I wish it were so, but he's holding it together. To understand how the low info swing voter absorbs this, turn off the volume. Or leave it on, but zone out the words. Try to focus on vibes only. And that is not great for those who wish to save democracy.

Few low-info swing voters will see any of this debate, and none will remember any of it by August.

What we want is Trump to start scowling and raving and getting red-faced with anger. He's.....not doing that. He can stand there saying "windmills kill newborns because feminism" and it will wash over people as long as he doesn't seem unhinged in his affect.

We're going to lose our democracy because Biden has a cold and a stutter. Dear God.
