Stick a fork in Joe Biden. He's done.
After the recent turmoil his party went through after the debate, which significantly damaged his candidacy and prompted calls for him to drop out, Democratic strategists who spoke with NBC News on Sunday say that now the failed assassination attempt on Donald Trump most certainly was the true end of his hopes of getting reelected.
"We're so beyond f---ed," lamented a longtime Democratic insider, emphasizing that the image of Trump thrusting his fist in the air, blood dramatically smeared across his face, will be an unforgettable image between now and Election Day.
"The presidential contest ended last night," said another veteran Democratic consultant, who spoke with the network anonymously to offer an honest assessment of the party's position in the wake of Saturday night's tragic events, which also resulted in the death of one rally attendee and seriously wounded two others.
"Now it's time to focus on keeping the Senate and trying to pick up the House," he added. "The only silver lining for Democrats is that we're no longer talking about Joe Biden's age today."
A Biden campaign spokesperson pointed to the president's Monday interview with NBC Nightly News host Lester Holt, along with his primetime speech scheduled for Sunday night, saying he would give "a forceful and needed address to update the nation on the horrifying attack on Donald Trump and the need for every American to come together to not just condemn, but put to an end political violence in this country once and for all.""Following the president’s interview Monday evening, both the DNC and the campaign will continue drawing the contrast between our positive vision for the future and Trump and Republicans’ backwards-looking agenda over the course of the week," the campaign official said.

Be careful with this type of thinking, boys and girls. If you remember in 2016 Hillary thought the same way about this point in the race and look how it turned out. Guess I’m just trying to say let’s not let off the gas until after the election.
Absolutely. We must act and work as if we’re 5 - 10 points behind to overcome the margin of fraud + 11+ million new illegals this time around
I agree, the demonrats are toast no matter who they run. It’s not the nominee, it’s the party.
If someone's into a stringy, chicken-wing or a woman like Jill they can just go to a buffet and stare at chicken under the heat lamps.
People inherently want that type of leader. Fearless, determined and defiant. He's no coward and proved it to everyone.
His immediate reaction was exactly the opposite of what the left desired (since he survived, much to their despair), which was a cowering and terrified man who should have fled and hidden amongst his security.
No, President Trump displayed that dreaded “Toxic Masculinity” that the left fervently abhors. This demoralized the left and knocked them off of their narrative, but they're desperately attempting to regain it.
Doesn't matter who the dems run, this has now been decided. Stick a fork in them.
“Trump and Republicans’ backwards-looking agenda over the course of the next week..”
You mean backwards like $2.00 a gallon gas and .89 a dozen eggs? Backwards like no wars? That kind of backwards?
L
“Who knows if he even sighted his scope in?”
The TMZ photo of him before being eliminated was a bit fuzzy, but it looked like the shit bird was working with iron sites?? Otherwise possibly we would have a hot war right about now.
The Democrats have the PROJECT 2025 talking point going against the Republican Party. They are on a 24/7 mission with this talking point. This assassination attempt is PROJECT 2024 for the Democrat Party!! They want to take out President Trump through ANY MEANS POSSIBLE! Project 2024 is to enlist every media outlet to line up in unison with the Democrat Party talking points. Any person that is willing to assassinate political opponents of Democrats needs to step up to the plate. That is PROJECT 2024! You just witnessed it in action! SPREAD THE WORD!
GOP needs to start the message that “the only way to beat Trump now is to cheat” and keep hammering it until election day.
Yesterday’s event was two-fer failure for the Deep State.
They didn’t get rid of Trump, just put him up there with Teddy Roosevelt for presidents who took a bullet and kept on fighting.
Secondly, it bought Joe a week or so from the attacks from his own party and the media.
The clock is ticking on replacing Joe, at some point there is not enough time to replace him and get another name on the ballot.
Wrong. They’re gonna try it again
“Meaningless detail, he missed is what matters.”
Ohhhhhh.... he didn’t miss as he grazed Trumps ear but only because Trump turned his head. Otherwise, he would have severely if not mortally wounded Trump. By the grace of God comes to my mind.
>Law enforcement might check the scope, I suppose...
I read that he was using iron sights. No scope.
It’s time for Old Yeller Biden to get quarantined.
Excellent response!
1. People nowadays have a 10 minute attention span.
2. MSM will do everything in their power to bury this like a Las Vegas massacre -or- twist the narrative like Gumby to reshape it to the ever-increasing brain-fornicated masses.
Lawfare/Assassination...tests of OUR resolve or tests of OUR apathy.
...things the cabal need to know...before moving forward.
Would-be Trump assassin tried to join high school shooting club, was rejected for being ‘comically bad’ shot
What happens if Biden is linked to the assassination attempt?
And I’m somewhat certain that link exists somewhere.
That is what I'm thinking.
No need to burn someone that is on the bench; just let Biden plod to defeat.
For one thing, the assassination attempt makes current dem strategy untenable. They can't continue with their hate strategy - Trump is Hitler; stop him at any price; Trump is a violent threat, etc.
Dems have to give up their hate card but they can't switch to a policy debate strategy because they can't win on issues.
Dems can only attempt to minimize losses down ballot and come back in four years.
In terms of eternity, four years is not much time for Satan.
there is always the “sensible gun control” angle (and diversion).
