Americans are the real losers after the first presidential debate last night.
Watching Donald Trump and Joe Biden on stage during CNN’s debate made me a little sick, because it proved that the “conspiracy theories” surrounding the mental state of the current President of the free world are true. The entire debate was wildly unfair, because President Trump wiped the floor with a dementia-laden old man who had difficulty stringing together a coherent thought.
President Trump was the most controlled I had ever seen him and I believe that was his strategy all along. He didn’t need to yell, name call or, honestly, even speak because he knew as soon as the conversation went to Joe that the current president would fall on his face.
Never mind the fact that Joe consistently lied about every “fact” he threw in Trump’s face and did nothing but insult the former president, when he wasn’t speaking his mouth fell open like a cod fish and he just stared blankly into oblivion like a mental patient drugged up in a hospital.
This begs the question – who is actually running our country, because it is not Joe Biden.
Four years ago, conservatives warned against Joe Biden’s mental capacity and the left screamed foul. Now, Republican Representative Chip Roy (R-Texas) is urging Vice President Harris to invoke the 25th amendment to remove the elderly, forgetful man from the White House. How laughable we have become as a so called “super power”.
In addition, almost every major liberal news network scrambled to run the “replacement” narrative last night and this morning. In fact, during the debate the “Joe has a cold” propaganda started trending on X, which was extremely convenient.
What I really hate to say is that CNN actually did a decent job despite the moderator’s attempts to save Biden from rambling on like a poor fool. Tapper and Bash couldn’t jump in for every gaffe, although I’m sure they wanted to – like when Joe claimed Border Patrol endorsed him. Fun fact, Border Patrol immediately posted on X saying “uh, no we didn’t and no we ain’t” – I might be paraphrasing there.
Quite honestly, last night’s debate gave me an ever loving hangover – not because I played any of the debate drinking games, but because I think after 90 minutes of Joe I am genuinely dumber than I was before.
