For the next debate instead of questions we can just have them compete in physical exercises. I want to see who can do the most push ups. That guy gets my vote.


deciduousredcoat

Okay, hear me out, we already have a standard: Have them do the Presidential Fitness Test that we give to highschoolers.


Karissa36

Will this be televised? Neither one can do a sit up without farting.


Uptownbro20

Hear me out. 50 golf courses in 50 states. 18 holes no cart. Which ever one wins and finishes all holes gets the White House.


Top_Huckleberry_8225

It's the no cart that really makes this an important test of democracy and not just public spectacle.


lntw0

I think you’re paraphrasing Madison.


LongjumpingQuality37

I think the OP was paraphrasing Billy Madison


Hershieboy

"Nudie Magazine Day!"


MajorBonesLive

If I’m being honest, and I mean really honest, I don’t believe Biden could finish the front 9 if he’s walking. And I’d give Biden the women’s tees.


Uptownbro20

Of course is adds in the challenge physical fitness. Not just the ability to drive the ball 50 yards which any avg person can do. The presidency is a demanding job


Ra_Vencio

Being a presidents handler is a demanding job. Can’t fuck over America and massively profit off of it without a sock puppet for a president now can they?


Uptownbro20

Only if your a senator from California


dfwguy21four

Whoever doesn’t die wins


JonathanPerdarder

Or they both die and we all win…


Ok-Resolution-696

That’s not even whoever wins, that’s whichever one of the mfers don’t croak


PkmnTraderAsh

Let's just make the [Presidential Fitness Test](https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/20/well/move/presidential-fitness-test-adult.html) mandatory for POTUS hopefuls. Maybe 1 mile in under 12 minutes, 20 push-ups, and 2 pull-ups? lol


Common_Economics_32

My bet is that the average Redditor can do none of those, so the idea of judging a 70 year old man for not being able to do all of them is so funny to me lol


hamthrowaway01101

No medics on standby either. The problem will sort itself out


marathonbdogg

RFK has entered the chat…


En_CHILL_ada

You seen the video of him shredding Jackson Hole with Travis Rice? Got my vote right there. https://youtu.be/jiehUh-I56o?si=wSBsEHL4x5ushRUb


KimsSwingingPonytail

Have them both draw a clock from memory. 


father_friday

RFK Jr. is probably the only one who can actually do a pushup, haha.


AllNightPony

They should bring back Shell's Wonderful World of Golf and have an 18 hole Sunday showdown. Loser drops out of the race.


FlimsyVillage6484

Do the put the shapes in the holes test


TheBoringInvestor96

Why not a cognitive test? Which is more important than a physical test


SeveralDeer3833

Do you honestly think Donald Trump has done a push up within the last 40 years


Redshoe9

Things I have wondered about trump Has he ever pumped gas into a car. Has he ever used a screwdriver in his life Has he cooked a single meal


RatLabGuy

Better idea - each candidate has to build a piece of IKEA furniture from scratch, using only the included instructions and tools. Then stand on top of it and jump. That way to get tests of cogntive skill, reading comprehension, practical knowledge, risk, and confidence.


Waste_Click4654

Feats of strength during Festivus


FreebieandBean90

Biden HAS to say this until he doesn't. The White House and campaign HAVE to repeat this, until it is over. It may be over by end of the week.


lefty1117

This is the right take imo. He has to present a committed stance until/unless he decides to drop out.


Cosmo317

Can we tell him the election already happened?


Remote-Telephone-682

Build him a set and let him live like he is in office for 4 more years


Downtown_Audience_10

I thought that's what they were doing now.


sopadurso

We kind of did this to our last dictator Salazar in Portugal. It was his regime, he fell from a chair when he was already old, he never regained full function, physically or mentally. So, he was kept in his oficial residence, custom made newspapers were printed just for him, and he got to “rule” until he died.


HOFindy

THIS is genius!!


bill_gonorrhea

mahvel50

This was probably heavily translated from whatever word dribble left his mouth


KidKarez

Lmao 100%


QueenDeadLol

>Biden talks a big talk but keeps fucking up. *Bidens cue cards and social media managers talk a big talk The senile old meat bag is literally just a placeholder. Dems don't care to replace him because he's already doing what they need. It doesn't matter if he shits himself and doesn't know where he is, as long as Dems check the box come election day.


tarheelz1995

There is no chance Biden carries the Electoral College. He trailed Trump in every battleground state BEFORE the debate. The Dem Convention will tell us whether the party wants a chance at winning or whether they have already resigned themselves to losing.


Splith

Exactly. I felt dread every time he opened his mouth. When the moderator said he had 40 more seconds, I felt terrified. 


Weekly-Sugar-9170

He has made a career out of lying. At this point he’s under the impression he creates the truth and everybody will believe anything he says.


Dcasterix

It's a bold strategy Cotton. Let's see how it plays out for him.


