Trump did not speak confidently.

He ignored the questions, he lied with abandon, and the moderators did nothing about it. Biden couldn't keep up with the flood of lies to refute it all.

Im quite sure Biden is capable of lying just as quickly and confidently but he is a better person than that. He actually came to debate, not spit in our faces by lying right to us.

Except your arguments against Biden easily apply, and more so, against trump. He is absolutely not all there, a mere three years younger, and certainly not competent (and absolutely corrupt on top of that.)

The simple answer is- people expect Republicans to be degenerates. They don't expect that of Democrats. It's nothing but a shitty double standard we've let dictate politics for decades.

Yep. There should be two weeks worth of articles at least stating as such.

Media should also question every Republican and ask if they support him staying in the race.

I swear some of the people on here only think you can be left wing if you want an 80% wealth tax of millionaires and are going to institute universal basic income.

Welcome to Lemmy.

The stupid average voter is barely even aware of anything, let alone one bad debate. They haven't had to think about Biden for four years. They won't even remember that come November if they ever did hear of it.

You're trading complacency and incumbency for a complete unknown. That's the dumbest fucking thing you can do, to put it lightly.

Yeah and give it two weeks and they'll all poll worse because the spin machine aimed at them.

People are deluded to think a fresh face is gonna be better than the incumbent.

Last save was insane. Kudos to that keeper.

Good. Everyone should want fair elections.

Don't even have to fork. Just contribute to servo.

So Biden got more votes compared to Bernie so thus was more popular.

Thanks for confirming this.

So Biden won because voters coalesced around him.

Thanks again for reinforcing that point.

So Biden won fair and square because more primary voters voted for him.

Thanks for reinforcing that point.
