I think you can do a lot better than he did, any of us could. Just look at the transcript here. ctrl+f for "golf". You're gonna tell me you don't have a better response than Biden here?

I'm just gonna come up with 5 things right now Biden could've said:

  • "I don't think the American people care how good my opponent's golf game is. They care if he can run the country, and as you can tell from his answer he doesn't even remember what that involves."
  • "Again with the cognitive tests. No one asked whether you took a cognitive test Donald. But if you wanna brag about it, at least release them to the public so we can see if you actually passed."
  • "I think everyone's seen enough from both of our 4 years in the white house - they can see I'm focused on the economy and foreign policy, while he was focused on golf as he still is."
  • "I'll fully concede that he's a better golfer than me. After all, he spent so much of his last administration practicing."
  • "This guy claims he won two club championships at the age of 82? Does anyone seriously believe that? This guy is delusional folks."

Instead Biden talked about his height (which he didn't mention) and challenged him to a driving contest. WTF. I recognize how bad this would've sounded before yesterday, but literally any random person we pick from this thread has better odds than Biden at this point.

Trump did absolutely horribly. His answers can be fairly described as completely and transparently delusional. But Biden managed to make him look good.
