The issue of Biden’s health at the end of his presidency "will raise real questions” for Democrats looking to run in 2028, Jack Blanchard says on #playbookpod. While for Republicans, it will be a “powerful charge” to throw at opponents: pod.link/1169056746/e...
Eat my shit and hair you vainglorious hacks.
Seriously. WTF. We have a dude shredding the Constitution. Daily. So stop making it a story. With whatever was the "decline," the country functioned. With freedoms and liberties intact.
Of course. Talk about the former President. Meanwhile, the actual believes he created the word "equalizing", is a nazi sympathizer, sold the USA to Qatar for US$400 million, wants to be a new Putin....
It will only be a problem if the Dems nominate another 70+ year old.
Unfollow.
No it won't Go fuck yourself
JFC, by the time we get to 2028 voters are going to be so angry about the GOP-enabled destruction of America that NO ONE will be talking about Joe Biden.
WFT politico? The Orange sh!t is lying with every breath as he wipes out democracy. And this is what you want to talk about? This is why he is able to do the shit he does.
Jesus. You guys are lost. Simply lost.
Ooof. That ratio.
The issue of Trump’s mental health during the whole of his Presidency “will raise real questions” for Republicans looking to run in 2028. That’s how dumb you sound, Jack.
Preach it! 👍
On behalf of the city of St. Louis, where we have not received any federal support days after a deadly storm because Trump gutted FEMA: thank you for your laser-like focus on Biden’s health problems!
Horse manure. Look at the fat senile jackass you all installed
The time is ripe for a @principlesfirst.bsky.social party and candidate.
Gfy
If that’s all the Republicans have to use against a Democrat in 2028, I say good luck! We’ll be watching Trump for 4 years or only 2 if the Democrats win the House & Senate in 2026. The Democrats might have tried to hide Biden’s health issues but Trumps & JD Vance’ are in plain sight everyday.
bsky.app/profile/did:...
Oh FFS STOP IT! You are not helping! A lot can happen in 4 yrs but you all endlessly talking about everything BUT the criminal in the White House is disgusting.
FFS What about the current traitorous convict in office? Do you have anything to say about him⁉️😡
Do you even know what news is you simpering shitwits or are you too busy licking feces right out of Republicans’ assholes to care
Politico failing its readers, again and again and again.
No it wont.
yeah if you keep trying to make it that way you oblivious assholes
Vomit
Trump, at the dawn of his second term: Question raised: is he fucking insane?
Who cares?
With Politico helping fan those flames, the Republicans won’t have a problem making it an issue. Unreal
Ignoring problems doesn’t make them go away. The Democrats have had real problems for a very long time and haven’t represented the working class for decades.
Who is that ignoring a problem? The RW media has you fooled about who has represented the working class. You want to support Politico creating problems to “report” on them then enjoy. I will be watching the MAGA elite being unplugged from reality. Unreal
Just so we can go back in four years to another Centris democrat who is really just a Republican with 2.5 gay friends. Get over yourself.
“Centris democrat who is really just a Republican”???? You okay? RW media has gotten their hooks into yourself. You just stay yourself and get ready for another “protest” vote that got Trump into office. MAGA appreciates your lack of understanding.
Keep believing that voting for the D will change the world. It’s all the same money supporting both parties. Keep watching CNN I love how you idiots instantly jump to think just because someone says the Democrats are horrible that they voted for Trump.
I will keep voting for a Democrat because they do change the world and not weaken the USA to grift their citizens or remove workers at FAA or FDA or HHS or Weather. Don’t watch CNN. I never said YOU voted for Trump. Reading comprehension is like watching RW media, know what is BS and what is spin.
Only morons pretend the D and R are the same. D suck ass but if you pretend they're anywhere near on the same level then you're just complicit with the R or so privileged that nothing they do affect you so you can freely grandstand online
We get it. You made a protest vote over Israel and Gaza and you were wrong.
This is deranged and utterly baffling. There is simply no reality in which Biden's health is an issue in 2028. If you had the slightest bit of self awareness, you'd resign in disgrace. But we know you don't, so...
