७० टिप्पण्या:

Dave Begley म्हणाले...: Now we know that Seth Meyers is the biggest tool.; २७/२/२४, ८:५६ AM
MadisonMan म्हणाले...: I notice Biden says he got things done (and they said we couldn't get them done -- as if that's supposed to impress?) -- and he never ever lists them. I assume it's because he's forgotten.
I'm not going to watch much of a fellating talk show host with Biden. There is just nothing interesting in that for me. I'm sure it checks a boss with Seth Meyers' bosses to have Biden on, and maybe got him a ratings bump. But Meyers is being used.; २७/२/२४, ९:११ AM
MadisonMan म्हणाले...: And I notice the clip starts with Biden seated -- so we don't have to endure the agony of watching an old old man shuffle across the stage.; २७/२/२४, ९:१२ AM
mikee म्हणाले...: Unconditional surrender. The Israelis are under zero obligation to agree to anything until Hamas is destroyed utterly.; २७/२/२४, ९:१३ AM
AlbertAnonymous म्हणाले...: Lies, same lies as always, projection, Democracy is at stake, Trump bad Biden good, and a bunch of stuttering and gobbledegook. I don’t think this appearance will do him any good. He lost track of his thoughts at least three times with his standard “….anyway, I don’t wanna go there” line.

Also, did the Seth Meyers show report the massive “in kind” contribution he just gave the campaign by publicly fellating the guy on TV?

Total garbage.; २७/२/२४, ९:१६ AM
AlbertAnonymous म्हणाले...: ही टिप्पणी लेखकाना हलविली आहे.; २७/२/२४, ९:१७ AM
kylos म्हणाले...: Why does the President of the United States have a Ukraine flag on his lapel pin next to the US flag? Ukraine is a vassal state, not an ally. I suspect the truth is because he personally owes Ukraine.; २७/२/२४, ९:१८ AM
Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: Didn’t see the whole video, but I bet the self immolating soldier outside Israeli embassy never came up.; २७/२/२४, ९:१८ AM
retail lawyer म्हणाले...: Ann, you're supposed to watch this for us. Anybody else unable to watch this, even unable to try to watch this?; २७/२/२४, ९:१९ AM
RCOCEAN II म्हणाले...: joe biden is one cool cat!; २७/२/२४, ९:४७ AM
Michael Fitzgerald म्हणाले...: Thank you, Kylos for pointing that out- The president of the USA wearing the flag of a foreign nation. This fucking traitor is literally wearing his treason on his sleeve.; २७/२/२४, ९:५१ AM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...: I can't do it. Too painful.; २७/२/२४, ९:५६ AM
Howard म्हणाले...: I am absolutely shocked that this didn't impress all of the Trump loyalists here on the Althouse blog. You could tell that Seth Meyers did not agree with the Biden administration opposition to the ceasefire. His unwavering support for Israel and trying to help them to get out of this pickle is very reassuring to all of my Israeli friends. Also his call for getting rid of the extreme right wing and their evil alliance with the religious death cult that is the passive aggressive version of a terrorist in the settlements is the only way there will ever be a chance at a reasonable solution.

I wish you had had the balls to go on with Joe Rogan or at a minimum Bill Maher. I agree completely with Dave begley that Seth Meyers is a complete and total tool and shill for the Wokester end of the DNC; २७/२/२४, ९:५७ AM
Tommy Duncan म्हणाले...: Anyways... Another trail of incomplete sentences.; २७/२/२४, ९:५७ AM
Bushman of the Kohlrabi म्हणाले...: Things must be looking dire if Joe has to beg for votes on DNC TV.; २७/२/२४, ९:५८ AM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: "Ann, you're supposed to watch this for us. Anybody else unable to watch this, even unable to try to watch this?"

I watched about half of it. It's a set-up interview but he seems to be displaying the ability to think and speak that meets the low standard that has been created for him.; २७/२/२४, १०:०७ AM
Money Manger म्हणाले...: It was not a disaster for Biden. But if it had been a disaster, they would have not let him go on, or it would not have aired. So it’s at the margin, as bad a take as we could see.

