I missed the debate as it happened, but I hopped online after the train wreck dumpster fire and was seeing all these reports of how badly it went for Biden. I was a bit skeptical that Slow Joe’s handlers would let him crash and burn like that, so of course I had to watch it myself. And yes, it really was that bad.
After the shock kind of subsided, I worried about who is actually running the country, do we even know? And what does Biden’s clear unfitness for office mean for our national security?
The massive shock-wave that rocked the Democrats, including their alphabet media arm, was a bit surprising, to be honest. I’m not sure what to make of it because many, particularly in the intel-run media, seemed quite shocked at how cognitively impaired Biden is. Acting? Trying to tear him down so that Kackling Kamala looks better by comparison? Whatever the reason for their (feigned?) shock and horror, it was noteworthy.
Equally noteworthy, it seems to me, is how quickly the wagons are being circled, at Obama’s behest, it seems. His unelected team, after all, is running the WH, and quite possibly the entire federal government.
So now the media arm of the Democrat party is scrambling to undo their initial shocked, appalled, panicked, and frightened response to Biden’s mental vacuity being on full display for the entire world to see.
One of the “explanations” they are test driving is that there are really “two Bidens.” Apparently, being enfeebled and out of it is only one Biden, the Biden we all saw during the debate; the other can stand up without doddering and, the very best part, can read words out loud.
They want to elect the second of the two Bidens apparently, so are leaning hard into this schizo thing.
The past 36 hours showcased two Joe Bidens: the veteran president rallying voters in a swing state, and an 81-year-old man struggling to string thoughts together in a debate.The public split screen isn’t new to many inside the White House, where top aides have meticulously stage-managed minutiae such as Biden’s sleep schedule, his orthopedic shoes, his walks to Marine One and his climb aboard Air Force One to try to blunt concerns about his age.Internally, many aides have seen flashes of an absent-minded Biden, but typically brush them off as ordinary brain farts because they usually see him engaged, eight current and former Biden officials told Axios.. . . . White House spokesperson Andrew Bates told Axios that there “is one Joe Biden, who works his heart out fighting for families like the one he grew up in in Scranton, and who, because of his determination, experience and decency, keeps achieving unprecedented results for them.”
My favorite part is the part where Axios assures us that between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. (that seems generous to me), Biden is somewhat capable. Forget about that 3 a.m. phone call, no one’s home. In fact, no one is home for 18 out of 24 hours a day.
Axios continues:
Biden’s miscues and limitations are more familiar inside the White House.The time of day is important as to which of the two Bidens will appear.From 10am to 4pm, Biden is dependably engaged — and many of his public events in front of cameras are held within those hours.Outside of that time range or while traveling abroad, Biden is more likely to have verbal miscues and become fatigued, aides told Axios.
So the gist of the “two Bidens” defense seems to be that America needs to elect a part-time president who is (supposedly) lucid for only six out of 24 hours a day.
But, hey, good news, “a great team of people” are there to “help govern.”
Yeah, no thank you.
Needless to say, people have thoughts.
