President Joe Biden downplayed concerns about his presidential campaign, but a series of high-profile gaffes during the NATO summit on Thursday renewed concerns about his age and acuity.
Yes, it was embarrassing. As soon as he said it I literally winced in pain. It was bad.
But. And of course there’s a but. He even addressed later in the conference that him misspeaking should not over shadow the results he’s getting. And he’s getting results.
Man has stated he’s had speech problems loong before he ran for president. Like, still a kid in school stuttering times. He sucks with names. That’s an unfortunate fact. But why does that trump (pun intended) everything else?
Look. I love Bernie. I honestly wish he was in charge, things would be a million times better. He was popular online. And with peolle we would mainly talk to
Unfortunately that’s not most voters. And replacing Biden with someone he’s already beat shows no strength, especially when you’re replacing him because he’s old and the replacement is almost as old.
I would love to feel the Bern but that’s not possible now :(
I grew up with a stutter. I still have it if I don’t watch the pace of my speech. My uncle is the same way, but a more severe case. This is not someone with a stutter:
You sent a highlight of him talking in the past and want to compare it to him talking now like it’s a fair fight?
Look. We know he’s old. Nobody is arguing against that. Is his stuttering worse now with his age, yes. Unfortunately. But his gaffs while speaking are not going to distract me too much from what he’s actually doing
My point is that you can’t conceal his obvious senility by calling it a stutter. Yes, Trump needs to be prevented from gaining power, and were Biden to win a second term, the next four years would be better for the universe than if Trump were to win.
Regardless, it is looking exceedingly unlikely that Biden will be President on Jan 21, 2025, so he should step aside for someone who has a realistic prayer of actually being President on January 21.
Because it’s clearly more than a fucking speech impediment or random words he misspoke a few times. People have eyes. No amount of spin is going to change the reality that he’s an elderly man whose brain is slowly fucking degenerating in real time in front of our eyes.
He was right about jobs going up. He was right about strengthening NATO. He was correct about the Border being more secure. He said he wants to fight greedy corporations and scummy land lords. How is all that over looked?
Use you’re eyes to see what he’s actually saying. There was 3 or 4 gaffs after a day of talking to other world leaders on major world events. His actions speak louder than words
Is he perfect, no. Absolutely not. Still better than not only the other guy but any other alternative placed in front of us.
Absolutely agreed that he’s miles better than the alternative, and if forced to vote for him I will, but it’s not a good look for a party that markets itself as a sensible alternative to the dumpster fire that is the Republican party.
The man is clearly too old for the job and no amount of shining up the turd will make it anything other than a turd. Sure people will hold their nose and vote for it, but at the end of this whole thing, either way we’re all covered in shit. And the thing is, it doesn’t have to be that way.
If the party wanted someone diffrent they should have got someone else during the primaries. We all knew he was too old the first time. But, shockingly, he’s done a pretty alright job.
But there was still the chance to pass the torch earlier and it passed. If we fold now we old give into pressure by the Republicans. He’s doing a solid enough job. Replacing him now causes discourse withing the party and fuel their parties chants of how bad we are.
We know they already think he’s incompetent. Nothing will change that. They said he was old from the beginning. We know he’s old too. But he’s doing good.

Here’s Biden in the 2008 debate against Sarah Palin. https://youtu.be/4Hs7CptPWI4?si=ygyXTtMIiNwfAPYa
There’s no “stutter.” He’s nailing his talking points, stringing them together fluently. The Biden of today is unrecognizable.
At the same time, it’s not like Kamala is going to beat Trump. And they won’t let Bernie get the nomination.
Bro, if your answer to all this is Bernie you’re so far off in lala land there’s no point in arguing with you.
And that’s coming from someone who donated heavily to his campaign haha
Bernie was the most popular candidate in 2016 until the DNC booted him for Hillary. And Bernie is still coherent.

This is how Bernie can still win!
His speech impediment is bullshit. Where was it when he was Obama’s VP? Where was it in the Senate?
Still with him. He only had to talk like 10 times a year then though so it wasn’t as noticeable

What it is, is someone who is not dealing with senility.
