Barstool founder Dave Portnoy has claimed Democrats sent President Joe Biden out to the debate against former president Donald Trump because they “want to whack him.”
In a video posted X, Portnoy said it was not an accident that Democrats sent Biden to debate Trump, suggesting it was part of their strategy to remove the president from the 2024 presidential ticket.
Portnoy’s post has since garnered over 1.5 million views.
“That was as good as Joe Biden could ever do in a debate. Before it started, I tweeted out ‘how are the Democrats allowing Joe Biden to do a debate?'” Portnoy said as he played clips of Biden, adding he “belongs in a nursing home.”
“The Democrats had to know that,” he added.
“Why would you agree to a debate with Biden.”
“At this stage, the earliest debate of all time, when you know he’s gone. When you know he can’t speak.”

“When you know he’s a vegetable,” Portnoy continued.
“Because they want to whack him. Because they know he is not going to be the nominee. I said this ten months ago, 11 months ago when [California Gov.] Gavin Newsom was in China being an idiot playing basketball with these little Chinese kids…”
The Barstool founder predicted Newsom was going to run for president, questioning why a governor should take a tour of the world.
“Because he knew and the Democrats knew Joe Biden is gone. He’s gone,” Portnoy said.
“And they need somebody else. And this is the scary part, like I said, Gavin Newsom is poison.”
“Gavin Newsom is everything that is wrong with every politician in the world,” he added.
“He’s the guy who ruined California, strictest lockdowns during COVID.”
He then reminded viewers how Newsom closed public beaches and masked everyone up while having dinner with friends at the French Laundry in Napa Valley with no mask in sight.
“Rules for thee, not for me,” he added.
“Gavin Newsom, he is going to be the Democratic [nominee], and I’m telling you right now, the guy is poison.”
Portnoy also noted how everyone has said “how bad Joe Biden looked.”
“And I’m not talking Republicans and the Trump people. I’m talking the Democrats, CNN, just shoveling dirt on him,” Portnoy said.
“Being like, ‘He didn’t do what he had to do. He looked weak. We may have to make a change.'”
The Barstool played several clips of media talking heads reacting to Biden’s car crash debate performance.
In one clip, CNN’s Chris Wallace said, “I think the question answers itself: he wasn’t capable of doing any better than he did.”
CNN host Van Jones said in another clip, “That was painful. We’re still far from our convention and there is time for this party to figure out a different way forward if he will allow us to do that.”
