbissen Jarret is maybe the point 'man'.

As a class politicians are amazing to me because they can be exposed, embarrassed, caught off guard, etc., in an argument, and they never break stride. Like a graduate of The Actors Studio, they stare in mirrors and rehearse not looking like liars or being guilty.

Biden reminds me of Glen Campbell, who though slipping with regard to memory was still able to play guitar as a virtuoso.

Old politicians are like this. They can blather on and on and on about their lies and canned phrases and talking points, looking like they are competent, but really just puking out their subroutines from their brainstems, something that they have done since forever.

Something they could do in their sleep, or maybe even if decapitated.

Their ratcheted jaws and tongues would still mouth their cant phrases and lies as if their heads were still attached to their bodies.

THAT's how you can spot a politician.

Maybe the Joe’s handlers will push him until about 3 months before the 2024 election and then nominate someone like Newsom to run for Prez hoping the morons loyal to their party will vote for him in spite of his miserable record of accomplishments in California.

They’re setting the stage to replace him no doubt about it.

I believe they are behind the scenes right now to come up with a reason for Biden not to debate Trump. The news of the day about the Troll/Jurist relative could possible part of this, hard to tell at this point. I was expecting them to come out and say Biden will not debate a felon, and that is probably how they are gonna present it, with their Pravda media running with it and saying “its the right thing to do”
