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.”...

Exactly. “Why, just a few days ago he was sharp as a tack!”

Did Biden say “the good as job” or “the goodest job”? I have seen the latter version quoted. Not sure that the first version is grammatical English.

The words about Joe Biden I never wanted to write

"Joe, I am your father."👾

I ordered the chip implants to be placed in your head during the brain surgery in February, 1988.

Fox Mulder and Dana Scully are off the air now. You have no one to turn to. No one will believe you.

It is not his age, it’s his sickness. Don’t forget his corruption and incompetence.

These people care nothing about this country, everything’s all about the democrat party to them.

Nobody cared about Biden’s age.

Senility can hit at a variety of ages.

Biden was senile in 2020.

He is senile now.

He will be senile for the rest of his life.

No matter what his “age” is.

Just remembered this explanation.

Biden is trying for the Participation Trophy.🏆

Jill: Joe, you did great. You answered ALL the questions.”🍦

(Yay)

Joe: “That’s what this is about....”

Then “Although when I took office I thought the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about. Live and learn.”

This Dionne clown should be forced into retirement. He is taking up a seat which should be occupied by a Negro.

What I don't understand is why these people keep repeating the mantra "Trump is a threat to Democracy". That is delusional. We live in a constitutional republic. President Trump is limited as to what he can do or can not do.

These pundits are grown people who childishly keep repeating the absurd statement. I don't get it.

I guess this is small point To Dionne’s readers, but...

Does anybody in D.C. care about the country?

We could be in Imperial Rome and be no more obsessed with transitory power than Biden, Stephanopolous and Dionne.

He said “goodest” and they’re still covering for him. If it appears any other way then it means they have doctored it with AI.
