Joe Biden just stuck up his middle finger and told Americans everywhere: Screw you.
In a taped interview that lasted only 22 minutes, the President insisted his dire poll numbers weren't real — 'fake news', if you will — that the Democratic party has no concerns about his fitness to lead, and that the only way he would exit the race is 'if the Lord Almighty comes down and tells me'.
What — Barack Obama isn't close enough?
If Americans had a shred of sympathy for Biden after last week's CNN debate — if they felt that perhaps he didn't know how dire his condition was, that likely his family were keeping him in the race for their own purposes — well, Joe took that notion into the public square and shot it dead.
This interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos, meant to be damage control, has only further enraged Democrat politicians and big donors who, since that calamitous Trump debate, have pressed the President to step aside.
Make no mistake: Joe Biden, for all his hackneyed talk about 'battling for the soul of America', cares not one whit for that.
He cares about staying in power. Full stop.
Biden may or may not be lying to himself, but he's for damn sure lying to the American people when he says all is well.
Stephanopoulos: Did you ever watch the debate afterwards?
Biden: I don't think I did, no.
I don't think I did?
That debate is seared into the frontal lobes of everyone who saw it. Biden's performance is a national trauma, enough for his cheerleaders at MSNBC and the New York Times to finally express grave alarm and call for him to step aside immediately.

“The Biden family must stay in power to protect themselves and their enablers from prosecution.”
biden can easily issue blanket pardons for all past, current, and future crimes deriving from the past for himself and his entire crime family minutes before he abdicates ... i fully expect that to happen ...
Joe has destroyed everything he touches. Including himself.
“Out of power, the whole family goes to jail”

i should have said all *Federal* crimes regarding the President’s pardon power ...
“If he drops out, I feel sure Trump loses.”

I get your points but a lot of people are very frustrated with Biden. Inflation is impacting everyone, the Democrat lawfare is making Trump a sympathetic (if not symbolic) figure, and people are simply tired of our involvement in endless wars. I would bet that Biden’s polling numbers are much worse than what is being reported. But the bigger problem for the Democrats is that they have nothing positive to offer the American people. And their embrace of radicalism is really starting to hurt the party. A younger candidate may have some appeal, but the party’s baggage will weigh heavily on them. JMHO
Let’s go Brandon
I try not to be negative.
I DO, however, see that we sometimes want to deny realities. I keep remembering 2022...the big red trickle.
I feel there will be a lot of people who vote for youth first.
Sleepy is getting mixed messages both from supporters and detractors. When some DemoRat Governors voice their support for him it’s less incentive for Sleepy to drop out. Oh the delicious duplicitous irony. Gotta love it.
