He is also a lifelong, diagnosed stutterer. Of course, he had lots of speech therapy as a kid (and maybe since; who knows?). That can be improved with training, effort, and practice - but it never goes away.
For sure. He was never the most polished speaker. But the deterioration from 2020 to today is quite noticeable. I think it's tough to claim that he's super attractive to swing voters when he's calling Zalenskyy President Putin, or when he trails off without being able to return to his point.
I friggin hated him 20 years ago. I was so pissed the day Obama picked him for VP, because I despised him. Danoff encouraging people to vote for Biden was not on my bingo card. Anyway, I think folks are right to question whether he can win this election based on his decline.
I've lived near Delaware almost all my life. I don't need any lessons on hating him.
Biden was so vanilla in 2020 that Trump had trouble bullying him and making criticisms stick. He campaigned well against Trump's particular style, because he gave nothing for Trump to latch on to. Much of the republican campaign was centered on making whoever Trump was up against look like an insane liberal bent on communism or something. Biden was just very difficult to get people scared of. That's why he worked well in 2020.
There's a few guesses that they over-prepared him, but ultimately, his voice being very low & coarse and fumbling over his words didn't do his presentation any favors and that's what people are remembering. I think ultimately, even in the speaking appearances/interviews since, he hasn't been as bad as his debate night, but he's still showing signs of fumbling his words.
Well, not that room. Like splashing water on someone in the pool and thinking they'll get wetter.Trump's speech summed up.
Unity was "Stop trying to hold me accountable for crimes in court". Everything else was him literally saying the same thing he's said at every single rally from Hannibal Lecter to powerful, thick, hard runways. It was nothing more than xenophobia fear mongering, & declaring himself as the only man who can save the country and the world b/c he can solve any war, any issue with just a phone call.

Supporters Arrive at Republican Convention Wearing Diapers, Out of Respect for Donald Trump — The Shovel
“We’ve been standing here in our diapers, ******** our pants, throwing tantrums, whining about petty little gripes that have hurt our feelings. We just want to make Trump feel at home"
I thought the main thing that screwed Trump over was how poorly he handled COVID and the chain of reactions after George Floyd which peaked right before the election?
Has he ever turned face since his racist scandal? His "apology" was more about getting caught than what he actually said...Hollywood Hogan has form for significant heel turns.
