I think knowing he was outnumbered going in was disconcerting to the President. He could handle Biden. How did he know what Wallass was going to do?
“. How did he know what Wallass was going to do?”
How could he not?
That is the rub, the President should have assumed it was going to be two against one and prepared accordingly. Trump's strength is arrogance. Supreme belief in himself and his abilities to command any situation. That character trait is also his Achilles Heel. Trump was just being Trump.
I think Trump came into the debate pissed off. He tried to insure that he wasn’t up there with a juiced-up automaton talking from a wire in his ear.
His people let him down, so he was pissed.
Joe slept for 5 days to be ready for that.
Hopefully, Trump can move on. One tactic these asshats are using is to get under his skin.
He’s a doer, not a talker. He needs to keep getting things done and bring some humor to the next one. I wanted to see him put a little light out on the podium in front of him that he could say lit up whenever Biden’s wire was talking to him. He could then have it blinking on and off throughout the “debate”.
