MSNBC host tests new talking point to prepare for Biden’s possible fadeout in debates

Only the liberal media could make the presidency seem like a disadvantage because their man is on the fight bus. MSNBC’s Alex Wagner appears to be getting a little nervous about Joe Biden’s potential obliteration in the first debate with former President Donald Trump on June 27. She talked about how Biden’s bar is higher than Trump’s, who just has to appear on stage, look alive, and get words out, despite what those words mean. This is his take on this upcoming duel between the two men.

The bar is higher for Biden. Yes, he’s the president of the United States. He should be able to defend his record with enthusiasm and not stare into space while walking away, as we have seen many times over the last few weeks.

The first debate is unfair to Biden because of the obstacles he faces. I can’t believe this is a serious topic of discussion, but I’ll leave it to MSNBC to lay the groundwork if a crisis ensues. They must keep liberal America’s blood pressure from soaring.

The irony is that this phrase that “the debate is unfair to Biden” is a tacit acknowledgment that the man doesn’t have the stamina to get the job done. And now that European media have seen this more explicitly at the recent G7 summit in Italy, where many publications highlighted Biden’s mental decline, the media is piling on these sandbags.

I don’t think Biden is going to be creamed. They’ll inject him with drugs and he’ll be convincing for most of the debate. Never underestimate anyone. Trump also can’t be too aggressive, as he was in the first debate in 2020, which did him more harm than good. Trump can fatally destroy Biden’s record, calmly and calmly. Consider it graceful brutality in dismantling the Biden presidency in front of a national audience. Trump doesn’t need to shout or interrupt; all he has to do is methodically kill this Biden administration by death by a thousand political cuts.
