Neither primary gave us a real choice. As a Democrat, I feel betrayed.
In Germany, after you get your drivers license (usually) at the age of 18, your licenae will never be questioned again and you'll keep it until the day you die. Unless you voluntarily decide to return it. Guess, how many do.
One effect of being - I don't know the correct english expression, let's call it "age impaired" -is that you don't know you're "age impaired". But that's of no fault of the old, they just don't know better. That's a thing, the caring people should have prepared for. And in the case of Joe Biden, they didn't.
Sadly, that's one major fallacy of power - they never prepare for a successor, because of a fear of others becoming a competitor. And that is why Trump will win. I wouldn't care if it was just about the US. But sadly, Europes leaders attached our fates to a country with which we have very little in common.
In Portugal after the age of 75, a doctors assessment is needed to renew the drivers license, and for truck drivers and public transportation drivers like bus drivers it's at the age of 60.
"Europes leaders attached our fates to a country with which we have very little in common."
Have you been drinking?
@@FactCheckerGuymore than 50% of Americans are non white now.
Okay Mr. William Hague. We will tell NATO that you want the American president to go. I mean he is surrounded by experts that he listens to. Experts the UK only wishes they have. But if you want America to walk away it will save us money. But I have an idea. maybe you should ask the King? The King has no power but he is old as well and you ask for him to approve.
Bingo
What do you mean "we"? He said the Democrats should persuade Biden. Not us.
@@Woodzta Yeah and I think POTUS should persuade the King that Brexit was a big mistake. How well would that go over?
@@Gnosticware William Hague is not flying over to the US to persuade the Democrats to remove Biden. It is his opinion that he is free to have. As absurd and inapplicable as your comparison is, many in the US already did, and still do make their opinions clear on Brexit, and often still either condemn or discuss it to this day. They are free to have that opinion, similarly with how Hague is free to believe that the Democrats suggest that Biden shouldn't run.
I don't know what you are ranting about. As a Democrat and a US citizen who had been planning to vote for Biden because I'm terrified of Trump, I am happy to hear an honest discussion about what should be done, because the US media has been pressured to spout the party line.
Well Mr Hague you lost elections for your party, a party which just got mullahed in the last election. So I wouldn't pay too much attention to you.
I agree, this is the same man who recommended Jeffrey Archer for London mayor.
Biden is not dementing he was just very dehydrated when he jumped on stage so, that explains drowsiness, confusion and mild cognitive impairment all due to: lower blood pressure, hypoxia and disruption of the Ion Channels. Just listen how hoarse was his voice when he started.
More accuracy, Susan. Hague never lost elections.
Hague only led the Tories after 1997 (Blair's win which ignited the ruin of our country) until 2001, when Duncan Smith became Tory leader. Please note.
@@Tridhos See my note. Speak of what ye know, not what ye hear
It doesn't detract from the fact that biden is unfit for power. I thunk trump would be a disaster for the world so biden needs replacing now.
Sorry I didn’t catch the lady’s name I think it was Claire she spoke absolute sense on this subject
As I see it, it is people like William Hague who are being "reckless!"
But Trump is some kind of mental giant.. get real 😅
“Pride comes before the fall”. Behind his curtain of performative empathy is an off the charts ego.
We’re all going to pay a big price for his arrogance.
He should be keeping his mouth shut and not try to influence another country's ejection. Irresponsible from someone who should know better.
I hope he stays on the race till the bitter end
No doubt the end will be very bitter if he refuses to quit. We’ll end up with Trump.
If Trump gets his second term, Biden can try again for his Second term in 2028
Not likely now, too many Dem big hitters have now spoken out so he clearly doesn't have unanimous support in the party anymore.
Didya think that maybe a defensive war against an unprovoked invader as opposed to war of conquest that you started are two completely different things that NATO shouldn't lump together with regard to membership issues. Perhaps a full membership with some temporary caveats.
Nobody listens to a tory anymore. They are finished
It's not just about his speaking abilty it is allso about his ability to make quick decisions about things like , terrorism , military issues etc. etc.
