one's debate performance. Do they think he'll wash down a whole bottle of Prevagen pills with a double espresso and a Red Bull chaser? And even if he were to be amped up on stimulants, how will that make Trump's debate performance worse? So then you have a debate between a guy who's talking too fast but makes sense anyhow because he's smart and knows his shit, and the other guy who babbles incoherently about sharks and windmills and thinks Obama is the president and Nancy Pelosi might be Hillary Clinton or Margaret Thatcher and covid can be cured by flu shots.
