Biden challenger Rep. Dean Phillips ‘sad’ to see president’s ‘obvious’ decline | CUOMO

The Department of Justice special counsel did not recommend criminal charges against President Joe Biden despite finding that he willingly retained classified documents, partly because a jury might view Biden as an "elderly man with a poor memory." Rep. Dean Phillips, D-Minn., said it was a “sad day” to see the release of the report and have to watch Biden respond to the claim he couldn’t recall the year his son Beau died. Commenting on Biden’s mental acuity, “the decline is obvious,” Phillips said.

Yeah, he died at Lexington. Or was it Belau Wood. Or Pearl Harbor. Or Danang.

[@brandogg]

If that's your take then that's pretty sad. I voted for Biden in 2020 because Trump is the worst thing to ever happen to our country as far as politics are concerned - but Biden has *got* to go, and it needs to happen now so that we can have someone who stands a chance at defeating Trump. Otherwise, he's going to win in an absolute landslide.

[@recifebra3]

not at all. that's the point of the special counsel to tell us WHY he wasn't charged. Biden should resign; he's an embarrassment to the office of the President of the United States of America. We deserve someone who knows what day it is.

[@gilernt]

@@brandogg Exactly. While I think Nikki Haley is pretty scary, I do like the fact dean here pointed out that she and him are both younger, competent candidates with new things to bring to the table, unlike sleepy Joe and Chester Cheetah.

tru, but i think he's pushing for a lot of government reform. for me, if it's inevitable to have an over-encroaching government, i'd rather have a reformed, more bipartisan gov. than the clusterfuck we have currently

Let's see who agree to be evaluated one on one by 3 top psychologists! Do you think President Biden would? Do you think trump would agree to be evaluated?

I agree with this guy completely on many issues. I however do not feel sorry for "Let's Go Brandon" for not only is he a horrible (policy wise) leader, but I do not feel sorry that he lost his kid because many good people lose their kids or close relatives that does not mean he is entitled to the Presidency, nor should I throw my brain away & get emotional over a guy who is in my judgement a white collar criminal. Nothing about this man, nor his party is good, nor redeeming. I am voting for Trump since he is my only other option.

Would you vote for Phillips if he was running in the general?

[@Robbiewa-bg4lu]

I am English and I am not a Democrat supporter but Dean Phillips is absolutely right on this. And if I was American I would be more to the Republicans and whilst I like Trump I do think he along with Biden is too old to become President again. And really the job of President needs someone younger.

No one votes for Dean. No one cares about what Dean thinks or say.

I'm a supporter of RFK Jr. In quick, random order, here's some of my reasons for supporting RFK Jr... -genuinely wants to unite the country, and he has the ability to, being liked by many different 'types' of people from across the spectrum of issues and ideas, who are tired of the 2-party duopoly -calm, humble, has integrity, has courage, truth seeker in general, thinks for himself (not a DNC/RNC puppet) -not phony -incorruptible, cannot be bought -thoughtful and introspective -deeply considers problems and possible solutions -wants to get rid of 'Citizens United' and the power of the big private money controlling government -vocal about putting an end to corporate capture over government (pharma, banks, oil, military industrial complex) -wants to get us out of 'forever wars' and to pull back on and expose the corruption within the military industrial complex -wants to pull back NATO and resolve the Ukraine problem via negotiations -vocal about the dishonesty and agendas of commercial media -wants to abolish all pharmaceutical advertisements on television (this has major influence on the 'news' narratives) -wants to keep the pharmaceutical industry honest with safety testing, transparency, etc -wants to get rid of government assist crony capitalism and subsidies for big ag, oil, etc -advocate for civil liberties -vocally against censorship (will free Snowden and Assange on 'day 1') -against mandates and police state-like policies -classical liberal sensibilities with respect of others (without the 'woke' or fake identity politics) -vocal commitment to transparency regarding FBI, CIA, NSA over-stepping and out-stepping -passionate about environmental and ecological concerns -passionate about cleaning our food supply and exposing the unhealthy ingredients in processed 'foods' -wants to bring preventative health more into public discourse; nutrition, exercise, etc -will immediately close the border (this is not some republican scare issue, it is a very major issue - for many reasons) -has an excellent plan to make homes affordable for all, including a program that backs mortgages at 3% and a tax structure to keep Black Rock from continuing to buy everyone out (this also will bring rent cost down dramatically) -due to his family/background, he's well-learned from the inside of the various power structures -due to his decades as an attorney successfully taking on major corporations, as well as government regulatory corruption, he is exceptionally well-suited for taking on the myriad of corporate capture over our government

Regarding why few people vote in Democratic and Republican primaries, a lot of us aren't in those parties. I am a member of the American Solidarity Party, and we have already had an active primary election and nominated Peter Sonski for president. The internal elections of two private organizations (the duopoly parties) should not get to decide a pair of final choices. Get outside those parties and cultivate more options.

Third parties are always spoilers in our system. Parliamentary systems are set up to operate with multiple parties because different factions can join together. Even Teddy Roosevelt couldn't win when he ran on a third party.
