  1. wtf…I haven’t seen this commercial. Described in screenshot below. i did see John King’s bit at the electoral map last night and that was compelling and sobering. Like realignment type of election stuff. 1984/2008 type stuff. Jesus…sorry for the lady’s expression in my picture of screen.
  2. “The Biden For President campaign is calling an all-staff meeting for Friday. It’s heading into a critical weekend for the party as Republican Donald Trumpwraps up a heady Republican National Convention in Milwaukee and Democrats, racing time, consider the extraordinary possibility of Biden stepping aside for a new presidential nominee before their own convention next month in Chicago. As anxiety and information swirled, Biden’s closest friend in Congress and his campaign co-chair, Sen. Chris Coons of Delaware, told The Associated Press, “President Biden deserves the respect to have important family conversations with members of the caucus and colleagues in the House and Senate and Democratic leadership and not be battling leaks and press statements.” https://apnews.com/article/biden-democrats-drop-out-election-2024-3f9e3d15431fd4974771a54e1d0e4ea7
  3. But because the RNC is now over, tomorrow the press is going to go back to full scale “Pass the Torch Joe” stuff. Also most people did not watch his full speech and 1/3 of those who watched the debate watched the speech. And I can’t even know the drop off rate of those that tuned in. Thats the issue. The media will spend 5/10 mins on Trump and Vance and will go right back to Joe needs to go. Most of the media. Normally, either party would love to have a lot of media coverage. For the Dems, they would love if the 24/7 News would break apart Trump’s movie long speech and other stuff. But the media isn’t going to spend much time on it. Tomorrow they will spend a few snippets on it. Heavily edited snippets and it’s back to Joe must pass the torch. Maybe say he’s the same Trump and lies and same rhetoric. Long speech. And it’s right back to pass the torch Joe. with the Olympics coming up, pass the torch is an easy lazy segue for the media.
  4. 1 hour 32 minutes. He was going for Guinness I guess? Jeez. Melania legit shocked the fuck sneaking up on him like that with his one ear covered.
  5. I think Melania startled the shit out of him just now. Walking up to him.
  6. It’s like listening to my mom on the phone. Just when I think it’s over and she says “okay love you take care” and I’m like love you back and goodbye…she goes “oh did I tell you about the…”
  7. The teleprompter failed. It should be saying “if you don’t stop talking the balloons won’t drop properly and you won’t have your moment.”
  8. Is it a symptom of PTSD? It’s like I bet he hasn’t slept except when Don was speaking last night. Is he doing this all waking hours just talking like I do? There is no cure for this. I am sorry. Damn.
  9. Oh god Trump is like me on surly stream of consciousness. Fml. Hes a beating. I’m a beating but at least people can put me on ignore.
  10. I was already exhausted after the last 24 hours I have personally had but this is working better than melatonin. I just like watching the commentary afterwords. Isn’t there a “wrap it up” person out there? No. But I mean…
  11. Is it just me or when we were kids that the conventions mostly ended around 9:30 or 10 with about half an hour of commentary? Maybe I am remembering that wrong.
  12. WTF does this mean? I’ve heard rumors about Biden’s depo audio that (1) the audio is debate sounding awful and (2) that the audio doesn’t match the transcripts which were published back in March by WaPo. I chalked all that up to conspiracy theory bullshit and just rumors. This doesn’t sound very good. Not at all. I don’t know how credible people here find Politico or the person Kyle that tweeted this. Just sharing it.
  13. Yacht rock. Which I get why he is subdued. But the lead in was Kid Rock/Dana White. And he sounds like he’s reading a nursery rhyme “And the Cheeto was victorious” to make someone fall asleep. Like it’s night night time voice.
  14. It’s Trumpian or Dotardian party and most of them will do what he tells them to do. Pretty much. Thats my understanding of where Republican Party is, it is his party.
  15. You wouldn’t plead your case if you were Zelensky on the off chance that Trump Is elected? You wouldn’t try to talk to him? Open a dialogue? We can hate Trump all we want but if he is elected it doesn’t help Zelensky to not have some kind of dialogue with Trump just in case. other leaders around the world are watching all this and thinking the same. Many I’m sure are talking to or have talked to Kamala too. Or will be talking to whomever comes out of the convention as nominee for President. You have to open a dialogue and plead your case. I don’t see that as Zelensky doing something wrong. Other world leaders already have a dialogue with Trump bc he was President or bc he was shot.