MrRGG

Post the audio/video or it didn't happen. Like when Kamala says Biden is super sharp and strong and leading in private... Evidently he only has dementia in public.


intrepidOcto

Reddit has been telling us that Biden is perfectly AOK. Then the debate happened and they had to face reality. Then the excuses and deflection came, and the major subreddits are back to the same. Like clockwork.


Previous-Display-593

The cope on the popular subreddits is truly next level. "Its a stutter", "Its a cold"....nah morons the dudes brain is fried.


RedditIsDeadMoveOn

The record *must* be corrected.


Far_Butterfly3136

Yeah I was gonna say, they are doing everything in their power to NOT face reality. Vast swathes of redditors are still insisting that Joe is up to snuff and we should all be voting for him.


number_1_svenfan

Up to snuff and up to sniff - all those little girls.


YummyArtichoke

He's totally fine! Nothing wrong with him! Well he might be brain dead, but he's not Trump. I'll vote for anyone against Trump! How about we replace Biden with someone alive then? NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!


UpRightDownDownDown

The amount of people unironically saying they will vote for a corpse is just sad. Like obviously the dems have your vote no matter what so how would running someone else be bad?


gfen5446

This isn't even about an election anymore, this is about being the current President. He's not well. I do not trust my country to him because he's not making the choices. As far as I'm concerned, the Democrat Party can fuck their election up however the fuck they want, I just want someone who's going to answer the phone at 3am and *do* something other than mumble while a shadow goverment does the real work.


gr8uddini

Remember in 2016 when people were shamed for not liking Hilary and saying she was a weak candidate. “Bernie Bros will be to blame if Hilary loses!”, or “this is the most important election of our lives, just vote Hilary next election you can vote for whomever”. It’s the same folks and the same excuses, deflection, unawareness, and condescending bullshit.


mijoelgato

And if the corrupt DNC hadn’t rigged the past primaries we wouldn’t be in this situation.


traw2222

Seriously wouldn’t be surprised if Reddit is overrun by bots from the left downvoting anything negative about Biden. I said something completely logical the other day and had like -6 downvotes within a couple minutes. Not that I care but it definitely sends that comment straight to the bottom and suppresses those ideas. Saw a post saying someone would vote for whoever is on the ballot as long as it’s democrat and had 3 awards before it even got any votes. Strange. I think after the debate the outrage was so loud that bots couldn’t suppress it which is why you saw tons of people talking crap about Biden for a little while even though it’s super rare to see on Reddit.


intrepidOcto

I wouldn't say it's bots, just a bunch of geniuses looking for guidance. Every time there's a big Dem fuck-up, reddit is suddenly sane for a bit, especially the main political subreddit. About a day later, right back to the agenda. Hell, they tried to pitch "he has a cold" as Biden was showing his cognitive decline in the debate. And somehow now are spamming articles saying Trump isn't cognitively there. I mean, everything that came out of Trump's mouth was a lie, but he looked like 2016 Trump. Biden looked and sounded like a confused grandpa in a nursing home. "we beat medicare"


Miserable_Practice

It should be an official statement. Audios can be deep faked so easily nowadays


VeganFoxtrot

The DNC literally has a golden opportunity to reset the candidate and try to pull back in all the progressives (Israel war) and independents (inflation) they've lost during the past few years. If they're too stupid to see that, they deserve to get crushed in November.


number_1_svenfan

The same people who whine about democracy are going to disenfranchise the voters who voted in the primary for biden. Those same dems who kept Rfk jr off the ballot. But you know - trump blah blah . Hypocrisy to the end.


VeganFoxtrot

Primary was a joke though. My state Florida didn't even have one. You can't disenfranchise what wasn't a legitimate primary.


Hypothetical_Name

And republicans who think trump is terrible


BigTitsanBigDicks

'Who cares what the voters want, this is a Democracy for godssake!'


SoupeurHero

Nobody is forcing him out, he's being asked to bow out. If he really cared about trump not winning he would give someone with a better chance the opportunity. He's being selfish and I blame him if Trump wins.


thehourglasses

Dark Brandon won’t go down without a fight, at least not until he’s had another ice cream cone.


Automatic-One7845

You can take that to the bank, Jack!


BlackSER

Did he have a teleprompter mirror in front of him?


RunExisting4050

No. There were 11 jumpcuts in his statement.


Imallowedto

He says this as the governors are meeting with him. He IS going to lose the election.


DarKuda

Good work buddy. You finished a whole sentence and it had some big words in it too. Well done Biden. Here’s a cookie. 🍪


Zimmy68

The best news Trump supporters want to hear. Once they see Trump's political ad, no narration, just Joe trailing off and saying he killed Medicare, on a loop. I think Joe changes his mind or has his mind changed for him. Sadly, I think Biden is lying to gauge reaction.