But I still picture a million of Seth Meyer’s young hip viewers at home reacting the way the Omega Frat reacted when candidate Kent “Flounder” Dorfman’s picture was presented in the slide show.; २७/२/२४, १०:१७ AM
Static Ping म्हणाले...: Twitchy found a couple of amusing details to this. First, media was pushing that this was an "unscheduled surprise" despite the fact that it was announced several days ago. Second, some media was also pushing that Biden stayed up late for this, despite the fact that the show is taped at 4pm.

It is funny, but it is also showing an intentional gaslighting campaign. See, Biden can stay up late and have conversations on the fly! Except it not late nor spontaneous. They are lying to you. Again.

Grandpa Publius म्हणाले...: Seth Meyers is predictably progressive(and wrong) in everything he said. But, he said it in complete sentences. If pressed, Seth Meyers can engage in a back-and-forth conversation. It is clear Biden cannot. Imagine being a Biden adviser trying to educate or persuade Biden to do something. Those conversations can’t happen. Instead, the advisers talk among themselves and then give Joe his script.

G-Pub; २७/२/२४, १०:२२ AM
Grandpa Publius म्हणाले...: Imagine being a Biden adviser trying to educate or persuade Biden to do something. Biden is clearly unable to engage in a long, intelligent conversation about anything. America is being governed by a small group of people who debate the issues among themselves and then they give Biden his script.

G-Pub; २७/२/२४, १०:२७ AM
tommyesq म्हणाले...: Why does the President of the United States have a Ukraine flag on his lapel pin next to the US flag? Ukraine is a vassal state, not an ally. I suspect the truth is because he personally owes Ukraine.

I suspect that Ukraine owns Biden, not vice-versa.; २७/२/२४, १०:३० AM
mezzrow म्हणाले...: "I watched about half of it. It's a set-up interview but he seems to be displaying the ability to think and speak that meets the low standard that has been created for him.

If we're watching Biden silently but efficiently eating his ice cream in a couple of months as a testament to Presidential fitness, my expectations will have been surpassed. In truth, respiration is all that is required at present.

I'm a bit gobsmacked they let themselves get into this fix, but I only have myself to blame for once more overestimating their competence. It must be more addictive being at the controls behind the scenes than we can begin to imagine. Plus, you can make a pretty good living just telling the folks on the inside that everything is going to be all right, if you get yourself into that very special position of leverage. Thoughts and prayers.; २७/२/२४, १०:३१ AM
chickelit म्हणाले...: I lasted about 10 seconds. Biden just talked about Trump.
My take is that Biden is getting re-elected soley to install the utterly unelectable Kamala Harris as POTUS. He plans to resign shortly after the inauguration. And most dem voters—especially women—are OK with that game plan.; २७/२/२४, १०:३७ AM
Joe Smith म्हणाले...: I can proudly say that I haven't watched a 'late night' show since that Ferguson guy left the air.

But going off the clips and who the guests are, it seems like 100% left-wing propaganda.; २७/२/२४, १०:३८ AM
Joe Smith म्हणाले...: 'Now we know that Seth Meyers is the biggest tool.'

I think Don Lemon said, 'about average.'; २७/२/२४, १०:३९ AM
Mike (MJB Wolf) म्हणाले...: Point of disagreement with Biden: "He [Trump] wants to take us back on Roe v Wade."

No. Democrats want to take us back to Roe. Roe is gone. Not coming back.

The video does present Biden appearing almost competent. It appears pre-taped, possibly edited well.

Circling back to his reference to SCOTUS, this president is the reason no one is talking about replacing Sotomayor, although she appears to be in ill health, enough so that she travels with a medic. They were all over RBG and Stevens. But after Joe picked another diversity hire last time, it seems no one on the left is pushing to get Sotomayor replaced before a (potential) second Trump term. Either they know the cheat is in or they are overlooking how sweet a 7-2 majority would be to the slightly right -of-center fans. At least we 3 to 4 real conservatives for now, depending on the context.; २७/२/२४, १०:३९ AM
Yancey Ward म्हणाले...: Howard,

The Biden Administration is doing their very best to get the Israelis to let up on Hamas, and I think you know it, but that cock down your throat is messing with your ability to tell the truth.; २७/२/२४, १०:४१ AM
wendybar म्हणाले...: “The only thing Seth's mouth is good for is being Robinette Biden’s cock holster”; २७/२/२४, १०:४३ AM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...: "Lots of legacy reporters are writing about Putin without mentioning that Putin endorsed Joe Biden for President 2024."

