Neither man was as demented as their portrayed them to be, but Trump's energy and apparent health will carry some weight with the 'still persuadables'. They're obviously not undecided because of fact-checking.

The unfortunate thing is that the elections are already a fail ever since Trump was put on the ballot. Thus, debating Trump is like when a scientists debates an AIDS denier in public - it not only gives limelight to the insanity but it makes it look credible. I mean, Trump told some of the most demented lies (like post birth abortion) but they're claiming that Biden is demented.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

This is the best both parties have to offer. What a mess.

To be honest, if T****y wasn't given so much lattitude to lie, meander around topics, and basicly ignore questions that didn't suit him for either being too complicated for his addled brain to parse or too likely to show him in a bad light, he would've come off a lot worse.
But Biden played the whole debate very badly. Even over above the mumbling and the low energy, he was far too defensive and willing to let T****y steer the topics.
