[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love Joe Biden and think he’s a great president, and I also trust him to do the right thing for the country, like he has always done.  He’ll probably endorse Harris shortly.  We can’t do this for weeks, we don’t have weeks, and unless he’s prepared to get out on the trail and work like a much younger man, he can’t recover from all of this.  I expected a much more aggressive posture this week after the debate, didn’t get it. Maybe he knows he’s not up for it.[/quote]

Because the dirty secret, which is obvious to people who aren't hardcore partisans, is that Joe Biden is not terribly bright and has a big ego. Second to last place in his law school class, he was a third rate senator from a safe seat who lucked into the VP slot because Obama wanted a court jester who'd always make him look good by comparison (never forget what Obama said about Biden). Biden has a long history of boastful lies and making up stories about himself and his accomplishments. He certainly has an ego. People who hunger for the throne don't make it without an ego. And once you have the power, it's devilishly hard to give it up. All the media talk about how he's as sharp as tack are blatantly lies as we now know.

Then add to it that his family must be terrified of the prospects of a Trump DOJ getting investigative powers.

I don't know what he will do or what the Democrats will do. But no one is coming out smelling of roses, either the party or Biden, and the election is pretty much lost now. You don't lie to the American public for years like this and get away with it.

Oh for heaven’s sake, what is it “with lying for years”?  Biden is clearly aging, but it is probably fairly recently that he declined this precipitously. Aging is not a straight line. It is declines and plateaus.

Biden exaggerates but he cannot begin to compete with Trump in terms of lying. So why not hold Trump accountable for his lying to the American public for years?[/quote]

Biden lies about consequential things.  And, he has for years.  That is what sunk his first presidential run years ago - he lied and plagiarized.  And, was caught because back then the media did their jobs.  
Biden has told some whoppers during his presidency.  The one that makes me the angriest is saying that all Americans would be out of Afghanistan before removing the troops.  Pretty consequential.  [/quote]
