"I don't walk as easily as I used to. I don't speak as smoothly as I used to. I don't debate as well as I used to. But I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong. I know how to do this job. I know like millions of Americans know -- when you get knocked down, you get back up. Folks, I give you my word as a Biden, I would not be running again if I didn't believe with all my heart and soul I can do this job." -- President Joe Biden
Biden speaks honestly to America about his debate performance, " I don't debate as well as I used to but I know what I do know, how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong. I know how to get things done. When you get knocked down, you get back up." pic.twitter.com/DcfaL0TUi0

Letters from an American
At the end of the evening, pundits were calling not for Trump"a man liable for sexual assault and business fraud, convicted of 34 felonies, under three other indictments, who lied pathologically"to step down, but for Biden to step down ... because he looked and sounded old. At 81, Biden is indeed old, but that does not distinguish him much from Trump, who is 78 and whose inability to answer a question should raise concerns about his mental acuity.
