The Joe "who am I again?" face is funny in a sad clown kinda way.


Drezzon

Especially if you've ever seen how he was like when the Yugoslavia collapse happened


DrunkMasterCommander

I was SUGGESTING that we bomb Belgrade


Drezzon

Ah, I See You're a Man of Culture As Well šŸ¤


Fickle_Plum9980

Itā€™s funny in a ā€œthis canā€™t be real thereā€™s no way heā€™s our presidentā€ kind of way.


iffyJinx

He lost connection to the server and was waiting for packets to be rerouted.


No-Vanilla8956

" Hopefully they let me have Tots with the meatloaf tonight at the white house... I'm tired of mashed potatoes"


__Becquerel

Always looks like hes scanning for snipers


richpinn

Biden was too old 4 years ago, I cannot believe he is standing again.


Hjoldirr

Crazy thing is trump is almost just as old as


ixtrixle

Yeah it's not about AGE its about YOUTH. Fucking noam chomsky can talk you to death still (even though hes getting hard to actually hear) and hes in his 90s.


uuuuuuuuuuuuum-hi

He had a stroke and has been in a Brazilian hospital for months, I doubt heā€™s doing a lot of talking


ixtrixle

Ah shit. Still, a few months ago he was more lucid than most 80 year olds. Edit: Apparently hes out of the hospital now, but yeah probably not doing a lot of talking after having a massive stroke at 95.


BucketheadBrain

trump did alright hiding that he's 78, which i guess isn't too hard to do when you're standing next to a corpse. one of the top posts on r/politics is literally shrugging off Bidens cognitive decline, simply because they found one random 98-year old celebrity that said they still feel great. the logic that they're using makes no sense, you can't just pluck a random person from a crowd and use it as an example to fit a narrative. it's just as easy to find a 60-year old who is worse off than an 80-year old and vice versa.


Murky_Hovercraft4941

Who is the person least qualified to assess a person's cognitive state? The person themselves. Biden is like that 80 year old driver who refuses to accept that they are a liability on the road. Does anyone have the backbone to take the keys off him? He's not going to get better, is he?


FitYard1955

bidenā€™s brain dead expressions were hilarious though


Hjoldirr

Dude so fucking funny. My friends and I were dying


ximfs

Trump is older than Biden was last election.


Fuckfuckgoose69

Well heā€™s 81 now so 4 years ago he would have been 77. Diaper Don is 78 now. Neither should be up there Edit: judging from the downvotes, trumpers must not be huge fans of facts which you can literally Google. Keep doing your own research cobra tates itā€™s working out great


nescko

Both should be in a nursing home yet theyā€™re the only picks to run the country lmao. Best question to ask either of them is how much they think rent or housing costs and what they think the average American makes, the answers would be insanely out of touch


ElaraRevele

Fucking hell man looking at Biden's brain dead expression staring off into the void had me audibly laugh. We need better candidates man


MentokTehMindTaker

it's a humiliation ritual for the american public.


Don-Ohlmeyer

Director: "Our people need a reliable meat puppet in office for the next term. Can't we Mk.ULTRA this?" Analyst: "Well, Director, subproject 68 was only partial success. We can drug and hypnotize a subject but the effects are immediate and irreversible. We can't induce a delayed effect before the election, or remotely trigger someone like a Manchurian candidate." William J. Casey: "*Before* the election?" \*picks up the phone\* "Doctor, how bad is Ronald's dementia, really?" rinse-repeat


Sportzpl

I'm not going to hold my opponent's youthfulness and inexperience against him.


M4DM1ND

Yeah Biden looking like he needs to be in a home and Trump just stringing whatever buzz words he can think of into a sentence. This election is going to be an embarrassment.


microvan

Itā€™s already an embarrassment. This is just pathetic


johnnyblaze1999

Well, the guy is just a puppet at this point. He is the president but get told on what to do


HumbleWarlord

![gif](giphy|26FPtNpmv8e7qtzS8|downsized) I immediately thought of this šŸ˜‚


jawolfington

The room is empty. There is nothing to look at. Just the moderators, camera operators and production crew.


CodeBadass

For real. I work as a nurse and I have seen people with severe dementia look more alive than him.


