My daughter’s girlfriend’s mother is at my house.

Well I’m sure you managed not to show it -
Yeah I kinda doubt that

Nor is this guy

You’re not exactly the authority on maintaining credibility, bud

Wishful thinking, to adapt a phrase, is a helluva drug. In the aftermath of Joe Biden’s debate with Donald Trump, his well-wishers are claiming that it was just an off night. “Bad debate nights happen,” wrote Barack Obama in a social media post that’s garnered more than 100 million views. Reid Hoffman, the LinkedIn co-founder and a major Democratic donor, wrote that when Biden “does poorly, he tends to bounce back — and then win.” Biden himself told a gathering of East Hampton donors that “I didn’t have a great night, but neither did Trump.” Pure nonsense. It’s true that Obama had a bad first debate against Mitt Romney in 2012, just as Ronald Reagan had a bad first debate against Walter Mondale in 1984 — and both men went on to win resounding re-elections. It’s also true that Donald Trump’s performance — by turns bombastic, evasive, mendacious and meandering — would have been seen as embarrassing against nearly any other opponent. But Biden was his opponent, and the transparent problem with the president’s performance wasn’t that he debated poorly. It’s that he is suffering from serious cognitive decline, something from which there is no coming back. I don’t say this as a medical expert, only as one of many millions of people who have witnessed, in elderly people we love, the same symptoms we saw in Biden on Thursday: the garbled thoughts and slurred words and unfinished sentences; the vacant stare; the confusion. As a human matter, this is heartbreaking. As a political one, it’s disqualifying. Biden is asking voters for four more years to “finish the job.” Given recent reports in The Wall Street Journalabout the speed of his deterioration, that’s a promise he’d be unlikely to keep even if he somehow wins the election. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/06/25/opinion/thepoint#biden-debate-cognitive-decline Democrats need to stop with this “one bad night” nonsense. Literally no one is buying it. It’s actually insulting

That just means people are abandoning Biden. I will never vote for Trump and I can’t vote for Biden now. He simply is not up to the task. But I sure as fock ain’t voting for crazy ass RFK Jr. So I guess it’s write in or sitting this one out altogether. Thanks Democrats

Hunter is definitely a POS and if Joe is looking to him for advice he’s even more senile than he appeared on Thursday

Oh good, Biden is listening to the crackhead felon so I’m sure a well-reasoned decision will be made: President Biden’s family is urging him to stay in the race and keep fighting despite last week’s disastrous debate performance, even as some members of his clan privately expressed exasperation at how he was prepared for the event by his staff, people close to the situation said on Sunday. Mr. Biden huddled with his wife, children and grandchildren at Camp David while he tried to figure out how to tamp down Democratic anxiety. While his relatives are acutely aware of how poorly he did against former President Donald J. Trump, they argued that he could still show the country that he is capable of serving for another four years. Mr. Biden has also been soliciting ideas from advisers about how to proceed, and his staff has been discussing whether he should hold a news conference or sit for interviews to defend himself and change the narrative, but nothing has been decided yet. Aides were burning phone lines over the weekend to prevent major elected officials and financial supporters from abandoning him. One of the strongest voices imploring Mr. Biden to resist pressure to drop out was his son Hunter Biden, whom the president has long leaned on for advice, said one of the people informed about the discussions, who, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity to share internal deliberations. Hunter Biden wants Americans to see the version of his father that he knows — scrappy and in command of the facts — rather than the stumbling, aging president Americans saw on Thursday night.

Instead of Biden/Trump would you vote for any of these 3?

I’m impressed you found three people even sh1ttier than those two. Didn’t think it could be done -
That’s a rather bold statement on redraft. Odunze is behind two very good veteran receivers, they’ve also got a pretty good pass catching TE, and you’ve got the unknown of a rookie QB. Do you think Harrison Jr sucks or that Murray will kill his value, or what?

Nah it’s not political. That’s a cop out. He used to be a decent guy that I disagreed with but respected. But then he turned into a really miserable, angry and hateful person who gets really personal. It’s quite sad, actually.

Of course you do. Because you’re a racist and really a sh1t person in general. Not sure what happened to you over the last several years but you’re completely gone now

Okay it was twenty years ago, but… nailed it

Half Baked, that’s hilarious (as in, no way). Though I will say, the quitting scene was epic:
