If members of the press are worried they didn’t give enough coverage to the cognitive decline of a sitting president, they have an amazing opportunity to make up for it right now.

Gotta sell his book right? It all comes down to that w/ some of these guys.
I'll forgive him if he puts that same enthusiasm in his coverage of Trumps actual decline, maybe his next book, and how no one, not even the f'in press mentions it.
What sort of coverup is that? FFS
I actually think it's the least courageous thing to do. Biden is no longer in power and he believes in the freedom of press. The really courageous thing to do would be to cover the decline of the current president. The thug and autocrat. Destroying a good man was a cake-walk...
Hard to give credit since Biden's decline was clearly covered & even overstated. Meanwhile, Trump on the campaign trail sounded delusional yet was met by most of the press with crickets. Sounds more like cognitive dissonance on their part to justify helping to put Trump in office.
It doesn’t seem like you’re making good faith arguments if you want to pretend that Biden has severe dementia but that the current president is mentally sound.
You have repeatedly attacked Biden’s mental competency in your posts but haven’t said a thing about Krasnov’s dementia & instead claimed that pointing this out “flipped” voters.
But I see you’re focused on personal attacks… so I’ll conclude you aren’t arguing in good faith.
Even the night of the debate when Trump did the Gish Gallup, Biden recovered and still stated facts. It just bothers me that a couple of hours later he was just fine when he went out to meet people. What kind of cold medicine did he take? I wonder.
he was cognitively fine the whole time. his voice was weaker than normal because he was sick. it also made his stutter more prominent. plus the camera angle for Trump was straight on & angled for Biden.
FYI, Latino voters who watched the debate with Spanish translation said Biden won it hands-down.
Goddamn right it was inflated and sensationalized while they spent every waking moment sane-washing and elevating Trump. Sick of the mass media not taking a shred of responsibility for any of this
They would never do the same to Trump—and his checked-out-ness is an order of magnitude worse—but, we all saw a dramatic diminishment in Biden’s capacity to do rhetoric at the June debate!
I have to wonder why exactly idiots like Alex Thompson think Biden dropped out of the race to begin with, if it wasn’t because of the constant talk about his supposed mental decline. Or do they think Biden was the one on the ballot in 2024?
Joe Biden has a stutter & shockingly the older he gets, the more he struggles. But pay attention to what he says. The facts he retains, the numbers he recites. The vocabulary he uses. Yes, he's slower than he was a VP. He's older. But he remains capable to lead unlike the felon who never was.
Truth??? WTAF? We were doing very well.
Now this felon insane lunatic our country is destroyed. And this ahole is still complaining about Biden. Fk that
Thompson is going to be reminding people of that throughout the next four years. Every time somebody starts criticizing Trump for destroying the economy and obliterating democratic rights and freedoms, Thompson will be reminding people Biden was in decline.
I'm livid. I can't believe he said that. They always seem to find their balls when it comes to Dems even if it's speculation & starts getting traction in the rw media. Can't stand him.
With the multiple, daily crises occurring right now, focusing on Biden’s age and the state of his mental acuity sounds hopelessly out of touch. For the record, he got old. He slowed down. He will pass away. Just like the Pope. End of story.
No. He was visibly impaired as far back as 2019, and the media went along with the lie, and THAT is why we have Trump. And as long as Democrats keep lying to themselves about what happened, nothing will change.
💯 The thing is, despite declining, Biden had a very accomplished & competent group of people working around him so I never ever had any worries. Unlike this current clown show we have right now.
Indeed. At the end of the day we’ll likely not know for a long time just how many of his accomplishmemts ought be attributed to him. But a presidents term is also reflected in their administration. And he had a solid one
Who gives a fk. He got the best people around him.
We can’t say that now at all. 47
Will have no accomplishments except to destroy our constitution and country: I can’t believe you all are talking about Biden right now. You all are as bad as msm
Max Berger is linked to the left-right group of Bernie Bros led by Ryan Grim & Trumper Rich McHugh who in 2019 united to smear Biden by lying about the frequent failures of Joe's stutter control efforts. Biden-hating lefty writers started calling his stutter "cognitive decline" & Fox picked up on it
No, he doesn't, you idiot! Why isn't he blasting to the hills about the cognitive decline of a SITTING president? Why isn't he screaming FASCIST, KING, DICTATOR-wannabe to the monster president who delights in torturing us and taking down our democracy??
