"But lost in the hand wringing was Donald Trump’s usual bombastic litany of lies, hyperbole, bigotry, ignorance, and fear mongering. His performance demonstrated once again that he is a danger to democracy and unfit for office.”

“In fact, the debate about the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump.”

    He’s old, it was his bedtime and instead we asked him to go to a debate. He did just fine, and there was nothing incoherent about it.

    Seriously. Unlike Trump, who spent his entire Presidency ranting on Twitter all night and golfing all day… Biden probably goes to bed early both because he’s old and because he spends his days actually doing his job. The debate performance was disappointing, I get it. But the media acting like he’s being Weekend at Bernie’s Dianne Feinstein’d around D.C. is ridiculous. It sucks that this is where we’re at as a country… but “old guy” vs. “old guy who wants a fascist dictatorship” should not be a fucking struggle for voters.

      Yeah, that’s what we want: A guy who couldn’t handle waking up in an emergency. /s

      Face it libs, he looked like he was ready to croak. And I fucking HATE Donald Trump. But you are pulling another notorious RBG if you think keeping Biden in the race is good for the country. Instead, it’s just becoming easy to see who the neolib shills really are; they’re the only ones desperate enough to defend this.

      For real put in literally anyone else and you can beat Trump. Fucking literally ANYONE.

        As I said:
