Debates

Jon Stewart was greatly distressed following the Thursday debate between former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden. On a special edition of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, Stewart lamented that the nation’s two choices for president are an “asshole” and someone who has “resting 25th Amendment face.”

On Friday morning, NBC’s Today acknowledged reality that Thursday night’s CNN presidential debate showcased a “tough night” for President Biden, who was nursing not only a “hoarse and raspy” voice, but showed he’s in serious cognitive decline with “concerns growing” about his fitness for office.  That said, however, the Comcast network shamelessly excused Biden’s porous night by…

As the night wore on, the mood got more dire at MSNBC. As different contributors weighed in, the message was continually driven that President Joe Biden is in deep trouble after his performance in the first presidential general election debate. 

One of the repercussions of President Joe Biden’s catastrophic debate performance is that Vice President Kamala Harris was brought out to do cleanup media. The vice president sat down for an interview on MSNBC, where she and host Rachel Maddow talked mostly about the abortion portions of the debate.

While it was obvious to all that President Biden’s debate performance Thursday night was an unmitigated disaster that had Democrats scrambling behind the scenes for a new candidate, it wasn’t for CNN’s lack of skewing the debate questions in Biden’s favor. According to a NewsBusters analysis of the questions, there were 11 from the left, seven neutral questions, and only three from the right…

There was no question about President Joe Biden’s disastrous performance during the first 2024 presidential debate, Thursday night on CNN. Even NBC political director Chuck Todd could not hide his disgust and declared that the President looked like a conservative media “caricature.”

Following the first 2024 Presidential Debate, the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) had very little to say in President Joe Biden’s favor. The post-debate coverage emphasized what was obvious to all viewers, specifically that the night was a disaster for Biden’s campaign.

Less than a minute after the presidential debate concluded, the panel at MSNBC launched into a despondent, funereal analysis of President Joe Biden’s unexpectedly (at least for the MSNBC panel) brutal performance. 

The liberal media was finally forced to admit that the senile president wasn’t wearing clothes following Thursday’s presidential debate hosted by CNN. As a member of a predominantly liberal/pro-Biden panel, Republican commentator Scott Jennings took them all to tack for trying to prop up President Biden’s campaign and lying to the American people about how cogent he obviously wasn’t.

Moments after concluding their presidential debate Thursday night, CNN journalists were in a full-blown panic over President Biden’s performance. They were disturbed by Biden’s “problematic” and “dismal” performance and admitted they were hearing from very senior Democrats that they were seriously thinking about removing Biden from the top of the ticket.

On Thursday, ABC’s The View decided to hoist the Biden campaign up one last time before the upcoming debate. The show included Whoopi Goldberg unsurprisingly angry towards Republicans who say "President Trump" and Joy Behar asking people to leave Joe Biden alone.

According to CNN’s Reliable Sources newsletter, moderators Jake Tapper and Dana Bash will be “fact-checking” Donald Trump during Thursday night’s debate, effectively making the contest a 3-on-1.  But how can a network like CNN, which has aired enough fake news to fill a library, deign to crown itself the arbiter of truth?

On CNN This Morning, CNN commentator and Never Trumper Jonah Goldberg says that in watching the debate, voters will be asking themselves whether, if they elect Trump, "is it going to be four more years of him tweeting like an escaped monkey from a cocaine study?"

On Wednesday, ABC’s Good Morning America decided to show their unwavering support for President Biden once again before the presidential debate on Thursday. Chief White House correspondent Mary Bruce also expressed her strong appreciation for former republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger endorsing Biden. Meanwhile, senior congressional correspondent Rachel Scott seemed amused by former…