Right. So you're a Portlander and ... Who's out of power? And who are they speaking truth -- to? As an editor, the post is ambiguous. Reading it as someone just reading it, my interpretation seems to be right on.
there is no credible source. if i think someone is 'in mental decline' i can write about it and people will emperor's new clothes that right into oblivion.
Please stop. Biden did amazing things and this is nauseating already. When you can no longer afford your insulin, b/c of the barrage of negative Biden coverage which created trump/maga win, then talk to me. STFU and cover the shit show, at this very moment, steamrolling over USA
They failed long before Biden's so-called decline. The press put access and profit before holding the first Trump administration accountable for all the lies, crimes, theft, extortion, treason, failures, and insurrection. They shrugged their shoulders as if it were all normal. A complete failure.
That’s why I shut off MSM in 2023. They rarely if ever talked about Biden’s accomplishments, but normalized the felon. They spoke so much about the felon you thought he was the one in office. Independent media is where I get my news.
Thompson doesn't give a shit about Biden's supposed cognitive decline. That statement was made for an audience of 1. It was made so that 47 will be nice to him & his org. The last thing they will cover would be the 🍊🤡's declining mental faculties. Take Axios off your list of trusted news sites.
No. I recall many saying stop bullying him and focus on what he was actually doing for the American people. Even Biden kept saying "YES, I AM OLD" We didn't care then, we don't give a shit now. Give that same energy to the guy who fell asleep at the Pope's funeral and renamed the Gulf of Mexico.
No, Alex, you're wrong. We don't trust you because of your refusal to call out obvious lies from the current administration. It doesn't matter how far into fascism he pulls our country, the press refuses to call it or him out.
In the past week, MSNBC has begun to use the term "fascist" to describe this administration. My husband has an unhealthy relationship with MSNBC until Hockey Night in Canada comes on.
They have completely sold out. When our entire govt has been hijacked and our economy is sliding off a cliff, our judicial system is being tested like never before in history and that is all the F they got. Yeah....they got issues for sure, go look in the mirror. Damn this pisses me off.
tRump, vAnts & jOhnson are criminals. They disappear, kidnap & traffic immigrants & US citizens (children with stage 4 cancer) to foreign countries, blatantly ignoring direct rulings of federal courts. Every agency provided to help Americans is rendered ineffective. WE THE PEOPLE MUST STOP THIS 5/1
F off 'journalists'. Because you focused on the so-called 'Biden's decline', you let the wolf in the back door. YOU PEOPLE ARE WHY THE USA IS WHERE IT IS NOW. F off.
It’s time all Democrat governors, Congressional Representatives and Senators unite and tell Trump ICE isn’t allowed to operate in their state unless everyone has due process. Local law enforcement must stand against illegal arrests & deportations.
President Biden is still and ALWAYS HAS BEEN 1000x more intelligent, has 1000x more integrity (dt in the negative here), 1000x better leader, better Father, better husband, better friend, 1000x better cognition at ANY time in his life including now, better looking, and is 1000x better man than 🟠
FFS, Y'all are STILL out of fucking touch if Biden is living in your head rent free. Let's bring back an oldie but goodie and blame Obama while you're at it.
The new breed of journalists haven’t time to lament of past heroes—everything is time sensitive and the word needs to come out now. Bravery to follow leads, collect the facts, make it coherent and to have the public aware is daunting, but not impossible. Support those you trust. Truth matters 💯✊🏼
I honestly don't believe Biden had cognitive decline. Yes, definitely physical decline, he was losing mobility and the ability to speak normally, but if you take what he said and write it down, it's coherent, intelligent and well organized.
I’ve looked after a lot of patients with both cognitive and neurological decline. IMO Biden showed evidence of neuromuscular decline but never of cognitive decline.
