Ever since I watched The Debate, I've had trouble getting my mind off it and into things I should be writing. Oh — and before I forget, I linked the other day here to the Washington Post fact-checker's fact-check on The Debate but there were so many false statements, he had to do a Part Two. Remember when Trump said "Many car companies came in from Germany, went to Michigan and went to Ohio"? Well, it turns out no car companies came in from Germany, went to Michigan and went to Ohio. There's a lot more of that and even some things Biden got wrong.
I am more and more buying into the theory, advanced elsewhere, that someone reminded Trump that Biden was once a stutterer and still occasionally has problems with it, and that Trump's main goal heading into The Debate was to harass and badger Biden into stuttering, thereby seemingly proving the smear that guys like Rudy Giuliani were spreading that Biden has serious dementia. Even Brit Hume of the Fox News Division — that's the news division, not the opinion division — was saying, pre-debate, that Biden was senile.
Okay, enough about that topic. I need to get my mind off it…though I am curious as to what the Commission on Presidential Debates will come up with when they say they'll be tinkering with the format of the remaining contests. Let's see…Trump will have to agree to any change and he'll say, "Why should I let them change the rules since I won so handily? They just want to help that loser, Sleepy Joe." He'll threaten to not appear if they change any rules but he's behind in the polls (and getting behinder) so he can't afford to lose those last two debates…very intriguing…
