    But he is very obviously fit to be president. One single bad debate and suddenly we just throw in the towel? After everything he’s already accomplished, and the dangers that Trump represents, the complete unwillingness to rally behind the candidate who already beat Trump once is insane. I don’t know what happened in the debate, nobody does really, but his performance afterwards and the day after price pretty clearly that it wasn’t senility. He’s obviously still perfectly coherent, the debate was just really bad.

    Immediately after the debate, when people were dooming out of their fucking minds, there were still undecided voters being interviewed who said Biden won on substance, and that they would vote for him after the debate. Of course maybe fewer than we would like, but people still recognized that Trump was just a bullshit spewing hose of idiotic nonsense and Biden was bringing some receipts.

      Turn back before its too late. Biden deserves to be trounced after that performance. Next gaff could be worse. Too late to give him more chances, pivot or lose. We cannot afford to Weekend at Bernies a presidential candidate. Yes. Throw in the towel, that is the only way to face reality.

        What Trump brought was an overblown ego and a fountain of lies and vitriol that his idiot followers eat up like candy.
