Y'all knew Joe Biden was old before the debate. All of this panic about Joe Biden is really annoying. It's obvious that there is an agenda from the media.
Yea, we knew he was old, but he was supposed to reassure everyone he was mentally capable. He did the opposite, and now he's essentially gone back into hiding since the disaster. Why no immediate townhalls? Where are all the press conferences and interviews?? Either he's capable or he's not, and he's not demonstrating that he is.
@@DementiaDon Joe's not talking because all the media wants to talk about is his debate performance. How would you like it if someone kept bringing up your mistakes everytime you showed up? You wouldn't like it. You would want to move on. That's what Joe is trying to do. Frankly, he could flub all the debates, he still has my vote. Reminder: Hillary won all her debates and still lost to a non-politician with bad hair.
@@sillyoutcome Joe has a 37% approval rating and is down in the polls since the debate, and 80% view him as too old. That's a huge problem. You can only take the anti-trump vote so far.
The debate performance was so bad that its rocked the foundation of Bidens support. Lines like 'we beat medicare', meltdown moments and stumbling over basic points. Dems anticipating some of those moments being replayed in ads closer to the election.
You are utterly deluded if you choose to believe he does not have dementia. I wouldn’t trust him to drive a car or look after my kids. What kind of leader is that?
Don Lemon WTF???? As a man who touts being all "Independent" and shit, you don't seem that much independent, relying on corporate media frenzy. Are you doing this mainly for building your numbers or what??
Why are Trump's cognitive issues, criminal charges etc not getting so much attention as Biden's bad debate. This biased media focus could be America's downfall. Smart Americans just ALL go out and vote BLUE to drown out all this negative noise. 💙💙💙💙💙
They are panicking because of Project 2025. I wish the ageism would stop already. They are polling democrats, and there is no way Michele Obama would win even if she ran. Neither would Harris. We all know where the country is right now, and it ain't pretty. We need to keep Biden in and stop undercutting him for being old. Biden will win if they stop undercutting him.
We should all be worried about the security and safety of our country. It’s being completely ignored by people who vote blue (that’s been me my whole adult life) because they aren’t being exposed to stark reality. I started watching congressional and senate hearings about six months ago, and I almost wish I would not have. That’s where I found out how truly bad things were from a national security standpoint. None of the issues that democrats are talking about will matter at all if we don’t take care of the real threats we are facing: if I add too much detail my comment will get deleted unfortunately.
Tell that to Joe the next time he stumbles going up an airplane boarding ramp. He tried to jog up a ramp, but stumbled. Instead of taking his time after stumbling, he tried at least twice more to jog up the ramp, and stumbled again each time. It seems he may be obsessed with, trying to prove himself. At his age for what? It should have been understood and agreed to by all, that he would serve one term. It was a gamble that he would finish his first term. Do we really want to risk seeing his cognitive abilities diminish before our very eyes - in real time, or is that what is happening now?
"We finally beat Medicare" This has nothing to do with physical ability, and everything to do with his mental capacity. The whole world saw during the debate that Joe isn't with it, and we need someone who is 100% there to be able to fight the fascists. Where has he been since the debate? Hardly any interviews, no press conferences, just carefully managed appearances at a rally and some other places. If Joe isn't capable of campaigning the way he needs to, he's not capable of doing the job.
I rather vote for aging old “Biden” for president over Trump, who is a “liar”, criminal convicted felon, wife cheater, grifter, Putin’s puppet & traitor! Vote Blue Biden with reputation, decency & honesty!👍
They knew that Biden was old but the media kept covering up the fact that Biden is cognitively declining. The issue is not will the cultists vote for Biden, the issue is can he get the independent vote and people on the fence to vote for him?
It's not about being old, it's about that he has degraded mentally so much that he is unable to function without support. He doesn't recognize he's own life and the people around him most of the time. This is not a person which could lead a country. He's brain does not work anymore and most likely he will die during the next for years. It is not morally right anymore to endorse Biden, quite the opposite.
Exactly. That's why all who want to maintain democracy need to pivot all programs, shows, podcasts, etc. to pointing out what it would mean if the other guy was elected. Don. It doesn't matter what the "rules" are, a dictator follows no rules
Richard, that's why constantly sowing doubt is the center of the problem. Remember, if Biden can't finish his term, Kamala will assume the presidency. Win/Win
Because the media hasn't been covering for Trump and gaslighted the American people into believing Biden is capable of anything without a script infront of them. Now to save credibility with the sheep they have gaslit, they have ask what is now painstakingly obvious.
Because the media hasn't been covering for Trump and gaslighting people telling them not to believe what they see and that Biden is fit and competent, how do they maintain credibility with you idiots if they don't ask now after that debate.
go watch David Pakman, he's spent forever talking about Trump's dementia.. although he also ignores Biden's dementia.. so i guess you can only get so much, balance seems to be hard to find with "left" commentators
I believe that's who Don is as an experience and skillful person that has been reporting News for a long time as well as discussing it now with others which is a new way in doing in his own Business; no job is real easy keep up the good work Don even when it can be stressful
Hey Don ...I thought you were better than this after a week. You are feeding into the corporate media frenzy ....why are you not focusing on the real crisis of project 2025 and how the Supreme court is providing the pathway.
