***Official Political Discussion Thread***

He actually thinks an 80+ year old losing a bit of pep in their step is a groundbreaking occurrence

Bless his heart

FDR was disabled and literally wheelchair bound He still managed. Diagnosed with polio at 39 and still served 6 more years

You are arguing with the people in this thread like we are the ones you need to convince. I would imagine that everyone in this thread is voting for Joe regardless of if he is dead or alive.

I totally agree with you regarding FDR. Reagan had dementia during his second term but they were able to hide it much more easily in the pre-internet, pre-social media, pre cable news era. Also it was Reagan's second term so he didn't have to campaign anymore.

All of that being said, the people you need to concern are normal Americans who have seen Biden falter and our sensitive to it. You can say that Joe's physical / mental health stumbles are not important but it's important to the people casting votes and that's all that matters.

Which is exactly what he should be doing. This is what normal interest rates should be during expansionary times.

Again, I agree

The bar is not "sound good in a debate"

The bar is "not be in severe age related cognitive decline"

Brother …. You have no proof of that but you keep bringing it up and making it worst. Before the election you’re going to escalate that he had a stroke and **** himself of stage.

You’re ignoring the entire rest of the week to try and make a point that doesn’t collaborate with anything else we seen.

im not ignoring the entire week. the entire week is a critical part of my argument, and serves as further evidence for Joe Bidens declining mental state.

The only window it would make sense for Biden to pass the baton to Harris is right at the convention and not before it.

Post the video clips of his declining mental state. Are you going to show him mixing up words, cause he’s been doing that his whole life. Where is the “he isn’t aware of his surrounding video” since you made that claim this week.

this is where we’re at. Providing second sources to dems in complete denial

I am not a “dem”

I am not even American

1. he had an entire week of the media was freaking out about his mental state and he did basically zero media for a week.
you only do that if you believe your candidate can't perform at all.

2. he finally did a radio interview with PRE SCRIPTED QUESTIONS, still messed that up.

3. Joe Biden finally does a phone interview with morning Joe, and while he had more energy still said incoherent things.


3. You have now stories leaking from democrats behind the scenes about Bidens declining mental state.

4. You have the pod save america, democratic partisan media, saying they met with Biden before the debate and he seemed diminished.

5. Biden is still keeping a super light schedule DESPITE THE FACT HE'S LOSING BY 6 POINTS AND IS A HUGE UNDERDOG.

all the actions of the campaign, and reporting indicates Biden is severely diminished and can't do enough media to stage a comeback.


the voters believed this for years and now the media has caught up.

 

[Betonblck]

Or maybe he is too busy doing his day job as President to spend time all his time on meaningless interviews.

First bro paste the whole video. Listen to this video and Biden is aware and responding throughout.

Idk how you can say he did zero media when he literally called into their show and had an interview on ABC in the last week. In fact he’s campaign a ton this week.

Quote the politicians who said these things and let me know if they are still saying it now. The party as a whole acted poorly after the debate, but to their credit eventually got their **** together.

Idk who pod save America is!

You are inferring a lot throughout this whole thing. Which is fair we all do it, but not when it comes to calling Biden “significantly diminished” you are implying he is senile, but once the terminology becomes set it would be harder to prove it. So please define that too.

Great read from Silver:

Biden has a weak hand

Democrats don't know how to spot a bluff.

You can hear him reading off a script (off video) and struggling

“But he departed on Friday as forecasts showed that Beryl was likely to hit Texas on Monday. Indeed, it made landfall along the central Texas coast early Monday, according to Fox Weather, with 70-90 mph wind gusts, a life-threatening storm surge, and blackouts that left more than 2 million residents in the dark without power.“

Start at the 45: minute mark…. He seems fully aware of his surroundings throughout the whole speech.

And used some pretty big words for a someone who people are accusing of being senile.

This Thread, Election and coverage of it feels like a Dark Mirror Episode

 

[Wargames]

Do ya’ll remember when the red wave happened? I don’t either

Seriously are the polls that are being used to paint such a negative picture of the election broke and if that is true is it a mistake or on purpose. I put nothing beyond republicans when it comes to getting power.

 

[Wargames]

Come on how is the mainstream media not pressing Trump on any of the **** he says.
