    Jesus Christ, can you wait until maybe post 5 before desperately trying to derail a thread.

    Funny how the left wing Biden apologists think Biden’s obvious deterioration is ‘normal’ and ‘valued’.

    So ignore the opinion of the newsman, just watch the video.... You see Biden as competent? Of course you don't. Not really-
    Because you see what we all see, and you are not so unintelligent you don't recognize it.
    Denial is not an asset that makes you credible. Just the opposite. Either your eyesight, your judgement or your character has failed you.

    He was undiplomatic, he was NOT tough....just hot air and was FOR Trump first.
    Trump was being attacked from day one on an image he had cultivated from over a lifetime in the news. He has always been considered as an overblown, overbearing, clownish person.
    Not true and just a talking point. Have you listened to Trump? I mean, talk about incoherent. God help us if a squirrel would pass while he is speaking.
    Trump in a nutshell. But a President is also only as good as the people around him.
    And now....that's what you're getting
    He speaks as one with a stutter speaks. Can you prove your point with an old clip of Biden to compare? I can prove Trump has been an ******* for decades with clips.
    Again, you're talking about Trump. Ask the Joint Chiefs.

    Is it your position that Mr Jones speaks for the entire nation of Australia? I only ask because of your thread title.

    He at least identifies the issue in front of everyone that the left wants to ignore.

    A) Doesn't make what the OP did any less disingenuous
    B) Seems both sides have issues they want to ignore. That's why I always say...both sides are a bunch of c**ts

    Denial is a progressive thing; the more people defend a position of hate and bias, the more ludicrous the claims become.
    Tough management makes enemies- within and without. It also get things done that the make-work plodders never get around to, and it addresses needs that politicians fear might be unpopular.

    I don't know of any conservative that denied Trump had faults, and understood most of them. For example the focus on sex or infidelity ranted about, when the majority of our presidents have also been also involved in infidelities. Trump was a shrewd businessman- a deal maker, and no doubt pissed off a lot of people. However that is the game in the big leagues; the competition is on that level and the losers always blame someone else- not unlike politics. With the lefties however, they are blind to the faults of the people they allow to take power, and follow like baby geese.

    Aside from Trump or any news announcer, and rational person can see Biden has developing dementia. It was obvious before the election- and no such person is qualified to handle perhaps the most stressful job in the world. He's a puppet, not a leader- and a person unable to grasp what is going on, let alone have the competence to make good calls and decisions. That would be true if Trump had never existed.

    Biden stuttered as a child. If you think what is happening at the news conference is stuttering- you need to read up. On the other hand, that and many other examples are textbook examples of earlier stages of dementia. Just last week, we buried a woman I've known for more than 50 years, and over the last two watched dementia progress- not only memory slows, but cognizance and basic abilities such as counting money, understanding danger, being gullible grew quickly. A once very sharp and prudent person became vulnerable to all sorts of con men, and her chosen heir had to take over her affair with conservatorship.
    TWO YEARS- to go from a normal person of high character who had always been prudent and independent into a woman who could get lost in her own house.

    You saw Joe Biden in the video clip from a current interview. Here's one from one of his previous presidential runs. Compare- and tell us you hears stuttering, and there's no difference in capacity.

    It's not something to make fun of; it's sad and a loss- but neither is it a condition you endow with political empower. That is flat out dangerous to the entire nation.

    I hope you appreciate the irony of your statement as much as I do.

    Why wouldn't they love the guy wanting to use American taxpayers dollars to pay the bulk of their defense budgets?

    Now you're just trying for excuses.

    Sky News is the FOX of Australia, and you guy is not even CLOSE to representing Australia as prove above.

    Next time you go for political smear, check your partisan reflexes.

    This is so damned embarrassing I couldn't even stand to watch the whole thing.

    I was thinking the same thing you were, except in reverse! When other countries supposedly thought badly of Trump, the left was hysterical, claiming they were SO EMBARRASSED. Now this indignity, and not a peep from the left. Just depends on what side you're on, I guess.

    There is a difference when Australia doesn't actually feel that way, when the poster was trying hard for partisan smear (and that's all he could find!!) and when the issues with Trump had to do with the serious disappointment of actual leaders of other countries.

    He has never been or even thought of as a good business manager.

    Again, read the above article.
    The town hall is an off-the-cuff question and answer. The clip you showed was a prepared speech. Big difference. BTW......Trump is insane.

    I’d rather Australia like our President than China. Too bad I guess for the next 3.5 years.

    While I do agree with many posters here that international opinion of our politics should matter to us about as much as a fart in the wind, its worth noting that China Joe does represent a credible threat to Australia. Tho I think maybe they should be bolstering their territorial defenses instead of just complaining...

    Anyone who cares about America having influence/leadership in this world cares what other countries think.

    The really weird thing about you is that you SOUND like you care about China, but you STATE that you don't care.

    Just out of some vague curiosity, which is it?

    Cognitive decline should be considered serious for someone with the nuke codes.

    I said I don't care what other countries think about our politics. To alleviate further confusion regarding what I apparently mistakenly assumed was obvious, let me clarify- I don't care what other countries think about our internal politics.
