    John Stuart said it best - Trump meet everyone’s expectations of him. His followers are either deranged or are just exploiting his madness. Biden was the one with something to prove and he ducking blew it.

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

        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.

          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
