I feel like Charlie Brown

and I've had the football pulled away by the Democratic party. I didn't vote for Biden in the primary. Biden was the nominee so like a good democrat I voted for him in the general. Biden won and I was elated. He in turn has done a fantastic job in all aspects. We have a great female VP, economy is good he lead us out of Covid the list goes on. Now I'm being asked to discard him for a Shity debate performance. He's demented or has Parkinson's or some other sickness. The medical records for the president are public information. His doctor said he is not being treated for any such problems. But the neurologist has been to the White House 8 times in 8 months. He has also stated he was not there to treat Biden. So there's that. A month ago I was watching Biden riding a bike and told he exercises daily. Suddenly he's much too frail to jet to Europe and back several times in a week and conduct himself with class and dignity while addressing veterans in France. I know what I'm going to do but I'm very afraid the Democratic party will continue on the path of grabbing defeat from victory and pull the ball out from me.

I don't see anything wrong with the post. The neurologist was in the White House multiple times, but he was there to treat other people, and not Biden. That hasn't been debunked.

Please look back a few weeks.
It was shameful how they lied, no fact checking at all. Please, I’m tired. Look it up yourself.
Prove me wrong. But delete this lie.

... where I support Biden-Harris and individual Dems but I think I'm dangerously close to done with the party on the whole.

I'm just so angry with the party for the disunity and disrespect for Biden -- and while he's trying to do his day job! And it's like there's no incentive for them to do better.

EDIT: I read the OP as being sarcastic regarding the medical stuff and frailty, etc; air-quoting others.

There are military personnel there, some with neurological problems or concerns. The neurologist examined Biden in January as part of his physical. The other visits were for military personnel.

The majority of Democrats are actually asking you to keep supporting him.

The medical records for the president are public information. His doctor said he is not being treated for any such problems.

Then what's the problem? It's not like this is that Jackson idiot claiming that Trump was the healthiest president in history and weighed 235, LOL

But the neurologist has been to the White House 8 times in 8 months. He has also stated he was not there to treat Biden. So there's that.

You know, there are a lot more people than just Joe Biden at the White House, and none of their medical records are public. This is a complete nothingburger.

A month ago I was watching Biden riding a bike and told he exercises daily. Suddenly he's much too frail to jet to Europe and back several times in a week and conduct himself with class and dignity while addressing veterans in France.


In what way did he not conduct himself with class and dignity? That's a real bullshit statement there.

I know what I'm going to do but I'm very afraid the Democratic party will continue on the path of grabbing defeat from victory and pull the ball out from me.

Read my post about getting the fuck in line.

The same lie that you are leaving up.
They didn’t fact check.
What’s your reasoning for leaving it up after you found out that the my times got called out for printing lies, the same one you talk about in your op.
