32. What none of those...

... who condemn people that – mistakenly, I agree – believed Biden's cheese was slippin' off his cracker, fail to take into account was the despicable refusal of people who knew the truth, but chose not to accurately report the truth.
Prior to the debate with the Orange Shitstain, Biden was on a whirlwind world tour. He fell ill and had a fever. So how would you fare if you had terminal jet lag and a fever, plus serious fatigue from lack of sleep, and insufficient prep time for a critical TV appearance, NONE of which was reported in toto so that people could logically connect those dots? The ever-present "consultants" – whose batting averages are nothing to write home about – told him, and/or his "team" not to postpone the debate. WHY is a question that will be chopped into chum for years to come, but I, for one, have no confidence in the consultants that "advised" Biden, or, for that matter, any of them presently whispering in the ears of our current party leaders.
Read the room, guys, and give the boot to those who tell you they – not YOU – know best how to cope with complex situations when they have no skin in the game.
