President Biden Interview Tonight: Redemption???

[Lazaran]

I don’t believe anything can redeem that awful debate performance.



I DO believe a strong performance in this interview (and future unscripted appearances) can reassure voters that the debate was a one-off, and that President Biden IS capable and competent. (See also: President Biden’s achievements over the past 3 1/2 years.)



The question is: Will anything satisfy the corporate mainstream media that seems to be actively driving a narrative to exacerbate division among Democrats for the ratings / clicks that an open convention, etc, would generate???



Probably not…

 

[butters]

isn't it only clips of the interview being run tonight, with the full screening on Sunday?

Last I heard, it was moved to prime time today, but I didn’t follow it much more closely after that.

I could be wrong.

But I would suppose that even the clips (if that’s all we get tonight), will provide some insight.

Axios is still reporting this:

https://www.axios.com/2024/07/05/biden-abc-interview-george-stephanopoulos

From the article:

“The big picture: The ABC News interview will air in its entirety as a primetime special Friday, July 5 at 8pm ET, the network said.”

Shit he was just grilled at the airport

Let’s see ‘rump handle that!

 

[Lazaran]

A VEEY STRONG interview performance from President Biden - AFTER he traveled and campaigned all day, AND while simultaneously ACTUALLY DOING THE JOB OF PRESIDENT. (unlike what the rapey, racist, demented, corrupt orange traitor / convict did.)

 

[Lazaran]

Side observation:

Corporate media reeeeeeaaaally wants President Biden to step aside so they can profit from the ensuing chaos and the clicks that chaos will generate.

George Stephanopoulos reeeeeaaally pushed the whole “people are saying” and “polls are showing” bullshit to try and break President Biden’s resolve and promote the corporate media’s self-serving narrative.



JFC

SAD!!!

Just started watching it.

i just caught bits of it tonight, but came away with the instant impression of annoyance at just how patronising Stephanopoulos came across... asking and re-asking the same basic question as if President Biden didn't understand what he was being asked.

i have yet to see consisive polls showing a consensus that any other dem has a better chance of beating trump than Biden, and none of them have his political career nous, background, sway and contacts.

 

[Lazaran]

none of them have his political career nous, background, sway and contacts.

That ^ is worth repeating.

Much of what was accomplished during this administration was largely dependent on those things.

The “intangibles”.



A negotiated ceasefire between the Palestinians and Israelis would be further evidence of the importance of experience and relationships - although I suspect part of the reason an agreement hasn’t already been reached, is because Hamas is helping Russia by occupying America’s and President Biden’s attention, and Netanyahu is helping himself AND the corrupt orange traitor, who Netanyahu would obviously prefer as the next American president, for obvious reasons.



Let’s hope President Biden can use his skill im international negotiations, and his connections in the region and around the world, to finally secure a hostage / ceasefire deal between the Israelis and the Palestinians..



The extra bonus is that it would bring the focus back on the war in Ukraine, and the famine in Sudan, Mali, etc.

 

[censurat]

he was awful

Your acumen on foreign policy is dismal at best.

1. The pull out of Afghanistan was not only instinctively wrong it was tactically and strategically a disaster, not only on the world stage but reverberated throughout domestic politics as one big lie. Stating that the pull out was a total success was playing the American people as being ignorant don’t believe your lying eyes stupid.

2. Biden waives sanctions on Nord Stream 2 pipeline at the worst possible time against bipartisan opposition. He didn’t adhere to his generals in Afghanistan or congress concerning Nord Stream.

3. He failed to completely wipe out the threat of Houthis missile attacks on shipping and U.S. military assets in the region. Wiping out the Houthis would have sent a stern message to Iran.

4.Biden failed to maintain strict sanctions on Iran. Biden basically propped up Iran’s economy allowing them to recover from crippling economic sanctions from the Trump administration. JCPOA was a total fraud but Biden is such a narcissistic sociopath he again blundered on the world stage. His lack of strategic planning and vision did nothing more than pad the economic coffers of the number one state sponsor of terrorism on the planet. The Oct 7th attack on Israel by Hamas was the step child of Iranian arrogance funded by Biden’s policy towards Iran and ineptitude in foreign policy.

