The George Stephanopoulos ABC primetime interview with President Biden on Friday night was not convincing that Biden is capable of being President for the next four years.
Biden clearly has aged in the past year, and the fact that he will not agree to a neurological and cognitive test is troubling.
Also, Biden claims that Democratic leaders will not intervene to convince him not to run, which seems delusional at this point.
He did not “think” that he had watched the June 27 debate since it occurred, which is odd that he was not giving an answer of certainty.
Joe Biden is allowing his ego to get in the way of reality, and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden, by encouraging him to resist calls to withdraw from the race, is undermining the likelihood of Democratic victory for Congress, as well as stopping Donald Trump.
The push by some members of Congress to promote Biden’s withdrawal is creating a major crisis of confidence, which can only help the Republican Party and Donald Trump!
That was my read too Professor.
One of the things I found unacceptable was that Biden feels he would be at peace if he loses to Trump, saying: “As long as I gave it my all”.
He was frail and delusional. Time to replace him.
Seconded, Leia. Sometimes doing your best is not enough. If your best is not enough to win, hand the baton to someone with a better chance!
Michael Moore was on MSNBC this evening. He says that he saw some polling showing that both Gretchen Whitmer and Cory Booker poll better against Trump than Biden and Harris do.
He also says that we’ll start hearing from more Democrats speaking out about dropping Biden once they get back from their July 4th vacations next week.
Trump won another delay in the documents case.

A slew of Hollywood heavyweights are calling on President Biden to step aside following his disastrous debate performance last week. Several feel deceived by the White House and top campaign officials for keeping Biden’s age issues a secret while they promoted his candidacy and donated millions.

Trump is now desperately trying to run from his deep ties to Project 2025.

Yes, Biden had a bad debate – but so did Trump. The media is once again repeating the mistakes of 2016.

Biden Narrows Gap With Trump in Swing States Despite Debate Loss

That Bloomberg must be an outlier. Most new polling coming out shows Biden slipping against Trump. With all the talk about Harris, she is rising in match-ups against Trump.
