The Radical Left had a chance to replace Biden. But instead, they seem to just be covering for him.
But a Biden interviewer has revealed the truth that Democrats are trying to hide.
In a moment that has captured significant attention, George Stephanopoulos, ABC News’ chief anchor, was recently approached by TMZ on the bustling streets of New York City.
When asked his candid opinion about President Joe Biden’s ability to serve another term, Stephanopoulos, engrossed in his phone, made a surprising remark. “I don’t think he can serve four more years,” he said, sparking a whirlwind of speculation and debate.

TMZ, known for its penchant for sensationalism, quickly ran the footage, igniting a firestorm. Stephanopoulos, realizing the potential implications of his candid street-side commentary, swiftly reached out to TMZ to retract his statement.
“Earlier today,” he stated, “I responded to a question from a passerby. I shouldn’t have.” ABC News was quick to distance itself from the comment, issuing a statement that “George expressed his own point of view and not the position of ABC News.”

The timing of this incident couldn’t have been worse for the Biden administration. Just days earlier, Biden had sat down with Stephanopoulos for an interview in Wisconsin, a critical effort to quell mounting concerns about his fitness for office following a dismal debate performance against Donald Trump in Atlanta on June 27.
During the debate, Biden appeared his age, often freezing mid-sentence, looking confused, and struggling to articulate his thoughts coherently. At times, his sudden outbursts of anger only added to the growing unease about his capability to lead.
The White House was quick to attribute Biden’s debate debacle to a “bad night,” emphasizing that he was otherwise in good health.
In his interview with Stephanopoulos, which aired the following Friday night, Biden attempted to downplay the incident, describing it as “a bad episode” and attributing it to an illness he had been battling in the days leading up to the debate.
Notably, Biden declined to undergo an independent medical examination, further fueling skepticism about his health.
Stephanopoulos pressed Biden on his declining approval ratings, which have continued to plummet since the debate. Biden’s response was characteristically defiant. “I don’t believe that’s my approval, that’s not what our polls show,” he asserted, dismissing the concerning data.
The interview took a poignant turn when Stephanopoulos asked Biden what he would do if he lost to Trump in the upcoming general election, an election that has seen increasing calls from within his own party for him to step aside. Biden’s response was a mixture of defiance and idealism.
“I’ll feel as long as I gave it my all and I did the goodest job I know I can do, that’s what this is about. Look George, think of it this way. You’ve heard me say this before, I think the United States and the world is at an inflection point,” he said, echoing a familiar theme of his presidency.
The political fallout from Stephanopoulos’s candid remark has been swift and fierce. On The Daily Show, Jon Stewart didn’t mince words. “That’s not what this is about! There are no participation trophies in endgame democracy,” he exclaimed, reflecting the frustration and urgency felt by many.
From a conservative perspective, Stephanopoulos’s candid admission aligns with the growing chorus of voices questioning Biden’s ability to continue leading the nation. The president’s age and apparent cognitive decline have been a topic of concern not just among conservatives but across the political spectrum.
The debate debacle only served to highlight these fears, showcasing a president who struggled to keep pace, articulate his vision, and respond coherently to the pressing issues of the day.
Biden’s refusal to undergo an independent medical examination is particularly troubling. In an era where transparency and accountability are paramount, the president’s decision to withhold a clear assessment of his health raises red flags. The American people deserve to know that their leader is fit to serve, especially as the nation faces unprecedented challenges both domestically and globally.
Moreover, Biden’s dismissal of his declining approval ratings suggests a disconnect from the concerns of the electorate. Polls are a reflection of public sentiment, and ignoring them does not bode well for a president seeking re-election.
The data doesn’t lie: Americans are increasingly skeptical of Biden’s ability to lead effectively, and his refusal to acknowledge this reality only deepens the divide.
The political landscape is at a critical juncture, with the 2024 election shaping up to be one of the most consequential in recent history. Biden’s continued insistence on running despite mounting evidence of his decline is a gamble that could have far-reaching implications. The Democratic Party faces a crucial decision: stick with an incumbent who appears increasingly unfit for office or pivot to a new candidate who can energize the base and present a viable alternative to Donald Trump.
In conclusion, George Stephanopoulos’s candid street-side remark has opened a Pandora’s box of questions about Joe Biden’s viability as president. From a conservative viewpoint, it underscores the urgent need for clarity and accountability in leadership.
The American people deserve a president who is not only willing but also able to lead effectively. As the nation approaches a critical election, these questions must be addressed head-on, with transparency and honesty, to ensure a future that reflects the true will of the people.
