President Biden brushed off concerns about his debate performance against former President Trump Thursday despite widespread panic among Democrats about how the night played out.
They were both caricatures of themselves up there.
Trump was a bombastic bully who lied constantly and dodged virtually every question. Did little else but talk shit.
Biden was… Half asleep. Mumbling, trailing off stuttering, losing track of what he was saying…
This country is fucking embarrassing.
The problem is Trump was also far more put together than usual and didn’t go for his normal style of interrupting everything. So he lied his ass off but his tone was reasonable. And that’s something that fools way too many people.
It’s not going to matter how Trump did because there’s gonna be clips of Biden all over social media showing him mumbling and stuttering. He looked terrible, the attack ad footage is just there for the taking.
They will make a bunch of super cuts of Trump talking confidently and then Biden trailing off and getting confused. They will flood Facebook and Tiktok with them.
The “every accusation is a confession” rule suggests that he was on some meds to help him keep his composure. Definitely not any truth serums though.
