On CNN, it is reported Democrats are thinking, "Biden's performance was dismal... some of the conversations include should we go to the White House to ask the President to step aside.
He should be on the Group W bench, with the mother rapers and father rapers…
Yeah, I’m watching some live streams and it’s freaking fire and brimstone over in the left wing circles. I think whether we meant to or not the hand might’ve been overplayed a bit because Biden is a weak candidate and we might not get him as an opponent because of what happened tonight. And in all honesty, just watching him and a few clips, I saw he literally looks like an old man that could die at any moment
“She’s not giving up her perch as FLOTUS without a knock down, drag out fight.”
Absolutely correct!
Dems: joe you need to step aside
Joe: from what?
Dems: as president
Joe: president of what?
Dems: that debate performance was awful.
Joe: I slaughtered that gal from Alabaska.
We’re clearly in an Emperor has no clothes moment, you can’t fool everyone forever.
I don’t know that a swap out saves their rule. Biden is firmly a failed presidency at this point and all that baggage doesn’t go away (his policies).
Will Biden resign? It is interesting how much that is the conversation on the networks.
Governor Creosote of Illinois fashions himself as the savior of the party and logical choice to replace Biden.

“In text messages with POLITICO, Democrats expressed confusion and concern as they watched the first minutes of the event. One former Biden White House and campaign aide called it ‘terrible,’ adding that they have had to ask themselves over and over
Yeah, and I read somewhere also though I didn’t verify that apparently any other potential presidential candidate replacement is at least currently polling worse than Biden against Trump
I believe that it’s very likely Brandon was helped by a TelePromPTer-like visual technology and a micro-IFB earpiece.
There’s no question that FJB got a boost from both, separately, but—be careful what you wish for—it’s like the standard metaphor: it’s “two steps forward and three steps back.”
The beyond-unusual eye stares, sans blinking and without visible pupil movement made Joe appear to be a stereotypical alien. Perhaps he was channeling his inner serpent.
Brandon’s speech patter often seemed to be driven by his audio feed, where normal human speech for this type of situation—and as we saw with PDJT—was a coordinated mental, oral and bodily engagement. When Joe’s mouth couldn’t keep up, his words would jumble, become run-on and spoonerism-filled.
What was overriding for me was in the “three steps back,” that came as as Rorschach splat, is FJB’s bottom-line inauthenticity. His presentation was not believably coming from the slab of meet positioned in front of the cameras.
People innately sense how humans think and speak of their own accord and Joe made his output a series of pratfalls. Often it would be very clear that one wasn’t seeing someone form a thought a second or so ahead of his mouth’s coming out with the words for that common thought. It truly was as if he was an automaton trained to repeat what was fed into his earpiece. That direct connect then spewed the (very occasionally impressive word sounds without the thoughts represented animating his eyes, countenance, head or body.
Then ol’ Joe would several times lock up when his mouth simply couldn’t keep up with the remote coach. The freeze-ups completely canceled out the occasional serendipitous, “Not too bad for an octogenarian!”
I believe non-CNN personnel were kept out of the debate hall so there would be no chance any Trump supporter would be able to use any jamming equipment on either of Joe’s tech enhancements.
True. The only alternative is for the replacement candidate to actually criticize Biden’s policies as implemented by his Administration. Leftist tears will taste so much sweeter this time.
just FYI every other Democratic possibility polls WORSE than Biden.
I like the idea! Trump should just start treating RFK as if he’s the major opponent, and have a debate between the two of them.
Agree.
There will be no effort to replace Biden until some polling is done.
Not polling into who won the debate. Polling about presidential preference.
If Biden loses only a point or two, he’s not being replaced. The head cold story was an excellent piece of damage control by his staff.

I think at this point they are worried about the down party ticket (Congress state and local elections)
They give up on the presidency
Its the McCain moment where his campaign hurts the GOP as a whole (Mitt’s didn’t do that)
Which shows you intent. They had to let Biden destroy himself tonight.
It's the first time in a long while that the moderators didn't try to "fact check". They just lobbed questions and let Biden go down on a sinking ship.
I read they took separate flights and motorcades.
