Reminder for people who seem to be convinced that a deficit barely outside the margin of error in July is insurmountable

it’s less the current polling and more the “candidate cannot complete a sentence, let alone make an argument about why to elect him” everyone supporting JB before Thursday despite the polls assumed he would be able to campaign and grow his support the debate showed that’s a not a fair assumption

Here's a thread with the president's post debate appearances. You're entitled to your own opinion, but it seems rash to say this if you've not at least looked at what's happened since then.

It's not just the controlled, teleprompter events since the debates, it's his degrading performance since '20.

You mean the performance where he's presided over the most pro-labor and progressive administration in modern history? Wild.

This actually undermines your argument. Biden has had a good administration. Voters are rejecting him despite that, and their main reason is his age, not his administration’s policies. Further evidenced by the fact he’s running behind fellow members of his own party as well as the open fascists.

The reason is because the media is shouting "Biden is old" from the rooftops, probably because their corporate masters are finally being regulated/prosecuted by Biden's DOJ. We're in the middle of a right-wing propaganda spree, and you're trying to pretend like Biden's admin actions don't count.

1.) “the media” is a meaningless boogeyman. Newspapers are in freefall. Cable News median viewer is 70 years old. No podcast has more than a 5% marketshare. Most of the population completely avoids political media. 2.) *voters* have been shouting “Biden is old” for longer than the media has
Avatar
1) yeah, the media is terrified of its own irrelevance and upset that Biden refuses to hand them viewers like Trump did. 2) Voters had several options, including Dean Phillips. Voters instead chose Biden.

1) pretending “the media” is a coherent monolith with a consistent agenda indicates you have no idea what decade you are living in 2) ask those same voters who they would’ve voted for if they knew JB wouldn’t be able to complete a sentence during a debate that his own campaign orchestrated

1) they are private companies that are kept alive by ad sales, which require views and clicks. There's no conspiracy needed, Trump is controversy, and while he was in office, media viewership soared. After Biden came into office, it plummeted. Simple as.

2) Buddy, you're pretending like the first 20 minutes were the whole debate, and I'm sorry to tell you that this is not the case. Generally, folks in cognitive decline don't inexplicably get better at speaking as an event goes on, but Biden recovered and successfully got several hits against Trump.

“He only seemed obviously too old to run for president for the first 20mins of a presidential debate that his own campaign orchestrated and that 50million people watched!” is not the amazing argument for JB’s fitness that you think it is.
Avatar
Buddy, if you wanna make a claim like "Biden couldn't string together a single sentence", then don't be surprised when people pull out many, many sentences he strung together without issue I understand your relationship with the truth is tenuous at best, but I beg of you to stop helping Republicans

That is only true of like cable news and legacy newspapers. So it just confirms you are pretending to live in a different decade Most people interact with media via tiktok influencers, independent podcasters, subreddits, micro-blogging platforms, discord communities, whatsapp group chats, etc
Avatar
The outlets calling for Biden to resign/step aside are literally those who were affected by the readership/viewership drop once Biden was elected lmao what are you talking about? TikTok influencers, notoriously free from right-wing propaganda /s
Avatar
Hey buddy idk what to say if you think that legacy newspapers and cable news are going to have a larger effect on the election outcome than tiktok. WaPo has lost *50%* of its unique visitors since 2020. The median MSNBC viewer is *72 years old*.

May want to spare your energy with these guys. Trying to point out that Joe is really old and showing it (and that with all humans, this decline only gets more profound with time ) is like trying to making MAGAts see that Trump really is batshit crazy.
Avatar
Oh sorry, Teleprompter Dude, I must have forgotten how that line was used by Trump against Clinton in '16, ironically as he read it from a teleprompter.

Tell me how JB's incoherence during the debate was all about a cold.
Avatar
Buddy, I just had a bad cold a week ago that made me feel foggy as fuck, sometimes I just gave up halfway through a sentence because it just wasn't worth the energy. Are you human? Have you ever had a bad cold?
Avatar
Oh wait, my bad. Now it's jet lag. But I'm sure that would make you give up too. Right? Buddy? That's almost sad.
