Holt had a bad night. Not clicking on all cylinders. Sneederbunk Jul 15 #5

He should probably step down. StarryNite Jul 15 #8

Combative? I didn't see that at all. I saw Biden challenge the mindless double standard behind too many of the questions ancianita Jul 15 #6

Yup. That was a bullshit StarryNite Jul 15 #9

I appreciated O’Donnell reminding the panel that it was reported that 40 Democrats were allegedly supposed to come out after the NATO press conference and demand Biden step aside.

Seems like everyone has forgotten that reporting, which was very “definitive.”

And then that absolutely did not happen. Didn't happen Friday, didn't happen Saturday, didn't happen Sunday.

I think he’s correct that the “Biden must drop out story” ended Friday. Despite some still wanting to keep it alive.

And I looked at the other NBC links and they would not be popular here, nor do I want to watch them, speeches by the likes of MTG and Ron Johnson. They're covering the Republican Convention live.

And I'm also grateful that the calls for the president to step down have died down, even though the news has been replaced by the shooting. President Biden has the delegates to secure the nomination and it would not be fair to the voters - or to him - to replace him with any lesser candidate at this late date.
