    Remember in 2020, he ran as a one term President?
  • Last week they were all saying he was as sharp as ever, this week Obama gives them permission to tell the truth
  • @FirstyPaul
    All of the people around him are more concerned about their jobs than the country.
  • @donwon7592
    Ohio and Michigan demanding he step down. You can’t win without the Midwest. GTFO!
  • @SimonAZ
    If you had elderly parents we all know there is a moment you have to say "let's not renew your drivers licence". That's not lack of loyalty. It is caring.
  • @sachiperez
    cooper slips and calls biden "the former president". it's over.
  • @dandaluz1
    Any 81 year old grandpa would get mad when you tell him he can’t drive anymore. It’s normal for him to become upset.
  • @tangsten
    Calling his secretary of defense as "the Black guy" is bad. But there is no outrage. Can you remember the black Job outrage? Double standard.
  • @mstone9364
    If this isn’t proof that the two party system is broken then idk what else could be
  • @john-brady
    He’s 81 years old and there is no hiding it…
  • @kdub1242
    At this point, the options to stay or leave might be practically a "heads I lose, tails I lose" proposition. If he stays, it appears he will lose. If he leaves, the disarray will likely cause the Dems to lose. Sigh. At least as early as 2016 with Hillary, the Dems have demonstrated their complete lack of political strategic ability.

    if Kamala can't bring in the number one position in an open convention, why can't she still be vice president to the most popular person which at least gives the illusion of democracy? She'd still be on the ticket, therefore still be able to carry the donors and move things forward unless there's something else I'm missing? Seriously, I don't see why this doesn't ever come up unless there 's a legal thing or they just don't want to address it?!?

    Ha ha ha The party of Democracy is tossing out ten million primary votes and installing a new candidate.
  • @Krispy1011
    You see and hear him, I see and hear him, the whole world sees and hears him!
  • @CampStoveGuy
    They lied for years but we’re supposed to still support him?
