Well, POTUS interview with George S...

[LuckyCharms]

Consisted of George asking the same fucking question 900 different ways because he wasn't getting the answers he wanted.

I think I may need a break.

It's the fucking Twilight Zone out there.

[emulatorloo]

1. Endless hypotheticals. "What if Chuck Schumer shows up in your office wearing a Tutu and stands on his head?"

Oh shit, the ABC analysts are coming on now!

[LuckyCharms]

6. That's exactly what it was like.

[MOMFUDSKI]

2. Onward. Can't quit now.

Go Joe!!!!!

[Disaffected]

3. What a disrespectful asshat

this George S is. Biden should tell him to cut the crap.

[Trueblue1968]

29. I think george is an asshole..... Horrible man.

[Deuxcents]

4. I did not watch. Didn't want to. The media, imo, is most of the problems for us.

They have their favorites, which would be fine if they were honest about the information they put out but, they are so blatantly slanted and biased and that’s not their job. They are to report the news after verifying the facts, not make the news to support their sponsors.

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

5. I did not watch either. I'm watching my cousin Vinny on IFC.

[KS Toronado]

15. Could you buy him a nice tan suit so he doesn't get in trouble with the Judge?

[JoseBalow]

18. He was serious about that?

[KS Toronado]

23. Good one!

[Comfortably_Numb]

44. As serious as he was about the two yutes.

[calimary]

12. Neither did I.

Sick of the attempted hatchet jobs. Sick of the media people who are all hungry to build a reputation as “the giant killer”.

It’s just NOT called for, in this case, dammit! Or maybe George is secretly working for the donald?

[misanthrope]

13. They aren't slanted toward candidates but toward controversy

because they see it as good for ad sales. This is what for-profit journalism looks like.

[PatSeg]

31. Yeah, I'm avoiding the news

I'll tune in next week when Lawrence is back on. I'm also avoiding the late night talk shows. I can't take any more stupid ageism jokes.

Hey, maybe I'll just give up on cable news until after the election.

Old movies and binge-worthy British television shows. Reruns of Cheers have really kept be grounded as well.

[shrike3]

51. I didn't watch, either. Not sure if I'll ever turn on the news again.

[Think. Again.]

7. I agree...

...and what was with the camera focus problems and bad audio?

I was watching on ABC's youtube channel, and we all know they understand a bit about how to adjust sound.

[KS Toronado]

20. Very bad audio

Volume was so low I could barely understand Biden , George was low but understandable. Had to turn volume
way up more than I've ever had to for other programs, usually old movies, and then it had a grainy feel to it
for lack of a better term.

ABC has slowly been showing me they're not in Biden's camp and tonight's hit-job broke the camel's back.

And they host the last debate, maybe we need to renegotiate some terms since we now know the cards are
stacked against us.

Who else noticed volume problems?

[global1]

8. George Just Wanted To Be Seen By TCF As A Loyalist.....

George is afraid that if TCF wins - George will be put in front of a military tribunal like TCF wants to do with Liz Cheney.

So if George looks kinda like he challenged Biden - he maybe can talk his way out of the lock him up talk.

[Ligyron]

22. Somebody please help me out here.

I know what TSF stands for but what is this new TCF I keep seeing lately?

Thanks!

[Traurigkeit]

24. The Convicted Felon

[Ligyron]

35. Thanks friend!

I was thinking something obscene, lol.

[Nixie]

9. We have to wait until 8 West Coast to watch, but now

it's not sounding like a good idea. A preview of it at 5 p.m. did show the badgering, so it's sad to hear that's all there is.

[littlemissmartypants]

10. I'm repeating myself but...

Stephanapolous is an ass. I meet him in the 90's when I lived in Georgetown.

He was an egomaniac then as he is now. He's never been anything more than a "personality" posing as a reporter.

I didn't waste my time on his stupidity then or now.

[Patton French]

11. He was clearly trying to shame and provoke the President.

Joe did well not to fly off the handle, which I probably would have done.

