COLOR ME STUPID. THIS IS WHAT I DON'T GET.

President Biden’s debate performance was simply disastrous. But who was watching? ~ 50 million people tuned in. But who were these people?

The Maga crowd couldn’t have cared less. They know, no matter the facts, statistics, realities or scientific evidence, the con artist is their man. He is their Messiah. When he refers to ‘losers and fools’ – comments he directed at our military heroes – the backbone of the Maga crowd doesn’t realize that their Messiah-con-artist-would-be king-thug already thinks of them that way because they really are the suckers and fools. 

The hard core Democrats know who they are going to vote for so what’s a admittedly disastrous debate performance going to do to their support for Biden? The reality is that it hasn't changed much for the simple reason that Biden is a decent man of faith and principle who has been an outstanding president, by any measure, and is the only person who’s beaten Trump. 

Then there’s the third audience; the disillusioned Republicans & Independents who are the swing voters. And what did they think? To illustrate the point I’m trying to make is that there has been only a two point change in the polls.

Not to state the obvious, but a political campaign has at least two viable combatants. Meanwhile, journalists covering the campaign of 2024, are only following the aging Greyhound rabbit around and around the track without covering the other combatant – meaning the convicted felon, Donald Trump & his hallucinations on the stump when he’s not reading from prompter (and sometimes when he is), framed by his pathological behavior melded to his autocratic wet dream, nor is there any evidence that anyone has even considered a Plan ‘B’ to defeat his ambitions and our demise.

If (and I repeat, IF) there is a Plan ‘B’ we need to hear about it now! Otherwise the greatest failure will not be Joe Biden’s disastrous debate and his failure to step aside, but it will be the mainstream media who are empowered to inform and educate us about our options, and failed to do so again. That's the real 'covfefe'.