Richard Grenell on X.; २७/२/२४, १०:४५ AM
Breezy म्हणाले...: I watched about half. So many lies. So much rehearsed. He’s such a feeble old man who ….

anyway; २७/२/२४, १०:५४ AM
Will Cate म्हणाले...: Does Trump get equal time? That's 11:25 of free political advertising, for Joe Biden, from CBS Television. Otherwise how can that not be a federal election law violation?; २७/२/२४, ११:०३ AM
Will Cate म्हणाले...: (answering my own question) ... Apparently in this case the equal time rule would be applicable only applicable after the conventions; i.e. there is no Presidential Ballot yet. All of the notwithstanding, the prez can go on TV and say whatever he wants.; २७/२/२४, ११:११ AM
NCMoss म्हणाले...: The media and political push-back against joe's senility is an often used trick of giving 'enough' attention to countering views, no matter how absurd in order to create a false (temporary) reality. Imagine how easy it would be if he went through a clinical test, even the low bar of a cognitive assessment test to characterize or remove all doubt about his obvious decline.; २७/२/२४, ११:१६ AM
Bob Boyd म्हणाले...: I made it about halfway. The dishonesty and divisiveness from both men is depressing. I guess we're supposed to be impressed at how well Joe can still lie.

Why does Seth Meyers look so much bigger than Joe when the camera pulls back to show both?Meyers is not a big guy, 5'11', same as Biden according to the internet.

Except MSN who said, "Biden, the 46th President of the United States, stands at an impressive 6ft (182.88 cm), surpassing the average American man by approximately 3 inches. As a pivotal figure in American history, Biden joins a lineage of presidents whose heights have varied."

Made me wonder if Joe wrote that himself. Anyway, he looks tiny in that video.; २७/२/२४, ११:२३ AM
Rob म्हणाले...: So the strategy for convincing voters that Biden isn't old is to parade him out and have him look decrepit. Jeez.; २७/२/२४, ११:२४ AM
AlbertAnonymous म्हणाले...: Professor said:

“I watched about half of it. It's a set-up interview but he seems to be displaying the ability to think and speak that meets the low standard that has been created for him.”

I don’t think he showed much in the way of an ability to think and speak (spewing rote, memorized and oft repeated “lines” isn’t thinking and speaking). Then again, if the bar is set really low (as you mention) some people will think he cleared it. I think it’s scary how little the lefty media expects of him (and how quickly they jump on everything Trump). But that’s today’s lefty politics.

I sure hope he loses in a landslide. But at this point I’ll take any win over the margin for fraud.; २७/२/२४, ११:२४ AM

Mattman26 म्हणाले...: Stuck with it for four minutes or so, and he actually came across as fairly lucid (albeit a lying SOS).; २७/२/२४, ११:३० AM
Howard म्हणाले...: Only in your dreams Nancy er Yancy. Bidenberry May well lose the election because of his unwavering support for Israel and their pursuit of Hamas, even though this is very unpopular with the rest of the world and with at least half of the Democrat Party. Also this has been done at an extreme amount of civilian casualties which are very regrettable and may end up making a long-term solution impossible. That said the Biden administration is backing up the Israeli government to the hilt. According to Bibi Notmyyahoo, they need a few more weeks to finish mopping up the last Hamas stronghold. Joe mentioned getting the rest of the surrounding Sunni Nations involved in the peace process with the goal of recognizing Israel and establishing a Palestinian state.

Obviously you want all of this to fail because if it does turn into a complete nightmare worst case scenario it just makes your boy Trump look better. We all know that your loyalties are to Trump first at the expense of all of our allies innocent lives and our own country.

Traitors like you are cowards so you don't scare anybody.; २७/२/२४, ११:४० AM
Maynard म्हणाले...: Think about the audience for this show. It is primarily lefty twits like Howie, Richie, Chuckles and the rest of the usual suspects. Then think about why Biden is going on that show.

