I have COVID right now. If I took an adderall, I’d perform higher than I could not having COVID.
The caveat is it’s really mild (I’ve had worse colds) and I’m also not in my 80’s lol.

if Biden comes out of this still with a decent chance of winning the election… what does that actually say about Trump?
Think on that.

My prediction .
The Left holds out little hope of winning in November .
They have their sites set on 2028 . Michelle Obama will run and hold office for 8 years effectively unopposed seeing as how no one could take her in an election .
Michelle will be 64 in 2028...and will be well into male menopause by then.

You have to take adderall for over a week (about the same amount of time Biden was prepping for this debate) before it even begins to take effect.

That’s totally not the case.
The generic name for it is salt amphetamines.
I assure you that you would know you’ve taken one within 30 minutes to an hour.
The only way you’d need to take it and build up levels is if you’re actually one of the real people with ADHD. Because it has the opposite effect and can calm you down, but that’s incredibly rare.
If you’re an average person taking it for the stimulant effects, you’ll feel the first dose. And depending on the quantity you likely won’t eat or sleep that day.

The thing about it is, what Biden was trying to say was for the most part decent enough and I believe if he had of been able to articulate his arguments most people would’ve conceded that he at the very least did a reasonable job.
But, as everyone saw that’s not what happened. He did very poorly… I mean, the dude was stuttering from the very start when he came out and greeted the moderators and it only got mildly better from there… it was an embarrassingly poor performance, there’s no getting past that, everyone saw it.
Thing is though, considering how poorly Biden did in the debate, if Biden comes out of this still with a decent chance of winning the election… what does that actually say about Trump?
Think on that.

I get that. But he said at least 3 times that people came out of the woods.
Just weird he would emphasize that. I have never heard that before and was wondering if that was an actual thing or if he was just saying crazy stuff.
Didn't the protest take place in a park? Near a statue? Where are the woods?
He acts like there are a bunch of Nazis in the woods. Lol

Campaign promises are just idle promises, it does not mean it will happen. Congressmen often promise they are going to do something when in fact they know introducing a bill to do it will fail. Then they blame it's failure on the opposite party most times. I feel they just make it appear they are trying to do things but it is just a political ploy, a hollywood production.

Yes, both candidates said very little about the "how?" question going forward. Trump said (effectively) he was going to do the same thing (policy wise) he did in his previous term. Biden didn't have that luxury, so Biden just threw rocks, and trotted out a $10k 1st time homebuyer freebie (which amounts to less than zero in the current inflationary market).

While Trump certainly looks more viable, and he is likely to get more independent and swing voters after the debate, I don’t have more confidence in him over his first term just because he beat a senile man in an argument.

Yeah I saw Biden choke and it was frustrating. I also saw what he was trying to get across and it was honest and decent, you could clearly see the respect he has for the position.
Donald Trump on the other hand came across as a dodgy sales man with the gift of the gab.
