The Morning Report — 6//28/24

Good Morning Kids. Last night's debate, if you could call it that, was an abject isaster for Biden and the Dems. He looked like a reanimated corpse, and between the coughing fits and mumbling, declared that women can be raped by their sisters and that "we beat Medicare" among other incoherent ravings. Trump reacted by declaring and stating the obvious that he couldn't understand what Joe was saying but then again, neither could Joe! Despite Tapper and Bash's best efforts to save Joe from himself and sabotage Trump. they failed. At the end of it all, there was Jill leading the burned out husk off stage and then whisking him off to a Waffle House. Yikes.

The Democrats are in full freak out mode. But there's not much they can do to make him exit if he, or Jill refuse. Of course this presupposes that they are not going to be able to engineer a cheat even more massive than 2020 to drag his rotting corpse over the finish line without making it so obvious that the whole world would see it, as if that would even matter.

As for Trump, he acquitted himself well, mostly by keeping his cool, smiling and then pouncing especially when Biden made the mistake of calling him a convicted felon, to which Trump responded by pinning that label on Hunter. Heck, even Ace was impressed with how Trump did and that says a lot. Not to toot our own horns but our threads were terrific and fun.

I doubt that there will be any more debates before the election, based on this shit-show for the Dems.

It’s a good thing for Joe Biden that the debate wasn’t held in Harlem’s famed Apollo Theater. The audience would have given him the hook and hooted him off the stage.
That’s how bad he was. 
Our president is not fit to serve. Forget concerns about how old and infirm he would be after a second term. 
He’s a basket case now. 

Biden took the debate stage looking like he just escaped from a wax museum and spent much of his speaking time chewing his words before trailing off. Several times he confused millions with billions and ended one incoherent sentence by saying “we finally beat Medicare.”
The leader of the free world doesn’t look well enough to have a driver’s license or dress ­himself. 
Confused old man
For his part, Trump was solid and hit all the main areas where Biden has failed: inflation, the border and the economy. 
In a bid to broaden his appeal, he talked about helping black and Latino citizens and several times focused on how the millions of illegal migrants pose economic threats to the poorest Americans. 
The former president seemed well prepared and, I believe, minimized the danger the abortion issue presents by stressing that each state gets to decide and that whatever limits are imposed, there must be exceptions for the health of the mother. 

Several times Trump looked like he was getting hot over Biden’s insults, but managed to steady himself without saying anything that would scare ­voters. 
That was his main objective and he achieved it despite Biden’s clear goal of trying to get under his skin. 
But ordinary score-keeping does an injustice to what Americans witnessed. In an unprecedented event, a sitting president of the United States looked like a confused old man knocking on death’s door. 
I say that not out of cruelty or with joy. It is simply a matter of fact that the condition of our [spurious] president should alarm all of us. 

Biden’s undeniable decline must also be scaring our allies, who already worry that America is a diminished superpower on a turbulent global stage. 
Whatever concerns they had before last night were certainly magnified by the appearance of a frail, shrunken president.
Indeed, 10 minutes into the debate, an ardent Democrat texted me that the election was over and fumed that Dems should have stopped Biden from running. 

The only question now is how Democrats are going to find a way to usher him off the stage and give the nomination to someone else. That’s their problem. 
The problem for the rest of us is that Biden will likely remain as president until January. Now that every despot in the world has seen how serious his condition is, what happens between now and then? 

Have a good weekend.

  Debate Reactions

• The debate was widely seen as a make-or-break moment for Biden amid voter concern about his mental fitness — concerns that grew more acute Thursday night. “Abysmal,” one Democratic source told The Post. “If I knew nothing about Donald Trump before that debate and judged him solely on that performance, I’d vote for him.”

Biden paused for several moments before saying, “look, we finally beat Medicare,” before Tapper cut him off and moved on.

• Trump, who is known for usually being hyper and combative, appeared to benefit significantly from CNN’s debate format in which there was no audience for him to feed off of and microphones were turned off, which stopped him from interrupting Biden. Biden was forced to stumble around his own mind in a quiet, empty room as he searched for answers. Trump largely was able to stand there and smile and Biden wilted numerous times under pressure.Former Left-wing CNN blogger Chris Cillizza posted: “Look. This debate was a total and complete disaster for Biden. He looked old. His answers trailed off repeatedly. He was hard to understand. He would stop in mid sentence and move on to something else. I NEVER thought he would be this bad. Stunning. Truly.”

  DOMESTIC AFFAIRS, THE COURTS, WASTE/FRAUD/ABUSE

• The Supreme Court held Thursday that when the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is seeking civil penalties against a defendant, the agency’s use of in-house judges violates the right to a jury trial guaranteed in the Constitution. When Congress passed the Dodd-Frank Act in 2010, it gave the agency the option to adjudicate enforcement actions in-house using its own administrative law judges (ALJ), rather than in the federal courts. George R. Jarkesy, who became tied up in the SEC’s in-house proceedings after he was charged in 2013 with fraud relating to his investment activities, challenged this practice.
