Well, "black jobs" and " the blacks" is trending on Twitter with much confusion,disgust,and hilarity about what is a "black job".
Stating that black people or "the blacks" as he likes to call them work the menial low paying jobs that undocumented people work, such as field work is not sitting well at all. If he thought that would help gain voters, it seems to have backfired.
Again we need age limits on candidates. 65 should be the upper limit.

Seems to be the consensus on social media, this was a setup.

The lies Trump choose to tell are presented in the article and fact check.
As to Biden, he was a complete disaster indeed.
Be stupid to argue otherwise.
Hence i will ask once again what is it you imagine they had him hopped up on?

It was interesting to see Biden stumble so badly right there.
Trump was talking about the 'black vote' and "Black Americans" referring to the demographic group. Biden turned around responded with "the blacks" referring to African Americans directly as a racial segment, and "black jobs" is if he was speaking directly to them. The "black jobs" comment even raised my eyebrows; that was especially bad. Even though what they were saying was similar, Biden's remarks came off far more negatively, almost racist (not almost, straight-up).
That is a very difficult subject under any circumstances, and you have to choose your words carefully so it's clear you're referring to a demographic and not to the people directly. If you are unable to walk that razor's edge, then you should not weigh in at all. It was an exceptionally well crafted statement by Trump, and I'm sure one carefully rehearsed before hand. Biden had very little maneuvering room to respond to Trump's statement and Trump had him backed into a corner. You could see the Biden team's coaching in Biden's response (i.e. be aggressive, fight, fight, fight), and so Biden did, but his words came out all wrong. At this point it was clear Trump had Biden on the ropes, and was repeatedly delivering the "Rope-a-dope-dope" on Biden. He was finished.
I think you need to have a better understanding of what a lie is.
Saying something that is untrue or exaggerated is not a lie - I often see Trumps obvious hyperbole couched as lies.
Lefties like to make lists.
I can tell you what was 100% a lie... Biden repeating the 'very fine people hoax' when just this very week even Democrats have walked away from it and it being mainstream news that Trump actually condemned the Nazi's at Charlottesville.
As for Trump, he looked healthy and sounded lucid and strong.
No reason to suspect he was anything.
Biden was clearly drugged up.
In the end it didn't matter, Trump won the debate by some distance.

Again the article you were presented with clearly outlines the lies falsehoods, hyperbole, half-truths, and deflection, Trump choose to punt.
However 4 posts now and you have still failed to answer the simple question you were asked.
What drug is it you imagine Biden was hopped up on?
Because it obviously did not work.
I have agreed with you that even though Biden was drugged up, it didn't work.
How would I know which cocktail of drugs they had him on?
