In a move that surprises absolutely no one, the Biden campaign is now claiming that the former Vice President's abysmal debate performance was due to a conveniently timed "cold." This excuse, which miraculously surfaced only after it became painfully clear that Biden was floundering against President Trump, reeks of desperation and damage control.
Throughout the debate, Biden stumbled over his words, lost his train of thought, and appeared overwhelmed by Trump's energetic defense of his record. The stark contrast between Trump's commanding presence and Biden's confused mumbling was impossible to ignore. Yet, somehow, this alleged "cold" only became public knowledge after the debate concluded and the liberal media's spin machine kicked into high gear.
Let's be clear: if Biden was truly under the weather, why didn't his campaign mention it before the debate? It seems awfully convenient that this excuse only materialized once the reviews started pouring in, universally panning Biden's performance.
This isn't the first time the Democrats have used health as a shield to deflect criticism. Remember Hillary Clinton's "pneumonia" in 2016? It's becoming a predictable play in the Democrat playbook: when their candidate fails to deliver, blame it on a sudden, previously unmentioned illness.
The American people aren't fooled by these transparent tactics. If Joe Biden can't handle a debate while nursing a common cold, how can he be expected to lead our nation through real crises? The presidency isn't a part-time job that you can call in sick to when things get tough.
President Trump, on the other hand, has consistently demonstrated the stamina and mental acuity required for the job. He's been working tirelessly for the American people, even through a global pandemic, while Biden hides in his basement.
This "cold" excuse is just another example of the Biden campaign's inability to face reality. Instead of owning up to Joe's shortcomings, they're grasping at straws, hoping the American people will fall for their flimsy excuses.
But voters are smarter than that. They saw the real Joe Biden on that debate stage – confused, slow, and clearly out of his depth. No amount of post-debate spin can change what millions of Americans witnessed with their own eyes.
As we approach November, it's becoming increasingly clear that the Democrats have saddled themselves with a candidate who simply isn't up to the task. And no number of convenient colds can hide that fact from the American people.
