"Joe Biden crashed and burned in the first debate. The New York Times, who claims to be defenders of Democracy, now want to cancel the entire nominating process that formally nominated Joe Biden to be the Democratic party nominee for President," says Eugene Delgaudio, president of Public Advocate.
"I agree with conservative Mark Levine that this is pure hypocrisy on the part of the entire cabal of self-proclaimed defenders of democracy as they all show their face as destroyers of democracy in fact, " says Delgaudio.
"The New York Times along with hundreds of posted comments, interviews, commentary and outright public demands by the same leftists who defend Democracy, now want to destroy the entire Democratic process," says Delgaudio.
The New York Times editorial board called on President Biden to step aside as the Democratic nominee, saying it is the "greatest public service" he can perform, but added that it will endorse him if he remains the nominee.
In an unprecedented and scathing op-ed, The New York Times said Mr. Biden appeared on the debate stage against former President Donald Trump as "the shadow of a great public servant."
"He struggled to explain what he would accomplish in a second term. He struggled to respond to Mr. Trump's provocations. He struggled to hold Mr. Trump accountable for his lies, his failures and his chilling plans. More than once, he struggled to make it to the end of a sentence," the typically left-leaning editorial board wrote.
The editorial came less than 24 hours after a disastrous debate performance in which Mr. Biden struggled to complete his thoughts, had little energy and gave rambling, meandering answers...................
"To make a call for a new Democratic nominee this late in a campaign is a decision not taken lightly, but it reflects the scale and seriousness of Mr. Trump's challenge to the values and institutions of this country and the inadequacy of Mr. Biden to confront him," the op-ed said.