Correct. His control over his stutter was affected. But not his mind. There were numerous examples of how quick he still is when he responded in the moment with quick wit and parting shots
You are 100% correct. Biden was AGING, Trump is clearly "middle stages" of DEMENTIA. Trump, if alive, won't be in any condition for 3rd term. He said he aced a cognitive test. Then was asked what questions were and he paused and said "ahh, I don't remember but its a well known test".. lie, Lie, LIE
Yeah, Fox spends a lot of time "putting a positive spin" on Trump. They actually defended Hegseths texting. After all the Hillary bashing for something so much safer than what he did, they had the audacity to say he did nothing wrong. Still waiting for Fox to blame Biden Admin for Pope's death.
Ask anyone spreading the cognitive decline nonsense to simply list the most common WebMD symptoms of Dementia and then point to one or two examples of Biden showing them.
I’ve never seen it done. Even once. It’s an entirely faith based assertion.
When you think about that disastrous debate and just days later there is this huge multi-national prisoner exchange. Maybe, just maybe he had more on his mind than dealing with an onslaught of lies.
But the Obama bros were ready to bury Biden and haven't shut up since.
So, I believe he had cognitive decline because he is old and that’s what happens when you are old. But he was also not in such decline that he caused damage to the country by say, staring a global trade war & constantly changing his mind about tariffs.
It’s not ageism, it’s reality. He’s 80 years old. His body and mind are in decline. That doesn’t mean that he isn’t capable and bright. My grandfather was capable and bright until he was 90 but he was in decline and was aware of it.
Honestly, he was tired. I’m younger than he is and I couldn’t have maintained his schedule or done one of the most stressful jobs any of us can imagine.
I hit post too soon. Biden surrounded himself with the best and brightest, who could take some of the load off his shoulders, but even with that, the job wore him down. But I’d take a worn Biden over a clueless Trump any day.
I agree! I’ll say it again- he did so much good for our country and world alliance. Not perfect but steady in action and a heart of gold for our country
His doctor was upfront about the physical decline as well. He has peripheral neuropathy. It makes it difficult to walk since the nerves at the bottom of your feet are affected. He should have been using a cane. Can you imagine the outcry over that?
This was bullshit! Getting a dig when they ignored Trumps first stolen term, didn’t inform people of his criminality, minimized Trumps mocking, bullying, amoral character and they want to compare Biden decline! Who btw looked damn good in Rome! Excuse for failure! Minimizing blood on their hands!
HAHAHA, IF JOE BIDEN WAS IN "decline" THEN HE'S SOME HELLA GOOD POTUS, BECAUSE HE KICKED ASS FOR 4 YEARS. Apparently in decline he's 100xs better than the lunatic we have now.
When did they ever not talk about it? They literally never shut up about it. Their fucking need to make up BS about Biden is what got us in to this mess. Fuck him and most of the press on everything. They helped put shit for brains in office twice. He can kick rocks!
Yep. I don’t watch most of them anymore. Only a few at MSNBC as far as MSM goes (Rachel, Chris, Lawrence and a few others) still gets my attention, but that is it. mostly listen to MT and follow along on Bluesky.
You listed my lineup, I like Ari too. I am managing to stay current here on Bluesky. I find Independent Media Outlets are full of good stuff. I do fine without MSM.
Same for me. I do like Ari and also Ali. I know I left a few from MSNBC off, but I don’t listen to most of them faithfully. My very favorite is Rachel.
Funny how similar we are in our habits. Yes love Rachel. Check this woman out, I follow her on Substack, @thesillyserious.bsky.social very different take on stuff, which I really enjoy.
If the media are now feeling qualified to report on observations of cognitive decline, they should similarly open the floodgates to report on observations of psychopathy/sociopathy/malignant narcissistic personality disorder.
He’s really so dense to stand there and say that w/o any sense of what’s happening in front of his own eyes everyday? He is awarded The Most Clueless Reporter Ever (he is a reporter not a journalist. He reports what the WH tells him to without critical thought, analysis, investigation or integrity)
They’re talking about Biden? What a joke. Take a look at the orange lunatic who, by the way, embarrassed the nation this weekend by falling asleep at the pope’s funeral in an inappropriate bright blue suit.
I’d take President Biden and his So-Called “decline” a gazillion times over the traitors & thieves regime.
