If tRump gets emotional or emphatic in his speeches, he has good diction and understandable sentence structure (though rambling and repetitive). Emotions help memory recall.

He mumbles and forgets his train of thought when his voice is low, like when he is just repeating something he's said over a thousand times.

But inevitably at some point tRump will rile himself up or attack the moderator or Biden. From that point on, set the hooks in and drag tRump all around the debate stage.

We've seen it frequently when he is on the campaign trail. Trump thrives on being angry and combative.

However, he also seems incapable, even when not degenerated into gibberish, of sticking to the point. He goes off on an angry tantrum rant about something unrelated. If student debt comes up, he will give that a sentence or two and then suddenly be talking about windmills and the 2020 election. I still don't think he would fare well, though you are right that he is worse when bored. But he is also stupid, and Biden is very smart and I get the impression he is not easily riled. It would be fairly easy to drag Donnie around, IMO.

TFG's dementia is getting worse



https://www.rawstory.com/trump-glitches-rally-pennsylvania/

"Adlinthin," "Magastine," and "weak nicks" are among the things Donald Trump said at his Saturday rally in Pennsylvania. The internet had a field day with all of them.

Trump this weekend gave a rally speech in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, where he opened the talk by drawing attention to the ongoing Iranian attacks on Israel. But political onlookers and citizen journalists were quick to point out the former president's "glitches" that occurred throughout the campaign event.

Trump in one instance said that the people of Israel are under attack because the United States has shown "great weak nicks." Actress Morgan Fairchild was quick to point that one out.

"Weak NICKS?" she asked on social media following Trump's comment.....

@JoJoFromJerz added, "We see what’s happening alright. It’s called dementia. And it’s getting worse."

@Trumpnado2016 asked, "What's an adelethelin?" The account added, "We all fumble words, but these Trump glitches are getting really weird."
