Noise about Biden's decline existed in 2020 too. It's become far more obvious that he's running out of bandwidth/stamina.

No, not at all.  Biden was very stupid in publicly proving to everyone his true condition.  Not that our enemies didn't already know.  But you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. The fall of Taiwan has just become a little bit more imminent.

My first impression was that Biden's performance was far better than my expectations for the debate and stated so.

I am truly dumbfounded by how many people are shocked and surprised about Biden's actual condition.  

Can't blame what we saw on "deep fakes" this time.

Perhaps some of the anxiety will be relieved now that the reality of the state of things has finally been revealed, on all sides.  What is amazing is how many people were actually surprised by the inescapable reality.  The curtains have been torn down and all is laid bare and obvious to all and especially the rest of the world.

Forget the old jokes, foreign policy was the real debate horror
Two major wars and not a serious or even coherent conversation to be had — we may be in trouble


If it all weren't so tragic it might be comical, but outside the envelope already brimming with dire warning the very ether is saturated with a state of dead reckoning. It is incumbent upon us, apologism notwithstanding. It's truly disheartening; all the ultimately pointless divisiveness and mental, emotional, and intellectual affray.

Trump doesn't need anyone to run the place... he knows everything and keeps track of every detail (unless he's on trial for something illegal... then it's crazy to expect him to know what everyone is doing with checks he signed).


Or is playing golf, watching Fox while high on McD, and sleeping late.