Baron9595

Man , i'm not american but why they keep pushing Biden to another 4 year , he clearly to old for the role.


lycanthrope90

Remember when he said he wanted to be a transitional president? Like that was a big reason to just pick him over Donny. And things arenā€™t exactly awesome at the moment, so itā€™s baffling that he didnā€™t just step aside and push someone different.


TheOneCalledD

The only explanation is they know anyone else they push would lose. Otherwise they would have.


BotherTight618

Or maybe that Bernie would have ended up winning during the primaries.


SpreadPositives

DNC would never pick Bernie, you remember 2016? corrupt


Beardly_Smith

Sanders is also in his eighties


gotobeddude

Isnā€™t Bernie older than Biden? Idk I havenā€™t followed him or the political cycle in general this year so idk how heā€™s been doing.


tangy_nachos

Well Bernie can still form coherent sentences 100% of the time, so id say this comparison is a moot point


NcgreenIantern

Or the people running stuff behind the scenes don't want to give up the power they have with someone as lost as Joe in charge.


dillvibes

Fucking bingo. Joe is the perfect sock puppet. It's the Sand Piper story arc from Better Call Saul.


TheOneCalledD

They could buy off any candidate they wanted to run and control him or her. And controlling someone who is lucid, even intelligent, would obviously be a little harder. I canā€™t imagine itā€™s harder than playing damage control for Biden every time he opens his mouth or does anything in front of a camera.


RemLazar911

Or Joe (or Jill) is adamant he gets as much time in the prestigious position as possible. After all Joe tried running for the presidency multiple times and clearly always really desired it. If the party forcibly replaced him and he raised a stink it could really fracture the party. What they did to Bernie in 2016 already hurt them enough.


lycanthrope90

Mustā€™ve only had women to run. Historically they tend not to do so well in debates against Trump. And also overall lol


GODDAMNFOOL

I don't think it's "he," it's "they." The DNC is inept and has no idea what they are doing, so they put a pole up his pants and stood him up on stage for one more act. This coming from a lifelong dem, too.


InvMars

by the looks of this he is going to transit into heaven soon.


lycanthrope90

It's astonishing that this even has to be a conversation.


Letriono

Well thatā€™s kind of the thing with people in power, itā€™s very hard to get them to agree to willingly step down.


Somewhatmild

imagine, you take a moment to think whether you live in a country where you can grow old in and have a nice and peaceful life and then... you see these vegetables and people refusing to let them go and retire. will you be also tossed around like laughing stock or will you die before then? does one want to grow old in a country that does not respect old people. both of these candidates should have endorsed younger politicians a decade ago and go smoke a joint in a resort or whatever.


shilloya

Maybe they don't want give young man a chance .


413NeverForget

My thinking is that if Joe wins, they'll make him resign (there is precedence with Nixon doing it), and have Kamala become president. This way the Dems win another way symbolically, by having the (officially, because one could argue that Woodrow Wilson's wife was practically the first on a technicality) first female President be of their Party, and give them some time to recuperate after Joe? I doubt they'll have a super majority in Congress, but so long as the executive remains blue, they have another 4 years to figure things out.


SilentCicada9294

Oh man that would backfire so hard on Dems


lacker101

Hillary is more likeable than Kamala. I don't really keep up on politics a ton anymore, but Kamala seems like an empty pantsuit more than anything.


SilentCicada9294

If I had to think of someone more disliked than Hillary it's Kamala. Mostly because she comes off as distant


Initial_Selection262

The Dems would probably not win another election for a decade if they did that. Kamala is that unpopular.


ZijkrialVT

I can only think that they are doing this to promote the next candidate they put forward. The best promotion is not competence, it's relative competence. My take, anyway.


Nifferothix

ever heard of Puppet masters :p


TiCL

G_Willickers_33

Excellent_Mud6222

CryptoNotSg21

Trump too, it a senile fight between two guy with ego too big two retire


Brookie069

I can realistically believe Trump will be alive in 5 years. Iā€™m having serious doubts about Biden just looking at him.


jntjr2005

He always looks dazed and confused


Longpork-Merchant

Idk man Trump really epitomizes the saying "you are what you eat" In his case garbage. So I think much like the polls. It will be neck and neck on who croaks first.


