President Joe Biden’s widely criticized debate performance reportedly caused Democrat donors to turn their back on the president’s reelection campaign. Pressure is mounting on Biden to step down, as many Democrats and media members displayed hysteria following a disastrous Thursday debate. Biden, who held a rally in Raleigh on Friday, his first campaign stop since the debate, was also scheduled to attend a fundraiser in New York Friday evening. Democrat donors backed out of attending Biden’s Friday event, New York Times reporter Kenneth P. Vogel revealed Friday in a now-deleted X post. “I am hearing that some Democratic donors are backing out of Biden’s fundraiser tonight

Last night FJB declared, "We finally beat Medicare!" Word has it that Jill has developed a phobia of ornate Vaudeville shepherd's crooks, and is dreaming about them, what they will feel like when they caress Biden necks before the pitiless sideways yank out of public life forever. Jill wants four more years of this. If trying for it croaks the Big Guy on national television, tough stuff. They got what they wanted. The funeral will be magnificent, fit for a resident. Afterlife will be warm to hot, though. Inveterate mendacity does have its consequences.

The only thing the "rally" proved is that FJB can still reasonably read. My grandmother and mother both suffered from dementia, Alzheimer's to be specific, and they both lost their ability to read so FJB had better not count on speech writers. In the debate he would put his head down and continue to mumble. I think he was looking for the note cards that he so heavily relied on. And you can see on his face that his brain is searching for the next words he needs to be saying. But his brain is no longer functioning correctly. It can't make the connection any longer. Five plus days for prep, possibly the questions in advance, and this is the best he could do. Time for FJB Nixon moment. The dems needs to walk across the lawn to the WH and tell JILL it is time to hang it up.

What took these donors so long ? What was it that tipped them off. He was no worse in the debate than he has been for the last 2 years. What rock have they been hiding under for the last 2 years.

Tell you who is shaking in their shoes ... if I were a Democrat running for House, Senate or Dog Catcher in any race somewhat close I'd be worried my chances are dropping fast. I see a Reagan/Carter 1980 where Reagan's coattails carried the US Senate to the Republicans for the first time in over 25 years. Maybe the DNC needs to ask the big time donors to try and salvage what they can. Nah, go ahead and let Biden take his 10% and waste the othet 90%.

This is also why Hillary will not be Joe's replacement. The donors lost millions on her. Twice.

China ridicules Biden’s disastrous debate

Chinese commentators basked in the wake of President Biden’s widely panned debate showing Thursday, savaging the 81-year-old on everything from his appearance to his voice to how often he blinked. Even media from America’s closest European allies lambasted the president’s “horrific’’ performance — while Vladimir Putin’s rep claimed the Russian dictator slept through the train-wreck showdown. “This debate was very entertaining for many Chinese people,” Hu Xijin, an influential pundit and ex-state media editor, wrote on X early Friday, brutally characterizing Biden’s and GOP foe Donald Trump’s Atlanta showdown as “a negative advertisement for Western democracy.”

That was BRU-TAL. We knew that there would be surprises and perhaps a bit of entertainment with this first (and maybe last) presidential debate of 2024 between President Joe Biden and former President and presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump. What we had no idea about is that Trump would mop the floor with Biden quite so effectively. Yet, here we are. [Tweet] Not since the 1960 Kennedy-Nixon debate have we seen such a terrible performance, and wherever Dick Nixon is, I'm sure he's grateful that someone else took that distinction.

As we reported earlier, the first presidential debate of the 2024 election cycle saw former President Donald Trump land a knockout punch against President Joe Biden very early on, with Biden looking and acting his age, his voice sounding hoarse and scratchy, and his mouth hanging open at times as shown on the split screen. Trump made several great points about the border crisis throughout the debate, peppering the issue into answers he gave on other issues, like on jobs and Social Security. In a failed attempt to push back, Biden declared that the border patrol "endorsed" him. Watch: [Tweet, video] In response, the Border Patrol Union fact-checked Biden immediately,

[Video] A six-figure ad campaign airing in several swing states, set to run during the first presidential debate on Thursday, will blame President Joe Biden’s border policies for the murder of Rachel Morin allegedly at the hands of an illegal alien MS-13 gang member. The $200,000 ad buy from the nonprofit Building America’s Future will run in Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Georgia from June 26 through June 28. In addition to the 60-second digital ad, the group will post mobile billboards and projections of the ad on famous buildings in Atlanta, Georgia; Greensboro, North Carolina; and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. “It just keeps happening,” the ad starts.
Three Hoaxes to Watch for in Thursday
Night’s Debate

CNN’s presidential debate rules are set for Thursday night as President Joe Biden looks to eviscerate his opponent by potentially raising debunked hoaxes. CNN opposes debate moderators live fact-checking Biden during the high-stakes event, network political director David Chalian announced this week. Neither are the moderators permitted to fact-check Trump, Chalian said, although they can correct an “egregious” misstatement “that needs to be checked or the record needs to be made clear.” Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, two extreme Trump critics, are the moderators. It will be up to them to referee the contentious and potentially highest-watched debate in history. Critics question whether Tapper and Bash can host an unbiased and fair debate.

Oved Bernardo Mendoza Argueta, a 37-year-old migrant from El Salvador, has been arrested and charged with capital murder of multiple persons by the Irving Police Department. According to police, on the afternoon of June 26, Argueta walked into the Chick-fil-A and shot two people in a planned attack. Argueta’s wife is an employee at the Chick-fil-A, police said, and witnessed the double murder.

