That’s weird. I thought they said it was because he had a cold.

    I don’t care about Joe Biden’s age. I care about the fact that the Democrats are obviously lying to us.

    It took days for them to come up with the “jet lag” explanation (though they instantly said it was a cold), and he hasn’t travelled internationally for two weeks. Come on, they’re lying.

    For many people, I think the shock of Biden’s debate performance was less about the shock of Biden being feeble and more about the shock of realizing that the Democrats have been lying about his feebleness for so long

      You clearly DO care as you decided to push that particular factoid out of this article.

      I don’t care what the excuses are, I don’t give a fuck about anything other than trump NOT becoming president.

      So I and you and everyone else in this fucking country with half a gob damn braincell needs to start focusing on the positives you have under Biden and start to TRULY understand how fucked you will be under Trump - especially now that the prez has carte blanch to assassinate people, apparently.

        No, the part I quoted is evidence that he’s probably lying about jetlag.

        I don’t care about Biden’s age.

          Please go check your comment and edit it then because you quoted a comment about his age.

            His age is not what is dooming American democracy. The Democrats being nothing but lies and spin and PR is what is dooming American democracy.

            They serve the same corporate interests as Trump but can’t be honest about it, so they dissemble and evade and lie like it’s a habit.

            And now some of their lies are crashing down, and they’re still just trying to spin and PR their way out of it.

        Call your Senators, Congressman, State Rep, anyone with a D in front of their name. Tell them you’ve lost confidence in Biden and want the party to pressure him into stepping down before the convention. Then we can hold a contested convention, where the delegates will probably take several rounds of voting to decide a candidate. It’s risky, but not as risky as doing nothing. It would also steal the headlines from Trump for a least a few weeks, which could build some momentum for the new candidate.

            I don’t think it’s going to steal them in a negative way. These things usually go by very quickly, and it’s unlikely to become a drawn out, bitter affair like the last few primaries have been. If Biden drops out with grace, and the candidates all agree to keep things positive, it could be a huge boon for the party. Ezra Klein covered it in depth on his podcast this week, it’s worth a listen.
