I suspect next debate (if there is one...) they will actually give Biden his speedball that the dems seem so keen on denying that he receives (the latest SOTU speech is an obvious example but there's many others), his performance will be passable, he'll actually vomit out the liberal word salad talking points in a way that can be parsed out with 2 second sound bites, Trump will still be unhinged, and the smarmiest dipshits will say "wow, how did we ever doubt this beautiful 1000 y/o fossil?" They've already set everything up for to happen, I sort of suspected they were doing it when the CNN hosts were nearly in tears, but the Mourning Joe bit where Mika (sp?) was nearly crying over poor old joe! cemented it for me.
I hope I'm wrong...
It's possible that they're playing 4D chess by letting Biden have a bad first debate, just so they can come back with a stronger second debate. I don't know why they'd do that right before the Democratic convention but no one ever accused Democrats of being strategic masterminds.
It's also possible that he has rapidly declined since the SotU three months ago and he's going to be so much worse by September.
Yeah the alternate scenario is the drugs just arent working anymore.
I highly encourage them to keep pumping him with experimental blends of amphetamines and other uppers. Just go full Hitler's doctor mode. Let's see how far we can push his corpse
Yeah I'm a stim-maxxing ice creamcel
this seems more likely to me
Yeah, I didn't really mean they did this fully on purpose, although it reads that way, I just meant like whatever they were doing obviously imploded immediately (maybe the meth serum was off) and the CNN producers/talking heads (and across the DNC broadly) immediately jumped into "replace him!" mode. Now that Biden, his team, and other high up dems have seemingly squashed this easy way out for them, they'll probably just see if they get a passable second debate and then do what I was saying.
And just to be clear, I don't think this was all pre-orchestrated. I think many of these CNN types were delusional and then when they saw his performance totally unedited and live, they said "well, obviously that's a fucking wrap!" But since they're such cucks to power when Biden and others said he will remain they just immediately backed down like "oh, sorry, we're still rooting for Joe!" And next debate, if he does a passable job, will be their reason to say he still has it, they judged too early, etc.
That is the script they seem to be following. First debate they blame the stutter, second debate they hook him up to a meth IV and let him cook.
My money’s on this one, and that the drugs aren’t working anymore because of how much further he’s declined.
Thinking about this some more, there seems to be broad based consensus that Biden has to knock it out of the park next debate to salvage his chances... Why wouldnt trump just pull out?
