Biden Faces Career-Ending Disaster — and Those Who Led Him Here Should Be Ashamed

I was staying at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Los Angeles in 2009, and at 8:30 one night, my suite suddenly began to rock wildly.

Chairs flew across the room; the minibar rattled furiously, then burst open, sending bottles flying; my clothes tumbled out of the closet; for 20 seconds, it felt like the world was about to end.

The whole experience was so shocking to my system that it took me many hours to get over it, and I barely slept. The US presidential debate between President Biden and former President Donald Trump had the same effect on me, but the repercussions are likely far more profound.

And from that moment, just a few minutes into the 90-minute debate, Biden was a dead man walking, both metaphorically and, sadly, almost literally.

I say sadly because nobody wants to see an older man humiliated live on television like that in front of tens of millions of people. It was so shudderingly painful to watch that I felt the same sharp pangs of discomforting anxiety I felt when going through that actual earthquake 15 years ago.

They should have stopped the debate right then and there. That would have been the kind, humane thing to do.
