    Arrogance, disconnected from context

    He made a point about the number one cause of death is a bullet for kids but you want to deflect cuz, why? I assumed you didn’t care but maybe it’s something else.

    Unless a poll says I can't win...weird whisper...no poll says that

    Less than 5 minutes after he said polls weren't reliable

    Because I think abortion is the real number one cause of kids being killed and he went there about freedom of women's bodies.

    on a ten point scale, if his debate performance was a 2 ( being generous), this news conference was better than that but he didn't knock it out of the park either. Maybe a 5, 6 tops. We shall see how the spin cycle does and whether the noise abates or not.
    Have to factor in his baseline before: he has always had a stutter and was a gaffe machine even when he was younger. Unforced errors do not help.

    Not good enough to quell the calls to step down not bad enough to drive him out.

    He should have come out whispering “I see dead people” and then break straight into a crip walk singing Kendrick Lamar. The race would be over!

    Virtue signaling. If you thought kids were being killed you wouldn’t sit around and bitch on a website.

    Kids aren’t killed by abortion. Fetuses are.

    I take 0 as "send him to a dementia ward" and 10 as the 2024 version of Reagan's "I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience".

    The optimum for Trump -- Biden 100% stays as nominee but is 100% in clear cognitive decline -- is about a 5. This performance struck me as 3 or 4. (Context: I plan to hold my nose and vote for Biden, but wouldn't feel the need for nose-hold-age with Harris.)

    But that is a bogus number considering approx 2900 kids 13-19 died in auto crashes in 2022 and around another thousand under 13. Seems to me we should outlaw automobiles along with guns since more children are killed in auto crashes. Don't you think Joe?

    Which you could argue is the worst case scenario, unless you are Team Trump.

    We are talking about the President of the United States and not someone running to be head of an over 65 retirement community.

    Tonight was another brutal performance in what was far from a normal unscripted press conference. The Dems need to find a way to get rid of Biden.
