As most of the media — and the country — is laser focused on the president’s poor debate performance, a handful of outspoken analysts have wondered: Where is the same scrutiny of Donald Trump? Kelly Rissman reports
That’s not how old age works. Biden is not getting better, that’s the whole point. This wasn’t a political gaffe, it was a consequence of the inevitable collapse of age. Biden needs to step down, literally the only way Dems have a chance to win at this point.
I don’t think that came up or showed in the debate so probably didn’t affect it. This is about the debate performance and its effect after all. If people didn’t care about that before the debate, they’re not going to suddenly care after it.
I don’t know you so I can’t say. But maybe, most do that. But the debate is part of the decision making. In this instance, Biden’s performance was dogshit, which was the point. As awful as Trump is, somehow people were more put off by Biden than Trump, if we consider how the polling changed after it. And that’s just awful result for Biden.

He could have been better. But there are more debates. He can come out stronger next time.

Disagree. He’s been a good president and far better than his opponent. His ACTIONS are a million times better than Trump.
I agree, but as Carter showed, being a good president isn’t enough to get reelected.
I would trade Biden in for someone ten years older if it meant we’d get a strict and intelligent moderator
Lmao no shit, would’ve been hard to have been worse
You’re right. He could have been Trump.
Didn’t Trump gain support from the debate while Biden lost it to the degree that people from his own party are openly calling for him to drop out?
He’s still a rapist. So there’s that.

You mean I take more information than just a debate to make a decision?
