If he is OK mentally, why were so many Democrats and supporters calling for
him to step down?  Did you miss that?

> What celebrity are you refering to?

After the debate, the following celebrities (and this is not all of them)
started pressuring the party to ask Biden to step down.

George Clooney wrote an op-ed in the New York Times questioning Biden's
age and mental state, and asking him to step down.  He admitted that Biden
had been showing signs of decline even before the debate.

The day after the debate, the panel of the tv talk show "The View"
collectively asked during their show that he step down.

Susan Sarandon, in an interview in Variety, asked for him to step down,
stating that the reason "should be obvious."

Rob Reiner and Stephen King, per Newsweek, both posted on social media that
it was time for Biden to step down.  Per Newsweek, actor John Cusack also
asked for Biden to step down.

Michael Moore, during an MSNBC interview, accused the Democrat Party of
"elder abuse" and asked "Why did they let him go out on the (debate) stage in
this condition?"  He suggested that Biden step down.

In a statement made to CNBC, Disney heiress and Democrat donor Abigail Disney
asked for him to step down and suggested that donors should stop contibuting
to the party until he did so.

The Obamas are no longer in politics (supposedly) so I would throw them into
the celebrity category as well.

Prove to me that Clooney, the Obamas, HRC, Pelosi, and several other
*Democrats*, who requested that he step down because of his mental health,
are *Republicans* and I will have to agree with you.

Prove to me that Clooney was the only Democrat/celebrity/donor smart enough to
figure out that something was amiss before the debate and I will have to agree
with you.

Otherwise, only someone with an agenda, their head in the sand, or some
cognitive problems of their own believes that Biden was A-OK right up until
the debate.
