      I don’t understand why any one Biden’s side thought this was a good idea. Biden has never been a good speaker I believe mostly due to his stutter. The only thing Trump knows how to do is talk he’s a damn salesman. I guess the hope was that Biden could string together some coherent sentences in order to hit back at Trump’s lies and tout his achievements. I just think putting your candidates weakest trait against the other candidates strongest trait was a stupid risky thing to do from the outset with limited positive potential.

          I think debates and townhalls are Biden’s best bet right now. He needs to show that it was just a bad night for him.

          And if it wasn’t just a bad night, it’ll spur action to find a viable replacement.