5. At the beginning of the Russian invasion in the Ukraine there was a window of tactical vulnerability had Biden taken the initiative. Biden’s reaction to Russia with sanctions was soft but the most glaring strategic mistake was to nickel and dime military aid to Ukraine. Failure to provide Ukraine from both NATO and the US the types of combat vehicles and aircraft required to defend and defeat the Russian onslaught is typical of Biden indecisive foreign policy. Russian convoys were mired in miles long of totally exposed equipment that could have resulted in an Iraq style highway of hell pulverizing Russian equipment before they could deploy and engage in a tactically proficient engagement. Biden put handcuffs on Ukrainian military operations holding them to a strictly defensive posture providing military aid and equipment for defense rather than a strong offensive capability and response. The threat of nuclear War, we’ll, if you’re in for the Penny then be in for the pound, that’s the only way to deal with authoritarians like Putin.

Biden again vacillated with the Israelis war effort. Biden should have stood tall with the Israelis, provided them with overwhelming political support, overwhelming Military aid and intel, stern warnings to Iran and Hezbollah that any provocative action by either would not end well for them. Completely destroy the Houthis and point that stick directly at Iran, even taking out oil production platforms and shipping assets. Biden failed in maintaining strict sanctions against Iran making Iran rich in oil money. Eliminate Hamas quickly and effectively and not prolong the conflict allowing political walls and opinions to formulate. Get in and get out. The sooner the conflict is resolved the sooner the rebuilding process can begin. What we we have now is more of Biden’s indecisiveness, trying to steer the Israeli military response to enhance his own domestic political ambitions. He’s trying to convince Israel to defend themselves in a way that we would never agree to, hypocritical.

Biden put a wet blanket on our own energy production capacity at the worst possible time. Should have allowed US fossil fuel production to its highest capacity flooding the market with the intent to lower global prices which could have severely wounded Russia’s ability to fund the Ukrainian invasion and possibly forced a total collapse of the Iranian economy and maybe the terrorist theocracy, maybe even freeing the Iranian people from that brutal regime.

 

[adrina]

Why do you support someone for president who says they want to be dictator? See if you can rationalize it by just saying it's for one day. I'd like to see how you spin that. Why do you support someone who paid off a porn star to influence the election? Why do you support someone who called our men and women in service "suckers and losers"? Why do you support someone who added more to the debt faster than any other president in American history? Why do you support someone who openly shared American intel with Russian agents?

Tell us why.

So, traitor is it that difficult to answer these questions.

You seem to have trouble with it.

AH -AHA-AHAHAHAHAHAHA -HA

So, traitor is it that difficult to answer these questions.

You seem to have trouble with it.

I’m still waiting on the receipts from ineedhelp1 that show the DNC paid millions to a major law firm to engage in "lawfare".

I wonder how many millions of dollars the government spent on buttery males.

 

[jomar]

icanhelp1 is quite trumpian in ignoring factual debunking of his OAN based misinformation and continues to repeat the same disinformation as if it was the truth

 

[adrina]

Trump would never be able to sit down for an interview like this. If he did he would come off as even more of a lunatic than he already is.

 

[lovecraft68]

This will be as soft of an interview as has ever been given. Biden has had the questions for days and been practicing his answers, and elder abuser Jill will have him on the best drugs she can find.

Poor guy is going to crash hard after this. Waiting for him to have a damn stroke or aneurism on live TV, and I'm not saying that to be mean, what's mean is these soulless disgraces who are pushing him.

Haven’t heard or read about a change of heart from any of the prominent Democrat defectors so far. Maybe the mood will change over the weekend.

I didn't trash our military dipshit. I trashed Biden's military strategy, the military followed orders.

Hi Traitor! You keep dodging those ever so pertinent questions. I know you're awful busy stewing about Biden destroyin' Murica, but it seems to me if you have the time to write out all that tripe (who's kidding who, it's a c/p job from the daily dose of Project 2025 propaganda) then you should have the time to address those questions.

Or is it time to make the taters?

 

[HisArpy]

This entire episode saddens me.

It reminds me of one of those nature shows where the lions attack and the water buffalo is doing his best to keep them off. You know he's a goner no matter what he does but the camera just keeps rolling as the entire thing slow rolls to its inevitable conclusion.

Joe isn't up for the job anymore and those behind the curtain need to be told to just stop abusing him in front of our eyes.
