MSNBC host Joy Reid said Democrats are “approaching panic” over President Joe Biden’s “extremely weak” performance during the 2024 debate against former President Donald Trump.
Biden spoke with a raspy voice and trailed off from the questions during the debate, leaving members of his party and the liberal media in a panic.
“The universal reaction was somewhere approaching panic,” Reid said. “The people who were texting with me were very concerned about President Biden seeming extremely feeble, seeming extremely weak, and you know I’ll just reiterate what I said earlier. President Biden had one job tonight, and one primary job, and yes, it was to litigate President Trump’s criminality and all of those things, but he had to settle his own party. He needed to settle Democrats. Democrats, you know, they always talk about how Democrats are bedwetters and Democrats are always panicking.”
“Yes, Democrats are always panicking, they’re always scared, they’re always thinking they’re gonna lose,” she continued. “Democrats are very pessimistic, this is just who they are,” she added. “They’re neurotic. But, Joe Biden’s job was to reassure them tonight. His job was to calm his party to make them feel that yes, I can do this, I have four more years in me, I have the ability and the stamina and the strength to do four more years. He did not do that. He did the opposite of that.”
