Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsHelp!!! I don't know if I can watch tonight's debate. The bar is so high for Biden . . . one gaff or
miss statement and the press, public and GOP will eat him alive. No such standard for dRump . . . he just needs one zinger that will resonate and his supporters will embrace him enthusiastically.

(7,947 posts)And is already leaking (it's probably him) how Trump refuses to prepare, that they can't get him to sit still for more than 30 minutes, that his entire prep has been less than 4 hours....
That is, already he's making excuses for failing to prep Trump.

(3,131 posts)Im not really worried, just not sure I want to listen to trump that long.
Anyone undecided doesnt have any recognizable form of logic. The temperature of the alien squids from outer space is just as likely to change their minds.

Do you really think Biden can't handle Trump? He destroyed both Sarah Palin and Paul Ryan in the VP debates. And that was without much material to show how bad they really were.
Trump has given 4 years of disasters in all areas. My only worry is that Joe will run out of time kicking Trump all over the place.

(23,294 posts)The MF will call Biden names and smear Hunter. He will deny calling our veterans suckers and losers. He will say he did a great job on Covid. He will lie his ass off like he always does. If he avoids a full mental breakdown the MSM will call him the winner. None of what happens tonight will change anybody's mind. His cult will love anything he does and says. We will get up tomorrow and be a day closer to voting the MF and his band of thieves out of our house. GOTV.

(1,684 posts)Joe will do just fine. Hes spent a lifetime of debating stuff of substance and Trump has spent a lifetime of bullshitting. Yes anything can happen but we know Joe has prepped for this thing and we know Trump has done nothing but go with his stupid gut, being the lazy disorganized asshole that he is.

(2,203 posts)C'mon, he was great in that and contrast that with *rumps sitting town hall. Day vs night.
That should give you full confidence for Joe.

(5,290 posts)If the polling has been accurate, all Joe has to do is not make any glaring errors to cause people on his side to switch over to trump. Trump, on the other hand, NEEDS to win people over from Biden to him. That's going to be hard to do. Most people have already firmly made up their minds and there are very few undecided voters. If most of the undecided voters went to trump ( doubtful), it wouldn't be enough to make up the difference where it counts.
Joe can play rope a dope all night long and let trump himself out open himself up for a few timely gut punches.
