Huh? Joe is a lot of things but considerate of others he has never been. He is very self centered, even for a politician.
LOL who even are you? Did you just emerge from decades in a bunker and just receive a few minutes of Biden video? Have you not seen Trump? Next to that raging narcissistic socioopath that is Donald Trump, Joe is practically Mother Theresa.
Trump and Biden can both be rotten eggs at the same time.
But re Joe: ever see the Washingtonian piece on him from 1974? Total freak. I didn’t call him an “egomaniacal autocrat,” his former staffer did. I also didn’t call him a jackass, Senator Kennedy called him that to my face.
Sorry. We have two pretty bad people we have to select from.
Huh? So we gotta go back to some rando article from 50 years ago to make the case about Biden's ego? That's some bottom-of-the-barrel desperation bruh.

It means the coming week will be complete chaos. Intense maneuvering and palace intrigue is afoot. An historic party schism is threatening to erupt.
I smell panic.
The coming weeks will be the subject of one hundred books.
Agreed. He did better than I expected, but was still pretty bad. I imagine it’s good enough to give ammunition to the folks wanting to keep him in, but not good enough to bring back viewers who were distressed by his debate performance.
Another agreement. He did well enough to stave off the sharpening knives headed in his direction. For now. No one is impressed or reassured by the interview except the most delusional partisans but he did just well enough to perpetuate the awkward state of affairs. And it's not going to lead to victory in November either. The interview wasn't live, wasn't prime time, was filmed during his working daylight hours. This isn't letting Biden loose at a press conference or a college auditorium taking unscripted questions from the audience the way presidential candidates typically do. Nor does it answer any of the questions everyone is asking. What is he really like behind doors?
The Democrats don't have much time to save 2024. Each day that passes the harder it becomes. But the election is already starting to turn into an inevitable narrative that everyone will start believing in - one of Joe Biden's cognitive decline hidden from the public as far back as 2020 and enabled by the untrustworthy press and a corrupt Democratic party - a narrative that leads to Trump's election in November.

He needs to answer unscripted questions at a press conference or town hall after 8pm, and more than once. Reading a teleprompter at a rally proves nothing.

It's not Parkinson's - it's Alzheimer's.
Will we ever know? George asked him at least three times if he would submit to a neurological test, and he demurred each time. "Every day is a neurological test."
Well Trump isn’t doing one either.

I did not see a person who portrays the optics of a US President. I wanted to but I just did not see it.
