It is becoming difficult to come up with metaphors for how badly the Biden campaign for re-election is going this summer. 'The wheels are falling off' doesn't even come close to describing it. Not only have the wheels come off, but the brake lines have been cut, the radiator is spewing out white smoke, the timing belt is busted, the engine has seized, and the entire engine block is about to fall out of the rusted chassis.
The only person who doesn't seem to realize that the car has been totaled is Joe Biden.
Yesterday provided another blow to voter confidence in the lemon that the Democrats have put up for sale in their yard. Career Democrat operative (now disguised as a 'journalist') George Stephanopoulos was caught in an unscripted moment on the streets of New York by a pedestrian with a camera, where he said what everyone else already knows. Watch:
TMZ (@TMZ) ~ #GeorgeStephanopoulos just made a STUNNING comment: he told someone on the streets of #NewYork that he doesn't think President #JoeBiden can serve another term!

'I don't think he can serve four more years.' As the pedestrian noted in the video ... that's an answer alright.
As TMZ reports, this comment from Stephanopoulos is even more damning, not just because of his left bias, but because he just sat down to talk to Biden last week.
George's comment is telling, given he had an exclusive sit-down with the Prez just 4 days ago. George pressed Biden on his mental acuity and his dismal debate performance. Outside the White House bubble, George has spent more one-on-one time with the President than just about anyone.
The left was BIG mad that Stephanopoulos let the truth slip out.
Uh oh, Georgie ... you spoke too quickly and said what you really think. Da Karens are gonna get ya, lil' man!
Deirdre Levine (@DeirdreDLevine) ~ What are you doing @GStephanopoulos? Some journalist you are, geesh and I was a fan. Aren’t journalist supposed to stay independent?
BWHA HA HA HA HA HA!!! Yeah, Georgie ... don'tcha know that you CAN'T be INDEPENDENT unless you tow the party line and think, speak & act EXACTLY like the Democrat hive-mind demands?! Your fickle "fans" insist that you tell them precisely what they want to hear at all times. Ya can't be a good lil' propagandist if ya slip up and tell the truth every now and then.
LOL. 'Independent.' Yeah, that describes Stephanopoulos' career at ABC News alright. He just calls balls and strikes.
Yeah ... just like lil' Stephie's masters tell him to do.
Lock901 (@lock9011) ~ {Replying to @TMZ} TMZ when will you guys report on Project 2025.
They've got nothing to campaign on, so they're just going to repeat 'Project 2025' as often as they can.
They should report on "Project 2025" ... there are some good ideas in there.
However, word must have gotten back to Stephanopoulos that he committed a big 'no-no' here in a candid moment. After TMZ published the video, he and ABC News sent statements to TMZ to apologize.
Apologize for ... what, exactly? Stating the truth?
That tracks. God forbid the media ever be caught doing that.
Dylan Byers (@DylanByers) ~ NEW @PuckNews: ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, who recently interviewed Biden and was today caught in TMZ video saying he doesn’t think Biden “can serve four more years,” tells me, via spokesperson: “Earlier today I responded to a question from a passerby. I shouldn’t have.”
In a separate statement, an ABC News spokesperson tells me, “George expressed his own point of view and not the position of ABC News.”

HAHAHAHA. George did a Hagrid.
Full Professor BT (@back_ttys) ~ "I apologize for being honest for the first time in my life. It won't happen again."
We wonder if ABC News gave him a spanking. Or worse ...
Poor lil' Stephie ... they're gonna put him on the rack in the DNC's dungeon. After they stretch him for several days, he'll be unrecognizable ... he might even be over 5' 2" and be able to see over the steering wheel of his car, don'tcha know.
Hoss8696 (@PatrickLan76366) ~ He better watch it or he might get a visit from the FBI.
Yikes.
Doochebag (@no_one_quits) ~ He’s not sorry he said it, he’s just sorry he got caught saying it. Usually telling the truth means the end of a corporate propagandist's career.
BINGO. (Except Stephanopoulos probably won't lose his job.)
Naw ... they'll just beat the lil' pansy into submission.
Lake Bum (@dustopian) ~ ABC News has a position?
That's an interesting question about how ABC phrased its statement. What is ABC's position, since they felt the need to state that Stephanopoulos' words did not reflect that?
Yeah ... what exactly IS "the position" of the ... ahem ... so-called "independent journalists" of ABC, eh???!!!
They won't answer that question, but they don't really have to. Everyone knows what ABC's position is.
Later, Brian Stelter (who is kind of confusing us lately) went on CNN to talk about the comment and the apology.
Abby D. Phillip (@abbydphillip) ~ @brianstelter reacts to GMA anchor George Stephanopoulos' remarks that he doesn't think Biden can serve four more years.

Sure, Potato. Stephanopoulos is 'an outsider' and you were all 'duped.'
Give us a break.
Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) ~ Brian Stelter, who did a dozen or so segments on Trump walking down a ramp feels conned and duped by the Biden White House. Duped I tells you.
Naw, da Tater ain't a dupe - he's a dope.
jimtreacher.substack.com (@jtLOL) ~ Brian had no idea he was lying for the White House. He's a journalist!
Stelter almost told the truth during his appearance though. Stephanopoulos' opinion does matter. Not to normal people or voters, but to Democrat insiders and influencers, it does.
And that's why he had to apologize. They haven't given him permission to completely throw Biden under the bus yet.
Mark Davis (@MarkDavis) ~ This is fine, but I don’t need to hear Brian invoking “reporters who feel fooled by this White House.” It is reporters themselves who have deceived the American people with the assistance of this White House.
Pardon our corny phrasing, but who, exactly, does the media think they are fooling here?
They're only fooling the willfully ignorant, compliant stooges like those on the Further Freedom From Thought Board.
RUBQ (@Ruby_8385) ~ I'm sure ABC would of had no public announcement position if George would have said the opposite about Biden. They've supported the past biases against Trump by George so far.
This is 100 percent accurate. If Stephanopoulos had been stopped on the street and said, 'I think Joe Biden showed great acumen during our interview and I believe he is up for the job,' he would have never apologized. And ABC never would have issued a statement distancing themselves from his comments.
It wasn't bad for him to have an opinion. It was bad for him to have the wrong opinion.
Poor lil' Stephie forgot to march in lockstep with the Democrat groupthink ... and that's a serious sin against their religion.
My_Body_My_Right (@newzgirl11) ~ Again .. a journalist’s opinion who is not a doctor! @GStephanopoulos spent an hour with the president and is not a doctor!
Hmmm ... I wonder why I am probably 110% correct that this retard known as "My_Body_My_Right" was one of the first ones to say "Hold 'em down and give 'em the jab whether they like it or not!" when the Covid jungle juice mandates went out, eh???!!! What a moron.
That's a tweet that would never have been sent if Stephanopoulos had a different 'medical opinion.'
Brother Seamus (@WaynePelota) ~ “I apologize for deviating from the approved DNC narrative.”
And they accuse conservatives of being in a cult. LOL.
That's an accurate assessment right there. Not just of George Stephanopoulos' statement and apology, but the entire DNC right now.
Things sure are going swimmingly for the Biden campaign. Expect a lot more 'Project 2025' tweets and articles from the left.
