"Stain of Biden Coverup"

[perplexed]

Ignore double post

LOL no he didn't...he was pushed out because the Dems saw he was not going to win...and they thought Harris had a better chance and they were very wrong as we saw...

I truly think that some people just tell themselves lies as a defense mechanism. If they lie to themselves long enough, they will eventually forget the truth and the lie will become their truth. Some would call that the denial stage of grief. Do you think that the liberal media was just trying to capitalize on grieving liberals by selling them copium?

With FDR definitely

Was it wrong for FDR (and his staff) to keep his physical ailments hidden from the public?

Yup, I covered that. Did you miss the part about where internal communications found during discovery showed that Fox News knew the information they were reporting as fact wasn't?


Ratings only show that Fox News is popular. And, again, popularity doesn't mean they are accurate, or trustworthy. Their ratings could be more attributed to the popularity of confirmation bias than much else, really.

I also wonder if a lot of people, particularly older ones, do what certain relatives of mine used to do...leave Fox News on as background noise, much like some did with the Weather Channel in past decades. Heck, I knew younger people, particularly in the 80s, who did the same thing with MTV. Who knows?

-- A2SG, if a lot of Nielsen families did this, that could explain the ratings too....let's not forget, tv ratings don't show actual viewership....

Yeah, that's what it is. People use Fox News as background noise.
That has to be it. Maybe they sleep to it too

And the media. In exchange for covering it up they got access to the president.
Do you really have to ask if it was wrong?

We agree that it was wrong. Why was it wronger than when Buchanan, Wilson and FDR did it?

I'd be wary of the dreams that could come from doing that.

-- A2SG, though, it might explain a thing or two....

I think the president should be exempt from HIPA laws in that the results of their medical records should be made public due to national security.

Look at the date. Listen to the press secretary and then tell me it wasn’t being covered up

When viewing the video it seems a lot of focus is on the word sharp. The press secretary did not say " always" sharp. She also circled the observation back to the press, they too are around the president. Additionally, age-related cognitive changes are normal. It is a natural part of getting older. He was never diagnosed with a cognitive disease. And lets remember, he did not run for a second term. So all this conspiracy is a way to deflect .

Cool idea. When do you think we'll see Trump's medical and cognitive test results?

-- A2SG, a peek at the actual tests being administered would also be interesting...

Well, I guess Jake Tapper and Van Jones are lying about how the admistration and other media networks were lying to them and the American people. Maria said so, so it must be true.

If telling yourself this will help you cope with your day, sure buddy. You are absolutely right about everything.

Off topic. If you want to talk about me and my psychological needs, start another thread

Copy. Kamala appeared smart and talented until she opened her mouth and went off the pre-approved script.

Her speaking was a liability imo. Never liked the way she exaggerates pauses and tries to pump every little phrase with excess meaning. Basically, she lacks charisma. I wish that wasnt such an issue, but it is.

Also not the bait and switch. Biden was accused of suffering from dementia, not of hiding a cancer diagnosis.

Certainly Brit Hume is playing that game.

Anyway, once the book comes out, we'll see what's there, and what 'Democratic politicians' are implicated in any meaningful way. I mean, press secretary KJP is not exactly a politician, and if the most she has to look forward to in her career is a spot on Dancing with the Stars, I don't think this has any significant effect on future elections.

As far as Biden's mental acuity goes, the general state became clear to the public at the debate, and ultimately he was not put forth as the candidate because of the public reaction.

The first five minutes were catastrophic for Biden. For people with short attention spans, that may be enough.

 

[Oompa Loompa]

Musk's 11th Hour $250 million campaign contribution had something to do with it, I'm sure.

Because Lord knows that Kamala's $277 million 11th hour campaign spending ($1.7 Bn) total couldn't buy enough people to ignore the obvious.

 

[Oompa Loompa]

Ok, yeah that was lame. Lame from Trump. And then she copied it??? Disappointing. But for me she wasnt about "big plans". It was about steady competent administration and blocking big plans I dont like.

I mixed up her pronouns. It wasn't intentional incase anyone accuses me of misgendering.

"Steady competency admistration" = keeping the Biden overlords and puppeteers in control by replacing the puppet's Biden mask with a Kamala one.

Jake Tapper Says ‘Conservative Media Was Right’ About Joe Biden​

The media needs to come clean about its coverage — or lack thereof — of former President Joe Biden’s declining health and mental acuity during the 2024 presidential election.​

​

“When we got to leading up to the debate, which you anchored, that June 27 debate, 2024, there was a ton of news leading into that debate and that month, and we looked back at your coverage and found that you ignored it,” Megyn Kelly said on “The Megyn Kelly Show.”​

 

[FAITH-IN-HIM]

Hume is engaging in wishful thinking.
I think that many people ignored Biden's slowly aging before their eyes because compared to his predecessor, he was an Einstein. The bar had been lowered to the ground. Biden did his homework. He hired superbly competent, experienced, and trustworthy staff members. He clearly understood the Constitution and what government was all about from having worked in Congress for many years. Having run the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and serving as vice president he had a clear grasp of Foreign Affairs. These abilities, even if they were gradually deteriorating, were so far superior to his predecessor, who knew absolutely nothing about the Constitution or government and never bothered to do the work required to learn it, that it was easy to ignore.

I do not question President Biden's qualifications. His first two years were reasonably good, but his age seemed to affect his performance in the final two years.

The problem with American politics today is the prevalence of whataboutism. Both sides justify their candidates by highlighting how the opposing candidate is worse. We've lowered the standards so much that someone with cognitive decline or 34 convictions can be seen as better than the other side. There was a time when a presidential candidate had to step down for plagiarizing a paragraph in a speech. That same person later became the President, and now some argue he is better than his opponent.