An ad from Texas Republican Wesley Hunt, which is set to air on Fox News and CNN during the 2024 U.S. presidential debate, calls attention to President Joe Biden’s history of “racist” conduct while pointing to his “real record” on racial issues. The one-minute advertisement shows various clips of the 81-year-old Democrat president, as it criticizes his civil rights record while citing his past ties with segregationists as well as various racial comments throughout his career. [Tweet, video] “After fifty years of racist statements and racist policies, black Americans deserve better than Joe Biden,” it concludes.

It’s not just ‘the Charlottesville lie,’ it’s his ongoing compulsion to tie DJT to Hitler It’s been perhaps the most damning and most repeated allegation President Joe Biden has made regarding his predecessor, President Donald Trump – that Trump is a Nazi, or approves of Nazis. Biden made the charge when he first accepted the nomination to be the Democrats’ presidential candidate in 2020. In fact, according to the Washington Post in “For Joe Biden, Charlottesville defines the Trump presidency,”Biden claimed it was his very reason for running for president. He repeated it in his inauguration speech. And he has probably repeated it more often than any other accusation toward Trump.

This is an interesting although not entirely surprising move; the presidential campaign of former President Donald Trump has set up a website to fact-check President Joe Biden's claims and statements in Thursday's presidential debate in real time. This should be roundly entertaining. Ahead of Thursday’s debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, Trump’s campaign has launched a new website to “fact check” Biden along the way. Thursday morning, Trump’s team launched factcheckbiden.com to give real time updates and fact checks if Biden is caught lying. The presidential debate will take place Thursday night at 9 p.m. ET, on CNN.

Fox News host Jimmy Failla is a former cab driver turned stand-up comedian who often appears on Greg Gutfeld’s show, titled appropriately enough, “Gutfeld!” The funnyman released a mock commercial this week that Donald Trump shared on the eve of his scheduled presidential debate showdown with failed incumbent Joe Biden. I often argue that comedy and mockery are some of the best ways to expose the failings of bumbling leaders like Joe Biden, and this fake ad has it in spades. Parodying the countless drug commercials we see constantly on our televisions, the spot touts the fictional pharmaceutical “BIDENICA” as the solution to all your insomnia problems.

Millions just witnessed the end of a presidency live on television. Joe Biden’s performance during the debate was embarrassing. Whenever CNN put him up on the split screen, he had a thousand-yard stare. He didn’t look old. He looked ancient. He looked empty. But at least he wasn’t speaking. Because when it was his time to answer, Biden was incoherent. He said he “beat Medicaid.” (Photo) Asked about abortion, he randomly started talking about migrant crime. “I really don’t know what he said at the end of that sentence,” former President Trump noted at one point, “and I don’t think he knows what he said either.” At one point Biden just froze.

Raphael Warnock (D-GA) were sent into a phalanx of reporters as the Biden campaign’s surrogates with a seemingly impossible mission: spin a debate that even MSNBC thought Biden lost as a win for the incumbent. “To me, that was daylight and darkness … I care about substance,” Newsom said. “This is not about style … Biden not only asserted himself, he reminded people of his accomplishments and his vision for the future.”

I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debate as well as I used to,” Biden said at a campaign rally in Raleigh. “But I know what I do know,” he continued. “I know how to tell the truth.

First lady Jill Biden drew backlash from conservatives on social media after President Joe Biden's presidential debate fiasco on Thursday evening, with one X, formerly Twitter, account calling her a "monster." During CNN's debate in Atlanta last night, Biden answered the moderators' questions with what his administration has currently accomplished and hopes to accomplish in another four years if he's reelected in November. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump deflected many answers and had little to say about the exact policies he would enact as president. However, the biggest takeaway from the debate was the dismal job Biden did at answering

In the lead-up to Thursday night's debate, the conventional wisdom was that Biden had to convince everyone - party bosses and influential pundits especially - that he wasn't too old and addled to be the Democrat nominee again. Biden more than bombed, and there are essentially unanimous calls among Democrats for the party to replace him as the nominee. The undeniable star of the CNN spin room has been California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who's in Atlanta as a Biden surrogate and who's now looking mighty attractive to Democrats as a replacement. He's young (ish), handsome (ish), has better poll numbers than Kamala Harris,

Several major Hollywood donors for President Joe Biden have been sent into panic mode after President Joe Biden’s poor performance at Thursday night’s presidential debate. Anonymous Hollywood donors told Variety that they had received messages and feedback from donors in the media and entertainment industry who were panicked by what they saw from Biden during the debate. Donors reportedly called for Biden to “drop out” or they would not be “giving any more money” to the Democrat Party. During the presidential debate, Biden appeared to freeze. Biden also spoke with a hoarse voice and mumbled. The president was also unable to get through his closing statement without making a lot of errors.

On Friday morning after the presidential debate, ABC’s Good Morning America claimed that former President Donald Trump made more mistakes than President Joe Biden. One of the biggest focuses in this debate was if Biden was mentally fit to serve another four years; however, he was not able to meet this hope Thursday night. Co-host and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos admitted that “from the start, Joe Biden struggled to answer questions”, but unsurprisingly added that “Trump launched a series of lies and misleading attacks.”

Everyone, even CNN, knows that Joe Biden is completely lost. If anyone doubted that, the Thursday debate proved the point. And by completely lost, I mean that he could not maintain focus when asked questions, could not figure out how to look into the camera, and said many things that, frankly, made no sense. I flipped on CNN for kicks and giggles (and no small amount of schadenfreude) and was shocked by what I saw because, as we know, Democrats usually back their guy to the end—"to the pain," as one "Princess Bride" character famously quipped. Instead, I witnessed weeping and gnashing of teeth—and an execution squad.