He still has to shore up his base.; २७/२/२४, ११:५८ AM
Butkus51 म्हणाले...: Its really hard to take Seth Meyers seriously.

Impossible; २७/२/२४, १२:०० PM
Butkus51 म्हणाले...: Howard has the memory of a gnat.; २७/२/२४, १२:०१ PM
Humperdink म्हणाले...: Howard said: "We all know that your loyalties are to Trump first at the expense of all of our allies innocent lives and our own country."

Innocent lives? Laken Riley, who Biden killed, was unavailable for comment, nor were the thousands of other overdose deaths directly attributable to Biden's open border. Our country is being wrecked and you're good with it. You are such a tool.; २७/२/२४, १२:०८ PM
kylos म्हणाले...: @tommyesq that's why I said owes not owns.; २७/२/२४, १२:१० PM
donald म्हणाले...: Biden goes NASCAR for his sponsors at Ukraine.; २७/२/२४, १२:१६ PM
Rabel म्हणाले...: Here's the beginning with the walk-out and hugging.

If you stick around to 3:40 you'll see the Dark Brandon joke that clearly was rehearsed in advance. As was the entire interview.

His ability to meet that low standard is just another bit of fakery.; २७/२/२४, १२:३० PM
mikee म्हणाले...: Howard: "an extreme amount of civilian casualties"

Hamas & their UN proxies have been the primary sources of casualty counts, and even if they fail to meet their historic 2x to 10x exaggerations of casualties claimed versus reality, the Israelis have "only" killed tens of thousands out of two million targets, after months and months and months of supposed genocide. Israelis are apparently totally incompetent at genocide. How can this be explained, and still blame the Zionist oppressors?; २७/२/२४, १:१५ PM
loudogblog म्हणाले...: Biden did better in this interview than he usually does, but his cognitive decline is on full display here, and the host just lets it all slide.

You have all these Democratic cheerleaders who keep telling us that Biden is 100% qualified to be the leader of the free world, but when push comes to shove, they wouldn't let him babysit their kids.; २७/२/२४, १:३८ PM
donald म्हणाले...: Biden goes NASCAR for his sponsors at Ukraine.; २७/२/२४, १:४७ PM
Humperdink म्हणाले...: The headline "In search of support ...".

If Biden has to go on Seth Meyers (and his audience) for support, you know he's in deep doo-doo.; २७/२/२४, १:५० PM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...: will Trump be on any of these shows?

No.; २७/२/२४, १:५२ PM
Bushman of the Kohlrabi म्हणाले...: A senile Joe Biden going toe to toe with Seth Meyers? Sounds like a real test for the ages. Did Joe call for unity by threatening to use the military or nuclear weapons against his political opponents again? I’ve seen how angry he gets on the rare occasion he’s asked a challenging question.

Sad thing is, unlike our propaganda media, our enemies don’t have to pretend Joe is capable of anything resembling competent leadership. They see the obvious and will continue to act accordingly. If Biden wins, expect US foreign policy debacles to continue as Joe continues his stumbling decline. What a disaster that would be for this country.; २७/२/२४, २:२६ PM
Mason G म्हणाले...: "All of the notwithstanding, the prez can go on TV and say whatever he wants."

As long as he isn't banned and prohibited from appearing on the station.; २७/२/२४, २:५८ PM
Drago म्हणाले...: Butkus51: "Howard has the memory of a gnat."

Not really.

Howitzer Howard is simply a Happy Liar for Team Groomer/Open Borders/Hamas/(insert 100 other lunatic items here).

The more obvious, counter-intuitive and "projecting" the lies are the "better".

Plus he spends a great deal of time over-compensating for...deficiencies lets say, in his personal background which clearly bother him greatly.

But make no mistake, like LLR-democratical Rich, Howard knows perfectly well he's pitching BS from top to bottom.; २७/२/२४, ३:५९ PM
Drago म्हणाले...: Over-compensating Non-combat "vet" Howitzer Howard: "I agree completely with Dave begley that Seth Meyers is a complete and total tool and shill for the Wokester end of the DNC."