I guess clinging to that old trope was the best admission Alex could muster for his sins.
Except they shit all over Biden constantly, are currently giving trump a free pass on this, and will no doubt play the victim and say this same thing once everyone knows how they failed at their one job again
The vilification of Biden goes very deep into the plan to destroy your U.S. The glorification of Bstrd Trump sold well to so many of your American people. I hear from them frequently, "I voted for Trump because I wanted change." I hope the fools are enjoying the change!
It's amazing the amount of dribble nonsense answers that is allowed to pass with Trump. He spews non-answers and incoherent bull all the time and crickets. He falls asleep at events. He clearly has undisclosed health issues. None of these issues would have been passed over by the press w/ Biden.
Keep in mind that any action against a sitting president is extremely serious. Joe Biden was handed a truck load if lemons after the 1st trump admin and he made lemonade. He was an intelligent even-handed leader, a true patriot deserving our respect. This coverup you talk about was out of respect.
And yet no coverage regarding the mental decline of tRump, which to be truthful, is easier to recognize in because he has far less faculties to decline from.
They seem to be missing the fact that you now have a convicted rapist sitting in the White House who can barely string three words together and is setting your country on course for a depression. But, hey, nice dickie bow tie.
It looked like Biden was doing fine at the Pope’s funeral. Certainly much better than Trump. Maybe the press should focus on the power they have and ask themselves why they used it to force a highly successful president to end his campaign instead of focusing on the danger of his opponent.
Sinclair Broadcasting, who owns most of the news stations and many radio stations and who are Trump lovers. They are scared of losing their jobs. so didn't do their jobs.
100%. Numerous reports out there that they didn’t mime Biden because he was boring and didn’t speak to them. They wanted Trump because he’s exciting, gives them something new to talk about everyday and sells subscriptions
Both "Biden would've had a tough time in the White House for four more years" and "Biden is infinitely better shape than Trump, and with a team that was infinitely better too" are true statements.
But the media have one standard for Dems and another for Republicans.
They also knew that the team behind Biden could do the f'ing job. It WAS DOING it. They also knew the team Trump would assemble would be sycophantic criminals lacking experience and moral fiber because no one else will work for him. They grossly overstated the the "danger" of Biden being old.
I always will believe that Biden was slipped something at the debate. At the after debate gathering(televised), he seemed alert and speaking coherently, unlike the debate performance. He’s a hell if a lot better than Cheeto Boy!
He was doing back to back pressers that day he’s old but what the media did can’t ever be forgiven. I want to wipe the slate clean and give the small journalists not afraid to write real news and states facts instead of whatever the billionaires want a chance cause who we have no FAILED us.
He was simply exhausted from multiple strenuous events in a short time. Plus Trump's Gish Gallop throws everyine off their game. It's why Trump does it.
Biden stumbled over words but actually had coherent thoughts. Trump stumbles over words and doesn't have coherent thoughts. Yet Biden's age was a front page story for 4 years.
He had a medical event during a debate. He lost the confidence of just about everyone in the party who had been, up until then, defending him at every opportunity (myself included). I don't know why people gloss over this.
I think they glossed over it because the campaign also glossed over it,, because “he had a debilitating medical event when the stakes were high” isn’t like a super confidence-building message either.
That’s our entire country. To many people want entertainment instead of governance. they love the politicians who are always in the news for good or bad. but the ones who are out in front of the cameras daily aren’t able to also get done what needs to get done. It’s annoying as fuck.
Yes. Because Biden surrounded himself and filled his administration with serious, competent people who cared about the good of America and the world. Not corrupt, incompetent toadies and lickspittles that Trump's surrounded by.
“ well the good old days.. may not return ..
And the rocks might melt …and the sea may burn..
I’m learning to fly … (say it)
But ain’t got wings..
coming down..
Is the hardest thing
Well some say life .. Will beat you down.. steal your heart .. steal your crown..”
You could have had Weekend at Bernie’s Biden and it would have been better than what we have now. Don’t give me this we missed it big time on Biden. That’s armchair quarterback crap.
