Stuart is right. Of course they are both too old. This didn’t happen overnight. At this age some days are like this, he may be better tomorrow. He still has skills and is smarter than Trump. I’m in my late 80s and this is what you get. So why did they want a debate in the first place. Trump is subject to the same issues. This is a vote for democracy and I will be voting for Biden.
Thank you, Joan. Biden is very old, Biden knows he is very old. The whole country knows he's old and slower. BUT He is still very competent. He is not incapacitated. He is proving his success through his work every single day. That said, Biden is not a selfish arrogant president, he knows full well what he is capable of, and when and if he feels he can no longer commit to the responsibilities of his presidency, he will step down.
@@LisaLisa-2023Stuart Stevens is an old Bush Cheney neocon, I would never listen to him. Biden is a terrible president, he has the most incompetent cabinet ever, he has the world near nuclear war, and is funding a genocide in Gaza. I voted for Biden last time, but never again. Biden is a warmonger who has no idea what he’s doing.
@LisaLisa-2023 I agree with you.81 is old but not very old.There's people now that live to 100 and more.80 is the new 60's.President Joe Biden is amazing,late 70's ,he did a good job and delivered for 3 1/2 years .You'll get my vote President Joe.I look at substance and accomplishments and not loud talks,lies or nonsense.
@@user-jd1dn3eg8o BTW if you believe 80 is the new 60, you will be disappointed. The average age of death for men in 5he US is early 80s and women is late 80s. Where I live we average over a dozen who are past the century mark. I hope you noticed that I will be voting for Biden no matter what. It is a vote for democracy. We just need younger people in government.
They are both pathetic liars. All politicans are. That is what they are paid for. Biden has lost an election in the 80s because of lying and purgery damn it.
Yes, he has every chance. It was bad debate prep and strategy. To replace Biden at this time would be a mistake and give the election to Trump. We need to support him, not tear him down.
it’s funny it’s not like the Biden administration didn’t use the fbi and cia agencies to then illegally launch an investigating on former president Trump and got away with it!!!! Then they trialed him with a very democratic local judge of a city that he had no influence in. Then when presenting the case they silenced the guy defending trump they told him that he would be sentenced to 15-20 years in prison you can read where the guy made a case about this incident where they threatened him that if he provide any evidence that proved trump innocent they would put him in prison and they wouldn’t let him testify or else they were going to charge him with perjury basically say whatever he said was a lie without letting the guy provide evidence and throwing him in jail so the jury also mostly democratic didn’t get a chance to hear the other side they weaponized the justice system watch the dr Phil interview with trump get educated dumbass Biden administration already have done it trump never persued when Biden son used taxpayer money to fly to Russia and do deals to get money from Russia and buying hookers and cocaine
@@s.w.warbirds4126 It's a binary choice. Good vs Evil, Democracy vs Dictatorship, etc. etc. If you're MAGA, I'm afraid you're part of the problem, pal. Also, I suggest to improve on your English. Joe Biden is a human being, therefore it requires a different pronoun. I know, I know, you MAGA troglodytes aren't big on pronouns.
@s.w.warbirds4126 Stop drinking that Trump kool-aid. I, too, was literally sick to my stomach as well. But not for the reasons you think. I am worried that because Biden did so poorly during the debate that people who are still on the fence about either candidate will just sit the election out which is a vote for Donnie.
PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN SOUNDS GREAT TODAY, HE IS IN RALEIGH NORTH CAROLINA, AND HE GOT HIS GUMPTION TODAY. HE SOUNDS GREAT IN NORTH CAROLINA THIS DAY JUNE 28, 2024 FRIDAY.
Yea because he's back on the teleprompter! People know that, right? At the rallies he's on the prompter and they just tell him to read it and shout as loud as he can. He's completely out to lunch
They should be panicking because Biden has no shot of winning. Even if you want to be realistic, the guy is 15 points lower than he was in 2020. He’s losing bad on every issue but abortion. Something like 80% of the country already thought it was too old before the debate Biden is approaching near 0% chance of winning. If he’s the candidate, it’s going to be a landslide and it’s kind of what a Democrats deserve 🤷♂️
And Fetterman knows this and defended Biden cause he's been there. Also, Fetterman's failed debate occurred two weeks before the midterm election, and he won. We're in June. That is plenty of time for people to move on from the failed debate.
