Great news! Biden agrees to debate!

View from Pittsburgh newspaper.

I think Lew realizes that Reps and Trump will make some inroads from this in PA.

“We don’t know the impact on the electorate yet,” said Lew Irwin, a political science professor at Duquesne University. “As much as we’re focused on this painful-to-watch performance, I don’t think former President Trump did himself any favors either. Swing voters, especially suburban women and the so-called double-haters, even as they’re watching and dismayed by what they were seeing with President Biden, they were all being reminded about what they don’t like about Trump.”

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Democrats seek solace or a substitute as they ponder Biden's future....

“Many of the same concerns that you’re hearing about Biden were expressed by partisans [about Fetterman],” said Berwood Yost, director of the Franklin & Marshall College Poll.

I just thought it odd the Heritage Foundation is working to keep Biden in the race.

Not at all.

I think Trump is a raving loon but he has actual supporters so you can’t really say the GOP are running him despite voters, it’s just disappointing it’s come to this. Maybe if DeSantis and Haley didn’t run a scared campaign they could have persuaded people to let Trump go, or if conservative media didn’t worship him. With Democrats it’s an indictment of the party and leadership. They picked Kamala for vp and made no effort to elevate/get her ready to run for 2020 as Biden transitions out of office. And if they picked her because she’s terrible to make Joe look better, that’s even worse. The 2020 primary season ended on Joe despite having a wider field that Hillary’s run did not get. They were all mostly underwhelming and the biggest challenger again, Bernie Sanders, a guy who a chunk of the party thinks cannot win.

This is ramble territory. Dems bad.

WHAT ’ Conservative Media ’ ?
You have 3 places in 2 rows airing Conservative ideas.
All airwaves are Left Propaganda.

Nobody but the totally partisan paid any attention to Trump or what he said. All eyes were on Biden.

You might be surprised at how effective someone like Newsom could be against Trump.

Newsome would be a worse president than Biden or Trump.

He would be bad but don’t forget he survived oust in CA adn he truly would be bad President but with Biden’s voters and never Trumpers voters behind him the shmuck sure would have a chance.

We’re trying to apply normal political analysis to this. We shouldn’t. It doesn’t apply.

I guess I don’t see why that would be. The election will be about turnout and people aren’t going to turn out for Biden. The Dems should replace him for the good of their party and the country.

But I understand Biden is going to have a great election year. I heard here. Also that the Dems would not replace him.

What a difference one debate makes.

Speaking of debates…
if Biden agrees to another one he should ask that it be shceduled early in the Morning.
By the time evening comes Biden is wiped out and out in the space somewhere.
There is a reason why it’s called 'Sundowner Syndrome '.

Too true, regrettably.

You “feel”…libs don’t have a brain and their choice of a President proves that beyond any doubt now.

Noone with a brain would paint them self into a corner like this.
But the Left …oh they have a brain they just let gread and arogance lead them by their nose and now, …look…
they still find a way to blame others for their failure.

Still laughing??

SeaManatee · 2024-07-11T16:47:11.862Z

“Laughably” does not always equate to actual laughter.

And despite the abundance of party chaos, it’s still an absurd thing to post.

Yeah, things aren’t looking worse daily for the dims.

But don’t worry about today.

Worry about tomorrow, and every day after.

They should worry about today…

It’s Big Boy Press Conferece day.

It’s during his banking hours, so I expect he should be fine.

Oh dear.

Biden is scheduled to take questions from the White House press corps at 6:30 p.m. ET Thursday. It had initially been slated for 5:30 p.m., but the White House moved the time to an hour later.

It’s always been past his 10-4pm window.

floydefisher · 2024-07-11T22:30:34.470Z

I honestly thought it would be at around 2pm. Why so late?

Puts on tin foil hat…

Maybe the powers that be really want him to screw this up beyond belief, where the only option left is for him to go and he will have no say about it at all from this point forward.

Takes off tin foil hat.

Either that, or they don’t anyone actually reporting on the press conference. It wasn’t even live on ABC news for crying out loud. You would think they would interrupt their evening news show for something of this magnitude.
