Especially someone with the kind of stutter that disappears for 40 years and then comes back when he's debating and campaigning. That's a very very special kind of stutter. One could almost say it is.......unbelievable?

Reminds me of the SNL many years ago when they discussed the JFK magic bullet theory. After exiting Gov. Connally's (leg?), they claimed the bullet lay dormant for 18 years, and then reemerged to hit Pope JPII.

I can't believe you all actually claim to be college graduates. Frightening.

And yes, I think that under stress like last night, Biden has trouble getting his thoughts out. Which is a lot better than a string of lies that never answered a question from the other guy.

Haha, ok Paul. Lies like 15% UE, endorsement of the Border Patrol, Charlottesville, no soldiers died on my watch and that’s just off the top of my head. Just about every answer that was understandable by Biden was a lie. Give it a rest.

Oh, Obama didn’t endorse Joe in the Dem primary. Guess he’s unfit for office, right?

The Chevron case is a much bigger ruling. I’ll let you look that one up and make your own conclusions.

I like it on its own, but it’s always the ramifications of it that will be felt years from now that we just don’t know right now. But like I said limiting the power of federal agencies in a lot of cases is probably a good thing.

Just saying in ‘84, doubt many saw the problems that would arise from such a decision.

"There's a take on this debate I've heard from a lot of folks on the right, that is tempting and understandable, but completely wrong-- one that says that the Democrats knew Biden would bomb this badly and scheduled the debate early so they could move him out of the way.

Nonsense.

Most of the people closest to Biden who would have been making these decisions are Dem apparatchiks, but more specifically, they are Biden apparatchiks. They wouldn't enjoy anywhere near the same power and access with his successor. For better or worse, their fates are tied to Biden specifically.

They had the debate early because they knew that while Biden was not in great shape, they had drunk the Kool-Aid and convinced themselves, at least to some degree, of the lies they have been telling for years to the American people about his mental state.

They thought that if they worked with the most favorable rules, on the most favorable network with the most favorable moderators, and gave Biden a full week to prep, they would be able to get through it and even if they didn't "win" it would be far enough from the election that voters would ignore a mediocre performance.

They were not counting on what a disaster it would be to have Biden fully unmasked 1:1 vs. a competent and energetic opponent.

Yes, Biden's performance was such a disaster that it's tempting to think "this was all planned" but that's only if you ignore the levels of self-deception, lying and magical thinking that have dominated the Democrat party for years now.

That's what was exposed on the debate stage last night."

No, other way around. Some on here read this stuff and just regurgitate it. The same when you get your panties all in a bunch when people on here repeat your scary “msm propaganda.”

I agree the debate was a disaster, but the alternative is a guy who lies as soon as he opens his mouth. trump would have flunked the cognitive test: the first question is "who is the current president of the United States"

There have been so many Left wing lies exposed over the past week (some of which you spew here) that it is hard to keep up.

Most of what you say Trump has lied about was actually true. Many have provided examples in this thread.

Biden introduces Kamala as the POTUS from time to time so your last comment is hilarious, to me and many, many others who aren’t in the Q cult of the Left.

Agree on it being a good thing. Congress will actually have to write clear laws and not massive budgets/packages for the technocrats to play with. Should bring accountability to Congress. Sigh, I can dream. :)

Not to spoil the fun however N. Korea is sending troops to fight with the Russians.

81M votes…

Vlad wants and needs the Black Sea. It’s the only warm weather waterway for exports to the West.

Thanks Biden for enabling this by effectively shutting down LNG in the US.
