    Because after the last debate, where Biden stood slack-jawed and confused for 90 minutes and failed to fill most of his 2-minute answer slots or even complete most of his sentences, he DESPERATELY needs to prove to people that he can think and act on his feet.

    In an effort to prove that, he’s made a series of teleprompted remarks and done interviews with preselected questions. He should be holding townhalls, but instead he’s taking softballs.

    So instead of proving the narrative wrong, he is continuing to reinforce the widespread belief among voters that he is incapable of showing that he’s with it and is nothing more than a senile old man being abused by those around him so they can remain in power. Agree or not - that’s the perception and Biden is reinforcing it every day he doesn’t take real, hard-hitting questions on the fly without the help of a teleprompter or friendly audience/interviewer.

      I don’t disagree with any of this but why would I respect party Kommissars injecting shiti propaganda into my feed?

      If DNC feels this way, say it out loud and propose a new guy.

      This is pathetic and does not resonate with anyone vaguely tuned in. These boomers need to adjust their shiti playbooks and listen to their wage slaves…

        I must be way out of the loop. Aside from a brand of coolers, what does “shiti” mean?

        I don’t work for the DNC and I’m not a boomer. I’m just a 30-something Bernie-bro who can read polls and knows Biden is losing EVERY SINGLE SWING STATE to Trump right now, and the numbers get worse every week as the cracks in the Biden facade become more apparent. And I really don’t want Trump to win.

          I was talking about DNC handlers spinning this shit, not you here.

          The spin is limp dick here… i am not commenting if Biden should stay or go, i don’t care either. I am voting third party as protest vote.