LOL

Your over the top advocacy for BLM and antifa will never be forgotten there Woke Boy...nor can we forget how you lied about the open borders flood of illegals even as the media was televising the massive crowd images from helicopters and on and on and on.

And dont get me started on the weeping over whacked islamic supremacist Iranian generals and the tearing down of Founding Father statues!; २७/२/२४, ४:०७ PM
Michael Fitzgerald म्हणाले...: "it’s scary how little the lefty media expects of him"
Isn't it telling how little the Democrat Party media thinks of Democrat Party members. They trot out this corpse or that half-dead Democrat Party president or vice president or Supreme Court Justice and tell everyone that this individual is super smart, in excellent health, a vigorous, defender of Americans, and the Democrat Party members cheer.... zombies.; २७/२/२४, ४:३२ PM
Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves म्हणाले...: Seth and Biden - two white left vile creatures.; २७/२/२४, ४:५३ PM
Yancey Ward म्हणाले...: Poor little Howie- having the suck down all that cum from the Democrats and smile while saying, "Sir, may have some more?"

You are truly pathetic, Howard- you make Chuck look like a paragon of rectitude.; २७/२/२४, ५:४६ PM
Yancey Ward म्हणाले...: Howard, Biden himself just said, literally out loud, to expect a cease-fire this weekend. Now, that might well be Biden forgetting what his "position" actually is, but you make yourself look like a fool by parroting this "opposition to a cease-fire" which is nothing of the sort. At least, before you comment, it might be wise for you to actually find out what Biden is saying outside of a Althouse blogpost.; २७/२/२४, ५:४९ PM
Mutaman म्हणाले...: Ann Althouse said...

" I watched about half of it. It's a set-up interview but he seems to be displaying the ability to think and speak that meets the low standard that has been created for him."

If only Joe had met a higher standard like calling on Russia to invade France and getting the name of his wife wrong.; २७/२/२४, ६:०३ PM
Mutaman म्हणाले...: Humperdink said...

"If Biden has to go on Seth Meyers (and his audience) for support, you know he's in deep doo-doo. "

As opposed to Trump who goes on.... what's the name of that moron?..... oh ya, Laura Ingram.; २७/२/२४, ६:०५ PM
Mutaman म्हणाले...: Althouse and her fellow Know Nothings love to get upset over trivial nonsense.; २७/२/२४, ६:१६ PM
Howard म्हणाले...: Lots of butthurt Trumpers today; २७/२/२४, ६:३९ PM
gilbar म्हणाले...: so... the adderall got him through LESS THAN 12 minutes?
OR... the editing made it SEEM like it??
this State of the Union should be interesting; २७/२/२४, ६:४६ PM
Humperdink म्हणाले...: Mutaman mocked Trump for going on Laura Ingram. Earth to Mutaman .... Trump goes on every news show possible. A bit different from Slo' Joe, who is rarely seen.; २७/२/२४, ८:१७ PM
Drago म्हणाले...: Howitzer Howard: "Lots of butthurt Trumpers today"

There you go tiger!

Keep your moronic mutterings to that length and you'll get yourself in a lot less trouble.; २७/२/२४, ८:२२ PM

"but when push comes to shove, they wouldn't let him babysit their kids. "

You'd let Trump babysit your kids? Can you imagine what was going on when he babysat Ivanka?

"Aides said he talked about Ivanka Trump’s breasts, her backside, and what it might be like to have sex with her, remarks that once led John Kelly to remind the president that Ivanka was his daughter,”

Steve म्हणाले...: I don't think that this convinced anyone skeptical of his ability to do the job that he is "on top of things". The answers and the talking points sound rehearsed, and critics will claim that he is reading cue cards based on where his eyes are looking when the camera is on him. He needs to prove that he can handle an ad-hoc question session to win over the skeptics.; २८/२/२४, ८:०१ AM
Iman म्हणाले...: Back to the kennel, mutt*man.; २८/२/२४, ८:०९ AM
Drago म्हणाले...: Mutaman leans on Newsweek (Newsweek!) and more "anonymous" tips to advance another hoax!

Why not just use Vice?....oh, that's right....
