What Really Happened During the Atlanta Presidential Debate

This (very long but deeply informative) exposé of American journalistic failure reveals not only the malice they've shown toward Biden but also their inexplicable gentleness toward the other candidate who'd almost certainly put them all out of their jobs.

Not reported anywhere I've seen is how badly tRump's mind has been failing (perhaps because they're so used to his mental instability) or that he spouted 602 lies in 40 minutes during the debate (perhaps because he's known to have told more than 30,000 lies while he occupied the White House). And we've never seen a full accounting of why Biden was tired that night (as anyone would be, regardless of age, after such a harrowing week).

Rather than talking about the 34-times-over felon's (who's also facing 54 more felonies) horrific performance during the debate, or that tRump's physical and mental health are far worse than Biden’s (who's about the same age, btw), the mainstream press is only talking about how tired Biden was after a grueling week of actual work.

And let us not forget the ableism inherent in mocking a stutterer rather than exposing the other candidate's actual mock-worthy performance - a guy who presents as a selfish malignant sociopath and career criminal who’d be unemployable and likely unhoused if not for a $400 million inheritance from his likely-KKK dad, who constantly lies to hide the fact he was born between third base and home, and who's lost more money than he's ever "earned."

Our 79 year old president potentially had a stroke or other health emergency that is being hidden from the public and the media could not be less interested.

But somewhere out there Biden is still on the loose being old, which is of far greater journalistic importance.

I wonder how much it costs to buy a 'journalist'?

I'mma say it.

Most of the discourse around Joe Biden was based on ageism and ableism. The man was actually doing fine. He had a stutter, we all knew. But the media made a big stink about his age, ignoring what he'd been doing. And no, I'm not leaving the general public out of this. You bought it hook, line, and sinker, and in some cases, fueled the media speculation.

But trump might really be suffering from dementia, and is almost as old as Joe, but no one gave a shit. They just pretended his insane ramblings had substance.
