Quote from: Muck Savage on June 28, 2024, 04:16:29 AMHow long will Biden stay in the race now?
1 Day? 2 days?

He was a Complete mess
Dems in a panic!

There's been panic for months, but those in or near power are either in denial or are afraid to challenge it.

Maybe this will finally bring it to a head.

Quote from: 93-DY-SAM on June 28, 2024, 08:23:35 AMIt is a sad state of affairs when this is what America offers up as presidential candidates. Much like the two across the water.

It's not much better here with the people in charge North and South.

In fairness it is much better. Our leaders may not be perfect but they are millions miles ahead of both those two. America is a laughing stock only you cant laugh out loud as they are too powerful to upset. The question I have is who is really running the country as it is surely not Biden, I doubt he can put his clothes on himself in the morning.

There are possibly 200,000,000 Yanks enabled to go for president, and they end up with these 2.....

Sad sick place.
Quicker they get the First Americans in the run the place the better.
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Is it not very early to have a 'debate' between the big two?

It's only June and election not until November.

I don't think you can debate with Trump.

He'll just make stuff up as he goes along.

Also if you disagree with him, he'll just say it's fake news and a lie etc.

You can't debate with him.  That's how he operates.

Fact checkers have already stated that he lied in part of every single answer given.

Unfortunately most Americans are too stupid to even realise it.

Added to that is Biden's performance. That was a gift for Trump last night which no amount of his money could buy.

Thing is Biden has been like this for a few years. Why is only being openly reported now when it's too late?
A presidential term is 4 years, and it won't start until next January. What is Biden going to be like in 2 or 3 years time?
If I was American, I think I would be voting for Trump. Not because of any particular affinity for him or anything, he's a tube, but because Biden is completely unable to look after himself, never mind run a superpower.

Only thing Trump is good and consistent at is telling lies.  Hard to believe he's allowed to even run with a conviction on 34 felony counts.   The debate between the two of them was some shit show.

I have pointed this out on occasion for last few years, someone somewhere is making the big calls.
The folks who pushed Biden to run four years ago and (unbelieveably again this November) should be questioned at length as to their true motifs.
Power ???
status Quo??

but I will ask this one, what if Joe, stayed out of the public eye, did not debate and squeezed home by a 1/2%
Then what.

A lot of questions need to be asked of the democratic powerbrokers.
When you step back and think about it, it is insane.

Look-Up!

I think Biden's running mate is important as there's a great chance they could end up in the hot seat. At least that's what I'd imagine a lot of Americans will be thinking. Harris will cost him a lot of votes. If Trump picks a palatable one, then it could be very significant for middle grounders.
