    I just turned it off as Biden is annoying me no end with his redundant remarks. Plus, I am tired and going to bed.

    There was a Biden campaign commercial today with Biden talking about how Trump's plans would empty the "Social Security Trust Account." Reminded me of Al Gore's "Social Security Lock Box."

    Just noticed Biden's walk off, carrying his bundle of notes. Trump... no notes.

    Biden approaching his 50th year in government (in 2023), and Trump just finishing his first term...yet Biden is the one needing crib notes.

    Glad I turned it off and twice as glad I did not hear Biden's Hitler remark.

    Thus far, it seems that a major portion of the media is giving the debate to the President.
    Even Megan Kelly, who was so vehemently opposed to Donald Trump during his 2016 campaign gave him a 95%.

    Biden talks like the tired old man he is.

    I agree; he looks very frail to me. Of course, he's simply the vehicle for Kamala so he has to hang in the basement for a few more months.

    I just watched a video, and it shows Biden walking off-stage with his handful of notes, then an aide comes back and gets a large iPad from his podium. Wonder why he had an iPad ? Could he have been getting messages (or FaceTime ?) telling him what to say ?

    If you look at the c-span video, at the very end, you can see Joe and Jill get his notes and walk offstage, then the other lady comes out and gets whatever it is that looks like an ipad.
    Here is a screenshot, but it is better to watch it on the video.

    If Biden were to become president, I wouldn't doubt that the Democrats might lead the charge to have him removed. In that way, they'd get the Kamala that they want and they'd be able to posture as being willing to go after their own in order to be sure that law and order prevails.
