You’re a better man than I, Gunga Din. I’m watching like it’s a horror movie with my hands over my eyes and can’t stop watching. ---

Trump will end the Ukraine/Russia war between the time he’s elected and when he takes office. Where have we heard this bullshit before? The hard part is too many will believe this bullshit. ---

Sorry but Joe needs to be more trumpy. He should be loaded with bon mots, and not let anything go. “Youre a convicted felon who wants to be elected to stay out of jail” ---

It’s not too late for Joe to step down and give the candidacy to someone else, is it? I think that may be necessary after this, it’s that bad. ---

Cite? These debates are about rhetoric and appearance more so than fact or logic. At the moment Biden isn’t sounding or looking as robust as Trump and that’s going to be a problem in the endless snippets that will be cherry picked to support a narrative. ---

I just tuned in and not being american, I havent heard both speaking recently … but (sadly) I must say that Trump comes across as “younger and more dynamic” … and I am honestly surprised how frail Biden appears. … I am not speaking content here, just “presentation” … Trump “feels” easily 10+ years younger than Biden … and that age thing seems a central topic … ---

I don’t believe what they say is going to matter here. If the concern about Biden was that he was too old, …Oh, boy. ---

> [@Quondam\_Mechanic](#): > > Sounds to me as if Biden over-prepared a little and is rushing trying to get out all the stuff he’s ready to say. That and being hoarse… Sigh. He did well with the State of the Union Address and that’s likely due to crib notes that are not allowed in this debate. He’s also as animated as during the Address. If he loses his energy before the end and mumbles it’s going to hurt him. ---

I think he over prepared which is why his voice is hoarse. I hope he bucks up more soon. He needs to get pissed. ---

This is a very surreal debate. Trump is coming up with a stream of nonsense, but at least he looks confident, and his articulation is less awkward. Biden seems more emotional and less sure, even if his points are generally better. Neither is coming across that well - no witty comments, little charisma. Trump looks angry, but Biden looks bewildered and disheartened. Biden needs to smile, slow down, emphasize important points, keep his eyes open and look lively, be folksier. It isn’t easy to respond to a Gish Gallop gush. But Biden knew it was coming, and hasn’t responded that well. ---