Ohh no, we cant afford to defend us....
BEND OVER...
Sounds like British MAGA lol
This year it's MAGA vs GAGA
After Obama MAGA meant:Make America white again M A Christian again. After Biden MAGA stands for: Make America German again. Even Melania has a German surname maiden.
It’s Joever. Release the delegates, resign and handover to Kamala.
Open primary Jason Crowe for nominee
Why is Hague on a Democrat side here?
Supposed to be a Tory.
A Conservative .
Why does anyone think a parachute will beat Trump. That's dumb
Lol ok
Must work for trump
Oh come on! You don't have to be a Trump supporter or a Tory to see he is not fit to run. It's just tribal at this point. Gavin Newsom or Michelle Obama (if she could persuaded) could probably beat Trump. Keeping Biden is just admitting defeat.
People saying it's a cold or a speech impediment are absolutely ridiculous. If that's what you think it is, watch the debate again.
It's been obvious for a while, imagine the state of him in 4 years
Murdoch talking
Yeah let trump take over 😅😅😅😅 and then we are all in the shi#
Could Hague sound more annoying?
France is not "falling apart". France just beat back Fascism! So what if they have to figure out their new Left-Center alliance ? The whole country goes on vacation in August anyway. They'll figure it out. Re: UK - a little more money now will prevent catastrophe just a little while later. Read history!

You are wrong
Meaningless drivel‼️
Lazy and ultimately useless comment given you've given no reason why it is "meaningless drivel" and why your presumably informed opinion is better.
This channel is what is reckless.
It needs to go.
🇺🇸
Biden is too old, America needs someone more active!
Trump is too old, and also corrupt and a fascist. Take your choice. This is a load of HS.
At least it's a level playing field. Would you like to vote for a) Old Fool 1, or b) Old Fool 2.
Gawd, it's a relief to be able to mock the US again now we've cleaned our own doorstep up a bit.
His gaunt is indicative of something not right, honestly folks regrettably his stubborn attributes are calling the shots. He definitely needs to stand down......
If Hague says go. BIDEN MUST STAY.
American voter here. Former Biden supporter. He can't successfully prosecute the campaign against Trump. He must bow out.
Definitely.
This will guarantee a Trump win
The fact that Biden being old and rather fragile matter little. Trump is even more senile and on top of that he is a criminal. So Biden will do for now.
Jesus wept...
Trump is not senile.
When the older woman British commentor claimed Biden did well in his debate with Biden I couldn't stop laughing.
It's less clear that he should step aside now than it was that he should never have run for re-election in the first place.
Probably better if Joe had chosen an honest profession 50 years when he graduated from a mediocre law school. He should have spent his life writing wills and fighting traffic tickets. Those are honest and useful tasks. Society would have been better off.
Sleepy joe gotta go
What a clown show, stick to your own home politics. No nothings fools.
Mind your own business, we'll talk about whatever we like.
Hague, what a B.S. 🙄🤦♂️
It’s not the both candidates need to submit (in an imperative sense) to a cognitive exam. Is that Biden needs to but is unwilling as to not hand his opponent a win while Trump doesn’t need to but is willing in order to hand his opponents a loss.
its a risk leaving him there he might press the NUKE thinking its the call the nurse button
This shows a complete lack of understanding of the US political ecosystem.
Or just a misunderstanding of politics in general, which would explain the last UK election
14 years in power is pretty good.
Presumably you are an expert?
@chrimbus71 They could have stayed in power forever if they didn't turn against Russia, boris johnson supported ukraine and boom 3 years of turmoil.
Or is it the brexit you wanna brag about or the economic fallout after. Mismanagement mismanagement mismanagement 14 years because russia ran a smear campaign against the other parties and the EU to the conservatives benefit.
Just unpopular leader after unpopular leader because of russian bot farms. Backing bad politics with bad money and well placed bribes
All ignored so they could stay in power.
They would watch the country burn to stay in power, they did, and they will again.