Funny that setting President left us with an economy that was the envy of the world… He was helping the country and the people rise … and look were we are today just few months later ! These people are a joke !
Does he feel better now? Can he sleep at night? Because I sure can’t. I blame the media as much as the cult for the hell we are in. It will be 100 days this week and it feels like 100 years.
The sitting President wasn't aware enough to avoid wearing a blue suit to the Pope's funeral and fell asleep for most of it - what the fuck are we doing here?
URGH this bullshit made me so angry that I needed to block somebody...
apparently Alex Thompson isn't on bluesky so I blocked Axios🤬
Thank all of you who noted that the success of an administration is highly dependent upon the people a POTUS chooses to surround themselves with as is so evident now!😌
Had the Democratic Party been honest about Biden’s age/health early enough then a candidate to run would have emerged sooner and the US might not be in such a mess. It has to take some of the blame - it knew who they would be up against for a long time - and must start preparing for 2028 now.
The problem this country faces is bigoted, naive, religious hypocrites misled by a self-serving 'billionaire.' Now, we all pay the price with our freedoms.
I’m sure that might well be true. I wouldn’t trust the Executive to be honest about Trump’s health. However, the fact remains that had the aging Biden accepted that he was a one term President because of his advancing years then the Party could have been better prepared in 2024 I think.
Genuine questions. From the UK side of the pond, I thought his original intent WAS only to be a 1 term President.
When did that change?
Why weren’t D’s teeing up a replacement from the beginning?
Was it because Trump was standing again? (Who else could beat Trump?)
If the country wasn’t full of racist, misogynist assholes, the US might not be in such a mess. Twice this country chose the unqualified buffoon overqualified women. There is a very large portion of this country that will never vote for a woman, let alone a black one.
And they haven't said one word about Trump's obvious mental decline. Restoring Columbus Day is just one of a million examples.
But the press, crickets.
He served the USA with dignity and self-sacrifice. He did not attempt to steal your eyes and come back for the holes, like Sir Lard Glutton! Smarten up, you have more brains that this. How bloody rotten are you! Judge by the results of Biden.
Well, Alex, if it was so bad, maybe you should be speaking up about Trumps obvious mental issues. Oh, right, you are not real journalists, just opportunists trying to make a quick buck.
Alex, you the media know you’ve fucked America with your biased, cowardly coverage of trump and now you’re desperately trying to justify it while still making all the old mistakes and a lot of new ones, that is why most people trust you less and wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire.
Meanwhile, this same press totally ignores the batshit crazy authoritarian man in the Oval Office who is single handily destroying the American brand and the global economy.
America’s word is deemed worthless and our former allies can’t trust us.
while they tried to create a Biden dilemma they were thoroughly disappointed when he stepped aside and instead of fully focusing on the lies, threats & retribution offered by trump decided to label Harris a Biden enabler, a clone and therefore much more dangerous
Let’s start naming all of them in cognitive decline
The only way they are removed is if they are bumped off and then it way to obvious
Even a weekend at Bernie’s move can’t pull
It off
While he and the rest, presently ignore the obvious mental decline of the sitting President and before he even became President. That's why the public has lost faith, full stop.
First, please show me the bevy of psychiatrists and cognitive developmentalist that have weighed in on Biden’s cognitive health like they have on Trumps.
As viewers of Michael Popok’s “Legal AF” podcasts, we KNOW he’s “very⚖️judicial” & NOT given to hyperbole.
With that in mind, Mr. Popok’s suggestion the US🇺🇸military must keep its “oath🫡to the Constitution” IN⚖️🆘CRISIS🚨as Trump stays IN-CONTEMPT of multiple courts on MASS DEPORTATIONS‼️
#KeepOaths🏛️⚖️🫡🇺🇸🗽
No kidding, demented Trump is the story right in front of them, yet they continue to ignore it. Biden is now old news. And I don't care if he was slipping due to old age, since he isn't president.
That guy is so full of it! All the media did was dump on Biden and never went after Trump. And in the final analysis Biden brought this country out of the worst disaster we’ve seen since the Influenza pandemic, brought our economy back, provided building projects to our infrastructure. Trump, mess
We don’t trust them at all. It has nothing to do with President Biden! They want trust, I’d advise them to start being real journalist & start reporting the truth and fact checking this bullshit that is going on now! I refuse to watch any news!
