Good review and synopsis of the recent events, Daniel.
As for the in-party critics there have been a couple of recognizable names. The majority of well known Dems are mostly wishy-washy about the midrace replacement but from what I have seen from the demanding few of the 200+ House of Reps Dens I have thought “Who dat Democrat?”
The biggest problem is that many groups will have in fighting but if under siege from outside then they go full tribal in closed circle facing outward. Dems seem to continue shooting in every direction including at their own.
If Joe stands down voluntarily in a transparent way then I will back his replacement. If the powerbrokers and the meek and fearful of losing their jobs play underhanded games and force him out then I will throw the vote to Stein. Let them know that I showed up but no matter how severe the threat from the RWNJs I am not going to reward another form of disloyalty and corruption.
As for Joe’s “cognitive problems” and questionable memory on one night the fault lies with his staff and his campaign team. They are supposed to be planning, anticipating, preventing, defending and honestly explaining. The only truthful thing that the Fat Orange Clown said at the debate was that Joe never fires anyone. He keeps a close circle who have become another group who do not want to lose their jobs and probably believe they are The President. Those geniuses set him up to fail by not including eight hours of Executive Time like the FOCer had every day.
BTW, my spouse and I took a few overseas trips in our 50’s, 60’s and early 70’s. The longer the trip time and the more time zones crossed then the more recovery time need. Of course we were not constantly reading briefings, taking calls, and having high level meetings while trying to remember names, faces, places and key discussions.
A couple of Joe’s supporters get it. The FOCer is being given a free ride because they no longer see his continual lies, rants, whines for retribution and clearly expressed intent to undermine our Democracy (including removal of the Department of Education and severe cuts to Medicare) as newsworthy. Perhaps they think they will survive if he does get back into power as the money-power right’s puppet.
So in closing F The NY Times, the disloyal Dems and “influencer celebrities”, the liberal big donors withholding support, the ethnic groups who will “sit this one out” because they believe Joe did not do enough (good luck with the alternative), and the talking heads on CNN and MSNBC who came on air one minute after the news conference and claimed that it was “proof he has to step down”.
BIDEN/HARRIS in 2024.
IF YOU CANNOT VOTE FOR BIDEN/HARRIS in 2024 THEN VOTE AGAINST FASCISM AND THE END OF DEMOCRACY AS WE NOW KNOW IT. THERE IS ONLY ONE OPTION TO SHUT DOWN FASCISM….FOR NOW.
Rally Guy, you have nailed it, my friend. I fully concur with David. You didn’t miss a damn thing. Screw these 17. If they don’t like the way it’s being done, they need to go. They are out for themselves and not the people of this great nation.
I’m backing Biden/Harris. If Biden decides to step aside, I’ll back Harris to the hilt. Like Biden said last night. She’s a hell of a woman. A hell of a politician, and she has the backbone, spirit, and gumption to get this job five. If he didn’t think she could do this job, he wouldn’t have selected her as his Vice President!
We need to firmly and vocally fight for President Joe Biden and VP Kamala Harris to continue. President Biden is exactly who we needed for this term and who we need to lead our country forward with his wisdom, kind demeanor and experience. To ask his to step down is heartless and damaging
We need everyone to get in the phones to all these Democratic Congressmen and let them know they are cutting their own throats. They are giving in to Trumps wishes, and leaning this country to authoritarian tendencies by bowing to his cultist agenda.
Doing it !!! Stay positive folks Joe’s got our backs he has Kamala and his staff very prepared if something happens to him, they know how to carry on. Joe wouldn’t take his eye off the ball for American EVER.
I do believe a Blue Tsunami is coming..people have smartened up and the GOP is in desperation mode.
I did have a great laugh on this excellent post Daniel, 6 succinct adjectives in one sentence accurately describing the menace! Thanks🫶
I do wonder about ‘ a private citizen giving foreign statesmen …’ law thing …HARDLY A MENTION IN THE PRESS ? But , on the other hand several papers were cited in Heather’s Letter today having printed TFG is unfit for any office . ITS ABOUT TIME and thank you thank you thank you to them! 🙌
We all knew the flapping about the debate would hit , two weeks worth I predicted , but again nothing was mentioned in the same blabbering of TFG’s how many lies…until several days later …what 30 lies ? I believe ..the tally is somewhere around 43 THOUSAND now ! Good Lord..give me six adjectives to add there Daniel!
It’s OK to question or discuss but should also cite the exemplar accomplishments (ONGOING) stateside AND in the world mess!
I have NO DOUBT he can lead fine and his team -Harris and the rest ..WOW..it’s amazing leadership. Makes me so proud.
Let’s roll up our sleeves a little more..folks.
We’ve got an impressive bunch of Dems ready for ‘28 too, WOHOO🙌
My dearest Patricia. You have no idea how good it is to hear from you. I do so much appreciate, and await, your opinion on what I scribe. You have my head swelling!!!
To answer your question about the various adjectives for the narcissist lies? I lost count to be really honest with you. Last count I had in the 90 minutes he was averaging over 2 per minute. That means every time he opened his mouth he spit out at least 4 lies on his 2 minute time limit. Couple that with his not even answering the questions he was ask. The bum has hit off Scott free with all of that. All the chatter has been all about President Biden. His poor performance. His cognitive decline. His age. Blah. Blah. Blah!