What an insane take
Why don’t you try reporting on the real issues currently in our country. Like the wannabe king who is ripping the constitution to shreads
No, it won’t. It won’t do either of those things. No democrats give a shit about any of this. How ridiculous. In the book excerpts that I’ve read, you could replace “Biden” w/ “Trump” & the story would remain the same. So how about we focus on the issue CURRENTLY in the WH, mmmkay?
Let’s just shut up about Biden and move on, please
No, ICYMI, Dems lost! FFS we can’t change that, but how about instead of you litigating the past, we live in the present and you discuss the monstrosity of the 78 yo gaslighting, rambling incoherent (dementia ? riddled) madman and his lawless lying henchmen destroying the country. Do better!
You people are ghouls.
This is complete bullshit. It’s members of the media trying to make fetch happen and manufacture a narrative.
Anyone that thinks that this will be a big issue in 2028 is delusional. It’s barely an issue now.
Oh organizations like Politico and the legacy MSM will keep it an issue.
Oh come ON
No it will not. The end.
Trump directly shits on your business and costs you money and yet you frame every argument exactly how they want it. Your organization is full of pathetic lickspittles. How embarrassing for your families
What about the Republicans? Look who’s in there now, a dinosaur that can’t breathe.
🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
No it shouldn’t. There is a crazy man in office now ruining our economy and trying to break apart our democracy. Look forward not backwards!
Oh for fuck’s sake
More powerful than ridding our country of the mad king's party?
No it won't, idiot!
Jesus, you fucking people.
"Person, woman, man, camera, TV" is not a credential.
Yall are so fucking dumb. And yall are failing more each day. History won’t look fondly upon you. And how you failed.
It should throw concern on Trump, too. Do you really think they tell the American people the truth about his medical exam....
You fucks keep covering bullshit and IGNORING THE TRUMP/PROJECT2025 AUTOCRATIC TAKEOVER. Biden performed the job. Y'all are acting like this kind of shit is unheard of. We all saw Feinstein turn to a puddle. Fetterman is rumored to be crashing. This is normal DC activity. Release your pearls and fo.
What is wrong with you?
At least they can counter with the head of DHS told a senator that habeas corpus means the president can do whatever he wants today 🤡
Geez, how about focusing on the devastation being caused by the current administration.
Yeah. I don't buy that this story has enough juice to last until 2028
This is precisely the point about why liberals are losing the narrative battle. Hillary's emails news was covered for a full year. We are still keeping the news of Harris sleeping and drinking to be on top. The sleepy Joe is since 2020. Unless you control the information you are losing the battle
Covid restrictions actually impacted the lives of nearly every voter and didn’t matter in 2024. Media hacks are wishcasting so hard on this lazy palace intrigue shit.
Right? Americans keep a news story cycle for about a day and a half.
Don't be surprised at how gaslighting, lying fascists can keep a fake story alive for years...fuck Politico
Disgusting and vile fascist collaborators
Looks around . . . you think BIDEN’s health is the concern right now?
I hear when President Von Hindenburg signed the Enabling Act of 1933 which gave the Nazi regime emergency powers all the talk among non-Nazi German politicians was how the President was too old to be in office.
Utterly insane shit. Who the fuck is running the country rn
Fuck these people. Republicans will have to own Trump and defend their treason.
Give me a break. There is so much that does “raise real questions” about Trump. Stop repeating the GOP talking points and please highlight the atrocities happening in this country right now!
There’s a a word in German for what I’m feeling for y’all. Fremdschämen. Look it up… and then do better.
Now do the guy ACTUALLY in charge instead of a guy NOT IN CHARGE. Never mind the open corruption, the illegality of every action, never mind the human trafficking. It’s Biden. Sure yup got it.
Fuck off with this shit. You guys love trump which is why you are talking about Biden’s age, instead of trump’s dementia plus the myriad of evil shit trump’s government is doing
Is this how you want to be remembered by history as an institution? Piddling around about this useless bullshit?
Go play in a house fire with this shit. You can’t convince you actually believe this drivel.
No it won't
Politico is a rag.
