who ever was responsible for his debate prep is also bigtime at fault. - Jovian Jun 28, 10:46
apparently he also had a cold all week (which . . . maybe say that before the debate?) -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 28, 10:43
How is that possible? That's the super bowl, he's a career politician. -- nm - colin Jun 28, 10:43 10
- because HE IS NOT up to the task. Republicans are right about that one thing. -- nm - Jovian Jun 28, 10:47 9
  - I think he's up to the job, but not debates. He understands the issues and can make decisions. Debating is totally different. And really this isn't - pmb Jun 28, 10:58
  - I think he's fine as president. The appointees in his administration are what are making change, I doubt he makes much policy. -- (edited) - colin Jun 28, 10:54 7
    - he’s been president for ~3.5 years, and he’s not all that different than he has been. he’s a ceo/cob who picked a good executive leadership team. - i.b.! Jun 28, 10:59

      - Absolutely. Read up on Project 2025. They've written their playbook and it's terrifying. John Oliver did a great piece on it. -- nm - pmb Jun 28, 11:00
    - none of the legislation he did get passed would have gotten across the finish line without his dealmaking experience. another underrated skill - hollywood big shot Jun 28, 10:58
    - He's been an excellent POTUS, and his assembled team is the best of my lifetime. -- nm - David Jun 28, 10:58 2
      - he has been great. But last night was a death knell. -- nm - Jovian Jun 28, 12:10
      - I've said this before, but he is the most effective president of my adult life. It just gets lost in all the screaming. -- nm - pmb Jun 28, 11:01