@catherinegrimes2308 the last 8 years are nothing to brag about
@chrimbus71 if you like brexit and economic decline, sure
Yup hes not going to be alive in another 4 years needs to retire with pride cos he has done a good job, he needs to remember that he'll be remembered
Have you lost your mind?
OH no 3% tipp, at the Restaurant will make us starve to death 👻💀🪦
It is really sad to watch someone who is clearly showing signs of dimentia being in that position. This situation is also terrible for the USA and it's image across the globe. It will also most definitely result in another Trump term if Joe runs. So you would think that the Dems would make sure he doesn't run.
Who is he to tell our President to step down? Or this radio hosts? Take care of your own backyard and let us take care of ours. You are in no place to tell us what to do or not.
Dems will take on a younger candidate who will be a whole new nightmare for Trump, cos *that* split-screen will show Trump up.
Then I guess your position applies to American political pudants. Biden himself said Putin had to go. Good grief. I do not agree with their position at all, but they have more than the right to express them.
Bidenists are slowly but surely starting to sound like the MAGA crowd. Disturbing.
Biden has been energetic and very active these past two weeks while Trump's been holed-up in Mar a Lago. He's old, but there are plenty of folks older who are energetic and sharp as a tack. He's done tremendous good for the US in his first term. If something happens and Harris becomes president, I believe she can well handle it with the able team Biden has assembled.
Can Biden run for President but at the same time announce on TV that when elected the democrats will appoint a new leader. After all one is not voting for the man it is what he stands for.
that was the expectation when he won
most folks thought he would resign the first year or maybe even die
After everything that's happened, he might not be believed.
British assessments on upping the annite in Ukraine is a delusional as it gets.
The Democrats made their bed and they are soon to be forced to sleep in it
Nothing wrong him a few weeks ago according to the Times.
🤣
A vote for Biden is a vote for TEAM Biden. If something happens to him we have Kamala who would be the first candidate to replace him anyway. So all we have to do is convince people they are voting for a very succesfull team. In contrast Trumps last team doesn t want to work with him any more because he was so disastrous.
Mind your own business.
Are the 67million people of the UK going to be affected by who is the US president over the next few years? -- yes, or no?
-- Your answer determines whether or not consideration of that issue --- what the possible outcomes are, with their relative likelihoods, desirability and implications etc --- is an aspect of the UK government's business.
Mind yours, what you doing watching a British channel?
It's time for Biden to retire. He's borderline senile and they can smell it in Moscow and Beijing.
Because he came to the debate dehydrated? All his cognitive impairment and hoarse voice is explained by dehydration.
@@ottobormann "Biden came to the debate dehydrated" Of what WH physician do you speak & quote? Biden's stage 3 senility "explained by dehydration" is very specific so please share your sources
As you bring it up therefore you must share your sources or withdraw your comments as propaganda disinformation. Pkease note
@@ottobormann Like it or not, he has been declining for several years. The Democratic Party establishment and the MSN have been covering it up for some time.
This is the most important job in the world and you need somebody who is competent doing it.
He should withdraw and he would be congratulated and treated with compassion. If he doesn't and Trump wins he will be treated with derision. It is up to him, Jill and Hunter.
Better listen first what incoherent word salad Trump every day tells. I wish we have such a competent president as Biden in my country.
@@maritaschweizer1117 Which country would that be?
The CIA will decided when he goes.
Sleepy joe needs 4 more years to cover up dodgy dealings🤔
No He Should Not!!!
I think it is unwise and undiplomatic for the UK to comment in another Countries politics especially the USA
You could have found more lucid guests to discuss such a salient issue.
Why dont you go first and stop commenting nonsense?
No he musn’t
All this about Biden, and not one whit about Trump's dramatically progressing dementia. You are showing your stripes.
Are you saying that Biden doesn't have any mental health problems?
You're missing the point. All these commentators want Trump to lose. But that means the Democrats need a candidate that can win, and after the debate, it looks like Biden can't win.
Trump does not have dementia.
