Doing well in a confrontational interview is something that Biden needed actually so I don't know what the issue is tbh.

He mostly was coherent in the debate his delivery just sucked and it was very much for old man reasons.

and even if someone thinks "well I don't like/look at porn so why should it be a priority for me?" it's important to remember that when christofascists say "porn" they also mean age-appropriate comprehensive sex education, media with queer/trans people in it, and picture books about gay penguins.

It should be easier since this is just one party but the party loves using its primary process to undermine it's own progressive incumbents instead of, say, building strong campaigns in contested states (yes I'm salty about Jamaal Bowman)

And then the guy who rules the universe turned out to be just like, some completely detached guy who spent the whole day debating his own existence in a state of complete solipsism and he isn't even sure if it's the answers he gives to questions or his cat's answers that make the calls.

Sorry you can't just yell at people to stop talking about it. All the politically uninformed mouth breathers this propaganda is aimed at will keep doing it. Either you think this is bad enough Biden should step down or you think he can repel it successfully

Lots of people saying that talking about Biden's age is the new "but her emails!" But not acknowledging that this is an admission that they think those attacks will be effective in costing him the election just like the emails thing was.

Apparently the government of the Yucatán recently erected a Poseidon statue on one of their major beaches. It’s a very heavily Mayan area, where people still pray to Chaac, the god of rainfall. They’re now being slammed with 3 hurricanes and significant flooding, leading to memes like this

So yea I think where the risk assessment of replacing Biden for someone else is concerned I think it's obviously still with independents thinking that makes the dems look weak before the election not with dem turnout being depressed.

Polling all seems to indicate voters broadly don't want Biden at the top here. Even democrats. We didn't see a huge contested primary where voters were extremely invested in the result. Yes lots of people acted like Biden winning the primary was a manifestation of Dem sentiment but be real.

I have one issue with the idea that replacing Biden would upset voters who actively want Biden at the top of the ticket (i.e the ones who bothered to vote in the primary) The issue being I don't think those voters wouldn't just vote dem anyway

I know the conservatives justices are only 6 dudes but can we start refering to the Supreme Court as The Nazgul If you are in a different country with a Supreme Court in your country you should also be comparing them to demon horsemen. Big tip.

Does it really count as breaking TOS if you're just hoping for the president to do an official act of office that is immune from prosecution.

My official position of presidential immunity is that the president ordering a drone strike on the high priests who ruled on this, while being a direct attack on American institutions, would not constitute an attack on American democracy. It would also be very funny.

My point is that if you recognize the importance of delivery and you acknowledge his delivery was trash you're dismissing those "theories" way too quickly. Doesn't matter if he says the right words if he can't deliver them right. Trump isn't rhetorically unbeatable

I am familiar with this and i've used it before My only problem is that they're probably using a neural network for it because that's in vogue right now and that's both overkill in terms of resources spent and not an effective way to implement this either.

So is your position that Biden's demeanor and delivery during the whole thing was flawless and didn't affect at all the quality of his rhetoric or nah?

I think you're obfuscating the fact that looking like a corpse substantially affects how well you do at delivering a point to an audience and that seriously messes with the conclusions you can draw about the talking points themselves.

His opponent is so shitty, I agree, which is why most people with experience in public speaking could've said most of the same words Biden said without looking like a decrepit mess and Trump would've looked bad.

A lot of the cope since the debate seems to be stuff like "Biden said all the right words" And I agree. He *did* say all the right words. But it is a debate and you have to both say the right words *and* not sound like a weak old man while the other guy smirks at you
