The senility angle was always stupid on the Trump campaign's part, because all they really accomplished was ensuring that if Biden could remember his own damned name he'd clear the bar they had set.
The "Biden is Antifa" angle might have been even more stupid, given that the country is utterly familiar with Biden and nobody's buying that.
A remarkable feature of this campaign has been the Trumpers' complete inability to figure out an effective attack on Biden so far. Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.
And not only did he not display senility but from every poll since the debate, he appears to have won the debate easily in the eyes of voters. Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.
For a long time they were wondering why the Trump campaign is not using it, or why the media was not commenting on it, since it was so obvious. Or even if DNC knew about it when they made him the candidate?
The same circles figured that during the debate Trump did not give Biden enough time to be incoherent and forget where he was, or for what office he was running for. Even if Trump's advisors told him to allow Biden room for gaffes, he just doesn't have it in him to stand back and not interrupt when his opponent is making a mistake.
Biden's strongest moments in the debate were the moments in which he was allowed to talk directly to the public, so while those folks may figure Trump made a mistake there, Trump's strategy to try to create a shitshow and muddy the waters probably wasn't a bad one. But, being Trump and having no self-control, he obviously went overboard with it. Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to your country.
