OLD AND BUSTED: You don’t have to fall in love, you just have to fall in line.

The new hotness? The week Biden lost the New York Times: Liberal paper’s Editorial Board unleashes astonishing broadside warning of ‘a dark moment’ as it runs back-to-back opinion pieces knifing the elderly president after damning special counsel report.

On February 9, the New York Times‘ Editorial Board published a damning, honest opinion piece, titled: ‘The Challenges of an Aging President.’

The team at the newspaper concluded: ‘This is a dark moment for Mr. Biden’s presidency.

They said that Biden’s performance at his news conference on Thursday night was ‘intended to assure the public that his memory is fine and argue that Mr. Hur was out of line’ – but this is not what happened.

Instead, according to the opinion piece, ‘the president raised more questions about his cognitive sharpness and temperament, as he delivered emotional and snappish retorts in a moment when people were looking for steady, even and capable responses to fair questions about his fitness.’

The board wrote: ‘His assurances… didn’t work. He must do better — the stakes in this presidential election are too high for Mr. Biden to hope that he can skate through a campaign with the help of teleprompters and aides and somehow defeat as manifestly unfit an opponent as Donald Trump.’

Such headlines haven’t gone unnoticed at the other end of the Northeast Corridor:

If only there was something Biden could do today — literally this evening! — to stem the tide: Carville: Biden not accepting Super Bowl interview is a ‘sign.’
