To put tonight's debate in football terms, Trump needed a big turnover and score

Unlike the Falcons in their Superbowl against the Pats, Joe Biden knows what to do with a big lead late in the game. Don't turn the ball over (make a huge gaffe). Keep possession of the ball and keep scoring. Don't give Trump any opportunity to get back into the game.

You either believe in Trump's "alternative fact" world or Joe's fact based world. It doesn't move the needle much. But Joe just need to do no harm and he achieved it.

Trump didn't get any touchdowns tonight, and Biden got several first downs.
