If I were the Donald I wouldn't participate in another debate, he doesn't need too. Trump has nothing to gain by debating Biden again. His campaign should simply say "The Democratic candidate isn't mentally fit to debate and the media will try to deflect from it by accusing the Republican candidate of lying about everything". Drop the 🎤. TRUMP 2024!!!!
Thank you @Michael Smerconish, honestly I was really emotional on Thursday when I watch the debate, biden got a great record, the people pushing him to run again, are wrong, biden should retire he is a good man honestly, but this is elder abuse its really sad
He's a good man!! Showers w. His daughter plagiarized how many times. Kkk BUDDY from his FIRST DAYS IN D.C!...USES his son to be bag man-FACT!! DO YOUR OWN research! Dont just believe lying media hacks. The truth is out there!!.
Spot on. It was painful to watch. There’s no question that Biden needs to step aside. He is not fit to finish this current term, let alone the next 4.5 years.
Baloney! America does not want him to step aside and I am very disappointed by the media all piling on to Biden! There is no alternative or we get Trump! Trump has been befuddled many times..
@@donmiller8228 The latest poll has 72% of people believe that Biden is too old and senile to lead the nation. He can barely finish this term. Giving him 4 more years????
@@adamcarter6862 Quite the opposite. The Dems have a deep bench. The problem is that the party elite treat political offices as if they are entitlements for officeholders.
It's clear now why they shut out RFK Jr. I watched his responses to the debate questions and he articulated his vision for our future without vitriol and name calling. He ran circles around the two party choices.
it's not even a contest RFK is far and away the better candidate and will change the course of our nation and our people for the better and away from this path of destruction we currently are heading down #Kennedy24 🇺🇸
Much to the chagrin of MSNBC and CNN Rep. Jared Golden (Maine), a moderate Democrat, published an op-ed Tuesday arguing former President Trump is going to win the election and he’s “OK with that.” 😅
⛔️In these conversations no one is talking about the voters who nominated him. Is the party of democracy going to give them the the middle finger and throw out their candidate?⛔️
@@mananimal3644 the primary was rigged and now there is questions of whether they should invoke the 25th amendment this is not a good situation for the current presidency let alone the next 4 years after the election I hate to say this but it's Trump or its RFK and that's the truth here
Well stated. If the Democrats stay with Biden they will return Trump to office. A Biden replacement may not win. But Biden certainly is toast at this point
So difficult to watch and rewatch. Michael, you are on page with your comments, regarding Joe Biden stepping down and having the Democratic Convention choose a new candidate.
@@josephbee4325 Threat to what? Illegal Aliens being deported? Stopping these wars the powerful want? Changing immigration laws to bring in the educated versus the poor? In the four years he was President people still had a right to vote. So he wasn't able to make himself king. I'm not scared. He is just a populist and will do his four years and go.
I love Joe Biden, I think he did a great job in his first term. I pray he steps aside. I also hope the democratic party has a convention that allows for multiple people to race against each other.
If this debate performance turns out to significantly affect the election results, then the whole sequence would be in complete contrast to instances of debate performances in numerous other election cycles, including some that you have mentioned, e.g., the first debate in the 2012 election. It's still the fact that in these instances, the candidate whom the pundits declared as having won the debate went on to lose in the general election. So why exactly is this different now?
Experts have said Biden is the sharpest he's ever been. Behind closed doors he's on top of the issues and in complete command of leadership. He's the democratically elected primary candidate. Let him debate RFK Jr and Trump in September and see where the cards fall in November.
We've seen the reality. He is old and can no longer think on his feet. (Reading a teleprompter with gusto isn't thinking.) The nation and the party deserve better. Fortunately, the Democrats have plenty of great backups who could beat Trump and run this country.
I am a Biden supporter but I have no problem with choice for democrats. But Biden support numbers are holding steady since the debate. His poor performance is not making people want Trump back, and Joe's speech the next day was excellent. He should refuse to do the second debate.
You are completely correct. The fact that Biden's mental capacity is the prominent talking point is alarming. For the good of the country he must step aside. Trump must be defeated.
this is now a 2 man race between Trump and RFK and its that simple I would suggest you get familiar with Kennedys policies which are very well articulated and frankly are going to benefit Americans far more than anything trump or biden are even thinking about #Kennedy24 🇺🇸
"Don't underestimate Joe's ability to fuck things up." -BHO

Correct he probably won’t.
Contested convention will end up being another 1968. Even taking place in the same city.

So painful to watch. Who is pushing him to run again, and why?
His wife, because Democrats have a very thin stable of contenders. Believe it or not he's the best Democrats have.
His wife because the deep state has a lot of dirt on his family and Biden has to pay his dues by being their puppet.
EGO

How about the next one be at FOX with an audience.
It's clear now why they shut out RFK Jr. I watched his responses to the debate questions and he articulated his vision for our future without vitriol and name calling. He ran circles around the two party choices.
RFK Jr. is an anti-vaxx nutjob who won't win a single state.

@@adamcarter6862 Well that's a thoughtful and informed opinion.
Thanks !

Latinos for trump
Some slaves loved their masters…
Excellent!! Michael Smerconish nails it!
Many of us have seen for along time because we not only watch CNN and MSnbc, Liberal TV. Biden and Kamala need to go..
Saying Biden just had a bad night is like saying when they found out the emperor had no clothes, he was just having a bad day.
Are you a business owner or employee?
Agree with all of this.
1000% correct!!! One of the best summaries and wake up calls. Step down, Joe! STEP DOWN! You're going to let trump win. Step the hell down!
He needs to step aside ASAP
5:11 no. Biden is the strongest candidate to beat Trump. He's so sharp (behind closed doors) when he's sleeping. 😂
Contested convention would be a huge cat fight on prime time and fun to watch!!!
Not amused.
@@qbee53 But hard to argue with.
I watched the highlights of the debate and I laughed and laughed and laughed.
Imagine the horror of watching it live. Good thing SNL is on break now, then again the laughs wrote themself!
This was an amazing commentary.
Joes time has past . Thank you for your Service Sir. V.P. Harris one and done !
Amy; Joe Biden's time never was. He was placed in as a puppet.

No, They're all too extreme to win.

What does the word ‘binary’ mean to you?
Keep on about a Contested Convention please Michael.
So difficult to watch and rewatch. Michael, you are on page with your comments, regarding Joe Biden stepping down and having the Democratic Convention choose a new candidate.
Why do these journalists hate Trump so much?
I don’t know, maybe they wanted to go communist like Joe did 😳
Because they aren't journalists they're paid propagandist for the democrat party.
Because Trump is and always has been a liar and a crook, but he makes for great television.
Because , they have really seen him Spoken to him, he's an existential threat.
@@josephbee4325 Threat to what? Illegal Aliens being deported? Stopping these wars the powerful want? Changing immigration laws to bring in the educated versus the poor?

You believed the lies.........shame on you.
@@lawrenceksyahoocom Nah let him cook.
@@SilverSergeant nope, dems made their bed. Let them sleep in it.
Smerconish makes negative comments on any remark Biden makes. Twisting us into your false narrative is not good for America.

Whitmer-Booker is the best chance to defeat Trump.
I could go along with that.
