By the way, is Biden speaking even older than he really is? Phrases like “Alley Cat” and malarkey make him sound 20 years older than he really is,

It's his trademark word for bullshit.
Oh, I know, but again, it makes him sound even older. It sounds like an expression his dad or grandfather would have used.

We deserve better, between the constant stream of confusion and the constant stream of lies.

Has the debate changed anyone's mind on whom to vote for comes the general election?
If it gives @Jolly some joy, during the first 20-30 minutes even I found myself thinking "I want Trump back in office, maybe I'll vote for him".

Wow...look who's saying this.
Is it reasonable to extrapolate the decline curve? We have two very good points and we can forecast by their slope. Joe in 2028? Something approaching vegetable status?

If Joe stays in office, I don't think he'd survive beyond 2026. If he stays out of office, he might last a few more years. I get no pleasure in saying this, sorry if I said it before, but Joe.... he has the "look/sound" of someone nearing the end. The froggy old person voice, the transparent hair where you can see freckles on his scalp, the shuffle walk, the beady eyes, the open mouth stare. It's bad.

Me too. Then he lost it. Didn't answer the questions before him, went back to his same old tropes.

I thought that during the short bit I saw that Trump wasn't the same as in previous elections either. He seemed to be completely lacking in charm or any kind of personal connection. I'm not trying to downplay the Biden debacle because he was absolutely horrible, but Trump wasn't that much better. Does anybody really want either of those two to be running the place in 3-4 years time?

He would literally “give his life serving the country.”

The odds that Merchan sends Trump to prison in July went up dramatically last night.

It's his trademark word for bullshit.
It’s also a word I use when I tell my 17 year old he’s talking nonsense.
I don’t accept that it is an archaic word in the English lexicon.
Should be used here with impunity to put the resident cullions on notice.

What a great word! Much cooler than saying "scrote."
From Middle English coillon, from Old French coillon (“testicle"; also, "a vile fellow, coward, dupe”), from Latin coleus (“a leather bag, the scrotum”).

It leaves the vague idea that one is being derided.

NRO: One does not want to start a sentence with: “Number one, I didn’t have sex with a porn star . . .”
NRO: Time for Democrats to come up with their own Great Replacement Theory
Seen on X: "Those Robert Hur tapes must be awesome.

True. I’d rather be able to say “Hell yeah, I’ve banged plenty of porn stars”.

I heard an interesting thought. They dosed Biden too late. The particular drug cocktail might take a while to kick in, which is why Biden improved towards the end…
