The Presidential debate proved one thing. That one thing is that the American people did not gain any more knowledge in so far as policy or issues. Did the debate change any minds? The tricky part of the population are the undecided voters. Did the undecideds or Independents change their minds from watching the debate or did they say to themselves yes, I am voting for that person... that is unknown, but my hunch is that they are saying to themselves that Biden is in such decline that I cannot vote for him.
Are the Democrats asking themselves if Biden is still really their guy? I think they are worried but still I think the votes and the partisanship is so baked in that they are making excuses and still in denial over Biden and his ability to lead. Democrats may be secretly questioning Biden, but will they admit it? And will Democrats change their vote from D to R in November? They should be in panic mode but the D's in my orbit say they will vote Democrat. Jill Biden spoke after the debate saying that Joe did a great job and, "answered every question." The Bidens stopped at a local Atlanta Waffle House where Joe said he thought the debate, " went well." Kamala Harris also commented afterwards saying he had a, "strong finish." Really? Denial is a river in Egypt.
My belief is that the Biden administration called for this debate to see what and how Biden would do. A litmus test. They prepped him, dressed him up and propped him at the podium hoping for a magical fountain of youth to be bestowed on their leader. Their plan failed. You can't fool mother nature. It wasn't fun to see and in his defense his stutter comes out with nerves, I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. It was sad to see the most powerful man in the land struggle over issues and polices and confuse and combine things that made no sense.
But if the Democrats don't fix this, he will surely lose in November. The mainstream media is actually admitting something is wrong and they have flipped their script. But is this part of the Democrats plan? As quickly as they have boosted Biden, they are quick to take him down. One of CNN's political headlines today, "CNN-Flash Poll: Majority of debate watchers say Trump outperformed Biden."
So, what will the Biden's administration next move be? Media outlets like CNN are reporting today that he has committed to the next debate in September. Yikes, are they hoping for a different result? The debate was orchestrated by the Biden administration and all their rules not traditional debating guidelines. How would another debate done by real debating rules serve Biden better? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results.
Sadly, the biggest losers last night were neither Biden nor Trump, but the American people. We the people are currently the biggest losers due to lack of leadership. We need to show the world that we are still the superpower. The world is looking to us. This alone should bring the country together. We can do better, and we must do better. The best outcome would be for Biden to resign. Give Harris another position other than VP and move forward.
Ironically, perhaps the best thing that the debate brought was unity. We can all agree that Biden is in decline and there is nothing that can help him. We are at risk as a nation. If Biden really cares about, "Democracy," then he should resign for the sake of our republic.
The only thing for certain is that we don't know what the outcome of the election will be. We do know that it has been a crazy ride, and it will most likely continue to the bitter end. Stay tuned...
