Great convo. Very much respect Alex for keeping journalism alive in MSM. But “conservative” media, such as Fox, Tucker, PJMedia, Townhall and others have been writing about the obvious medical issues of Joe Biden since the Basement, now Bunker campaign. It’s not as though there were isolated falls and fails. It was every month. For two years, I’ve been saying he would not seek election given the obvious issues and I’m just an ordinary news junkie.

I think the debate was a set up engineered by Obama & apparatchiks. Who do you think power couple Dunn & Bauer owe loyalty to? Clearly the King of Kalorama is directing policy. Iran anyone? Absolutely hatred for Bibi? Obama was never interested in much beyond his Middle East realignment that enables Iran to be the dominant player with Israel, an American proxy to the Mullah’s Hezbollah and other Hs.

Even if Biden was demanding a debate, would he have chosen a 9:00 start? Absurd. The thinking was simple, stop with the prevent defense. Expose the man to a wider audience after hiding him for almost 4 years. If he performed well, great! Maybe he would begin poll better. But if he performed as expected, the defenestration can begin. And on cue, the MSM did a 180. What can we learn from this highly skilled, and well executed plan? One, Jill and Hunter are idiots. 2. The DNC is a cut throat organization consumed with power. 3. Obama continues to run the show.

I think he will drop out as he will continue to see his brain defrost. Is Stephanopoulus a friendly interlocutor? Maybe in the past but new memo has been distributed. Personally, I have absolutely no empathy for this corrupt pol. He’s quite despicable.

I'm in agreement with you on Biden being set up for this. The powerbrokers just want to remain in power. It has nothing to do with Biden. After doing everything they could to get Trump installed as the Republican candidate thinking he would be damaged goods from the lawfare and the one candidate that Biden could beat, their strategy fell apart as it became clear that the legal cases were going nowhere or even helping Trump. So now Biden had to go.

The media is in my view all in on this. They are pretending to be surprised to find out that Biden isn't mentally competent, but will there be any investigation into how they were duped? Real journalists would be incensed and out for blood if a Republican admin had managed such duplicity. In this case it will all be forgotten and the gaslighting will resume once a new Democratic nominee is in place.

Truly sickening stuff.
