His voice was soft and raspy, and he repeatedly tried, and failed, to clear his throat. His answers, at times, were rambling, and at one point he froze up. At another, he began an answer on, before suddenly segueing into immigration. When Trump spoke, Biden often watched with his mouth agape and eyes flared wide — a split screen that gave off the impression of the aging grandfather that he is, not the swashbuckling leader he hoped to project.
“Biden had a very low bar going into the debate and failed to clear even that bar,” Castro wrote on X. “He seemed unprepared, lost, and not strong enough to parry effectively with Trump, who lies constantly.”
