Jon Stewart's Debate Analysis: Trump's Blatant Lies and Biden's Senior Moments | The Daily Show - Lemmy.World

First of all- I agree concerns about both their ages are very much valid here but hasn’t Biden had a stutter from a very young age and struggled with it most of his life? Surely we should cut the guy some slack here?

That said, of course there won’t be slack. Political debates (especially one of high stakes as this one) are cut throat and no one has room for error.

hasn’t Biden had a stutter from a very young age and struggled with it most of his life?

That would be a no.

And even when not speaking during tonight’s debate, he often looked totally bewildered. >

To be fair, my partner and I also looked totally bewildered by the things falling out of Trump’s face. I don’t know that he actually answered a single question, but rather spouted the same racist nonsense over and over.

That’s a silver lining.

Biden looks like he’s on the verge of croaking, so maybe, just maybe, we’ll get a black, female fascist enabler instead of an old white male fascist enabler for once.

And so the cycle will continue until rank choice voting gets through. 🫠

It’s unavoidable.

Remember in 2016 when we learned 40,000,000 Americans couldn’t absorb an unexpected $400 expense without going further into debt? That number has almost certainly exploded since then, with the housing crises and massive inflation that America has been forced to endure. I doubt those people are going to forego a badly needed day’s pay to vote for one of these two assholes when the last eight years has reinforced emphatically how little they care about the poor and working class.
