There is always an incredible amount of fear-mongering and general negativity in the US media. This is especially so for politics.
Here is my unsolicited advice:
- Ignore the media including polls.
- If you are capable, then please do some canvasing.
- Vote and encourage those around you to vote.
In context, Biden had a bad debate night. He’s had plenty of good or excellent speeches, its just that no one notices and media doesn’t care when things go well. Got to get those clicks.
It seemed to me that Biden was just in a state of shock at how much bullshit was coming out of Trump’s mouth
I think you are right on that. That was at least part of it. Biden’s mistake was expecting it to be a debate and not whatever that event was.
That’s probably why they chose to go without a live audience. I don’t wanna get conspiratorial, but all this shit seems to coincidental to not be on purpose.

Really? You expected Trump to base his speech on facts?
That should have been expected from Trump. Biden should have memorized statistics to counter the predictable bullshit.
Not that memorizing stuff is important for the job but it would have been effective in the debate for viewers who just won’t fact check anything.
