Biden looked completely different at this rally compared to the debate last night.

Maybe it was the prepared script and notes, maybe he was really sick and had some covid head fog, or maybe it was sundowners. I don’t know what changed, but he seems like an actual fullt functioning human here.

      Last night he had to use his brain. Today he had to read teleprompters and smile. They are both work, but one is much more automatic. Loss of cognition that comes with age isn’t consistent, it ebbs and flows. We’re going to see more of this, I hoped that we would see a sober recognition of these facts today outside of the speech he did not write. The admission felt like they were pasting over what happened instead of acknowledging that blood is in the water. Yeah go vote but it sure would be nice to have a President with cognition instead of these two geriatric fellas.

      You know the people who will see this are not. Joe needed to do this at the debate and he failed so this rally will not help those who saw a weak old man fail against Trump.

      Those on the fence people saw a man who can’t run this country another 4 years. I’m afraid DNC may have fucked up and given us Trump.

        That doesn’t slide either way.

        If they’re thinking that rationally about “he’s old and therefore unfit”, they’re also aware enough to realize that a treasonous, lying rapist and convicted felon is the worse choice.

        They’ll also be aware enough to know that debates are silly primping displays that have nothing to do with being the president.

        This debate is a wash at worst for confirmed voters(Donald Trump’s obvious lies arent tolerated like they were 8 or 4 years ago) and dumps is obviously the worst imaginable choice for undecided voters.

        Plus he’s half a billion dollars in the bag right now for his campaign.

        Go vote.

        That’s a bit dramatic. There’s plenty of future opportunities for Joe to come back from the first debate. Don’t just give up, that’s what trump wants.
