    Yes, because these debates are not won by whoever is more factual, they’re won by whoever has better rhetoric, which is why it’s such a fool’s errand for Biden to undertake it to begin with.

    People who vote based on facts aren’t going to learn anything new watching this debate, this is a circus for low-information voters who decide to vote based on “vibe”.

      And most people in that audience didn’t actually watch the debate live, but will have Biden’s biggest blunders blasted at them on repeat for the next 5 months.
