  • I completely disagree. While the debate felt disastrous, there is ample evidence that a not insignificant amount of swing voters either saw past the old man voice to what he was actually saying and standing for, as well as recognized how badly Trump did, even though literally everyone only focuses on Biden, just like always.

    The worst possible thing we can do right now is just jump ship this close to an election. Biden has one bad debate, and is fine the day after(another thing people conveniently love to ignore) and we’re just supposed to restart. What if the new candidate does poorly at the second debate? We just pick another person again?

    Biden beat Trump last time. Trump has only grown weaker and lost support, while Biden has been extremely successful. Everyone is upset about the debate performance, but it will not be even close to as impactful as people are convincing themselves it will be.








  • 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.






  • Because they have a very public plan to completely restructure the government to make Trump a dictator and the US a theocracy. This isn’t normal. They’re openly telling us they’re going to do that.

    If you’re not afraid, you’re either trying really hard to not pay attention, or you just hate America and want it to fall.