Difficult-Mobile902

he may be in the race til the end, but definitely not the 4 year term if he wins 


Key-Wrongdoer5737

I took care of an aging grandparent that had dementia and he was more with it than Biden. And he wasn’t allowed to plan his own day, drive, go anywhere alone expect the bathroom or control his money. Voting for Biden or advocating for him to stay in is advocating for elder abuse. And the Democrats did this to him and made sure we didn’t get a primary to decide if we actually wanted to go through with this. Now they’d rather risk Trump getting elected for what? Jill Biden’s ego? Honestly, fuck Jill Biden for doing this to her husband! If they actually believed that Trump was a threat to democracy, the Bidens would have stepped down and let the voters select a replacement. Now they’ve thrown the Democratic Party into chaos and are risking its destruction all for their own ego!


Contagious_Zombie

Just like how Ruth Bader Ginsburg was too fucking prideful to step down for the betterment of the country. Instead she refused to step down and it screwed everyone over for possibly many decades to come. These arrogant old fucks need to get the fuck out of the way so people that have futures can help shape it in a direction that benefits the rest of us. I swear the DNC is a death cult.


azger

Texasduna

"Now who am I talking to again?"


LostByMonsters

Spoiler: he’s not going to win.


NebulousNitrate

Reminds me of when there are like 90 year old presidents in Africa that refuse to step down. Biden vowing to stay in office shows it’s all about his desire to retain power, rather than do what is best for the country. Corruption through and through.


Acceptable-Sugar-974

kev_95_punk

Biden was being touted as a one term president in 2020. They thought Trump will be caught up in legal troubles and barred from running and changed their mind to try and get an easy re-election but now all of this has backfired and the DNC is panicking about what to do


chronobahn

It’s kinda crazy how the left keeps talking about ‘dictatorship’ and the ‘end of democracy’ yet all they can muster up is Biden? It’s starting to look like they don’t even believe themselves.

Elder abuse


Inside_Category_4727

While his determination is admirable he is asking us to ignore his performance in a debate where he essentially chose the time, place and rules. It's like we're in a boat headed for the falls, and Joe won't let go of the paddle.


cutememe

He's literally handing the victory to Trump by doing this, I don't get it.


disappointingchips

No, you’re not going to win. You’re going to usher in a christo-fascist regime and subsequently a revolution when the people don’t support it. There is nothing but violence ahead, and it scares the crap out of me. Stand aside Biden, let someone more capable take the reins. You’re a puppet. We need more than a puppet.


ItIsYourPersonality

Somehow RFK Jr won the debate despite not being invited to participate.


BahnMe

Well GGs. Conservative SCOTUS for another 20 years, R senate, congress, etc and Biden's legacy is about to get it's back blown out. I'm rich and I'm probably going to get richer under DJT so I'm fine but this R domination probably won't be great for the country and horrible for some minorities. edit: In case anyone is curious, this is leaked Biden campaign internal polling: [https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fi-hope-this-is-finally-ok-to-really-talk-about-here-but-v0-dtgxaju2t8ad1.jpeg%3Fwidth%3D1317%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D7c173006539116770a3faec67ffcca1a9295b89d](https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fi-hope-this-is-finally-ok-to-really-talk-about-here-but-v0-dtgxaju2t8ad1.jpeg%3Fwidth%3D1317%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D7c173006539116770a3faec67ffcca1a9295b89d)

DJT stated economic policies so far: Interest rates, what interest rates? 10-60% blanket import tariffs. Remove all income tax. $$$$ for me for however long a USD will be worth anything. Maybe it is time for crypto lol.


darodardar_Inc

The stock market has consistently hit all time highs under biden lol You're going to ignore that and say "the stock market is literally waiting to rally around trump's election!" Such disingenuous bs and you know it

Wouldn't that be considered a lie? There's enough talk from people around him that he's considering dropping out. The more important question, if he's not mentally able to run as the Democratic candidate, then why is he mentally able to continue as President?


jordan1978

Then he asked where he was.

salmiakki1

The fact that he didn't have a press conference to announce this says it all. Just like he didn't show up on any Sunday morning news shows.

When did he say this? Did he say it in front of people? Did he say it without gasping for air? He got back from overseas a month ago and he's still going through jet lag, it's okay.

Allan Lichtman has said it would be foolish of the DNC to switch out Biden now. Only time he got it “wrong” was when scotus ruled on an election for Bush. Which we are admittedly at risk of scotus overruling an election this year, but it seems otherwise Biden meets Lichtmans criteria.

humptydumpty369

The problem isn't finishing the race to win the election old man, it's living for another 4 years, with your wits about you, to lead this damnable nation out of the grips of fascism. I'm not sure there's anything that can convince me he will be healthy 4 years from now, considering how much he has aged and declined in the last 3.5. I sure as hell don't want the insanity that the GOP is threatening, but we need someone healthier than Biden. That's just the honest truth.


Zebra971

Yes this is what politics is about Biden has the fire of RGB and Diane Feinstein, keep fighting even after the are sick. And if you lose and the republic suffers, at least you are not a quitter. /s. I’m so sick of old politicians I could barf. The country is run by nursing home patients.


OkImplement8084

With the inflation on everything these days, he had time to fix it. He will not win. Can’t wait to get back to a $2/gallon gas price and not 4x of the amount for groceries. It’s ridiculous.