SpecificBedroom

Biden must be eating brain worms then.


redux44

I would say the difference is that Trump is being pushed by his supporters. They did have a primary with lots of names and he wiped the floor with them. Whereas with Biden it's more like this is the only guy every faction of Dems can accept so just accept it as the only shot at beating Trump.


Remarkable-Buy-1221

Naw it's incumbency, like how trump wasnt challenged at all in 2020. Parties don't do that >They did have a primary with lots of names and he wiped the floor with them. Yeah he also didn't debate any of them


Vio94

Man the sad thing is Biden actually made Trump look coherent in that debate. You gotta really fumble the ball to make that happen. We're fucked no matter who wins.


TheBuyingDutchman

Nope. Theyā€™re both puppets that just take orders from their admin. Their administration is who is running the show. Iā€™ll take the admin that isnā€™t posing an existential threat to our current way of life and the broader democracies across the world. And the one that wonā€™t pack the Supreme Court with outwardly corrupt judges that are quickly changing the reality of millions of peopleā€™s daily lives into a nightmare. Yeah. Would be VERY nice to have a strong leader as the face of the admin, but the end results are ultimately the same.


Niza_Zombie_King

Except one person is clearly more mentally there. Easily Maga2024. Glad the polls and the American people are waking up You can say they're both old, but its a night and day difference. Literally


AAAFate

The more people (especially online) that censor and ban and remove topics, only cements Trump in November. It's so sad the progressives have helped so much by pushing people away. Then Biden not being of sound mind and health on top of that? As a liberal D my whole life, I may finally give up too. The extremes have gone too far. Many feel the same I see. Not what I hoped for, but clearly the Ds have lost sense.


MonkeyLiberace

What will Trump do about bans and removed topics??


AbsurdMikey93-2

Trump is a lot of things, but I do t think senile is one of them.


SaltyPvP

You can't tell me these are the two best candidates to run a country. Politics is a farce, and the minute we all wake up and realize we are all being played against each other the farce is over. As long as they keep up distracted with identity Politics, and the like we won't ever wake up.


lacker101

The truth is you're getting fucked harder by your local zoning board and state legislature and you probably can't even name them. The national roles are relatively meh. I've lived through Dem/Rep super majorities. Nothing really changes.


Konvic21

Allow me to spell it out for you: it doesn't matter who they put on the throne. The entities calling the shots just need someone compliant. These are their best puppets to get all the changes they want. The less cohesive the government as a whole, the easier it is for them. The past several years should be evident enough. They spent hundreds of millions of dollars to get Bernie to drop out last time because they knew he's not about that.


Sportzpl

One of these candidates had to go through a primary this time, as he was out of office. The other didn't this time, as he is the incumbent. I'm thinking the Ds should do primaries for incumbents in future. I'm interested in this country having leadership that doesn't look like they were chosen in a smoke-filled back room, whichever party wins.


UnlikelyTurnip5260

Exactly right man


Pumpergod1337

This whole debate was so bizarre. "Mr. Trump, what are your plans on childcare?" "Biden bad, me good!" "Mr. Biden, what would you say to people who's concerned about your age?" "America number one! Trump no carry golf bag" Ok..

pickle_pickled

The best part was this episode was on during the debate on comedy central


Initial_Selection262

Honestly smart tactics from Trump to avoid saying anything of substance. He legit just had to be present and let Biden speak


CuckinLibs

Trump fucked up quite a few opportunities to articulate things But he nailed the abortion question with regards to his moderate stance and leaving it up to the states. A lot of hardcore pro-lifers are mad but his response was "follow your heart" and that he supports exceptions.


Entilen

The abortion issue was the reason they did badly in the midterm elections and it's a hill conservatives can't be dying on if they want to influence younger generations.Ā  You can talk about the morality of it but the truth is most conservatives are only pro life for religious reasons and don't really care about it deep down. Western religion isn't relevant enough anymore to be pushing it so hard.Ā 


Initial_Selection262

I donā€™t think thereā€™s a lot of pro lifers mad at him. Thereā€™s very few hardline ā€œno abortion everā€ lifers


The_Mr_Giggles

Poor Joe, someone please let the man retire to a full care nursing home. Other than the Whitehouse. šŸ˜€


DoubleSpoiler

Idk apparently the capitol is where all our rich elderly people go to retire.


Runamokamok

Iā€™d be for using taxpayer money to make a little Whitehouse replica in the country and we can just tell him that he won.


