    People need a reality check on Biden’s senility. Some of us saw it earlier than others who continued to live in a silo. I am willing to vote for Joe but I also knew he’s a liability with no strength versus Trump under these circumstances.

    And we both had options and have options right now. Convention is 8 weeks away. Democrats can still jump ship and I can think of 6 alternative, younger, more charismatic candidates to win this stupid fucking popularity contest with ease.

      People need a reality check on their reality checks. Biden has been living with a stutter since he was young - it has nothing to do with age or senility. Those high-pressure, fast-paced debates just aren’t a good platform to measure people up unless they’re a showman. I feel confident in my own opinions, but I still freeze up in fast-paced debates where I can’t look things up.

        Haha this is some serious copium bullshit. Stutters don’t cause you to jump from abortion to immigration stories mid-sentence.

        And if you want proof of that, go watch VP Biden debate Paul Ryan. After you do that, re-watch last night and tell me that’s his stutter.

        Biden isn’t a new inexperienced politician. People like you have been telling me that Biden’s experience should prepare him to have debates like this, which should ve even easier when lacking an audience. Shit it wasn’t even as good as his 2020 debates.