Who the fuck is Jack Blanchard?
Hard to take "journalists" on a book alleging Biden, an elderly lifelong stutterer, was declining mentally while being a successful POTUS, who sane washed Trump and continue to frame him as a normal politician and not the 3:00 a.m. sh*t-posting court adjudicated rapist/felon/fraud/dictator he is.
Why should it matter, President Biden is no longer President. Where is your daily reporting on the issue the current president has with his cognitive decline. It's obvious in every single news gathering he's in.
This rag should be ashamed (but I'm sure they aren't) that they are assisting trump in his destruction of our government by attempting to redirect focus back to Biden. OUR COUNTRY IS BEING LED BY A DEMENTED RACIST RAPIST CROOK INTO FASCISM. WE WANT HIM OUT. WE WANT DEMOCRACY. FOCUS, POLITICO!
This is just the dumbest. I cannot believe you get paid for this absurd drivel.
I swear I am just going to block you if you continue to put out this crap.
Counterpoint: throwing people in foreign gulags while suspending habeas, and getting $300m presents from foreign governments while nuking the economy with tariffs and exploding the public debt might also have an impact.
Post-concussion-level analysis.
this is so ridiculous. Biden isn't the first president who was sick during his term. "Examples include Franklin D. Roosevelt, who died in office from a stroke, Chester A. Arthur, who battled Bright's Disease, and Woodrow Wilson, who suffered multiple strokes. it's the Rs who are the sick ones.
Oh, for F’s sake! Why the Hell are so many people in the media so effing hung up on Biden? Biden is NO LONGER IN OFFICE! You behave as though no other president’s staff have ever covered up any personal weaknesses for their bosses? Look at what we have right Now! Whaddaya think THEY are hiding?
Grow the hell up. This is the biggest non-issue ever.
My god
Thinking that Biden’s health will be an issue years from now is absurd.
Absolutely nobody is going to give a shit about this by 2028. For people who analyze politics for a living how do you suck so bad at it?
Seriously? F off @politico.com! The insanity in the Oval right now needs coverage. Crime. Grift. Destroying health care. Disappearing people.
All, and I mean all, I care about is how much influence corporate donors/sponsors will have over the next major candidate. The candidate who isn’t beholden to plutocrats is the one who is likely to work for the people.
Why stop at 2028? “As Trump runs for a fourth term in 2032, democrats not only need to reckon with Joe Biden’s health, but also the disastrous consequences of running FDR in 1944”
Just because you say nonsense calmly in a British accent, doesn’t make it any less of nonsense.
The “issue of Biden’s health…” will only be a problem in future elections if the Press makes it so. For the last 10 years all corporate media does is repeat ad nauseum the GOP false talking points. Trump’s presidency and disgusting treatment of the US and the World is on them.
Please shut the fuck up
Media signals intent to maintain ludicrous double standards in favor of Trumpism.
Unfollowing Politico garbage. When media has mental stipulations for just one party and the other gets a pass
It isn't Biden's health and mental competence the media should be discussing. It's trump's. Why focus on 2028 when the focus should be on the current president? Trump's signs of increasing dementia are blatantly obvious. Why is the media ignoring his inability to recall things he just said?
Meanwhile.... bsky.app/profile/carl...
If Biden’s health is still being talked about in 2028, I’m going to see defenestrate. When Joe Biden inevitably dies, I can imagine you hacks in DC will find a way to go, “Biden died - how this will impact the 2028 election.” God damn, the beltway pundits are beating this dead horse.
The issue of Trump's health at the end of his presidency "will raise real question" for Republicans looking to run in 2028, GayGuy says at #playbookpod a d #politico While for Democrats, it will be a "powerful charge" to throw out opponents because Biden will have been out of office for 4 years
Just FYI, Republicans don't actually care about it, and anything they have to say can be dismissed out of hand as the bad-faith horseshit it is.
I'm confused is Biden the president right now during this constitutional crisis?
🤡
Well that's stupid. How or why would that be a thing?
Amazing you took trumps 🍄 out of your mouth long enough to record this. Fucking pathetic.
