    Biden's whole attempt to present himself as the modern reincarnation of FDR, with building up an "arsenal of democracy" for fucking Ukraine and the zionist entity, is laughable.

    Also it's been a minute since i listened to him speak for more than ten seconds, has he gotten worse?

      He's clearly gotten worse, just imagine him in a debate with trump-moist next year.

            Nope, but there's a non-profit, the Commission on Presidential Debates that gets funding when they happen. The debates are like the two parties having a smooch with various media agencies. It's all theater to shuffle money around, there's nothing in the constitution that says debates need to happen.

            There's also nothing in the constitution that says people directly vote for president. Senate is allowed to choose someone random if no one gets 50% of the electoral votes.

            Back in the day the League of Women Voters put on the debates and if you wanted any credibility you had to show up. Then the parties were like "Wait, why are we letting an independent group write the questions? This isn't af ucking democracy!" and took control of the debates. Now it seems like htey're just doing away with the pretense all together.

      His team went for the FDR comparisons, Biden kept fucking it up by mentioning how much he was trying to be Reagan

      I've never truly understood the phrase "stumbling over your words" until I heard Biden speak
