The View panel's attempted patch-up job for this will be so abysmal

This is no one's fault but Biden and the Democratic Party.

 

THIS IS BAD

 

 

 

I'm sorry but any white men who are still undecided are just trumpies in hiding. They're just self aware enough to not want to be associated with that disaster but deep down they want to take every minority's rights

[Orsay]

They're finally talking seriously about Biden stepping down on CNN. We need to SERIOUSLY pressure Biden to step down and some of y'all need to stop constantly defending him (you look delusional and embarrassing). Biden is NOT FIT FOR ANOTHER 4-YEAR TERM, point blank. He can not and will not beat Trump in November. These idiots should have realized that a year ago, but it's still not too late

Assumption? I'm the only one dealing with the evidence in front of us right now

 

I'm by no means defending keeping Joe on the ticket BUT it'd be prudent to at least look before you leap; and hypothetical polling does help to inform that decision. How else are you going to assess that someone is a strong replacement?

His approval is a record low. To suggest that's the best we can do is delusional thinking. Hypothetical polling is always weak and isn't a sound metric because political skill and also having a name immediately shifts political attitudes and how people respond to candidates. Hypothetical candidates are not real so polling on how hypothetical candidates perform are not reliable. You need to be able to allow people to run to have an actual sense of how people feel.

 

Until then, it's hypothetical, not measurable.

I'm a Biden supporter but I'd be here for a Harris/Whitmer ticket 🎉

Another example of people looking at the superficial rather than what was actually said. Because whatever Trump said… was trash. Extreme all or nothing view with a ton of emotional bias

Welcome to American politics.

 

People vote on gut reaction and emotion. Things are surface-level with little follow-up.

 

Let's not act new here.

ATRL actually talking about the substance of a debate? Do you know where you are?

Nothing said in this debate was deep, thought-provoking, or intelligent. Everything was surface level. So, yes, the commentary will also be surface level.

I think Sunny will be more reasonable cause she's one of the ones more willing to criticize Biden.

[Orsay]

Them View ladies are all gonna be wearing black in mourning tomorrow. The one ray of hope I have is that tonight was such a mega-L for Biden that the establishment liberals have no choice but to accept and admit it

[Ms. Togekiss]

Somehow Biden swept the undecided Latino voters on Univision

That is an absolute lie. Biden rightfully called out Trump on his tax cuts for the rich and his plans to gut social security. also how he tried to remove the ACA twice. He said a lot more too.

[TrymeB]

Look I can admit the truth: Tonight was a disaster for Biden and the democrats but you know what would be a TOTAL DISASTER for the entire USA and the world? Trump being elected to a second term as POTUS.

She's on the CNN panel in Atlanta right now and she's not happy. I guess she's going to fly back to NYC late tonight. She's the hardest working woman in politics, I swear

Biden saying Trump's tax cuts were bad is not thought-provoking and no one will remember it. He's not wrong. But, you cannot honestly think it was a moment of deep, rigorous political rhetoric.

[bad guy]

It was bad for Biden. It was really bad. And yes, I was sharing the shady posts towards him

I hope biden gets assassinated for participating in a genocide

Time to start minting some Kamala Harris 2024 stickers.
