Yup. And Joe’s team is a very competent one, in complete contrast to the wretched hive of scum and villainy that was the previous administration.

Relax.

Joe's doing a great job and has always been gaffe prone, it's part of being Joe. I couldn't care less if he makes gaffe's, gets people's name wrong or forgets the date. The bottom line is he's already achieved a great deal, has a great team behind him and is a very safe pair of hands at a difficult time for the world.

Joe Biden in a coma, on life support and clinically dead would still be 100 x preferable to Donald Trump.

Correct, and Joe has a great team. Because he is an incredibly experienced politician and possibly the most qualified man ever elected as POTUS. So he knows how to pick people.

You don't hear about them much because they are busy delivering results. Such as great employment numbers (more Americans working today than at any time in history), low inflation, a terrific infrastructure program that is making a huge difference to people all over the country, a veterans bill that is helping many wounded veterans who were ignored by Trump, the important CHIPS act, the Safer Communities act, moving America forward after COVID, the ARP, the Respect for Marriage act, confirmation of 177 judges, passing legislation that for the first time allows Medicare to negotiate the price of drugs, passing legislation that prevents discriminatory lending practices, lifting many people out of poverty by forgiving student debt, making renewables the second biggest source of energy production in the US etc.. etc...

This administration has achieved far more in three years than most achieve in two terms.

The question being put to voters at the end of the year is not that one, it's whether Biden can complete almost four more years from the end of the year as commander in chief. that's almost five years from now.

The answer is no, regardless of who Biden would face on the ballot.

What is your evidence for that? Like actual evidence not just your opinion from the Costa Blanca. Because from here in America I don't see it.

Looks like Joes toast. Looking at the news tonight the MSM have now turned on him with articles titled ‘it’s all over for Joe’ and even ‘Is Jill Biden really running the country!’ Etc etc.

Who do we think the Dems will bring out to replace him, won’t be long now once the media turn on you and support drys up.

USA’s credibility in the world is slipping year by year. Best they can come up with is Trump and Biden neither fit to run the country. Seems no other decent candidates just like most the countries in the world it’s a big mess

The “he’s too old” tack is a bit self defeating given that the presumptive candidate from the Reps is old and batty (amongst other more heinous things).

I’d wager a small amount of money on Joe outliving Donald given their respective conditions. I think most people would rather Joe handed over to a younger candidate but he’s kinda been forced into sticking around to keep Trump out of the White House. A shame because I think he’s earned a retirement.

He no longer has a choice but to stand down. The wheels have completely fallen off after this week of gaffs. He wouldn’t remain as a CEO for a week, let alone a president. He’s turned into a character from The Simpsons. Not a good look in the world stage.

With respect, if you've not seen evidence to your satisfaction by now then you probably won't see it. It reminds me of all the momentum lot on twitter who are still demanding evidence of Corbyn's antisemitism.

I disagree.

The ballot papers are as good as printed. Trump or Biden. You can have a geriatric criminal or a geriatric with a history of working for his people. Seems like a pretty easy decision to me.

But you’re fine with Nancy Pelosi and Nicky Haley being confused with each other, or Obama being the incumbent President, or Tim Apple, being the CEO of Apple. Then there’s the dead whales caused by wind, taking the airports in the War of independence, said he should be dating his own daughter. There’s a good 5 minutes worth here, and these are just the best ones, not all of them. You won’t watch it though, you’ll pretend Biden is the only one who has made gaffes.

Trump's "team". Hmmm.

Peter Navarro is due to report for prison any day. Bannon will be joining him soon after. Mark Meadows, although indicted in GA appears to have flipped to Jack Smith in the Federal cases. Roger Stone would be in prison if Trump hadn't pardoned him. Manafort served 22 months in prison and would have served more if Trump hadn't pardoned him. Rick Gates was jailed, fined and put on probation. Jenna Ellis, Sidney Powell, Kenneth Chesebro et al pleaded guilty in GA. Bill Barr now despises him and thinks he's unfit, as does Jim Mattis, Mark Esper, John Bolton, H R McMaster, TY Cobb, John Kelly, Mark Milley and Rex Tillerson (remember Rex)? etc.. Then there's Omarosa Manigault and Michael Cohen.............. Not to mention Mike Pence!

Who's left? rofl

I think pretty much all of us agree we'd rather see much younger candidates.

But the choice appears to be an old, somewhat forgetful but decent bloke with a long and distinguished life of public service or an old sexual molester traitor malignant narcissist with a life of self-service and almost unbelievable incompetence.

The Dems fked up before by putting Hillary against him, I worry they're fking up again. I don't think Trump has a chance against a normal candidate, I think he has a big chance against Biden.

I don’t want to sound like a Debbie Downer but when a presidential candidate doesn’t know when he served as a vice president surely alarm bells ought to be ringing?

The relevant bit in the report is opinion; it's quite odd wording, innuendo perhaps, and worth exactly that. One man's forgetful old man losing his marbles is another's truculent and crochety old git who's fed up being asked irrelevant questions by a partisan hack frustrated that he can't find anything worthy of a misdemeanour. The 5 hour interview happened on the 8th of October last year and Joe may have had a shorter than normal fuse due to work-related stress.
