Megyn Kelly declared, “It is over for Joe Biden“, in response to his disastrous presidential debate performance against former President Donald Trump.
During Sirius XM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show,” Kelly questioned whether Biden would be able to finish his term after observing his rambling and glitches throughout the 90-minute CNN debate.
“In my view, it is over for Joe Biden,” Kelly told her audience.
“His presidential campaign came to an end tonight, whether he knows it or not.”
“There will be meetings tonight, first thing tomorrow amidst Democratic Party leaders about how to get him off the ticket.”
“How to change into someone else. There have to be,” she added.
“Already, we are seeing some reaction from top Democrats, who rarely criticize the president, suggesting he needs to have a serious look at this performance tonight and assess for himself whether he can go forward.”
“It was an unmitigated disaster,” the host stated.
“It was uncomfortable to watch,” Kelly continued, noting that while watching the debate, she thought Biden was “so distant, so frail, so hard to comprehend, so unsteady.”
Watch
Kelly also questioned whether Biden “will be his party’s nominee” and “whether he can possibly serve out his term,” while describing the contrast between Trump and Biden on stage together as “stark.”
The host said Trump came out as “calm, cool, collected … he looked comfortable” and “strong,” unlike Biden.
“He’s the President of the United States, that man [Biden], who couldn’t spit out numbers … and lied at every answer because he seemed confused,” Kelly said.
“How is that our leader? How are the Democrats going to nominate that man?”
“And shame on you, Jill Biden, for allowing that,” she added.
“I want answers from all these top Democrats telling us about how robust Biden is. That’s who I want to hear from most. You lied. Did you not think this moment was going to come? That we’d never see this?”
“It’s a dark day for this country,” Kelly continued. “He’s our leader. No one wants to see him embarrassed, but we’re embarrassed ourselves tonight.”
Kelly’s remarks were echoed by many mainstream media talking heads, including MSNBC host Joy Reid, who admitted her phone never stopped buzzing throughout the debate from panicked Democrats.
Meanwhile, Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld wrote on X
“It doesn’t matter what the answers are anymore. The debate demonstrates what we already knew: Biden is not fit to be president. It’s sad that it had to come to this – to force this elderly man through this. and force us to watch. This is gross.”
New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff added on X:
“I wish Biden would reflect on this debate performance and then announce his decision to withdraw from the race, throwing the choice of Democratic nominee to the convention. Someone like @gretchenwhitmer or @SherrodBrown or @SecRaimondo could still jump in and beat Trump.”
CNN anchor Kasie Hunt wrote on X:
“The voice, open-mouthed look, and visual contrast between President Biden and former President Trump all have Democrats I’m talking to nearly beside themselves watching this debate.”
Biden is finished.
