Uniting to crush Bernie and ostracizing an entire generation against the Dems just to have 4 years of demented rule that worsens material conditions, chat is this good

Why is everything now a CRM or CMS? I just want a note taking app or a money tracking app, I do not need everything to be a shitty all in one

If he is in a familiar environment with his safe person (Jill) during the mid-day, he's probably okay for basic talking points. Outside of those parameters, well you get what we saw before.

He was already a mess in the 2019 debates, jumbling words and misspeaking and randomly apologizing, but it's clearly progressed rapidly since then or is at least much harder to hide.

Edit: lmao he-admit-it

extremely normal for two former presidents to come out of retirement to say "hey actually everything is okay" after a debate performance

Pretty brutal article too

When a candidate biffs, it’s expected that a loyal aide will take the fall. And few have more experience in throwing people under the bus than Joe Biden. When his first campaign imploded over the summer of 1987, a young aide and future Democratic National Committee Chairman named David Wilhelm took the blame for passing along a British Labor Leader’s speeches that Biden cribbed on a debate stage. When his third bid for the job finished in fourth place in lead-off Iowa, Biden removed his longtime aide and campaign manager Greg Schultz as the entourage slowly navigated icy New Hampshire roads on the way to a debate site. With the never-ending investigations about his son’s involvement with dodgy business partners, Biden blamed his staff for not flagging the potential conflicts of interest sooner. And when classified documents were recovered in his personal possession, it was again the help’s fault.

Biden went to work delivering [his] vision on Friday in North Carolina, telling his crowd he understood the panic inside the party and then firmly rejecting it. “Folks, let me close with this: I know I’m not a young man, to state the obvious,” Biden deadpanned in Raleigh as he launched into a mea culpa donors were demanding and strategists were hoping he understood. “I don’t debate as well as I used to. I know what I do know: I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong. I know how to do this job. I know how to get things done. I know what millions of Americans know: when you get knocked down, you get back up.”

True, Biden has been knocked down plenty in his career, but sometimes it's best to stay on the canvas. “Folks, I give my word as a Biden: I would not be running again if I didn’t believe with all my heart and soul I can do this job,” he said. For many Democrats who watched the debate, the problem is that what Biden believes is starting to look more and more at odds with reality.