[KS Toronado]

21. When he was badgering him for a cognitive test

I would have said "I too can remember easily"

[Diraven]

43. Unfortunately the headlines now are all

"Biden Refuses Cognitive Test"

[KS Toronado]

50. Figured those were coming around the corner.

Wish Biden would have said "No Doctor has ever suggested I needed one, unlike trump"

[Grammy23]

14. He kept repeatedly asking Biden what it would take

To convince him to drop out, After the second time that Joe all but told him to buzz off, he should have moved on to different questions. It seems very likely that he did not prepare much more than a few questions designed to hound him into throwing up his hands saying….OK! I give in. Y’all win. I quit!

Good for Joe for sticking to his guns. And good on him for taking the opportunity to outline his achievements and explain that THOSE achievements are why he believes he is the best guy to beat trump (again) and help the American people move forward toward more success and prosperity.

[debm55]

16. When is tRump doing an interview? And , Lucky Charms, you are so right about the same question over and over. Thank you

[Moosepoop]

27. He isn't.

ABC offered the same interview to TSF, and... he declined. What a chicken!

[Sylvermoon]

17. Stephanopoulos

What did we really expect from this joke of a “journalist”. Shitty interview but Joe did great. I’m with Joe!

[Traurigkeit]

25. He has never been a journalist

[question everything]

40. Interesting, though that the Sunday talk program carries his name, but he has not been there

for months.

[Traurigkeit]

41. He is the character William Hurt played in BROADCAST NEWS

[JoseBalow]

19. George Shutdafukupoulos

[lefthandedskyhook]

26. George is an obedient media sellout

Look who he works for. What did you expect? I have not liked the guy since he carried water for jr bush

Biden did fine and George was required to challenge him

[WarGamer]

28. Did Joe just say "I'm running the world"???

[LuckyCharms]

32. Essentially, yes.

But then I think he added the explanatory comment that the US is the key player in the world, or something like that.

I got his point, and I do not think the statement hurt him.

[Deek1935]

34. And right then clarified that he meant we are the most prominent country in the world. He meant BIG foreign policy work.

[Bettie]

30. Maybe George is the one who needs a cognitive exam

since he seems to only be able to ask one question over and over and over.

I mean, maybe he was forgetting that he had already asked that or he's just an asshole.

[LisaL]

33. Yep.

Something must be wrong with his memory.

[Captain Zero]

48. Everyone says he kept repeating the

Same question.


That would be a sign.
When will George Stepandknockkusup take his cognitive test !

[sheshe2]

54. Lol!

[ancianita]

36. I hated it.

[Kaleva]

37. It's to be expected. It's what people are interested in.

And by people, I mean the folks outside the DU bubble.

Biden is going to have to take the heat, appears willing to take the heat and from reviews I've read so far, handled the interview well.

[question everything]

38. Glad I did not watch. How long was it supposed to have lasted?

I was out for half an hour but when I returned there was Jeopardy on ABC..

[LuckyCharms]

39. 20-25 minutes I think. n/t

[Quiet Em]

42. President Biden did well in the interview

especially at the end when he said it was an issue being pushed by the media. That is exactly what this is, an issue being pushed by the media.

[rgbecker]

45. Biden can handle the pressure and has shown it his entire career.

No one is stepping up to claim they could do better in the race against the criminal Trump. Everybody, please get a grip.

[Trueblue Texan]

46. Maybe George has cognitive issues so ...

...he can't remember the answer to the question and has to keep repeating it.

I stand by President Biden.

[LisaL]

47. We should demand that George gets a cognition test.

After all, a journalist should remember he asked a question already.

[GenThePerservering]

49. George kept forgetting

memory issues, George?

[Beartracks]

52. Self-deleted

Posted in wrong spot.

[Beartracks]

53. Didn't watch, but i gather that George wasted everyone's time. But -- how was Joe?

How did Joe handle the disrespect of this sensationalized waste of a sitting President's time? Do people think he made any headway?
