We need to put this 'I'm only being honest' bullshit behind us. Everyone needs to have a positive mindset coming out of the debates to help shape the narrative that Biden won.

I want to see headlines like...

JOE KILLED IT

RYAN WASN'T EVEN IN THE SAME LEAGUE AS BIDEN

BIDEN KICKED LYIN' RYAN'S ASS

And I'll concede I wasn't exactly optimistic after the debate ... but much of that was driven by what I heard from the MSM. Not this time.

Doom and gloom ain't going to do anything to help us. I think Joe will do very well tonight ... but even if he doesn't dropkick Ryan to the head, that doesn't mean I'm going to freak out and panic.

Joe's got this.