Seriously, get back on the ledge. Biden needs to go. He's done a great job, but we are in an incredibly dangerous point on the world stage and we need someone who is awake.
I think Stuart Stevens is absolutely right. I think they need to spend the remaining time putting Biden back out there so he can override the image presented in this debate. I think Biden should admit he did a bad job and vow to win back people's trust. This was one debate that occurred five months outs. My other question would be, who would replace him? All of the names that were mentioned may be Democratic darlings but I don't think they have any greater chance than Biden if he fights back against the image. I think Democrats need to crank up the machine, push Biden's accomplishments and call out all of Trump's flaws and lies on a daily basis. Stop the hand wringing and get back to work!
Well literally he gave a speech in north carolina and he was awesome but of course dont talk about that,my god u should be focus on the crazy crap trump said
@@tresa38 Well, I think we can walk and chew gum at the same time. As I said, "push Biden's accomplishments and call out all of Trump's flaws and lies". I also said to put Biden back out there so he can counter the debate image. It seems that the NC speech is them doing that. If you think what I said was to ignore Biden and focus on Trump's crazy crap, you need to reread what I wrote.
President Biden's problem is RUNNING for re-election, it's not managing the issues of the United States. Democrats should support our guy, The right supports their guy no matter how many lies he tells, they just tell the same lies. It's too late to try to replace the Presidential candidate, it wouldn't work even with someone fantastic like Newsom.
@@tresa38 A speech is very very very different from a debate. He knows exactly what to say at the speech. Please my dear friend we cannot risk the fuutre of our country. If Trump wins its all over for America. Also Kamala has a lower approval rating than her boss. Lets Support Biden/kamala leaving for a Gavin Newsom + Wes Moore or + Gretchen Whitmer ticket
How can you debate a liar, when no one fact checks the answers?? Should we vote the most handsome guy/ Biden has a stammer and should not be judged by that..
Biden 100 percent. We all know he’s an inconsistent speaker. State of Union and D Day speeches were great. No need to freak out. He was under the weather and over prepared with facts. Why is he not talking about Trump’s performance or CNN’s embarrassing moderation?
We all know biden is old but we as the American people have to save our democracy trump is not the answer we still have to look out for ourselves and vote to save our nation 💙
I agree with everything Stuart is saying. The Democratic party needs to stand by Biden and help him get elected. Biden is fighting for us everyday, the democrats should show some loyalty. He had a bad night, that happens.
Agree Democrats especially in the media need to calm the hell down. One bad debate is not the end all be all in an election. This afternoon in Raleigh, NC the energetic President Joe Biden was back in full form. I still believe in President Joe Biden! 💙
How will he look in four or five years? He's not going to improve. You're deluded. And you're handing Trump the win with your delusions. And that will fuck up not only your own country, but many, many others. Get real.
We are currently involved in two wars which may spiral into WWIII. We cannot afford to have a president who's asleep at the wheel. I love Biden, I think he's been an excellent president, but the writing is on the wall and it says "Biden needs to step down immediately".
Ya cause that worked out so good last time, if democrats don't want trump they should demand Biden drop out immediately. Put n rfk or someone with a head on their shoulders.. even some Republicans like him
Americans need better than a voting for a convicted felon who is facing possible jail time, or a feeble old man who couldn’t answer simple policy questions, without meandering and looking like a deer in headlights
President Biden did have a poor debate night, but that doesn’t take his ability away as commander in chief. We see he was over prepared and was focused on doing an exceptional job instead of being Scranton Joe.
Watch Biden rally in North Carolina today you all need to get over it period.... he is the president we need right now and Don you have the right to your opinions but that's all it is..
Of course Trump didn’t answer shit and lied constantly. This has been the case with him for the last 8 years. We know this about him. Joe Biden has been objectively excellent president. I would vote for him if he was in a coma on a ventilator if it would stop Trump from returning to office. Having said that, last night was devastating for Joe Biden. There will be no coming back from this. Any blaming CNN or his cold or his stutter is pure denial. And pointing at Trump and somehow pretending that the real scandal of last night was his lies and deflections…..this is pure delusion. Millions of people watched and heard a frail, stumbling, tired man struggle to finish his answers or land attacks. This is an extinction level event for his campaign.
