President Biden WON the debate!!!!! ----

according to the Republicans,
he was supposed to drop dead while entering the stage,
drool on himself, shit his diapers (which he does not wear, but Trump does)
or not realize where he was....

None of those things happened, so he has 'won' the 'expectations game'!

He also responded reasonably well to the questions presented,
while also displaying a life-long problem with stuttering,
as well as a slight slowdown in responses natural with aging--- SO WHAT?!

He also called out Trump as a CONVICTED FELON,
and a PERPETUAL LIAR, which he IS
(and social media has been fact-checking all the Trump lies from tonight,
and it is not going very well for him)

NO, President Biden is not a Barack Obama or a Ted Kennedy rhetorically---
he is one of us lessor beings--- but he is sincere, tells the truth,
and cares about us.

That's enough for me.


Enough of the surrender-monkey bed-wetting, fellow Democrats...

Thanks for the reassurance but we got still work on it. I don't pay any my to fair weather "friends" or the Nervous Nellie's. Joe is still my guy!! Plus I'm not surprised that Rump lied his ass off and CNN allowed it without fact checking him.
LET'S GO JOE & KAMALA!!!!

He was either sick or sleep deprived or both. All that can be blamed on his team, not that it matters. We’ve seen him in other contexts, being vigorous and speaking with his normal voice. I don’t know if he just came down with a bad cold, another bout of COVID, or what, but he was NOT ok. His team could’ve helped cover that. They didn’t. Shame on them.

Are we scared? Damned right we are. This was an unforced error. They can’t make more like this.

Exactly. It seems stupid to me that some people prefer a physically stronger candidate who will put in place policies which harm them. I would rather have President Biden on a ventilator than Trump at his physical best.

As for the debate, President Biden had more facts, logic, and truth in the first five minutes than Felon Trump did all night.
