  1. I wish he would have shown up like this last night. One debate shouldn’t determine an election but it was a particularly terrible moment to show up the way he did.

    That being said, President Biden is a good man, a good president, and someone who loves his country and wants to protect the people in it. Mr. Trump is a rapist and an insurrectionist and his ideas and platform are a danger to the American people.

    Good day or bad, I am with Biden. It’s Carter or Reagan all over again and we can’t make that same mistake.

  2. He flubbed when it mattered, then had a better performance when it didn’t matter

  3. He has it in him. He just failed to deliver when it mattered. I’m not buying into the calls for replacement because I can’t see an alternative candidate getting enough support in time.

    At the end of the day, we’re voting for an administration, not just a president. The debate solidified my doubts about Biden’s ability to continue for 4 more years. But I’m still voting for him because I’m confident in what his VP can accomplish if his strength fails completely.

  4. There is unfortunately no real bouncing back from last night unless they prove that was a deep fake during the debate. 

    The content of his speech was irrelevant, he does not look competent to be a Wal-Mart greeter.

    I’ve already said it elsewhere, but the argument for Biden’s fitness cannot rest on Trump’s badness. We are in a sorry state politically and the further down the road we go with him the worse it will get. Better course correct as soon as possible.

  5. Biden made more money today than any prior day in this race. Suck on them apples Republoseicans.

  6. Anyone who thinks this can erase last night’s performance is being incredibly niave.

  7. He gave a very solid speech there. Fluid, energetic, even fiery. I’d recommend it to anyone. It’s just so sad that he couldn’t come out in this shape for the debate, for whatever reason.

  8. Does anyone remember Trump will be receiving his sentence for his criminal conviction in less than 3 weeks?

  9. That’ll stem the bleeding, at least, but it won’t be enough to totally reverse the damage. Not yet, at least.

  10. Raleigh rally? Noice

    He was a different person tonight, some stutters, but full of piss and vinegar, how I like my malarkey.

  11. Presidents have speech writers… these words could very well have been written for by, directly practiced, and up in front of him when they were delivered. That is not how real world situations go, and Biden showed last night that he can’t handle the real deal. I’ve seen my middle school students make great speeches – live in the moment is something different.

  12. Y’all that clip of this that is going viral bout moved me to tears. He’s gonna be ok.

  13. He needs to decline the nomination if we wanna win In November.

  14. Variation of the title: “Grandpa had a “good day” today.”

  15. Too bad 51 million people aren’t watching it like they were last night 😒 

  16. I also find it funny that everyone has forgotten all the crazy shit trump spews at his “rallies” bc Biden had one pretty awful night. I mean, trump was fucking nuts at the debate but he’s crazier when he’s in front of his cult members. Biden’s team needs to put out some supercuts of trump’s incoherent ramblings. There’s plenty out there.

  17. I feel like there should be a term for when old people are normal and energetic earlier in the day then later in the evening (after the sun goes down) they are incoherent and agitated. Really wish there was a word for this specific condition smh
