Not trying to spam my own shit, but Biden just finished speaking in NC, and he's YELLING AND FIGHTING AND PUNCHING and his old Joe self. I NEEDED THIS TODAY. Starts 9 minutes in (they've clipped it): https://www.wonkette.com/p/joe-biden-talking-right-now-not-even
Good President had a bad night is still much better than a Bad Former President having a good night though riddled with lies. "Debates" with two minute answers, are the most ridiculous way to choose the leader of the free world. In reality, the POTUS may be the one making final decisions on actions to take, but he / ("she" in the future) is surrounded by a team of experts, each with particular knowledge and specific views in certain areas. A true issues-oriented debate would be a team of each candidate's advisors stepping up to respond to specific questions. Perhaps "debates" should be scheduled over a week-long period, with each night dedicated to a specific topic or two. Inflation is way too complex to be answered in two minute sound bites. Same with immigration, Israel, Ukraine, and any other issue worthy of discussion.
