I watched a bit of it. The whole DNC setup and logistics was bizarre and surreal. Looked like a SNL skit or something.
But as far as Joe’s part - he did fine. The debates will be harder but I suspect he may survive that as well.
I don’t think Biden is going to just lay down and die in front of the cameras and make it easy for Trump. Trump will need to knock him out. Shirley Trump can do that. I mean ... after all ... this is Joe Biden.
Biden will be predictably ornery in the debates, all fire and no substance just like what he did with Paul Ryan. Trump needs to expect this and counter it, it's very predictable because Joe can not be lucid and provide substance.
Trump will need to knock him out. Shirley Trump can do that.Of course Trump can.
And don't call him Shirley.
Trump’s challenge, as he tends to opine himself, is to get his points across but keep Biden talking as much as possible to put his illness on display (can we get a non-dementia disclosure?). Biden was spared in the primaries because there were lots of other yappt candidates to divide and limit his speaking time and allow him max respite to gather his mind. Plus Biden has deteriorated even further since then. And Covid gives an out for him to stay underwraps. If Hillary had has this kind of cover and inexposure, she might well have one.
