    But only a few weeks ago the media said this is the best Biden has ever been. Sharp as a tack.
  • 6k+ views and 100 likes. Talk about being ratioed. Nobody buys this biased media crap anymore. Stop the pandering, stop the lies.
  • Too late. We saw the decline years ago. The debate failure was not new news. The cover up was over.
  • @VelGer-hq7ms
    The question is: when will Jill Biden step out of the race?
  • Biden’s team reveals a very troubling truth: Joe Biden is as sharp as he’s ever been.
  • Gerry can look, pray and deflect, but it ain't happening in his lifetime.
  • Good old Gerry was part of the sharp as a tack crowd, and now this. His credibility is shot.
  • @Tellmewhynow
    what we saw during the debate we cannot UNSEE anymore. media should stop covering up for biden
  • If this guy did not see this already he should not be in politics.
  • @my1vice
    That's a bad sign..... I'm not really good at my job, but I've never been asked to prove that i am not an imbecile.
  • @randomguy1928
    The democrats go on about trump but then never realize they're helping the very person they hate.
  • @Grammy52
    Doggett may have just lost his re-election campaign.
  • @m.schetr7398
    What do you mean looking for reassurance that Biden can do the job. I'm pretty sure he won't get better. Just my understanding. My mother didn't get better so stop saying Biden is going to be able to do it. He has had trouble for over a year now. And its getting worst.
  • Jill won't go quietly. There's too much money in the campaign coffers.
  • MUST have A DOCTOR'S REPORT for the BETTER GOOD for ALL AMERICANS VOTE Thank you 🌹
  • Dear voters, It was just one bad night. Hey, folks have those every now and then. Let's all chill. Yours truly, The Titanic
  • America once had more beauty for landscapes but the money of the wealthy has triumphed our landscapes into money making businesses. The poor had lost it's beauty. America once had power with we the people but we the people of the poor had no power and the poor had lost it's word. America once had prestige with landscapes of beauty, with people and with their word but from the steps we walk to the lifts we ride the prestige has all affordable's and the poor had but to scrape for a landscape, for words, and for life.
