If Biden had slept through the entire debate I'd still vote for him over Trump.
I'd vote for a card board cut out of Biden over Trump.
You need to understand the President is more of a figure head than a useful role. He can't do anything on his own except moving troops around. All you want in a president is someone who isn't crazy and likely to start a war. That is all you need. His aides take care of most things for him. He's just a decision maker and has lots of people helping him make those decisions. But he can't really pass any laws himself. Executive orders have narrow reaches and that is all he can do.
Yes, same. My fear is about how his performance went over with those on the sidelines whom we need to motivate to vote. We needed them to see Biden like he is here at the rally or during SOTU.
True, they likely didn't sit there watching the whole thing. However, they're now being bombarded with clips from the debate where Biden did so poorly on TV and online, in addition to all the discussion. Sadly, this performance got broadcast wider than any of his others, except maybe the SOTU.
I consider myself plugged in and I didn’t watch it, only saw Jon Stewart’s response to it. Which yeah it wasn’t great but whatever. I think most people will likely remember the shitty 4 years of Trump
Man, I hope they remember and also understand the threats to our rights with him in office. I see way too much of people stating how things were cheaper under him and failing to remember it was due to the pandemic.
P.S. wish I had only watched Jon's coverage. I did not need those 90 minutes of panic.
