Literally nobody on the face of the earth, thinks that he isn't afraid.

He came out far on top in the last debate, doesn't seem like he has any justification to make changes.

I still don't get all the gaslighting. I watched the Biden Trump debate, and Biden did just fine.

You must have been watching a different debate

Nope, watched the first 30 minutes of it. Unless he had a literal stroke the last half hour. He did fine. Just looked old and tired, which apparently means he did awful in the debate. Meanwhile, trump lied constantly, and didn't answer half of the questions he was asked. But all anybody talked about after the debate is how bad Biden did, and how he should step down.

The media is the reason Biden did bad at the debate. I agree with you. Biden didn't have the best showing, but if you listened to what he said, he made good points and answered questions well enough. He did lose track and mumbled some, which is part speech impediment and part age, but not a new phenomenon. Trump lied about every, didn't answer many questions, and sounded like an idiot. Yet after the debate no news stations said anything about how shitty Trump was, just how old Biden is.

I hope him stepping down works out, but the media made him lose the debate, not his performance against someone who did worse.
