President Biden brushed off concerns about his debate performance against former President Trump Thursday despite widespread panic among Democrats about how the night played out.

      Oh stop.

      I don’t like Biden, but he’s more connected to reality than the other guy.

      I do admit that I’d rather have a selection of more fit candidates. But either you’re either exaggerating, or drank the GOP koolaid.

      Lol. Are YOU in touch with reality? Biden at least told facts, while Trump just straight lied and tried not look like he was completely useless (which he is). He did nothing during his time in office, and blames literally everyone else when confronted with that fact.

        It’s not about whether you or I or the person you’re replying to is in touch with reality or not. It matters what the vast majority of the predominantly idiotic swing voters think in this country, and in that context, last night’s showing was not inspiring for the “please let’s not have fascism” team.

        And I am calling swing voters idiots nowadays because with what the parties, candidates, and stakes are these days, you would have to at best be a genuine idiot, and at worst an outright fascist/theocratic fascist to seriously consider voting for Trump.
