It's been a week since the debate. If Biden was really as fine as everyone claims, it should have been a simple thing for him to make a public appearance and show everyone that he's fine. Instead, it's been a week of private meetings and "bro, we swear, bro, he's fine, it was just one bad debate, bro, c'mon". Afaik, the only public speaking he's done since was a radio show where he went on and said he was proud to have been the first black woman to serve in the white house or something.
So, for my part, my singular concern is this: is Biden up to the task of being on the campaign trail to stop Trump from winning? So far, it's looking like no. It's looking like we're going to get a bunch of surrogate speakers and excuses why Biden couldn't be here or there. I just don't want Trump to win, and I don't think that running a campaign with a guy who's seemingly too frail to be a Wal-Mart greeter is going to be the secret sauce.
He had a speech in NC that was very convincing since the debate, go watch it.
Was that the "when you get knocked down" speech? I'll check it out.
Dude was obviously sick, but yeah I'm sure you'd go on a speaking tour feeling under the weather at 82... 🙄
I can buy that he was sick, but I wish the democrats had done something to temper expectations besides load Biden full of robotussin and let fate take him.
