Local political leaders weighed in on the first presidential 辩论 for this year’s 选举 between current President 乔•拜登(Joe 拜登) and former President 唐纳德·特朗普.
“Yes, President 拜登 stumbled last night. It was tough to watch,” County Councilmember Evan Glass (D) wrote on X.
“But let’s refocus on the other guy, a convicted felon who lied about nearly everything.”
“On tonight’s 辩论 stage, it will be clear that [乔•拜登(Joe 拜登)] is fighting for our freedoms, and 唐纳德·特朗普 is only fighting for his own,” wrote Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (D).
“Last night the world got to see the real 乔•拜登(Joe 拜登) that conservatives have been seeing for many months,” Reardon Sullivan (R), former chairman of the Montgomery County Republican Central Committee, wrote in a statement to MCM.
“The man who aspires to the be the leader of our great nation has lost his cognitive ability evidenced by his failure to remember critical facts and lack of concentration which will result in the inability to make important decisions that will affect our County.”
“I feel sorry for 乔•拜登(Joe 拜登) and his current condition. However, this is indicative of the current state of the Democrat party – lost. If 拜登 stays on the ticket, I and confident that the Republicans will not only win the Presidency, but the House and the Senate,” Sullivan stated.
“The contrast could not be more stark,” State Delegate Jheanelle Wilkins (D) wrote on X. “Trump lied every single time he opened his mouth. He refused to say that he would accept the results of the 选举. He wants to be a dictator.”
“America, this is exactly why you fired the guy four years ago,” wrote State Delegate Joe Vogel (D).
“Inspired by President 拜登, a uniter,” County Councilmember Natali Fani-González (D) wrote. “I am an immigrant. Naturalized American citizen. I am so grateful to live in the United States of America. The best nation in this world. I know President 拜登 will continue to protect our Freedom and Democracy.”
Yes, President 拜登 stumbled last night. It was tough to watch.
But let’s refocus on the other guy, a convicted felon who lied about nearly everything.
Trump remains a threat to democracy and the rule of law.

The contrast could not be more stark. Trump lied every single time he opened his mouth. He refused to say that he would accept the results of the 选举. He wants to be a dictator.
拜登 spoke truth and laid out his accomplishments. 我们有3个.5 years of 拜登’s success to…