Biden didn't have any failures in his presidencial duties due his "decline" and there was no cover up. We all saw the decline of age together. No deceptive shit went on. No reason to bring up any ageing decline when the man was doing a great job.
And we (the USA) was doing excellently, especially, compared to now, that the mention of Joe Biden's "decline" is irrelevent to anything and everything Trump has unleashed since Jan.
So true — and Trump knows it. That’s why Biden lives rent-free in his head. He thinks that putting Biden down makes him look strong, but it only makes him look weak and pathetic
Did Alex Thompson/Axios report on Trump falling asleep at the Pope’s funeral? You know who didn’t fall asleep at the Pope’s funeral, Joe Biden. Did he or Axios report that Trump did not know about the four US soldiers killed in Lithuania? Which one signed more legislation that helped avg. Americans?
What BS! Are these people really that deluded? Joe Biden was a great president, he did the job. Joe Biden's age was never an issue since Kamala Harris was ready to step in as she did for 2024 race. Do they really not see their double standard? Their bias? Sure Joe was old, every one knew that 1/
Joe Biden walked very stiffly due to advanced age. Joe mixed up some words. Joe's voice failed him. How does any of those things prevent him from doing the job? They don't. I get not wanting an old person to be president and I was all for Kamala. But how can a journalist possibly get 2/
bent out of shape over forgetting a word or two and then giving a pass to complete delusion "eating the cats and dogs". Everything that Joe did and said made sense, and really was not different than other democrats. Trump says and does things that are completely delusional. I will never understand3/
how the media cannot see that they treated Joe unfairly while giving Trump a pass. Sure they are critical of Trump, but not in proportion to his dementia and delusion and mental illnesses.
Last I checked, Joe stayed awake for the entirety of the Pope’s funeral yesterday. Where’s the non-stop reporting and worry for the imbecile who didn’t?
Biden took a huge mess and turned it around to our benefit. He rarely took time off. The press hounded him after a bad performance when he was working nonstop and campaigning… a 40-year-old could get loopy keeping that schedule.
Joe was slow bc he was old and had his lifelong stutter.
But if you listened to him, it was clear that he was grounded in reality and understood how the world works in ways that trump likely never has but definitely doesn't now that his brain is mush. MSM has never, ever been truthful about it.
Met him recently and we talked for 5 minutes and he was 100% with it. Trump is terrible and it has nothing to do with Biden or his admin. This admin wants to enslave children and deport citizens- THAT’s the fucking story .
Opinion | I could not support Joe Biden because of my fears over his cognitive decline Here is why I support President Trump’s policy to annex Greenland Panama Gaza turn Canada into America’s 51st state and declare a trade war against every country in the world
Counterpoint to Axios:
The media didn’t give enough coverage to the great things Biden’s administration accomplished, and by doing so they allowed right-wing media to create a false narrative that he accomplished nothing.
It’s ridiculous when people ask about “Biden’s plan.” He executed much of it, as you list, right before their very eyes- I don’t think they’ll see it now. SMH 🤦🏽
This cover-up makes me angry. There should have been a full primary and VP Harris may very well have won. The Rs would never have been able to accuse her of a coup and she could have rightfully presented herself as a "change" candidate. The truth is always the answer, even when it isn't what we want
this dude is full of bullshit. President Biden is fitter and sharper than Trump any day, and the press kept making excuses for Trump going off talking crazy. Looking drugged. falling asleep all the time. Biden may have started moving slower due to his age and being president is
I trust them less because they cower to Trump. They tiptoe around the obvious.
I refuse to watch the news anymore except for the weather.
They're a bunch of cowards.
The press failed to report objectively. Values, including the principles of truthfulness, accuracy & fact-based communications, independence, impartiality, fairness, respect for others.
They should lose their license. The viewers were impacted by their wrongful opinion of Biden. Here we are, chaos!
"I want everyone here to know," said the broadcast guy who lacked any self awareness "That I have the least self awareness of anyone here, even though most of you are exactly as unaware of yourself as I am, and I will NOT be changing, even if it kills me, which it well may."