@@rselby0654 To understand the current Republican Party, read "The Wannabe Fascists" by Federico Finchelstein, world-renowned expert on Fascism! There are "four pillars of fascism" - xenophobia, propaganda, political violence, and dictatorship... the only thing they were lacking was the dictatorship and that is feasable with Presidential Immunity and Project 2015...

@@user-jd1dn3eg8o I agree. I'm no politician or political campaign expert. I am just a regular average American voter. And what I see is a GREAT President. He entered this presidency under crisis and chaos with unyielding courage and commitment. People were dying in droves from a poorly handled COVID nightmare with a Civil war on the brink of eruption. Dissension like we've never heard of. Biden continues to do his job just like Don Lemon said every single day. He is not incapacitated. He is still ABLE and Willing to do his job.
@@patriciabouchard5296 I thought so too. But I’d take a dead Biden over a living Trump. So to me, there’s no 2nd option besides Biden or anyone from the Dems’ side. Otherwise, the world is f*cked including where you’re from.
It’s aging. We didn’t think he was going to be the best but he did not lied for us. Stop the panic and let support Biden. Presenters should be able to guide their viewers. Please let remember that we all have to be there one day.
@@MothGirl007 lt's literally like hearding cats. One 90 minute bad debate by an ailing hoarse Pres. Biden vs a continually lying, racist, mentally declining, 34 felonies and counting, rapist, l'm happy l got rid of Roe traitor whose Putin's puppet, and who'd sell the USA to the highest bidding dictator. Really? Still riding with Biden/Harris 💙💙
Biden = Biggest Idiot Democrats ever nominated. a definite Republican win in 2024.... VOTE RED ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤TO BRING SANITY TO THIS GREAT NATION. TRUMP 2024
OMG!! I just saw your post. And Yes, One absolute positive way of moving this forward, is for his supporters, his team, and his party to show up for Biden during the next several months of campaigning! Biden does well here! GEORGIA, MICHIGAN, ARIZONA, NEVADA, WISCONSIN, NORTH CAROLINA & PENNSYLVANIA ❤💙🤍 He is almost at the home stretch to November. Please. 👍
I think Biden is still good. We just need to remarket him a bit. LOL We need to convey the message that Biden has the strongest team around him and is still the best man for the job. With age and experience comes wisdom. That's a talking point.
Exactly. I wish these corporate networks would stop with their both sides reporting. They should be talking daily about Trump's lies and Project 2025 n the intent
I don’t like Trump but really? You realize Biden lied about 90% of the stuff he said? He even resulted to saying “bloodbath”, saying Europe has funded Ukraine just as much as much as the US. Said boarder patrol supports him. Brought up Charlottesville. Said immigration is down from trumps presidency. Fact check lol
While I was watching the debate last night, my heart was pounding real quick. I refused to believe it. My president, Mr. Biden, was in real difficulty. 😢 What has happened? 🤷♀️
Biden's rally today was great, it was early in the day. He was strong and on point, he had a good night's rest. This is how the Democrats need to support him. He addressed his performance last night in a forthright manner and with honestly. This was the real President Joe Biden that we need to see.
@@CindyTemple Cindy, what I should have said is obviously he's done the job of president well for the last few years already but running for re-election adds traveling and prepping for rallies and the rally appearances themselves and that's only what I can think of. And let's face it, his full time job is not just playing golf 4 times a week. I'm saying let's support our guy in whatever ways we can.
@@shirlp8378 Yes those rallies full of ....well a few people are so taxing. Media has been trying to cover for him for a while now as he wanders on stage and needs help getting down the stairs. Shaking hands with easter bunny, "where am I" etc. If only you were correct.
I disagree with Don Lemon. Most of the time I agree with him, not this time. He seems blindsided to what Stuart Stevens is talking about. Stuart Stevens is the far wiser person in this interview. Don Lemon may be taking the devil's advocate position, but I still disagree with him. I agree wholeheartedly with Stuart Stevens. I think Don Lemon will be proved wrong when Biden wins.
Watch Bidens rally after the debate on fox it may change your mine..Biden 2024💙💙 (President Biden attends rally in NC following stinging debate criticism) RU-vid
Biden has been a very good president,and is still able to do the job.If Trump gets in,our Democracy is gone.Biden had a bad night,but a great rally today.