  16. Katzneberg allegedly met with Biden in Nevada yesterday before the Covid and told him the money is drying up. And it was bad. K is his buddy. He wasn’t telling him like the politicians to drop out bc they worry about their own ticket. He wasn’t pointing to polls. That don’t mean shit this far out. He was saying we are fucked because there is no more money.
  17. I’ve been there with my grandmother and aunt. I don’t want to use the word fortunate but with my grandmother’s situation my grandfather passed before her. She was able to still live at home and my aunt and uncle lived just down the road. When she started declining she fought any discussion for the next stages of her life. One day she got on a ladder and fell and broke her arm which gave us the ability to put her “in the home” to recover while she thought it was temporary. By the time a month had passed she had adjusted in the Alzheimer’s home. No one knows what is wrong with Joe but I found his defiance to take a simple fucking MOCA test concerning. It’s a simple test. It should be given to anyone over 65 to make sure they don’t have dementia or Alzheimer’s or a host of other things that present that way. There are treatments and trials and radical diet changes to slow the spread of it and to help the person. I pray privately that he has been diagnosed and they are treating him bc he is a person. First and foremost. My 65 year old aunt failed that MOCA test badly. And the decline after the diagnosis was swift and merciless.
  18. A lot of us know a narcissist. this is the best way I’ve seen it put if you know one
  19. I am not in the market/trading what not but I guess this data is meant to show people feel like the news of Biden stepping aside is accurate.
  20. Yes. I would feel hugely betrayed. they basically put Kamala in witsec the last 4 years. And when it’s time to run again and have a primary Biden did not pass the torch as he said he would do. And not only that was largely absent from public eye not using the WH as the best home court advantage to campaign from. then when 3 weeks (a fucking lifetime in politics if a story doesn’t die in 10 days) have rolled by with everyone pretty much encouraging him to drop out he rolls to Delaware with Covid becoming more insulated and it is alleged he won’t endorse her after pandering to the black base in desperation after the wheels came off the campaign. That will be his legacy. And that’s ugly.
  21. I didn’t figure he would resign. But he still has to run the country. If he’s not going to endorse Kamala THOUGH thats an ugly way to end it for him and the party. Especially after going to BET and NAACP in the last few days and asking for their support telling them what all he has done for them. he will be around the WH as a bitter reminder. Hey I would be bitter too. But goddamn it, Joe, you shouldn’t have run again. He really is living up to Obama’s alleged statement. Speaking to a fellow Democrat about Joe Biden being the party’s nominee in 2020, Obama famously warned, “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f–k things up.”
  22. Thanks! Home from hospital. Won’t “Nicole” the thread by detailing it with my stuff. Damnit Bob Newhart died. If Biden is truly dug in and will not step aside the money will dry up. The leaders might be forced to 25th him. I can’t think of what else will work if he doesn’t step aside. It’s depressing and infuriating. He should not have run for a second term. Campaigning from the WH is a huge advantage and his inner circle of dipshits kept him from the press and everyone else for a year and 1/2. Last cabinet meeting 2023. Same for last solo presser (October and November respectively.) that’s malpractice as has been pointed out. He had the best advantage. Home court advantage: the WH! and most of us outside of the SoTU hadn’t seen his ass all year. Kamala or another candidate could have used that advantage and it was squandered. i blame him. And if he’s not to blame bc of mental decline I blame his inner circle. They took in tons of money (Trump raises money for both parties) and now it’s running out. I don’t care if the Dem convention is on zoom or only fans. Duck a fuck. Sorry tired. Will leave yall to fixing this mess and will vote for whoever comes out of it.
  23. I get why everyone is upset. when I am upset I want someone to be mad at and blame. Replace upset with livid, anxious, angry whatever you want. Had Joe passed the torch and not run again we aren’t facing the very real possibility of Trump winning again. The Dem leaders with this trickle down drip drip drip of defections to get Biden to step aside also helped to drastically dry up the money well. If he does step aside (I can’t see him stepping down as well) the real issue is the money injection from donors. this sucks.
  24. Now being seen at ER. At least I’m not in the waiting triage area. Cool. Getting an IV. so we went from Biden saying only the Lord could get him to leave race. then it was if he was shown he couldn’t win. now with BET interview: If I had some medical condition that emerged, if somebody, if doctors came to me and said, you got this problem and that problem,' Biden said in an interview with BET news.
  25. It’s the fact that stuff keeps getting leaked. Drip drip drip. Schiff says step down. Drip drip drip. Details of phone call leaked. Drip drip drip. It either has to be 100% effort to unite behind him or 100% to replace him. cool cool. Urgent care sending me to the ER. Fuck my life.