We literally have a cocaine addict in the white house who is in his final stages of his life. That won’t go on the news
while we have his son on camera doing gumshots and baggies were found in the house after they left in 2020.
What astonishes me is their complete lack of awareness around Trump. Their weakness is 90% of the reason a complete choade sits in the Oval Office now. FFS, look at the giant orange problem right in front of your faces!!
Biden gave an extemporaneous master class on geopolitics. And now we're saying he was as mentally infirm as Trump? FFS. Biden is out of office and #MSM is still finding reasons to mercilessly flagellate him. Makes me sick.
Don’t care if it’s true or not. Biden hired qualified people to help run the country. Dementia Donny put in Musk, chief chaos creator, among other unqualified people into key positions. And that’s why we’re in the mess we are today.
Reagan was the same way, Nancy stepped up. He got a pass too.
When a smart man like Biden surrounds himself with other equally smart people, then the system keeps working, even if Biden had some senior moments. Here's a little chart to prove my point
Even if there was a cover-up relatng to Biden I can't see it being malicious. Unlike Trump who is so blatantly dangerous and evil in his revenge Joe and his people still were working to keep the government functional.
But why? That's the question. The insanity makes the media more money, at least the News Divisions which they now require to stand, profit wise, on their own. trump's 'reality tv' bullshit draws the hate and the love but draws it to the media. President Biden just ran the Nation. Boring.
Comments
I'll forgive him if he puts that same enthusiasm in his coverage of Trumps actual decline, maybe his next book, and how no one, not even the f'in press mentions it.
What sort of coverup is that? FFS
But I see you’re focused on personal attacks… so I’ll conclude you aren’t arguing in good faith.
Our current situation isn't about oligarchy or the media. It's about voters relying on the oligarchs and the media to do their thinking for them.
No one is impressed with you either.
And that’s, hilariously, a stronger string of logic to follow than whatever it is you’re doing here.
They'd never do the same to Trump.
FYI, Latino voters who watched the debate with Spanish translation said Biden won it hands-down.
Too many dopes in the tent.
Okay, outside the tent.
They didn’t vote in 2024.
And the future ride won’t be fun.
Trump children vote. Unfortunately.
“Justice Democrats” don’t. Unless it’s THEIR candidate.
They sit around and bitch.
Now this felon insane lunatic our country is destroyed. And this ahole is still complaining about Biden. Fk that
It's NEVER too ;ate to start telling the truth.
Current situation is a perfect example of how media needs to stop cowering and start reporting, everything.
If politicians are afraid of the truth they need to adjust how they live their lives.
Will be a solid debate.
You just have to read carefully.
"out of power"
And where do “journalists”- I use that term loosely- get their neurological and geriatric medical degrees?
What he said was egregious, not rooted in objective facts and to plug his book. I hope he gives you some couch change from his sales.
We can’t say that now at all. 47
Will have no accomplishments except to destroy our constitution and country: I can’t believe you all are talking about Biden right now. You all are as bad as msm
Your interpretation missed the obvious sarcasm.
They said “speaking truth to someone out of Power” which is a joke on the phrase “speaking truth to Power”
The post is pointing out how silly it is for them to act like they are “speaking out” when it’s against a dude who has no power at all.
And if you jackhammer the foundation, don’t act surprised when the house caves in.
It’s time all Democrat governors, Congressional Representatives and Senators unite and tell Trump ICE isn’t allowed to operate in their state unless everyone has due process. Local law enforcement must stand against illegal arrests & deportations.
It's disgusting.
Reagan, W, Trump... nah.
Cops shooting people every day
Citizens being exiled
Judges being arrested
or
Chump wore a blue suit
fuck off with this
Equal coverage
His bodily control diminished, not his mind.
But, yeah, Faux News basically spreads propaganda and that's their only function.
I’ve never seen it done. Even once. It’s an entirely faith based assertion.
Biden lost the plot at the debate - and was aware of it - in the face of Trump’s firehose of nonsensical rubbish & lies.
Biden isn’t the one with Dementia.
But the Obama bros were ready to bury Biden and haven't shut up since.
