"No one stepped up to challenge Joe Biden" 🤣🤣🤣 Just like no one stepped up to challenge Hilary but the DNC had their thumb on the scale. Waiting for the Democratic party to exercise democracy again.

[DarrinRobot]

Hmmmm. I wasn't in those polls, nither was anyone that I know.

[dstarrII]

He's not the only one frustrated we're all frustrated that the media is keeping this BS going he says he's not dropping out get over it!!🤬🤬

[maxdream]

How can this tool be happy with the Federal Govts response to Hawaii??

On Monday, Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Virginia, reiterated his support for Biden during an appearance in downtown Richmond. Similarly, the Virginia Legislative Black Caucus issued a statement backing “shared policy positions” among them, Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, and one Virginia representative pledged full commitment to Biden, "our party's nominee."

[CraneDude]

Ya he’s frustrated you guys keep this BS narrative going move on already

[RODavis-mego]

In the press conference; as i remember, it was stated many times that the three times was a part of his three annual physical exams. Pease get your facts straight.

[jacklenshelton]

Yes put the concern out front watch Joe knows how to handle them. Think how long he has been doing this!!! He knows how to handle it!!!!

The pool has not always been right 100 percent! Why hang all your bets in the pool? The more you focus on the pool and continue to has on the President, you are absolutely doing more harm to the Democratic Party and the President. I want to encourage everyone to support the Democratic Party and the President!!! jtsdrd

[michaelaloesch]

My god she’s not dodging the question she’s just not giving the answer these idiots want!🤬

[mindyrosin]

Media...Stop. Just STOP! You're going to talk 'US' OUT of our democracy! GET OFF HIS LAWN!

[thegioinhocuabocautrang]

Those dems who are calling him to step down probably didn’t vote for him in the primary anyway. It’s democracy, not what some elitists want. The people have spoken.

[gregfoster]

Most people are more worried about that "Project 2025" by far. Preach on that please and let the choir sing it loudly.

UK: Swinging left
France: Swinging left
US: 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

You'll notice that this program has never said anything positive about Biden or anything he has done as president.

[JohnOhkumaThiel]

Governor Green really hit it out of the park, especially including his medical opinion as a physician. That was very impressive.

[jangarden]

Don't worry everyone, he's doing his "goodest"!

[mcgill]

I blame the party. They knew about his condition and made anyone look like a crazy conspiracy theorist or a right wing extremist for observing objective reality. Now that the lie has been revealed, it’s too late to recover and nominate another democratic candidate.
Now we are left with these 2 clowns as our choices.
This is what happens when we aren’t honest.

During Jan 6, many Republicans also wanted the same for the former Prez but then rescinded.
