Is the old Biden really back?

[westaussie]

Surely after the last couple of days that will be off the agenda now?

I didn’t think Biden’s speech was going to be a big deal around here, but apparently it stuck a nerve.

Trump supporters should blame the bat ■■■■ crazy right wing media and of course trump, for setting such low expectations.

It’s even creating new conspiracy theories. I love how they are ignoring that there was 2 dozen reporters there. I listened to an NPR reporter talk of how odd it was watching the speech in a near empty room.

Long view, yes.

Trump is an existential threat.

The GOP is an existential threat. Hell the DNC is too. Trump is incidental.

I didn’t watch the speech. But last night, it was brought up by an acquaintance who knows a lot about videography, and who watched it while on some kind of live chat with others. My friend told me that several chatters believe that the speech was pre-recorded and pointed to something called “morph cuts” that they were able to identify. I don’t know anything about editing so I don’t think I’d pick up on it, if it was true.
But I was reading a review of the speech on a Hollywood site called “Deadline” and there were several comments; a couple of them also said the the speech was not live. I think Rush also said something about it being pre recorded.
As I said, I haven’t watched it, so I don’t know, but I personally wouldn’t have a problem with its being recorded, unless it had been, when it was promoted as a live speech.

Relying on the comments sections to determine the veracity of a questionable claim, oh my.

Our kind has never, ever won a conflict with fascists once the fascists seize an industrial state.

As discussed in another thread, the video says “LIVE” in big letters and the media presented it as live.

A charge that if true would virtually END is presidential run in an instant. This is Qanon level stuff.

You’re right. We haven’t.

I don’t think carrying water for Joe is going to save us.

Um, we’ve all seen that that can totally get you elected president these days.

It’s the same Biden that it’s always been, Trump worshipers are just panicking that the moron they support is about to be a 1 term loser.

And Fox news presented it as live too right. Is Fox complicit in this media hoax?

So this is the newest thing Republicans are throwing at the wall. Be right back - I’ve got to go grab another beer. This is entertaining.

I think I’ll join ya. It’s noon somewhere, right?

This just isn’t the zinger you think it is. Orange man had been bad, especially in the last five months. Except for pursuing his personal agendas, he’s basically forsaken governance entirely.

It really is hilarious. I wonder why they’re suddenly so worried about “sleepy Biden”?

Yep. About the only thing Biden has going for him is that he is not Trump.

Well that and different policies.
