"But lost in the hand wringing was Donald Trump’s usual bombastic litany of lies, hyperbole, bigotry, ignorance, and fear mongering. His performance demonstrated once again that he is a danger to democracy and unfit for office.”

“In fact, the debate about the debate is misplaced. The only person who should withdraw from the race is Trump.”

    I’ve yet to hear a good criticism of Biden that isn’t also true of Trump.

    Example?

    Has Biden tried to overturn the government?

    Edit: I see it now. Disregard the above.

      I think you’re taking it the wrong way. I understand it as “anything negative about Biden, is also true about Trump”

      • Biden is old, so is Trump
      • Biden struggles speaking cohesively, so does Trump
      • etc.

      That is a valid criticism of Trump that is not true for biden. What op said was that any valid criticism of biden would also be true for trump, not the other way around. So trump has all the bad stuff that biden has plus the whole traitor, convicted criminal, narcissistic cult leader thing
