Joe Biden is suffering from dementia and most of the liberal world is urging him not to debate President Trump, lest he expose his diminished mental capacity. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi joined that chorus of no debates but Biden fought back saying he is looking forward to going toe-to-toe with the President. Correction: Biden’s people told him to pretend like he wants to debate Trump and he almost made it through the script without looking like a complete ass. Almost.
First up is Nancy Pelosi showing how truly scared democrats are:

“I, myself, just don’t tell anyone I told you this especially don’t tell Joe Biden, I don’t think there should be any debates. I do not think that the President of the United States has comported himself in a way that anybody eh uh I that has any association with truth, evidence, data, and facts. I wouldn’t legitimize a conversation with him,” said Pelosi.
Isn’t the point of a debate to prove your point of view is correct and your opponent’s is wrong?
In any case, Joe Biden went on MSNBC with Andrea Mitchell and gave almost a word-for-word interview that he gave previously to Anderson Cooper on CNN. No seriously, almost all of the questions were the same and Joe’s answers were identical proving that he only does interviews with pre-approved questions and reads the answers off of a teleprompter.
Mitchell did have one slightly different question because Pelosi’s debate advice hadn’t yet occurred when Biden did the Cooper interview.
After playing the Pelosi clip, Mitchell asked, “What do you think about that? Would you consider not debating the President?”
“No, I’m going to, as long as the commission continues down the straight and narrow as they have I’m going to debate him,” said Biden.
Presumably he’s talking about the debate commission, but he certainly didn’t make that clear, which is something he’ll need to do in the actual debate. Speaking of which, from that point on, Joe proved he is in no shape to debate anyone.
“Now I know for certain that they’re gonna, I’m try, I’m gonna be a fact-checker on the floor,” said Biden.
I don’t doubt he’ll be on the floor just because I don’t believe he can stand under his own power for 2 hours, but it’s going to be impossible for him to fact-check anything if he can’t even complete one cohesive sentence in a pre-approved softball interview.
Speaking of which, this was his next attempt at a sentence:
“In fact in, but look, the one thing that’s gone on so far is the vast majority of notable exceptions in the news media have been fact-checking the things during the convention and it’s been one lie after another lying, lying, lying, lying, one after another and but the debates are going to take place, I been recommended to me by a number of very competent people who know their way around including leading Republicans that I shouldn’t debate Trump unless there’s a fact-checker on the ground, I mean in there on the ground saying ‘that’s true that’s not true’ but look I think everybody knows this man has a somewhat pathological tendency not to tell the truth,” said Biden.
Yeah, he’s totally going to destroy Trump in a debate with concise run-on stream-of-consciousness insane sentences like that. What in the literally f*ck did he just say and how does it relate to the simple question asked of him?
I wish Vegas was running on line on whether Joe Biden will debate or not. I’d put it all on him coming up with a lame coronavirus-related excuse to bow out. There’s no way this babbling idiot can stand on a stage and match wits with Donald J. Trump.
