Well the headline isn’t factually wrong, and no, 99% of any one actually watched the debate.

The headline was possible because of Biden. And honestly, this wasn’t even his worst mistake of the press conference.

That god-awful final answer… It was basically him saying he’s too arrogant to step down in time for us to get a candidate into place that can win. He’s losing in the polling now and refuses to acknowledge it.

I had him slightly in the W column prior to that final answer. He went back into the L column with that final answer.

The final answer had me screaming… “What?!? No one is telling you that it isn’t likely you’ll beat Trump?” He’s like… Well, if the polls show me in the negative… Someone needs to show him the polls.

Which is like, emblematic of THE ENTIRE FUCKING PROBLEM WITH BOTH BIDEN AND ALL DEMOCRATS!!!

A complete and utter detachment from reality. Like, JOE. You are fucking losing this election for everyone. And the fact that he doesn’t know or acknowledge it…

On the flip side I got ten emails from Democrats yesterday telling me that our entire country stands on a precipice and the whole thing pretty much rides on me making a donation.

So you know, they’re showing some urgency on that side of it.

It is a factually wrong headline.

Another banger was “I have a higher approval rate in Israel than here”

Oh fuck I forgot about that one.

Yes. You are very popular in a country which has become a global pariah and is why you have effectively lost support entirely with any one under the age of 30.

It’s almost like he’s torpedoing his campaign on purpose. Optics wouldn’t be as important if the US had mandatory voting, meaning even alienated voters would either vote Biden or Third Party more often than the Trump crowd, but he’s killing voter interest in general.

2024 will be 2016 - 2.

So who are people under 30 supporting? Trump? Not voting or some third candidate also is a vote for Trump.
