I agree. Biden seems fine. Trump doesn't. I still would like a more detailed answer to what happened before the debate, but I'm OK with Biden. The only hinge on that would be if it's shown he can't win. Someone I know who's been a political reporter says the tide is rising against him. I wonder what will happen now that Schiff says he should drop out.
