Right? And sure the debate wasn't good but it was also better after the first 10 minutes. And now the media is all over Biden and again amplifying trump. The Dems are infighting while Putin and xi put their feet up and laugh.

If you watch through the debate, you can -hear- him shit himself when Biden’s mic is muted, and like..

Look, I’m not going to body shame, and old people deal with problems of that nature sometimes. That’s cool. It happens.

But like.. given the options, I’d rather have a president who is -usually- together and with it.. than someone so accustomed to shitting themselves they can do so mid-sentence, televised, and think nothing of it. That is not a good look internationally. Literally all the other shit he spews aside.

This video, start it at 1:16:00. It happens around 1:16:25, right about when he says “tremendous”, but the context is fun.

Thanks for posting that! I have no idea how to do that :)

Sorry, but I can't see it. What are the signs?

[–] ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No signs, you hear it. It’s audible.

I had to hold up the speaker to my ear, but I heard it now. Unholy crap.

Yeaaah.. no mistaking that for anything else.

Fwiw, I did not find that myself, but I do think it’s important to pass on. We all need to know what’s being glossed over here.

Seriously. Seems like they had pre-written attacks on Biden to push as soon as it was over. Media elites appear to strongly favor Trump.
