Do any of our left of center friends believe that Biden's mental acuity issues and coverup were scandals?
Biden's "decline" question for my liberal friends
- Thread starter PittMan2003
- Start date
I don’t think it was a scandal but no one took matters into their own hands to either prop him up or keep out of the public eye. When Reagan was president, in his second term, he was out of it and Nancy was standing in for him and nobody said a word.
He was certainly in a state of mental decline, similar to Trump, a little worse. If there was a cover-up of medical records or other steps taken to be untruthful about his condition, then sure, it would be a scandal.
They kept him out of the public eye as far back as the campaign. Remember when they hid him in the basement? Lefties will say he only deteriorated at the end but it was obvious even before he was elected. At least to those who paid attention and were honest.
To think that 81 million people voted for him…
Correct. He was senile even before he was elected in 2020. The basement campaign really worked for him.
I am just curious to see if any of our leftest friends can be intellectually honest on this one.
It's a gradual decline. He was pretty sharp in 2018 when he announced and did his touring. We all have family like this. 1 year, 2 years can make a massive difference. I don't think he was fully incapacitated by the end of his term like many people do but he certainly was in some stage of decline.
Do I believe it was in decline? 100%
Was he too old to be president? 100%
Was his mental decline managed and hidden to some degree yes?
A scandal? Do you really think someone in serious mental decline could stand in front of 500 people and give 20 minute speeches 2-3 times a week? I really don't.
Old people do stupid shit and Biden was prone to do stupid shit before he got old.
80 is too old to be president anyway you slice it.
Not defending Biden but I think when his son died it took a lot out of him which I believe started the mental decline.
You got that right. That might have also been the reason they kept him in the basement.
As Obama famously said “never underestimate joes ability to fvck things up”
And of course even from the basement, he managed to insult 10’s of millions of black people in a friendly interview with Charlamane.
But somehow Hispanics and 18-29 turnout for him was massive.
Bidens decline was not a secret to anyone. If the right actually thinks liberals thought Biden was intact, they are more gullible than I thought. Voters didn’t vote for Biden in 2020, they voted against trump. The difference is Biden’s circle was relatively competent to run things around him. 40-50% stock market gains, world’s best response to global inflation, etc. 100 days in and the orange man is yelling Vladimir stop!. Official trump 2028 hats went on sale today. Any white dem man will beat him in 2028, it really is that simple.
Dotard donny is basically a delusional moron at this point. Do you have an issue with this?
This is what happens when you have incompetent and stupid people around you. You do stupid things and say stupid stuff.
We all know tariffs paid by the Chinese (and penguins) will clear all federal debt...
A lot of “But Trump” answers. Unfortunately not much intellectual honesty.
Let them whistle through the graveyard. They were sure Hillary would win before they were sure Kamala would win. Anything can happen.
IMO I just think the whole timing of the "Pandemic" and the whole campaigning from the basement were perfect timing for the dem party .. Had a good excuse to actually cover up Biden's ineptitude . And for the left , it worked ...
What's a women? What are the pronouns they identify with?
Campaigning and crowd sizes are extremely overrated though. Kamala had some massive crowds. Who cares. Political rallies are stupid AF. Biden was always going to win because people blamed Trump for mishandling Covid and the Social Justice stuff helped.
Speaking of massive crowd, this looks like a rally for an “unpopular” President.
2020 would have been a comfortable win for Trump if not for covid. That was the perfect storm for sleepy joe.
Couldn't agree more. I think the democratic operatives let covid out of the Wuhan lab on purpose knowing that Trump was a shoe in for a 2nd term. They are a disgrace and would do anything to attain power and get Trump out. They tried like hell to keep him from that 2nd term. They tried to put him in jail, they tried to bankrupt him, hell, they even tried to kill him. The truth on stuff like this never comes out, but, those who believe covid originated from a Chinese wet market need help.
Trump has the lowest approval rating at the 100 day mark of any President going to back to Bush and by a lot according to Foz News. He trails Trump 1 by 1 point. He is really unpopular. He beat 2 horrible candidates. Congrats to him.

Not a huge fan of approval ratings. He is unpopular. So what, really. To be fair, part of the reason he is so unpopular is because he can't run again so he's doing a bunch of unpopular shit. If he could run again, he wouldn't have tanked the economy on purpose.
That’s exactly right. He was incredibly popular a month ago. Now he’s making the tough decisions that aren’t going to reflect well in the polls.
Frankly it’s bold. We thought putting a democracy in the Middle East was bold and noble. That didn’t work out well. We shall see here if this is just as bad.
You know what was really bold?
Running on a platform that was going lower prices for Americans and stop foreign wars. Accomplishing none of it, besides border control, and counting on 40% of the county to still defend him.
It set the stage for an unprecedented mail in vote campaign as we were all told it was not safe to go to the poll sites in person. It's not all that crazy, only to you the super educated! LolI hear Western Psych can work wonders. Check it out.

The virus probably did come out of the Wuhan lab but I promise it wasn't some global conspiracy to get Biden elected. Sometimes bad stuff just happens. Not everything has a sinister explanation.
And that's the big reason for his historically low approval rating. He is getting high marks on immigration but that's it really. He's getting hammered on inflation and the economy. Prices remaining high isn't his fault. As we know, the President doesn't set grocery store prices but a shit ton of extremely unintelligent people voted for him because he promised to lower grocery prices. He knew he couldn't do it. He lied. But that’s what politicians do.
You forgot DOGE has resulted in the more spending by the federal government by this administration. GDP has cratered. The Epstein files with his bestie dotard donny all over them, hasn't been released 🤔.
You do realize that border control is a big deal, right? Why wasn’t it done the last 4 years? Lighten up Francis. It’s April.

Someone is admitting dorard donny's first 100 days has been an unmitigated disaster.
