Biden's Spectacular Failure in the Presidential Debate: A Personal Reflection

 #514

Note: I was away on Business Travel and back home last night,hence no posts for a week and also a delayed post on this topic. 


As an ardent follower of American politics and a staunch supporter of conservative values, I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of disappointment and frustration watching President Joe Biden's performance in the recent presidential debate. The debate, which should have been an opportunity for Biden to showcase his leadership and vision for America, (However dislike I have for him, he is the #POTUS) thus its place in the world, instead highlighted his weaknesses and inability to effectively communicate with the American people as well as exposed how vulnerable is America now under his Presidency. 

From the very beginning, it was evident that Biden was struggling to maintain his composure and articulate his thoughts coherently. His responses were often rambling, he appeared dazed as well as drugged, (Empty blank stare) and lacked the clarity and conviction that one would expect from the President of the United States. At times, it seemed as though he was grasping at straws, trying to find the right words to defend his policies and decisions. As Trump once said responding, "I can't comprehend what he just said". 

One of the most glaring moments of the debate was Biden's failure to adequately address the pressing issues facing our nation. When asked about the state of the economy, Biden's response was vague and uninspiring. Instead of offering concrete solutions to the economic challenges we face, he resorted to talking points that felt recycled and out of touch with the reality that many Americans are experiencing. This lack of a clear economic vision was a missed opportunity to reassure the public and demonstrate his capability as a leader. He mixed up Immigration and Abortion issues. 

Perhaps the most concerning aspect of Biden's performance was his apparent difficulty in responding to direct challenges from his opponent. (Hunter Biden Laptop etc.) Rather than addressing criticisms head-on and providing robust counterarguments, Biden often appeared defensive and evasive. This inability to effectively engage in a rigorous debate not only undermines his credibility but also raises questions about his capacity to lead in times of crisis.

The debate long held fears that Biden is unfit for the presidency. Thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, he escaped scrutiny in 2020 and managed to win the election, with Democrats allegedly stuffing ballots. However legal it may have been, this situation exposed the hypocritical media and leftist elements that have been lying to the American people about Biden's health all along.

This weakness now gives the axis of evil—Russia, Iran, North Korea, and China—an open invitation to do what they like, knowing America has a senile president. This blurs the memory of President Trump's spectacular performance on the economy, taxes, migration, and abortion. The left will never acknowledge Trump's stellar performance, choosing instead to focus on their narrative.


In contrast, President Trump, demonstrated a command of the issues and an ability to articulate a clear vision for the future. The stark difference in their performances was a reminder of the importance of strong leadership and effective communication in the highest office of the land. His response to Jan 6th, 2021, was a stunner, pulling the carpet off his critics' feet. 


As an observer of American politics and a firm believer in the principles that have made that nation great, I cannot help but feel that Biden's performance in the debate was a disservice to the American people. It is crucial for leaders to inspire confidence and provide a clear direction for the future. Unfortunately, Biden's lackluster showing in the debate did little to instill such confidence.

In conclusion, the presidential debate was a stark reminder of the challenges America faces as a nation and the importance of strong, decisive leadership. While Biden's performance was undoubtedly a failure, it also serves as a call to action for all Americans, to remain vigilant and engaged in the political process. The nation's future depends on it.
