I’m let down thinking of all the billions upon billions of support dollars both the Rs and Ds have, here’s the presidential candidates. Problem for me is, the president position hardly matters as to what the parties will do when in power. ---

> [@SenorBeef](#): > > Given how hard they were pushing the Biden drug angle he’s almost certainly loaded up on drugs, but he usually is, so I’m not sure that’s the explanation. Drugs are good if that’s what perked him up for the SOTU Address. But his prepping needed to be based on his strengths which is not 90 minutes of talking points without crib notes. ---

Biden at least said something about child care. ---

Biden is laughing at him for bragging on his Poll numbers and saying he is the top president ever. ---

> [@Mr.Greenjeans](#): > > Trump is better talking in these short, 2 minute chunks. He doesn’t have time to ramble Quite so – enables him to maintain the discipline, as mentioned before, never mind the question, hammer on the talking points. Then time is called and the wandering is prevented. Which works into my theory in the making – the crowd feedback at rallies overstimulates him and, with no limit on time or mic access, he can’t help just taking off on random word jazz. As **octopus** points out, he has a discipline problem. ---

I’m on Beer Number 4. It’s all of Trump’s superlatives (worst, best, etc.) and “Nobody’s ever \_\_\_”. My own drinking game, I guess. ---

Sorry, I stated that badly - the fact that the Trump campaign was putting out so many accusations that Biden would be on drugs means that they definitely pumped Trump full of drugs, since he always accuses people of what he’s doing. I don’t know how Trump managed to pull it together for this because he has been all over the place and confused and demented at his rallies over the last few months. I thought drugs were not enough of an explanation because Trump routinely uses amphetamines anyway. ---

Trump is lying outrageously, as I expected. But I’m worried about the impression that Biden’s voice may give. Subjectives count. ---

I think people overestimated trumps incoherence by watching too many of his rallies where he gets overexcited by his crowd and his narcissism. ---

At the end of the day it’s Biden job to call bullshit on Trump in real time. He is not able to do it. It’s not the moderators job, or next day fact checkers. These are basic obvious lies going unchecked. ---

He’s got a pretty simple formula. “What would you do on [issue]?” “At the end of my presidency, the [issue] was the best it’s ever been. No one has ever seen it that good. It was perfect. He just had to leave it alone. But he had to ruin it. Now it’s the worst it’s ever been” It’s a little more incoherent than that but it actually hurts me to write in a more Trump-like way. ---
