The Old Man And The Con Man

This is how I feel about the debate. Trump lied his ass off. Biden struggled with his stutter, failed to call Trump on his lies, and was unable to finish some sentences.

Trump was able to finish his sentences, it was simply all lies.

So while Biden voters will still vote for him, the debate now shifted to whether a vote for Biden is now more like a vote for Kamala Harris.

Biden needed to convince his voters that he's going to survive the next 4 years. He failed.

Trump did not need to convince his voters he's not lying, and he did great there, lied his ass off, but it's not like that it matters to his people.

I'm hoping the DNC, and the Biden team, are sitting down, this minute, how to figure out how to ask Biden to step aside.

If it's not too late already, this needs to happen quickly and decisively. It also needs to come from his own team. If an attempt to get him to stand down fails, then it does even more damage and give trump even more attack lines.

You were right when you said he should never have stood.

@Burnley123 Technically, he needs to withdraw, and release his electors prior to the convention in August. I have nothing against his performance as President, but he needs to prove he's healthy enough to be in office for the next 4 years.

Trump did not win the debate, he won the performance. Every single claim he made was false, and he did not address ay of the key issues asked of him. He even denied he made the statements he factually made. However, when President Biden responds, in a halting voice, that people should look it up, that's not enough.

Sad.