One more thing. These Democrats that are screaming he needs to drop out and let someone rise run. They all need to go too. We have NO room in this party, no time for this type of bullshit, and the inclination to cater to a bunch of wimps that have forgotten the reason they ate there. All this bunch is out fur us their own political future, and as far as I’m concerned, they don’t have one. I don’t want a self-centered son-of-a-bitch in the party, in public office!!!

Some of this bunch have NO room to be bitching about his age! They are tapping on the door themselves. Something rise. This damn bunch needs to get in their districts and start campaigning for Biden/Harris, and themselves. Do you think the constituents will bite fir them, or President Biden, or any other Democrat who is running locally, statewide, with them fig g all this bitching?
The fact that this CONVICTED FELON was allowed to meet with dangerous right wing leader, Orban, is atrocious beyond words! Where is the press spotlighting this! DANGER-DANGER-DANGER! I want trump to give his press conference without prompts. Talk about his foreign policy plan. Biden has accomplished much and is working as we write! Those questioning his ability are being shut down. And good!
He colludes with Russia, Hungary, North Korea, the Saudis etc.y Yet followers like some of the J6 terrorists were current & former cops, firemen, vets. They need to have all retirement benefits removed. One former cop got a suspended sentence…6 months! Minimum sentences should be 5 years with no exceptions. It proves how much filth is in the ranks. What is your opinion on level of corruption as an ex-cop/ fireman? I live in Chicago and work in an alderman’s office so I hear a lot of the public’s opinions.
I’m going to be real straight with you on this. I wish I was able. I would beat them to a damn pulp. If they ever thought of disrespecting the Flag, our government, or anything else, they’d wish they were never born!
What they all need when found guilty is Lise their retirement, their certification, and a prison sentence if at least 25 years with no parole possible for 15 years minimum.
They all knew better. They allowed themselves to be sucked in by the lying rhetoric of this piece of shit! The oath each and every one of them took was to uphold the law, protect life and property, and uphold the Constitution of the United States! They broke that Oath in the worst way possible. They desecrated the Flag, the Constitution, and put our Democracy in severe jeopardy. For that they should be hung by the neck in public until dead!!!
Extremely well said!!! Let’s start airing ALL of Trump’s issues!!!
Is there enough hours in a day? I don’t think so.
What’s your thoughts on Trump challenging Biden to a damn golf game? I hope Biden dues y fall for that crap. This is a stunt of Trump’s. He’s up to something, and by the sound of his challenge, it’s taking Biden out of his element and off the political track of governing the country.
This also get me !!!! Hollywood actors making political statements. We have seen what a bad idea that was with Ronald Reagan who started all this crazy trickle down economics policy With the Republican party in the first place.
These Hollywood actors/actresses who donated to Biden did so at an event fur that purpose. To raise money for the campaign. That’s all fine and good. Beyond that, they need to keep their damn nose in Hollywood and leave the governing to the professionals. It failed for Reagan, it will fail for them.
Exactly. What happened to the “private meetings” in the Oval Office where this stuff is discussed then step outside to the barrage of cameras, news media, and microphones, and lie yiur ass off about what was discussed and how great the meeting was? We listened to that crap for the entire Trump administration.
This is what the right wing Fascist sponsored press does. Meaning we should NEVER fall for what they put out. Those with high visibility asking Biden to step down for one bad performance and numerous accomplishments, should be shamed! It is utterly irresponsible of them! Fortunately, it’s getting a lot of push-back.
Here’s a list I compiled, with their ages. Some of these folks don’t have ANY room to talk Biden down because of his age. And, I haven’t even heard of most of this list. I guess they sit back until they can bitch about something that will destroy the party!
David, you are strengthening my argument. Thank you for your input on this.
Last evening, the news conference hadn’t ended good before a Democratic congressman goes on MSNBC and says Biden needs to drop out if the race! Not 5 minutes later, it was reported 17 of the democrats on the hill are saying this!
These people need to realize they are playing right into Trump’s rhetoric. They are doing exactly what he wants them to do. Now, all the talk is on Biden, and it’s negative talk. Nothing has been reported much about the communist leader that is visiting Mar-a-Lago meeting with Trump, right after having a sit down with Putin.
One more thing about Viktor Orban. If memory serves me (which I question more often than not) didn’t Orban visit Mar-a-Lago on the evening of another event? Seems he was there around the time of the big debate. Not sure on it though.
The Democrats need to get back to backing their candidate and getting him and Vice President Harris reelected. They need to start stressing the many, many, flaws of his opponent, Trump. The rapist, convicted felon who’s still facing over 30 counts of violating the Espionage Act, has committed treason by sharing this nations most top secret documents with communist leaders and private citizens at Mar-a-Lago! They need to stress the lying Trump has done, and still doing.
If you were to chart the differences between Trump and Biden, the only negative you would have on the Biden side is his age. Guess what? Trump is only 3 years younger, but he’s showing a hell of a lot more mental decline than Biden has ever thought of showing. Like Biden said last night. He has been on a hell of a grueling schedule since before the debate. More so after the debate.
And all they can talk about is mental decline! Bullshit!
Voting Blue 1000%! I thought Biden did good overall! The naysayers can go take a leap!

Stay with Joe Vote Blue all the way!!
Preach it TweedleDee! High from the mountaintop! BLUE in ‘24, ‘26, ‘28, ‘30, all in between and beyond!
First since late last year, fella!
I appreciate you correcting me, Robert. I just wrote what the media reported, and I did this without checking that fact first.
My error.
I do believe a Blue Tsunami is coming..people have smartened up and the GOP is in desperation mode.