Oh god project 2025 is such a joke… no one believes in it or that it’ll be implemented by any administration. Our real issue is the party needs to nominate someone we can be excited to vote for
Richard is not speaking like a democratic strategist he is speaking like a scared rabbit being chased by a pack of wolves. With that attitude you can't win. What if we all had that defeatist attitude? Should we just give up? "When we get knocked down, We get back up and fight" Wise words, thank you President Biden.
This is a joke, a national embarrassment, beyond words. I'm a lifelong Democrat, also a resident of Taiwan. This guy is upping the danger level, how is this not universally understood. Careerist cowards, get real, please, fast.
@@KyleOfTheNorthIn Taiwan, we stand a massively elevated chance of being invaded if Trump wins. Hence my preference for a candidate with a strong chance at winning and not being overly concerned about our mad king’s feelings. The stakes are quite high here for some of us.
@@DirtFlyer spreading doom and gloom so close to the election is the dumbest thing you can do. face reality. no other candidate will magically wave a wand and all of a sudden have better chances than the sitting president who objectively has done a better job than Trump claims he did.
Yes, absolutely true, to u and I, however some democrats are really concerned about longevity. I think a person who will protect women's right to choose, knock down that stupid Project 2025 crap show and pass the voting legislation that protects us, that's who I will vote for.
@@DementiaDon 80% of some couple hundreds maybe a thousand people. do not conflict these numbers with ACTUAL numbers... polls barely ever paint a correct picture. It is just another thing the media loves because this gives the perception of plausibility, when in reality it is nothing more than fishing with a rusty pike in a lake with barely any fish in it and wearing a blindfold.
This narrative about Biden is working my last nerve. We know he's old...We know he's not nimble... But we know he and his team can do the job. Can we start amplifying the Trump threat , and quit sowing doubt about Biden?
It makes me sad for the Biden's, and our country. Unfortunately he is showing obvious signs of some kind of neurological issue. Thinking logically, and not be in denial, Biden has to get out of the campaign. Neuro conditions do not get better especially with age. Nothing personal, just being honest, the most important thing is Trump loses. The numbers show VP Harris is 4pts closer in the polls. I personally put my money on the 4+pts candidate or other candidate with Harris as VP again.
@@DementiaDon stop infighting. Worries are okay, but trying go with doom and gloom and trying to get people to jump ship and change candidate so close to the election is worse than sticking with Biden at this point in time. Trump is still a damn weak candidate no matter what this projection of republicans after that debate might want to tell you. And Trump will not get any stronger as a candidate because he himself constantly keeps showing signs of age, still cannot even go one sentence without another lie, is still involved in criminal prosecution, which is a way stronger argument against him than anything you can throw at Biden...
@@kfitz2711 I believe they all use a teleprompter. It's been said that Trump does not follow his teleprompter which leadis to some of his bombastic, unhinged, irrational, aphasia ridden comments. If we are considering cognitive ability, both candidates are questionable. If they are going test Biden they need to test Trump also. Unfortunately, this election is not a Clash of the Titans.
@@kfitz2711 if people want proof if Joe Biden can still be a good president, just compare his term to that of Trump. You really do not need much more. Its is not even close, plus it is also a bonus that Biden is the obvious choice to keep the american democracy alive for the time being...
Flawed Old Wow, yall are working my nerves. These shows centered around pushing Biden out is telling. How will it go away when yall keep saying he is too old. Trump is just a few years younger so make it make since. Bye Don
If you’re scared, scared shitless, if you Then vote Democrat! It doesn’t matter who’s the Democratic nominee! Don’t you guys get it? We’re voting against Trump. It doesn’t matter whether it’s Kamala, whether it’s Newsom it doesn’t matter …vote Democratic! That’s the message you should be sending out instead of sending out negativity!
@@Lee-fc3rg I'm independent, voting Democrat because nobody can allow 4 more years with DJT. He won't put through the voting bill, he doesn't care about anyone but himself and he's a bigot.
Exactly. This has always been about preventing Trump. It was the same four years ago and it will still be the same this time around. Polls and talking in circles will not change this simple truth. People stepped up in 2020 because we do not want Trump to be in the whitehouse ever again. And as long as democrat leaning media stays the course and does not fall into a group panic, people will show up once again to prevent Trump, as long as the general consensus is not "all is lost, we do not even have to vote anymore..." For as long as there is the feeling that we can prevent this circus from coming back to town, sane people will step up again and vote against Trump. There is no doubt in my mind about that. Let the people do their thing, and the media should do the same instead of swiveling their heads nonstop.
Seriously Don? Is that the way we judge who can make the economy work for everyone? The ability to show who is best on debating and their style? Really? You know better Don, ask the pertinent question!That is not all you are asking Don, please don't be disingenuous.
This "interview" was a waste of time. Neither guest gave any consequential information. Polls are inaccurate and a small sampling. And Don stop screaming like your hair is on fire. You can help by backing the Democratic candidate.
