MSNBC host Joy Reid lashed out in a tirade saying she would vote for Joe Biden even “if he’s in a coma,” as long as it prevents Trump, who she called “Hitler,” from returning to the White House. Reid’s comments come during growing concerns over Biden’s fitness for office following his lackluster debate performance.
“Let me know when you guys are finished fighting amongst yourselves who I gotta vote for in November to keep Hitler out the White House. That’s all I wanna know,” she ranted. Her remarks were a clear jab at internal Democratic disagreements and the political battle against Republicans, whom she accused of aligning with dangerous ideologies.
“Play in traffic all you want in front of these Republicans, acting a fool in front of these people instead of privately declaring your stuff. But don’t text me no more, because I’m not taking no more of these texts. Just let me know when you guys are finished figuring it out Democrats, because I know y’all the freak out people.”
Reid’s disillusionment with her party’s leadership was palpable as she continued. “Oh, and by the way, if it’s Biden in a coma, I’m gonna vote for Biden in a coma. I don’t even really particularly like the guy. A lot of his policies, don’t like him. He’s not Donald Trump, right? Yeah, Hitler, White House, we keeping them out, keeping Project 2025 out. That’s all I care about.”

Earlier this week, Reid went on another rant at the Supreme Court’s decision to grant former President Trump immunity. “Donald John Trump cannot be allowed back into the White House. Because if you combine that madman with this court, two of whose members are insurrectionists, one of whom flew an upside down flag at his home,” she said after the July 1 ruling.
On Friday during a campaign event in Madison, Wisconsin, Biden confirmed he will remain in the presidential race. Addressing supporters, the 81-year-old President acknowledged his performance in last week’s CNN debate, which has intensified calls for him to withdraw due to concerns about his age and mental agility.
In a taped interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos, Biden described his condition as being “sick” and “feeling terrible.” When questioned about the severity of his symptoms and whether they indicated a more serious health issue, he claimed, “It was a bad episode. No indication of any serious condition. I didn’t listen to my instincts in terms of preparing, and I had a bad night.”
“I was feeling terrible. As a matter of fact, the docs with me I asked if they did a Covid test, they were trying to figure out what’s wrong. They did a test to see whether or not I had some infection, you know, a virus. I didn’t. I just had a really bad cold.” Biden’s campaign has been gearing up for a recovery effort. Both First Lady Jill Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are set to embark on a comprehensive campaign tour across all key battleground states this month.