If you listen to his words it was a firehose of rubbish/lies - the whole performance is classic dementia.
Whereas Biden was aware that he’d lost his train of thought - disproving dementia.
Apparently, the covid vaccination helps clear up long-covid.
I mean, the target is RIGHT THERE.
I guess clinging to that old trope was the best admission Alex could muster for his sins.
But the media have one standard for Dems and another for Republicans.
The press was silent about it.
And the rocks might melt …and the sea may burn..
I’m learning to fly … (say it)
But ain’t got wings..
coming down..
Is the hardest thing
Well some say life .. Will beat you down.. steal your heart .. steal your crown..”
Same place, same time:
apparently Alex Thompson isn't on bluesky so I blocked Axios🤬
Thank all of you who noted that the success of an administration is highly dependent upon the people a POTUS chooses to surround themselves with as is so evident now!😌
He is an old man; old men lose the plot occasionally, but he was self-aware when he did.
In that debate Trump talked fluent rubbish with no self-awareness (an actual dementia symptom) & nobody paid any attention.
Trump’s health IS being hidden.
When did that change?
Why weren’t D’s teeing up a replacement from the beginning?
Was it because Trump was standing again? (Who else could beat Trump?)
But the press, crickets.
Dems need to get in front of this
Please pass it on..
Meanwhile, Trump looks and sounds like death warmed over. Report on that.
America’s word is deemed worthless and our former allies can’t trust us.
The only way they are removed is if they are bumped off and then it way to obvious
Even a weekend at Bernie’s move can’t pull
It off
During this fucking administration??????????
There is no second until you do
Not holding my breath
👇🏼
With that in mind, Mr. Popok’s suggestion the US🇺🇸military must keep its “oath🫡to the Constitution” IN⚖️🆘CRISIS🚨as Trump stays IN-CONTEMPT of multiple courts on MASS DEPORTATIONS‼️
#KeepOaths🏛️⚖️🫡🇺🇸🗽
Yet barely a word about the insane rantings of Mr "They're eating the dogs" or anything else he's said & done for the last 10 yrs.
The press wanted him back in and I'll hate them forever for it
Fuck him.
And Fox will say, are you going to believe us or you’re lying eyes?
What policy did Carter have that was outrageous?
To the extent that it eclipsed some of Trump's worst campaign missteps.
But if you listened to him, it was clear that he was grounded in reality and understood how the world works in ways that trump likely never has but definitely doesn't now that his brain is mush. MSM has never, ever been truthful about it.

Seriously?
Come the fuck on. He spews nothing but word salad and NOBODY ever calls attention to it.
Can't
Even

The media didn’t give enough coverage to the great things Biden’s administration accomplished, and by doing so they allowed right-wing media to create a false narrative that he accomplished nothing.
What was Bidens plan? We heard nonstop about project 2025. Where was Biden’s equivalent? Where was the Green New Deal? Where was Biden’s vision?
Cancelled student loans for many but was stymied by the supreme court.
Sinema and manchin torpedoed increasing fed min wage.
The CHIPS Act
Those were the start to build off of.
Now it's all being scuttled.
I refuse to watch the news anymore except for the weather.
They're a bunch of cowards.
They should lose their license. The viewers were impacted by their wrongful opinion of Biden. Here we are, chaos!
There would be evidence, and Trump is in a position to publish that.
Unless it was all bullshit. Which it was.
while we have his son on camera doing gumshots and baggies were found in the house after they left in 2020.
….after Germany gave him an award for how he handled Ukraine and he’s besties with Macron….
….but it’s okay to watch Trump snore in court and at the Pope’s funeral. And see how Macron manages Trump.
The gaslighting is overwhelming.
The press isn't free.
See Tapper's abrupt reframing of his commentary when he got a new boss.
He got the memo.
He is a poor journalist.
(I absolutely hate being full horseshoe-theory on this, btw.)
WTF!
When a smart man like Biden surrounds himself with other equally smart people, then the system keeps working, even if Biden had some senior moments. Here's a little chart to prove my point
Only care about Dem POTUS
Fatass FUCKFACE gets a pass on everything
So they can all go fuck themselves