So disgusted listening to the pundits talk about the perceived failures of the Democrats, as the Republicans destroy everything in their path. Just another deflection from the ongoing obliteration of our country.
Quit trying to redirect from the plane and other crimes Trump has committed. Being ill and not disclosing it is not illegal.
I wonder if the people at Politico know that Biden isn’t president, is not a Democratic candidate, and almost certainly will not be the 2028 Democratic candidate?
Are you kidding?
Find me one normal voter who cares
He can’t have been hiding the cancer diagnosis for that long. There are much bigger issues to be concerned about.
List of people I've met in REAL LIFE who are focused on Politico's obsession with Biden: ...
Y’all are so lost. Please do better.
www.wsws.org/en/articles/...
🖕
You fucking worthless fascist trash
"will raise real questions” No it won't actually. No one cares now and will care even less in 2028. You guys are just fucking morons attempting to drum up clicks like you're actually not a transparent propaganda outlet. Get fucked.
Nope, wrong. This reminds us of Reagan’s dementia, so obviously it will hurt Republicans. And it goes without saying, that Hegseth will recall notions of Ulysses S. Grant’s rampant alcoholism, a definite negative for Repubs.
The trust deficit in this country has been fueled by right wing conspiracies not Joe Biden’s health. Who is going to have “trust “ in a leader who flat out lies everyday of his presidency? And I’m not talking about Biden. The media hasn’t figured out how to stand up to Trump’s lies.
The current president just pressed charges against a member of Congress for assault after having his goons assault her on the job but whatever
You guys will do anything to try to change the subject away from the incredible failures of the Trump administration.
You've got a fascist takeover of the US gobt, led by a racist with dementia, but you obsess about a former president,falling hook, line & sinker for the GOP distraction campaign. Sure,go right ahead. You're owned by Axel Springer, right? Or rather: far right...
Trump is deporting innocent people into slavery while dismantlement democracy and bringing about more and more fascism while crashing the economy. That's the cancerous president you should be reporting.
My question is: Can we have sleepy Joe back? He was a lot better than what we have now.
What "real" questions? He won't be the sitting president screwing the country over and over. But the one that is president is doing an awful lot of bad things for America. THAT will be the subject the Democratic Party will hammer at them in 26. Biden did a great job, trump is undoing it all.
This is the dumbest thing I have read all day. Good job, Politico. You are part of the huge problem we are living with every day.
My God concentrate owned trying to win the White House back. Biden's health has nothing to do with 2028. Democrats' problem is you're messaging is terrible how about working on getting back in the game and win this DAMN thing stop FUCKING around.
Let's see. Which party has a geriatric president in the White House currently? One who is whisked away for medical treatments without warning or observation of protocols for succession and suspension of powers? You utter clowns.
One who stood on a rally stage, mentally checked-out for forty minutes and everyone gave a pass to? You guys are clowns. You should feel bad about this.
You mean you can ask questions? Huh. Seems asking questions brings answers and then you move on. How embarrassing for you that this is the state of discourse while criminals ransack the government. Millions are dying and youre playing a game.
Oh look, another irrelevant piece from Politico—about as connected to our nation's actual challenges as a butterfly on a milkweed. But, of course, it aligns perfectly with their latest mission: tiptoeing around anything that might bruise Trump’s delicate sensibilities.
I dare you to write about Trump’s declining mental health you cowards.
Reporters at Politico should be ashamed of going along with this agenda-setting nonsense being imposed from the top. You should all feel shame for this.
Give it a rest,my god give it a fkn rest!
@politico.com: “We will hammer Dems during the midterms for protecting a man who is no longer in office.” “MAGA guts social security, Medicaid & Medicare, kidnaps Americans & renditions them to foreign countries, defend Trump’s Qatari bribe, & allow Musk to run amok.” “We endorse MAGA candidates.”
The Republicans have a corrupt, demented dotard leading their authoritarian kleptocracy, that bigger news than a book that cherry-picks information to claim Biden was infirm. Biden gave us a strong economy, dotard and the GOP tanked it
You are on crack. No one. I repeat no one will give a shit about Biden if we still have elections in 2028. Stop trying to make this a story.
