But I was told that all Biden's answers were completely incoherent? You're telling me that the media is making a big deal out of a few moments in the debate?! That's never happened before!

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Headlines about the Biden stumbling over his words and being difficult to hear have not stopped since he and Trump went head-to-head in the first 2024 presidential debate in Atlanta.
One man said he would vote for Biden because "Trump sounded like a crazy liar," according to Matt A. Barreto, professor of Political Science and Chicana/o & Central American Studies at UCLA.
His growing popularity among Latinos, as well as with other minority groups like Black Americans, is often cast as a surprise given his rhetoric about Mexican migrants.
When it came to the topic of immigration in Thursday's debate, Trump said, among other things: "There have been many young women murdered by the same people he allows to come across our border.
Trump and Biden made reference to a recent headline-making case in which two Venezuelan men, who entered the U.S. illegally, were arrested on suspicion of killing a 12-year-old Houston girl whose body was found in a creek after she disappeared while walking to a shop.
Researcher economist Elisa Jácome concluded that "immigrants with lower levels of education today are significantly less likely to commit crimes than their U.S.-born counterparts."

War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength.
And to add something with more substance than straight eye rolling sarcasm, amazing that the non-english speakers loved his performance.
Lets get one of those translators on the ballot.
Pure copium.
...really? Hey, I'll take it!
