President Joe Biden will hold a closely watched news conference on Thursday, marking another high-stakes moment for the president to show off his ability to answer questions in an unscripted setting.

    This is news? Being able to do this shouldn’t be a question. It might be a challenge for him if he did it after dark.

        Yup, because people who saw the debate also had those same doubts. Trump lied, but that was expected and pointed out in several articles after the fact. Biden could barely even debate. He was a shadow of his former self and has no business being in that office.

          He sounded old and has a speech impediment. The content of his answers was sound to anyone that listened. The media and many people on social media have pivoted from attacking him on Israel to his stumbles during the debate. Biden being old is the strongest argument Republicans have against him and everyone that keeps parroting that message is only helping Trump. Most Israel coverage has slowed to a crawl, but stories about Israel and Biden have all but stopped. Quite the coincidence. It’s been extremely effective at turning people off from Biden, the vast majority of which didn’t watch a second of the debate.

            So deny the elephant in the room because Trump might win? No thanks. All they need to do is nominate a candidate who might some day see the consequences of their decisions. Trump is, among many other terrible things, a rapist who tried to overthrow the government and worked to take away women’s healthcare. I firmly believe any sane centrist candidate could beat him.
