Ahh, shit. Dem megadonor and supporter, George Clooney now calling for Biden to drop out. Damn, Damn, Damn

68. What angers me the most about Clooney's "take"

"Was he tired? Yes. Did he have a cold? Maybe"

First of all - MAYBE? Get stuffed

More important - "He was tired, but he was the same Joe at the fundraiser as at the debate". The fundraiser he flew straight from Italy to get to, that started at 10:45 PM Washington DC time and 4:45 AM Rome time? I saw the video of him chatting with Kimmel and Obama - I wouldn't have been that alert after such a long, long day and long, long flight. Schmoozing with VIPs afterwards would have made me feel like the sleep deprived POW from Stalag 17. Get stuffed twice.

By the way, Stephanie Miller attended the same fundraiser and found him to be a delight. Watching the debate, she did not think, "Oh no, he's deteriorated into a confused feeble fossil in the last two weeks, this is terrible." She thought, "Oh no, he's sick with the flu or something, this is terrible."

Last - Biden in 2024 is not the Biden of 2020. Duh. Every president except the lazy ones (Reagan, W, Trump) find that a 24/7 job with constant emergencies of vast proportions adds ten years to the FACE. Biden's doctor found NO cognitive problems and no significant health problems except two that affect how he MOVES - numbness in the feet and arthritis in the spine. So he doesn't run up ramps any more, George, unclutch those pearls. And get stuffed.

Lawrence O'Donnell talked to one of PJB's National Security officials last night, who said he has come to Biden with situations at all hours of the day and night and he has NEVER seen him be anything less than focused, ready with sharp questions, etc. NEVER.
