Opinion - The words about Joe Biden I never wanted to write
Washington Post ^ | July 7, 2024 at 3:31 p.m. EDT | E.J. Dionne Jr.

It’s hard to acknowledge that those who worried about Biden’s age may have been right all along.

Two moments in President Biden’s ABC News interview with George Stephanopoulos on Friday are likely to be remembered as the dealbreakers that provoked an open rebellion against his candidacy. As important, they were also moments when many among the president’s strongest supporters began to lose heart.

Stephanopoulos asked the exactly appropriate question near the end of their conversation: “If you stay in and Trump is elected and everything you’re warning about comes to pass, how will you feel in January?”

There were many right responses this question, the obvious being something like: “If I didn’t believe with all my heart that I will beat Trump, I wouldn’t stay in this race.”

Instead, Biden offered what was close to the worst possible reaction, and not because of the slightly fractured syntax: “I’ll feel as long as I gave it my all and I did the good as job as I know I can do, that’s what this is about.”...

Not only were the Democrat establishment professing in strict unison that behind closed doors Biden was, “sharp as a tac” they had also begun to attack Trump as being old, just like Biden. They were, again in unison, trying equivocate that both Biden and Trump were old so it didn’t matter. You, know a variation of the standard Dem tactic... every does it.

BREAKING: Comer Calls on Biden’s Physician to Testify
WRT His Involvement in Biden’s Shady Business Dealings —
$200,000 Payment Under Scrutiny may have influenced diagnosis
The Gateway Pundit ^ | July 7, 2024 | Jim Hoft

The Comer House committee is investigating if Dr. Kevin O’Connor’s involvement in the Biden family’s financial activities influenced his medical assessments of Joe Biden.

In light of recent concerns surrounding Joe Biden’s health, House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) is calling on President Biden’s physician, Dr. Kevin O’Connor, to testify about his medical assessments of Joe Biden and his private business dealings with the Biden family. Dr. O’Connor has been Biden’s official physician since he took office in January 2021 and is in daily contact with Biden. Biden’s poor health has been particularly scrutinized ever since Special Counsel Robert Hur released a damning evaluation in his report on Biden’s stolen classified documents investigation earlier this month. He described Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory” after hours of questioning.

Dr. Kevin O’Connor was responsible for “evaluating” the 81-year-old. But instead of conducting a truly independent and honest examination, O’Connor decided to gaslight the public in his written letter announcing the results earlier this year. O’Connor concluded, despite Biden’s obvious physical struggles, he is “fit for duty and fully executes all of his responsibilities without any exemptions or accommodations.” The doctor proclaimed that Biden “Feels well, and this year’s physical identifies no new concerns.” O’Connor also said this year’s physical included consultation with several Presidential Specialty Consultants who “concurred” with his findings.

Yes! 2019 Biden was speaking gibberish and challenging Voters to push-up Contests!

He was crazy in 2019 and 2020

Donald Trump’s threat to democracy is the overriding question before the country — and the centerpiece of the president’s case for reelection.

This again. You'd figure somebody would have called them on this - what "threat to democracy" does a citizen running for office represent? Exactly? Could you be specific?

“I’ll feel as long as I gave it my all and I did the good as job as I know I can do, that’s what this is about.”

Democrats don't want to hear that. They think like Gordon Gekko: "I bet on sure things."

“Threat to democracy” garbage is based on the J6 “insurrection” mythos.

Leftists just pile lies on top of lies on top of lies—and then keep repeating them endlessly.

Once you figure out that everything they say is a lie life is good—you can live long and prosper.

They ALL knew.

They’re ALL complicit, in their little, circling wagons.

Dearest Joe,

I pray this epistle finds you and your family well and good.

It brings me sorrow to say, but I have found another.

His/Her name is “Nunuf The’Bov.”

I hope and pray that someday you can find joy and respite in the arms of another Home Healthcare Nurse.

Your Faithful Caregiver,

The Democratic National Committee

P.S. enclosed please find photos and details of a nearby Brownie Troop...

Biden actually answered the question he was asked. Dionne is upset that Biden didn’t dodge the question.

Writing more in sorrow than in anger. You’d need to have a heart of stone not to laugh.