I am still voting for President Joe Biden!!! At least he answered the questions. Trump just stood there and lied. Our President was a little under the weather. But he can do the job!!! The media needs to stop with the negative comments. Biden/Harris 2024!!!
Don,for sane people and Americans that love this country,they all saw through all the lies and no policies that Trump spewed and realize that Biden is by far the better choice.
Whoa, Don, those other people, Romney, Obama ect.. we're not up against a psychopath, it is so immature to place everything on a debate. It is ridiculous
Malcolm X said " A wise man can play the part of a clown, but a clown cannot play the part of a wise man." As a Pastor said " Let us not mistake chicanery and buffoonery for statesmanship and leadership. We are smarter than that, must not fall for the okie doke.Take your soles to the polls and vote like your life depends on it, because quite frankly it does".
The POTUS didn’t do a good job in a debate. A bad debate at that, where a convicted felon was allowed to lie 🤦🏽♀️🤯🤷🏽♀️My vote for a decent POTUS does not disappear suddenly and freely given to a criminal, to represent the whole country whose majority of its voting citizens are decent and good people. My vote will not go to the felon guy.
This guy doesn’t get it. He keeps saying oh but he had a bad night forgetting the fact that propaganda has been winning from the beginning and this was probably Pines only chance and he really shit the bed.
Nobody's changing their vote from Biden to Trump after that debate. Nobody. If you wheeled Biden in on a stretcher and he laid there comatose, I'd still vote for Biden. Biden in 2024! 💙
"Fantasy Football Scenario" -- perfect description of these panicked pundits acting like a brokered convention wouldn't be complete chaos. Thanks for your level-headedness, Stuart Stevens.
Dems need to do what’s right for the Country, the guest is right we need to rally. Dems love to be so principled at the wrong time. Republicans have been using the same tactic rally rally rally rally rally and Dems have their head in the sand. It takes a team to run the Country. What does it matter who won the debate…
Don, let’s be real. We all have glitches in clutch time moments. Don, you make several gaffes during every one of your shows. Does that mean people should tune you out and go somewhere else even though you’re doing an excellent job?! HELL NO! That’s the same way I feel about President Biden. Reagan had Alzheimer’s in his 2nd term and there was no ringing of hands and gnashing of teeth by the Republicans. They ALL rallied around him. It’s not President Biden who needs a come-to-Jesus moment. It’s us, the American people. We have a binary choice. One is the road to saving and keeping our democracy and the other is the road to Hell. The world is watching to see what kind of people we are.🗳💙🇺🇸
My mom just became a naturalized citizen and gonna be voting for the first time and when she was watching the debate she already knew Biden is sleepy she was mostly focusing on how trump didn’t answer not one question and rambling and she appalled by how grotesque he looks . She thought Biden did ok and answered some of the questions and her vote will be going to Biden 💙💙💙
But Biden was perfectly fine this morning when he was at the North Carolina for his rally and made his speech. He was full of energy, behaved well, talked well and looked very sharp.
Some Democrats, especially in the media need to calm the hell down. One bad debate is not the end all be all in an election. This afternoon in Raleigh, NC the energetic President Joe Biden was back in full form. I still believe in President Joe Biden! 💙
Yessss he does Don so get Crazy with your Serious and Stupid Words I am sorry for those Democrats who are putting Joe down this is CRAZY ... Joe did a good.job Stop 🛑 trying to make him someone else he is NOT let him be HIMSELF we love Jake is horrible
My god, Stewart. Stop with the “Obama people” nonsense. As a direct result of Biden’s weak, feeble and confused performance we’re concerned for the future of our nation!
I completely agree with Don and I love Joe Biden too. I think he should step aside. This was different than just losing a debate. It was lacking coherence, energy, focus from Biden. Its all about optics. If he is not willing to step aside, then he needs to go over and beyond to demonstrate that he has the energy and focus to fight hard.
I will be voting for Biden. He got us back on track after trump and I believe the is the better choice for President. I believe in his policies and have benefited from the work him and his administration has done. Biden/Harris 2024 #stickwiththewinners
It is a real flaw of the two party system that we as constituents have these to obviously ready-to-retire candidates. There have to be people in the United States who are under fifty.
