Joe Biden was delusional to believe he could have beaten Donald Trump, ignoring a mountain of evidence to the contrary.

Biden's aides and the broader Democratic establishment enabled his delusion, acting as 'yes men' because their power was tied to him, creating a bubble of unreality.
-
"once they surround themselves with yes men and in this case you know this this piece is not just about what Biden believed it's what Biden and his AIDS believe I mean it's it's hard to imagine that people who don't have cognitive decline like Biden would delude themselves into thinking that he had a shot in beating Donald Trump in the election but his AIDS allegedly are are saying yeah he could have totally beat Trump like he shouldn't have dropped out of the race."

"remember they have a giant incentive for Biden to stay in office because their power is attached 100% to Joe Biden even when it's another Democrat running they lose all of their power but I think that they genuinely do believe it because the bubbles are so thick."

The central reason for Democratic failure was ignoring and hiding Joe Biden's obvious cognitive decline, which made him an unfit candidate that the public would not re-elect.
-
"or it could be that he was obviously deteriorating right before our eyes and the American people did not feel comfortable re-electing him to serve a second term I think I think that was the heart of the matter."
6:31 Watch ↗ -
"that would be to me uh Joe Biden's obvious cognizant decline that became undeniable uh in the televised debate at the presidential debate with Donald Trump unquestioned and you know it's starting to emerge now that his advisers uh kind of managed his limitations it's been reported in the Wall Street Journal for four years uh and yet he insisted that he could still run for President we should have much more forcefully uh questioned whether he was fit for office for another four years."

Biden was hypocritical for exhibiting the same authoritarian tendencies he criticized in Trump, such as wanting to meddle with the Justice Department to prosecute a political opponent.
-
"in private Biden has said he should have picked someone other than Merrick Garland as attorney general complaining about the Justice Department's slowness under Garland in Prosecuting Trump and its aggressiveness in Prosecuting Biden's son Hunter according to people familiar with his comments."

"look he's saying I wish I had meddled with my attorney general and made him investigate my political opponent earlier and I wish I would have meddled with him and made sure he never investigated me or my family or anyone attached to me that's exactly what we said was wrong with Donald Trump 4 for four exact same things Biden and Trump."

Democrats failed on the economy by not addressing core issues like inflation, high interest rates, and the housing crisis, making claims of economic success unbelievable to voters.

Biden's political style and governing approach were outdated and 'frozen in the 1970s,' making him unable to connect with the modern electorate or understand the current political environment.
-
"President Biden and his supporters often yearn for a world that disappeared you can't actually govern the way you did in the 1970s in 2021 now why does that person say that because all of the reporting is that Joe Biden wanted to run the place like it was the 1970s and he thought well no I'm going to bring people back to the way it should be and show that Trump was just a fad."

The Biden campaign had an incompetent media strategy, failing to proactively make its own case to the public and instead hiding the president and expecting the media to do their work for them.
-
"if you had a president who wasn't in mental decline that you were trying to hide because you're all corrupt and you're all intensely selfish and don't care about the American people or American democracy at all what you would have done is had a strong president come out and go look at these inflation numbers I know they're problematic and I'm on it and we're going to work on price …"
