I understand the media are all atwitter about last night’s entertainment featuring Biden and Trump. Although entertainment is probably not the right word. Perhaps it’s ‘drama.’
Earl and I watched about twenty minutes before deciding a good book would be a better use of our time. In that brief period, what I saw was two old men, one who lies and the other who appeared distracted.
I refused to read opinion pieces about each person’s performance this morning, although I’ve heard that this group said Biden won while that group said Trump won. Regardless of which camp you are in, this “debate” probably didn’t sway you to join the other.
I look at it this way: No matter who wins, our country just has to get past the next four years; because neither man will be eligible to run again. Perhaps younger talents will then prevail.
However, if I look at the team Biden has surrounded himself with versus Trump’s team when he was president, I am struck with the contrast. One man, whether you like his policies or not, seems to have hard-working, knowledgeable people in place. The other, when he was president, had a variety of future felons.
It’s something to think about.