How can you say this shit with a straight face? He's not president now. He won't be again. You can't be a serious organization if you're normalizing that a retired old man is more important than the illegal, unconstitutional, fascist, unilateral destruction of our federal institutions. Fuck off.
BREAKING: Biden isn't the president.
Unbelievable. Just…. Wtf
#FuckYou 🖕🏿🖕🏾🖕🏽🖕🏼🖕🏻🖕 For trying to ruin a GOOD man. When you have an EVIL fuck in control now. You #WhiteWash what the #OrangeAss is doing & look the other way. #FuckYou 🖕🏿🖕🏾🖕🏽🖕🏼🖕🏻🖕 I’m done.
2028 might as well be forever given the political memory of most American voters. Blanchard is a moron if he thinks this will be a campaign issue in 3.5 years. In fact, Dems can point to Trump eliminating a lot of infrastructure jobs in R areas in addition to whatever bad economic picture we’re in.
Don't be so sure....these assholes have ignored all the lies from trump, all the crimes, and all the times he's wiped his ass with the Constitution for years now. Politico is trash
Oh yeah worrying about *look at notes* a former president diagnosis should TOTALLY be the main focus right now .... Not the dude wiping his butt with your Constitution
No it won't. Don't give in to fascists.
Fuck you all. Cunts.
Do news rooms script the season before going to production like a TV show? Like was this all written 8 months ago and they're just like "oh well" and then Ron burgundy it?
Damn, y’all are some very stupid and ridiculous people. The current POTUS is showing signs of living in a dementia clouded world and all you’re reporting about now is a person who is no longer running for office.
And dont forget the super important story about Hillary's emails.
Who is Jack Blanchard?
But allowing Trump to repeatedly violate thr Constitution is no biggie for GOP…. Ok. Great analysis 🙄
It will be a “powerful charge” to throw at Republicans who are actively hiding Trump’s mental and physical deterioration.
This! And worse, actively allowing him to shred our government and to pervert our laws and to enrich himself. Whatever Biden’s issues, we had none of that going on. Will Republicans be held accountable? This is THE pertinent question. Right now, next year, and up through the next election.
Oh, for fuck's sake. Give it a rest. The way you are constantly hurt on this man's health and well-being while you remain silent about the fact that Trump's doctor has delivered a medical report stating that Trump's taller than he actually is,
*you consistently harp on
weighs less than he does, and that he, as in overweight, largely sedentary man, who lives off of burgers and fries (a real life, real time Supersize Me) speaks incoherently, and is a pathological liar is imperfect physical and mental condition.
By the way, since it apparently is lost on you, Biden is not president. Trump is. I know you make your money off of shitting on Democrats. But do try to focus.
GMAFB. The current President displays lapses every single minute of every single day.
Biden’s health is not relevant now and will not be relevant at any point in the future.
Hmmm and yet the fact that the Trump administration lied about the severity of Trump suffering from Covid never raised an eyebrow. As Jake Tapper profits from his book I question where was his pen when the Trump administration engaged in a major Covid cover-up. Tapper needs an ego check.
How about dems having a ‘powerful charge’ that the *current* administration is covering up dementia.. he thinks Sean Duffy is a lumberjack ffs 🙄
This is nonsense, if democrats allow it to be a talking point then shame on them. Neither Trump nor Biden will be in the next campaign (IF we make it that far). The democratic contenders can release THEIR OWN medical reports and reply to any question about Biden’s health with “you have my records.”
Idiots. You’re all blind, navel-gazing idiots who are like dogs distracted by a squirrel.
😆🤪 What a joke. Who is really pushing this lame story? Hannity, Tucker Carlson, Miller or Bannon?
what??? such a ridiculous statement
as far as i can see Its DEMOCRACY V AUTHORITARIANISM. Everything Else Is Semantics.
Person, Woman, Man, Camera, TV
The horse race is over, and Politico just can’t handle it.
Fuck off with this crap and report Trump’s crimes
