    In both the debate and the convention, all he had to do to secure a win was to exercise a little discipline and act presidential. He couldn't do it.

      Yeah, but also the crowd in front of him was rally-like. I’ll bet if he was talking just to a camera he would have stayed more on script.

        Oh, I think he won the debate, hands down. The debate is what broke the media silence on Biden and what will lead to his ouster. Either voluntarily or through the 25th Amendment.

          I don't think he won the debate but squandered a golden opportunity. No one won that mess.

          The fallout for the Biden campaign just shows his party's values, or lack thereof.

            The thing is he's not a good speaker, although I'm sure he thinks he is. It was a droning, unoriginal, lazy waste of time. He said nothing surprising or revelatory or even seriously emotional about the shooting and offered up nothing we haven't heard before about platform.

            +1, and even when he’s trying to commend others, it comes across as self aggrandizing.

              If I'm honest, I think this is the root of why I can't stand him. He just never fucking shuts up about how awesome he is. Clearly he's got some kind of problem. Now far be it from me, as an on-line doctor, to make a formal diagnosis, but I think he's probably a complete dickhead, if you'll forgive the technical terminology.

              I was only joking

                I agree, but here’s the weird thing. He is genuinely well liked by a bunch of people that don’t really need to put up with dickheads. I don’t get that..

                  Easy.

                  He's not a dickhead. Not totally.

                    I find it trivially easy to not hate Trump. But if he triggers your disgust reaction, your hatred of the guy is just inevitable. Humans don’t rationalize around disgust, they just go with it.

                    Education is extremely important.

                      Sadly, we can’t all be as rational and rooted in logic as Trump’s supporters clearly are.
