Daily Wire co-founder Jeremy Boreing said that the Thursday night presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden may end up being one of the most important debates in American history.

Boreing made the comments during Thursday night’s “Backstage” episode where Daily Wire hosts Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Andrew Klavan, and Michael Knowles reacted to the face-off between Trump and Biden hosted by CNN. Much of the focus of the analysis looked at Biden’s poor performance as he mumbled and appeared confused throughout.

“This may end up truly being one of the most consequential or the most consequential presidential debates in the history of the country,” Boreing said immediately after both Trump and Biden gave their closing arguments.

“We were all joking earlier about how Biden’s doctors administered narcotics to him, I now believe they practice necromancy. That was the closest to a dead person I’ve ever seen on TV,”  Knowles said, also commenting on Biden’s physical and mental performance.

“Biden can’t even finish his sentence. Trails off into nonsense. Never seen a presidential candidate freeze like that. A moment that will be remembered forever. And it’s only going to get worse for Biden from here,” Walsh said.

Shapiro said that Biden’s performance should lead Americans to ask more questions about how the White House was being run.

“This is the real question that we should all be asking and this should be asked from the top of rooftops from now until the end of time. For three years, the media and the Democratic Party have been lying to you. This man is senile, he is obviously senile, he is obviously addled, and someone else is President of the United States, and it is not Joe Biden. Who is the person that is President of the United States?”

The hosts also praised Trump for his performance during the debate, saying that he “clocked” Biden on issues from immigration to inflation. Trump consistently brought up the millions of illegal immigrants who have entered the country under Biden.

“The other thing about Trump that I have been saying for years, and no one will believe this, but it’s true, is he learns stuff, more than other people his age and more than most politicians,” Klavan said.

Following the debate, reports quickly emerged that top Democratic strategists were panicking over Biden’s debate performance. The next debate is scheduled for September.

Megyn Kelly said “it is over for Joe Biden” following CNN’s presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Biden.

During Sirius XM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show” 2024 Post-Debate Special, Kelly opened her podcast by calling into question whether Biden will be able to finish his term after the president stumbled, rambled, and froze several times throughout the course of the 90 minutes.

“In my view, it is over for Joe Biden,” the host told her audience. “His presidential campaign came to an end tonight, whether he knows it or not. There will be meetings tonight, first thing tomorrow amidst Democratic Party leaders about how to get him off the ticket.”

“How to change into someone else. There have to be,” she added. “Already, we are seeing some reaction from top Democrats, who rarely criticize the president, suggesting he needs to have a serious look at this performance tonight and assess for himself whether he can go forward.”

“It was an unmitigated disaster. It was uncomfortable to watch,” Kelly continued, noting that while watching the debate, she thought Biden was “so distant, so frail, so hard to comprehend, so unsteady.”

The journalist said she has real questions whether Biden “will be his party’s nominee” and “whether he can possibly serve out his term,” calling the contrast between Trump and Biden on stage together “stark.”

The host of the show said Trump came out “calm, cool, collected … he looked comfortable” and “strong,” unlike his opponent.

“He’s the President of the United States, that man [Biden], who couldn’t spit out numbers … and lied at every answer because he seemed confused,” Kelly said. “How is that our leader? How are the Democrats going to nominate that man?”

“And shame on you, Jill Biden, for allowing that,” she added. “I want answers from all these top Democrats telling us about how robust Biden is. That’s who I want to hear from most. You lied. Did you not think this moment was going to come? That we’d never see this?”

“It’s a dark day for this country,” Kelly continued. “He’s our leader. No one wants to see him embarrassed, but we’re embarrassed ourselves tonight.”

Kelly’s comments were echoed by many other journalists on social media during the debate.

Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld wrote on X, “It doesn’t matter what the answers are anymore. The debate demonstrates what we already knew: Biden is not fit to be president. It’s sad that it had to come to this – to force this elderly man through this. and force us to watch. This is gross.”

New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff added on X, “I wish Biden would reflect on this debate performance and then announce his decision to withdraw from the race, throwing the choice of Democratic nominee to the convention. Someone like @gretchenwhitmer or @SherrodBrown or @SecRaimondo could still jump in and beat Trump.”

While CNN anchor Kasie Hunt wrote on X, “The voice, open-mouthed look, and visual contrast between President Biden and former President Trump all have Democrats I’m talking to nearly beside themselves watching this debate.”
