Biden continued on: âSecondly, I understand the concern after the debate. I get it. We didnât have a great night, but weâre working hard and weâre going to be working to get it done ⦠Since the debate, the polls show a little movement and have me up a couple points.â
The donors broke into thunderous applause when the president said this about the polls. But what he said was false. Early public surveys immediately following the debate indicated that Biden was down overall a point or two, and surveys that asked respondents to rate the debate itself had him losing by midâdouble digits. As a means of damage control, the campaign leaked some of its own internal polling â which had been until recently regarded as a state secret â to argue that the debate had not moved the needle: The president was losing by a slim margin before Thursday night, and he was still losing by that slim margin after Thursday night. In the days that followed, the polls would only grow grimmer.
âIn fact,â Biden went on, âthe big takeaway are Trumpâs lies ⦠The point is, I didnât have a great night and neither did he.â
He returned to the central message of his campaign: âThe fact is that Donald Trump is a genuine threat to democracy, and thatâs not hyperbole. Heâs a genuine threat. Heâs a threat to our freedom, heâs a threat to our democracy, heâs literally a threat to America and what we stand for ⦠Ask yourself the question: If not for America, who would lead the world?â
Forgotten hoax: that âeach sideâ of an argument has merit.
Some people are just full of shit and get their kicks by saying anything just to get attention and an ego stroke.
Oh, for the days when there was a moderated Letters to the Editor instead of the full on disinformation fire hydrant/childishness that insists on tugging on our pants hems.
Fairly obvious you missed the point of Harmeet's post. But you be you, loyal Biden voter.

"Let me say this as clearly as I can: I'm staying in the race. I will beat Donald Trump. I will beat him again in 2020... and by the way we're going to beat him again in 2024."
They are correct. I can't wait for next week's cover commentary on why it's not good to let a convicted felon who believes he is above the law to be the leader of a nation of laws. Maybe a few weeks later we'll get some decent options and commentary on the things needed to be an effective leader?
The case against the degenerate (convicted or not) was/is more obvious. At least for some. The problem remains beating him.

Whether Trump is the one who actually saves the world, we donât know, but it is Biden who is mainly responsible for the war in Ukraine. It was he who had a Ukrainian Portfolio during the February 2014 coup over there, and the âf*ck EUâ Victoria Nuland, who coordinated this coup on the ground, admitted in the leaked phone conversation with US Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt.
More Russian disinfo... have they started paying you again Exo?

Boston Globe Why Biden should step aside For the good of the country, the president should graciously bow out of the race and free his delegates to cast their votes for someone else at the Democratic National Convention.
