At this point it's generally agreed in all but the most loyal of Biden superfan circles that the president lost Thursday night's debate, and badly.
Let’s say it right now: Donald Trump might have won the 2024 election tonight. You’d think President Joe Biden would have at least a good performance for one-third or even two-thirds of the debate. That never happened. Biden was incapable of delivering cogent and coherent remarks about the cornerstones of his presidency. He was incapable of defending what little legislative wins he clinched during his first term and was lost trying to pivot and deflect from the pointed attacks from Donald Trump.
Now the excuses will start to pour in.
The lefty loyalists will blame it on Biden having a cold:
TWITTER-X POSTS AT Link...........
Oh, sure, sure!
Meanwhile, even lefties like MSNBC's Joy Reid are sounding the Democrat alarm.
On CNN, the cable net that hosted the debate, host Erin Burnett was surprised that Biden performed so badly even though he knew what was coming:
Actually, we wouldn't be shocked if Biden knew exactly what was going to be thrown his way, and he still blew it.
That wouldn't be a shocker.
That's totally open to interpretation (cue massive eye roll).
Yes, but he had “a cold”.
Joe proved beyond a doubt he is not mentally competent to be POTUS.
It is 25th Amendment time. America’s enemies are watching.
It’s been widely speculated that while CNN gave him the questions in advance - they threw a curve ball and posed entirely different questions. Question Biden had not prepped for.
Why? Due to orders from on high - Biden must go.
In late JUNE?...........
Biden’s mind is too far gone for any medication to help and the debate prep at Camp David accomplished nothing but to confuse him more. He was overwhelmed.
Yeah but Kamala, who is in the on-deck circle has the intellect of a grapefruit.

If he had a cold why didn’t he say something at the start and what were they doing at the Waffle House afterwords exposing everyone?
What ‘cornerstones’ of his presidency?
His Border security?
Oil independence?
Low crime?
If our enemies fail to take advantage of our having what KJU correctly called “a dotard” in charge, that proves they are as afraid of Kamala Harris as we are
Dementia Joe must go, new DNC rallying cry
He’s been outed as a walking cadaver
I don’t think so. I believe they gave him the questions but l don’t believe they switched them. It would have been much worse if they had.
Yesterday she was singing Biden’s praises today virulent Trump hater McCaskill threw in the towel.
“Joe Biden had one thing he had to do tonight and he didn’t do it,” former senator Claire McCaskill said. “He had one thing he had to accomplish, and that was reassure America that he was up to the job at his age, and he failed at that tonight.”
McCaskill on MSNBC: “I’m not the only one whose heart is breaking right now. There’s a lot of people who watched this tonight and felt terribly for Joe Biden. And you know, you have to ask, how did we get here?”
“I don’t know how the rest of the story is written,” she said. “I don’t know if things can be done to fix this. They might, and Trump is so terrible that this might heal itself,
but based on what I’m hearing from a lot of people... there is a lot more than handwringing tonight.”
McCaskill signaled that she’s been hearing from “a lot of people,” including those in “high elective offices,” i.e. Democratic senators. “I do think people feel like we are confronting a crisis,” she said, citing “glaring weaknesses in our president” that viewers saw tonight.
What did those close to Biden think was going to happen?
Democrats are throwing Joe under the bus.
Rehearsed, rehearsed and rehearsed
And still fumbled....
In a twist on an old tale: ‘The Emperors New Cold’
“Due to orders from on high - Biden must go.”
Jill has dirt. On high will have to “JFK” Joe AND Jill for Joe to go. The convention is going to be fun to watch.
I’ve thought that Joe Biden was set up for a debate he was expected to fail before the convention so that he could be forced to step down. With more thought, maybe that was the plan all along. Have him run so that you don’t have contested primaries, then set him to fail in a debate so that you have the excuse to have him step down and the democrat voters are in agreement. Those running the DNC select their preferred candidate with no input from the voting public. Joe announces that he has decided not to run, pledges his delegates to the selected candidate, collects his payday, pardons Hunter, and can retire.
Remember, people, this isn’t JUST about the huge Biden debate flopola.
It’s about taking down any and all remnants of support for him.
It’s also about
<><>Biden’s horrendous past present and future policies
<><>Biden’s WH tax-paid aiders and abettors
<><>jailbird Hunter Biden’s dim future
<><>drJill’s backseat activities
<><>Biden’s Hollyweirdos
<><>down ballot Demorats in total jeopardy tarred w/ the Biden flop
<><>the credibility of mornin joe, Maddow, the hags on the view, joy reid,
<><>in sum.....all the Dem worshippers
Except he was prepared as well as possible for all the questions—as his and Jill’s reactions confirmed.
