Honestly I don’t know how much better I could do than biden in an argument with trump. His look of just complete confusion as trump just continued to say complete nonsense was pretty much the same look I had listening to it.
Fine line. We want “enough” charisma, but we don’t want demogoguery.
I would have been fine with both of them having proxies for the debate and sitting in, with the proviso that they could chime in if their proxy said something they don’t approve.
Nah, I’m way too idealistically consistent to be a politician lol. Plus my hypoactive ADHD and social anxiety combo doesn’t lend itself well to public office 😄
That’s pretty much been the playbook since day one, just shotgun blasts complete bullshit left and right, it’s the equivalent of verbal chaff. Misdirect, confuse, and trip up the opponent so that they have to waste time refuting your BS than actually talking about the facts.
It’s really clear to me that that was trumps entire playbook. He more of his time attacking Biden and spouting lies and bullshit than answering the questions. It went exactly how I expected.
I had really hoped that Biden would find his public speaking voice. He’s competent but not a great speaker.

really fair, it’s certainly an uncommon skill but it’s definitely a skill we should be able to expect of our literal leaders
Imagine downvoting “I think the President should be good at public speaking”

You sure about that? Could have fooled the rest of the parts of the world where people are legally allowed to even acknowledge demagoguery…
Buddy, then it’s you and me against the world. I’ll be your campaign manager, you’re the charismatic one.

I really shouldn’t have dump statted CHA. Where’s Withers…
the ratio got better overnight while the DNC was asleep and eurobros had the floor but i expect it to get worse from here on out
Obama spoiled us. Hell, even dubyuh was more articulate than either of the geriatrics we have now.
But this was bog-standard Trump for his entire political career. Gish galloping is what he does. This shouldn’t have been a surprised Pikachu moment.

The man couldn’t even properly answer the abortion questions, I seriously hope you’d do better than that.
