        Calling a spade a spade would at least include the mention that Trump didn’t answer a single question. All he did was ramble; I could stomach 3 questions and I cannot tell from the answer if Trump understood any of them

          Article about the performance of Biden and the Democrats response

          But But it’s unfair because they didn’t talk about Trump! This is exactly why we are in this mess to begin with.
