I just want to remind everyone what happened in 2016:
Expectations were that Hillary Clinton would collapse in a fit of seizures, stroke out or even die in a heap right there on the debate stage. She didn’t even cough or wobble her head.
She was awarded the win for exceeding expectations that were set ridiculously low - that is going to happen tonight too - Joe Biden’s senility will not be on display - he will appear somewhat normal - but with the focus on his mental acuity, all his lies and jack-assery will be overlooked.
Just as with 2016, President Trump will prevail in debate number two and three, once this dementia matter is put aside, and focus returns to what the candidates are promising, and their respective track records for keeping promises.
In 47 years of politics, Joe Biden rarely told the truth, rarely kept his promises, and even when he did, they were shitty promises to begin with. It is a record that should be easy to beat whenever they start talking about real issues and records.
In the second and third debates - President Trump will kick Biden’s ass, but tonight will be Biden’s night 100% - and all he has to do is stay awake!
This is why I hope Trump is properly prepared. At least people in this board have stopped the nonsense of Biden not showing up at the debate.
Even manure is a happy gift when your expectations are low enough.

You are absolutely correct. I will admit that I watched Biden's final debate with Bernie Sanders, expecting Biden to stumble his way through, but it didn't happen. He fumbled over a word for a few seconds here and there, but not enough to raise any eyebrows. If he does the same tonight, no matter how well President Trump performs, the media will declare Biden to be the "decisive winner."
