    If it's a lie and 40% of the population thinks it is real, and you are very likely going to be President, then, yes, I think you should address it.

    This is so sad. Please snap out of it. Think about how badly you want this nonsense to be true. That is clouding your judgment.

    Right, except that 40% is going to believe it regardless of what Joe Biden says so there is no pay off to commenting on it at this point.

    Perhaps the dynamics change in a day or week, but not now.

    Fighting back against widely believed misinformation by speaking truth, rather than ignoring it, is the best path. Whether its Obama or whoever.

    The longer he waits, the more he convinces those people that he has something to hide. I just think it's not the best approach, tactically.

    I don't expect he'd convince all of them, but even if it's just a fraction of them that's better than nothing.

    Perhaps, or he can convince people who aren't yet sure one way or the other that it's a bunch of BS.

    I think it’s only widely believed by hardline Trump followers.

    The problem with responding to misinformation, is that it only encourages more misinformation. Trump would love nothing more than Biden spend all day responding misinformation stories.

    Once again the CRIMINAL in the Whitehouse is projecting - the ONLY criminal in that exchange was Donald J. Trump who should be in prison, very soon.

    100% agree with this. If someone accused me of something like being a pedo)l I would go to the end of the earth to fight it. This isn't a good look.

    One thing I disagree on is Obama fighting allegations he was a Kenyan Muslim. Those weren't worthy of a response imo

    What's sad and pathetic about the current state of affairs is that if we did pass a law barring relations profiting off the office, it'd likely be struck down by scotus.

    Clarence and many others needs to wet their beak.

    If true ... so what? What is the conclusion you draw from that?
