i literally just read this entire piece you linked and not one paragraph in that entire link is about anything concrete wrong with biden. The entire "NY post editorial post" claim of biden not being in control is because he doesnt show emotion to the dead soldiers families? Nothing they wrote shows anything about biden not being in control. They got a clickbait title to fool low iq morons like yourself so good job sharing it. I have no idea why i ever waste minute on you. Always same low iq bs
Book details Biden pressuring Manchin on COVID bill: ‘You’re really f‑‑‑ing me’ https://thehill.com/homenews/admini...ng-manchin-on-covid-bill-youre-really-ing-me/
The Memo: Questions over Biden’s age are getting sharper https://thehill.com/homenews/admini...uestions-over-bidens-age-are-getting-sharper/ excerpt: A new book about Biden by Franklin Foer, “The Last Politician,” has generated its own share of headlines about the president’s age. The book depicts Biden complaining about his staff cleaning up a comment he made during a speech in Warsaw, Poland, last year. Biden had implied that Russian President Vladimir Putin would have to be removed from power. His aides later clarified that the United States was not calling for regime change in Moscow. "Rather than owning his failure, he fumed to his friends about how he was treated like a toddler. Was John Kennedy ever babied like that?” Foer writes. At Tuesday’s White House media briefing, Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy noted again that Biden was the oldest president in history and asked Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “Why does White House staff treat him like a baby?” Jean-Pierre responded, “No-one treats the President of the United States, the commander-in-chief, like a baby. That’s a ridiculous claim.” The press secretary went on to assert that, in relation to the war in Ukraine, Biden’s age was actually an asset. “The value of his experience and wisdom resulted in rallying the free world against authoritarianism,” she said. This is an argument made in broad terms by Biden himself, and by outside allies. Democratic strategist Simon Rosenberg told this column: “What we’ve learned with President Biden is that age is both an asset and a liability. The liability is obvious but with age comes wisdom and experience. It has allowed Biden to be a very successful president in a very rancorous and challenging time.” Rosenberg further asserted that Biden’s experience was partly responsible for him “being able to pas ten years’ worth of legislation in just two years” before Republicans took control of the House this January. Concerns about Biden’s age could also become at least a degree less damaging if former President Trump becomes the GOP nominee, as looks likely for the moment. Trump, 77, is just three years younger than Biden. Most polls, including the NewsNation/Decision Desk HQ and Associated Press/NORC surveys, show fewer voters to be as concerned with age in relation to Trump, however. Still, the former president’s extreme divisiveness and high unfavorably ratings could give Biden an advantage he would not have against a younger, less polarizing opponent. Some independent observers also contend that the media focus on Biden’s age is excessive. Danielle Vinson, a professor of politics and international affairs at Furman University, argued: “There has been a lot of partisan coverage in conservative media that focuses on every gaffe that he makes. But, quite honestly, every president makes gaffes and some of them are quite young when they do so. George W. Bush had an interesting relationship with the English language, for example.” Though that may be true, the numbers in recent polls tell their own story. Biden’s best hope is to try to show his vigor, and to hope concerns about his age will be supplanted by other topics. But if his age becomes a disqualifying factor for even a sliver of voters, it could spell deep trouble for his reelection hopes. more at the link
The author of the book did a interview already on my favorite podcast where he literally went out of his way to find stories of bidens age being problems and he couldnt find a single case. Instead he found the polar opposite of biden micromanaging his staff and not trusting anyone afraid of them screwing up. He doesnt trust his cabinet to make any big decisions and he has to rubber stamp everything big that happens in the WH. Nd the person in the comm department got fired who remarked on bidens warsaw comment. Ron klain the COS also left aka biden is running the WH
Maybe - but Biden has always done **** like this. He did stuff like this as VP and even decades ago when he was in the Senate. He has always been a little bit goofy and absent minded. Maybe this is more than that, he is 80 years old - but it isn't like we are talking about someone slick and savvy like Clinton or Kennedy. He has always been somewhat or a bumbler, but effective politician.
I don't really disagree with anything in this article. The reality is that Joe Biden is 80 years old, and is doing a job that has historically done by men 25 years younger. He isn't going to look spry, he is going to make gaffes and he is going to be exhausted because of his age. The article also rightly points out that there is an argument to be made that perhaps his age overall is an asset because of his wisdom. It is a difficult situation as Biden will be 82 years old if he begins a second term and there is no guarantees, so the VP nominee will be very important.... but Trump isn't much younger.
I don't see anything wrong with what Biden did with Manchin - he needed votes from his own parties, and he pressured Manchin to support his legislation, and it worked. I would say if anything, it makes Biden look effective.
I fully expect Biden to make gaffes, he`s an old dude, but he is also wise. I also fully expect the right to shine a light on every single instance, that's just politics. I would prefer not to have Biden run again but the Dems have once again not brought along anyone, I had high hopes for Booker and Jeffries. Harris is a wild card, she gets a horrible rap from the right and to be honest she is never in the spotlight, so I have no clue if she's effective or not, I am not sure if that's by design or not. I don't automatically pick a Dem unless something is drastic like Biden VS Trump, then I will pick Biden all day every day and twice on Sunday.......to be honest I would pick a turkey sandwich over trump. I would prefer trump as the gop nominee as it would set up a trump vs biden 2.0 and I like Biden`s chances but I don't like his chances with anyone else as the gop frontrunner. I like certain parts of Christie and Haley and I would have to really look at them if they were the nominee. The Dems do so well in certain areas but grooming a new frontrunner is not one of them
Don't be adoofus and ignore that previous reply. Digging holes is when I'm camping and I take adoodoo Behoove
You should read the new book. The author who's a ukraine hawk began the book talking about how he thought biden was weak on ukr cuz he doesn't give them fighter jets and long range missles. As the book goes it the author learns from biden that when Biden thinks of "cold war" he doesn't think of what we think of the cold war aka 70s nd 80s, but rather the 50s nd 60s Biden talks about how he remembers that time as the cuban missle crisis and the Korean War and how society was on edge in America at all time and how depressing the era was. The proxy wars, fear of nukes, non stop competition really played a role in America during this time. It's a really fascinating book as it does talk about how he uses his skills he's learned from a different era to help pass legislation now.
seems legit WH spokesperson insists Biden’s hasty Medal of Honor departure was to ‘minimize’ COVID exposure https://nypost.com/2023/09/06/covid...t-not-masking-after-breathing-on-elderly-vet/
Family is very important to Joe Biden so I think that is certainly possible. I also still find it very odd how the party of family values is making such an issue out of this. As stated I'm paying some of my parent's bills. My parents paid my bills for a big part of my life. It doesn't seem weird when they aren't earning regular income for me to help cover things.
One of the things I've hated about Joe Biden was his rambling stories and putting his foot in his mouth. This has been a mark of him going back for decades.
Remember. Biden is an old with dementia. Except when he's getting the best of Republicans in Congressional negotiations. and running Hunter Biden's businesses. Then he's a criminal mastermind..
