Was Debate a Setup or Genuine Democratic Failure?

Could they Really Set Up Such an Embarrassment to Themselves?

I had read a lot of theories here on Substack that Biden performance on the debate was a regime setup. That is, the regime realized that Biden being a vegetable he is couldn’t perform even puppet function any longer, and that they badly need to replace him. Hence, they fertilized the soil for it by finally lifting the immense blindfold from the eyes of their brainless voters, and showing Biden to everyone in his full vegetable glory.

I won’t deny, it might be. But I have a question though - if Demon Rats and their billionaire masters simply wanted to replace Biden, why didn’t they just tell him to step down and leave the stage quietly, without such an embarrassment, citing old age and poor health as a reason? As a puppet Biden would have obeyed anything they told him anyway. That would have been pretty plausible reason too, and might have saved Biden face.

Then why exactly did Demon Rats have to lose their face so badly? Why did they stage such a great embarrassment for themselves? Their voters, however brainwashed vegetables they are themselves, would still be turned away by that open display of Biden late stage dementia. Then WHY did Demon Rats damage their own reputation so badly when they could have easily avoided it by telling Biden to step aside quietly? Something doesn’t fit in the setup narrative.

Or, if it was a setup indeed, then its goals aren’t as simple as to replace Biden. Which goals are those then? I don’t know. Maybe they just want us all to fully immerse in the Absurdity Theater they turned our political life into, and that was a first deep dive into this ocean of madness.

Or maybe, just maybe, they’re well aware that many Americans are pissed with Demon Rats, and are setting stage for Trump victory, so their brainwashed public would finally accept him as a lesser evil compared to this dementia vegetable? But then it doesn’t bode well for us because it would mean Trump is also their puppet, albeit not as obvious.

Or maybe there’s something else, I don’t know, but I don’t believe that this setup was merely to replace Biden because as I said this goal might have been achieved much less dramatically. Or maybe it wasn’t a setup but their genuine failure - that is, they told us SO OFTEN how ‘acute and competent’ Biden is that they started to believe their own lies eventually, and it backfired at them. But could we be really so lucky? Not sure. But the whole thing was surely surreal.