Dear family I need your help I need your prayers right now my sister's dog was just attacked while on a camping trip and is in the hospital her name is Sadie please help me pray for her in Jesus's name
The ability to put the right people in the right places does, and this is what Biden has done thus far. He does not have to make every decision by himself, presidents rarely do that. Most of the things will be curated by thier staff and while Biden has decent moderate people working for him, Trump goes with a wild circus of questionable people who he keeps throwing under the bus every other month. I hope I do not have to remind everybody what a damn circus the entire White house was when Donald Trump was president...
@@MrSheduur I totally agree brother. He’s one of the finest presidents of my lifetime besides Bill Clinton. But I think he is going to lose. That debate was such a profound moment that will be chopped up and distributed around the world it will be hard to recover from to actually win. He’s now behind in Virginia and Nee Hampshire by 10 points.
I’m surprised Gov Roy Cooper of NC was never promoted last year as a candidate. He’s done a great job here, likable as a Democrat and under 70. His term ends this year, could’ve been a smooth transition. Regardless, I’m voting for Biden to safeguard our democracy. His age and demeanor in public is the least of my concerns given these circumstances. We all have a successor in the shadows if needed.
President Biden is already successfully doing the job . Get-off this covertly enhancing opposition messaging . Get-on the crucial messaging of saving democracy and stay on it . . . I don't understand the flip-flopping of this channel ... "Are These Lemons Really Oranges" ?
I will take dementia over lies anytime! Enough about this topic of old age already! Your fear will manifest if you keep talking about it! Talk about the lies of the debate too!
or even better, focus on other things instead of trying to infight and sow doubt... these guys are absolutely terrible. if we want Biden to win, we need to have his back, not talk him down. sure he did not have a great debate, but these circus shows have never been the deciding factor in elections, so this wont change now.
No one disputes that Biden has been a great president and has accomplished a great deal. However, American swing voters are not logical thinkers. Most of them rely on perception and what they have seen at the debate is what shakes them up and cast doubts on Biden's ability to carry on for the next term. If Biden has not debated Trump or refused to debate Trump, no one would question his position as the nominee on the democratic ticket. That debate was a gigantic mistake and that debate has caused people to doubt his ability to beat Trump.
Are you listening to the voters? Most democrats don't do polls. You guys in the media have focused on polls, and they were wrong every time. What I'm hearing is that no one has really changed on both sides.
It’s terrifying to me to see and perceive both of these guests look as if they are going to cry! It feels almost hopeless on retaining our democracy.😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
do not get infected by this bs. Biden had one bad debate, thats all this is. he did bad on a media circus event that has never been a deciding factor in an election, no matter how much CNN wants you to believe that this thing is bigger than it actually is...
In Missouri, years ago, we elected a dead man to the Senate, Mel Carnahan. He was our former Governor. I live in Missouri and the no exception abortion rule is killing us women. I don’t want other states to go through this mess, so I think you see where I’m going with this.
KEEP DREAMING/LET HIM RUN,TRUMP WILL WIN. YOU PEOPLE ARE IN DENIAL. THE GUY HAS DEMENTIA. VOTING TRUMP ALL THE WAY😂😅IS NOT AGE! FOR US TRUMPIST GO JOE. ! WE WILL WIN MAGA2024 ❤❤VOTE❤RED 🇺🇸 ❤
After the Supreme Court decision, I will vote for @JoeBiden even if he is in a wheelchair to protect our democracy. This is how the dictators of the world take power, through the highest courts.
With the chevron ruling ... the immunity ruling ...everything going on this is a waste of your talent. Rally the troops sound the alarm ... Biden is the candidate we are on board ... 2025 must be stopped in its tracks ... what are you doing 🤷🏽♀️
Exactly!!! Sitting on our hands, praying for six weeks is NOT SMART! Smart is "seeing the blood in the water" and knowing the other guy is a shark is ALL I need to kno. We need a great person who has all of the morality and charm of Mr Biden in a body that is at least 15 years younger. Mrs McKee
What a stup*d question is that !!! Everyone knows Sleepy can't win besides he even knows that he withdrew from the presidential run. By the way, IF he run and not withdrawing, there is no way he can win because beside the Republican party, the Democrats are the biggest campaigner for Trump..😂😂😅
Don. You are being too hard on your guest. We don't know yet. That is the answer & a perfectly reasonable one. I love your guests civic lesson. Feels like his comment IS the answer. Unfortunately, we won't have the answer until Election Night. But remember 2000 and 2020? It might even be a 2016 shocker again! I disagree with your notion regarding not being able to answer in the affirmative in this moment. We are now living in a world where the impossible one moment can change 360 over night.
I'm curious to see how much the number drops for number of voters who vote in the US election. So many are disillusioned over the worst of the worst of candidates from which to choose; Dementia, vs Demented, or Brain-worm Guy.
Answer this question-- Is America ready, or willing to vote, for a woman POTUS of color? Because that’s exactly what people are thinking about right now. If Joe Biden has to step down while in the WH, Kamala would become president. This is on the mind of voters right now. They’re taking this possibility into consideration. Will this or does this scare some voters? 🤔