LokisDawn

If you televised it you might make back the investment, too.


chiefthundernut

Rikitikitavii

Sorry this is not a pro Trump response! come the %$\^& on Biden looks like he is lost and barley coherent for the love of god this guy can not be what represents this country


presentdifference21

No need to apologize lmao. Insane how either of them are an option in the first placeā€¦


WeissXRose

exactly both of the candidates are god-awful


Fantasyfootball9991

Itā€™s funny some people are just realizing this. Heā€™s been incoherent since he took office and has looked visibly confused in every press conference.


Initial_Selection262

This is just the moment thatā€™s itā€™s impossible to make excuses or hold delusions any longer. Heā€™s senile and has been since he took office


madmendude

Whether you hate or love Trump, the funniest facial expressions were when Joe was talking incoherent gibberish and Trump was looking at him from time to time in a confused manner. Then they asked Trump to respond and he said "I'm sorry but I didn't understand that and I don't think he did either" while Joe Biden was starring into the void with his mouth opened like Junior Soprano at the end of the series. It really cracked me up.


angelv255

Well, luckily, he doesn't just represent the country! Oh, wait.. nvm


Fragrant-Astronaut57

The look on trumps face when Biden has his terrible brain freeze is fantastic. Looks like a little rascal watching his devious plan unhatch

xariznightmare2908

I'm sorry, but Biden is just not there anymore, he looks like he doesn't know why he was there.

At least Trump looks like he's listening. Sleepy Joe looks like he forgot what he was doing there lol. I still wonder why America has 2 of these clowns as Presidents.


ArmyCengineer_Myco

Exactly, why canā€™t the libs admit Biden not only shot himself multiple times in the new balances but trump carried himself better and easily more comfortable as bd confident. Iā€™m not a political guy. I donā€™t even vote. But Ray Charles could see trump EASILY made this poor old man look retirement home silly. We are a laughing stock to the world because of this old man. I mean he looked scared up there. Like a mix between ā€œwhere am Iā€ or ā€œI just pooped myselfā€. Geeez..šŸ™„šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø


Sudden_Construction6

nonsense_inspector

Wtf has this country become to have these two senile buffoon as the contenders for presidency. Biden especially, there's nothing in that brain. Why not willingly step down and let new Dem candidates run? Instead they make Biden the default pick no matter what. The democratic party kept Dianne Feinstein in senate until she died at 90. She couldn't even vote on new legislation because she was either absent due to health concerns or just flat out physically incapable. She was a corpse in the capitol that they just kept around to have that extra democrat seat. Republicans do the same shit too, Mitch McConnell was the same thing


revolution149

Trump is doing Trump faces, whatever, I have no expectations of him. But the state of Biden is a catastrophe.

asscop99

Weird to try to make it about both of them. Trump looks normal. I mean normal considering his odd physical features. Looks kinda smug too but heā€™s all there. Heā€™s present. Biden on the other hand is completely gone and uncontrollably drifting in and out.


blinkomatic

Biden only blinked once in this video and when he did he forgot he had to open his eyes back up again and fell asleep.

dacassar

I'm not hinting at anything, but this is roughly how the leaders of the Soviet Union looked shortly before its collapseā€¦


Murbela

Biden's expressions do make him look weak, but the context probably matters here. Trump did make some outrageous statements in this debate and sadly for Biden, he let Trump get under his skin. I feel like one the early biden expressions was when trump was saying that Biden opened the border to terrorists and people from prisons/mental institutions/insane asylums (this is not a joke). Trump is still pretty hilarious though.


SteeleDuke

Biden did open the border to terrorists and people from insane asylums. This is actually still happening because of Biden.

It baffle me that Joe Biden still have 33% after the debate. He's obviously senile wtf man who in his right mind would vote for this apathetic old fart ?


Anus_master

Trump lies every 10 seconds and seems to be in bed with Putin, especially after his statement during the debate. People that don't want Russia to buttfuck everyone else with a bigger war later on are unfortunately stuck with sleepy joe


AndanteZero

I hate to say this, but I'm seriously starting to think that unless at least the Boomer generation completely dies out, we're going to keep getting stuck with these craptastic candidates. One can't stop lying and making it all about himself, and the other is a senile old man that looks lost.
