Biden: Expect him to do well in the debate

Everyone, including Trump supporters, should expect Biden to perform well in the debates. He did better than most expected in the previous debates and always comes in juiced up for big moments.

We should set high expectations for Biden, expect them, and see if he can achieve them. The incumbent should be expected to perform well in the debates. As the nation's leader, people look to him to articulate his vision for the future, defend his record, and present clear plans for addressing the country's challenges. Moreover, given the importance of these debates in shaping public opinion, there's pressure on him to perform well, mainly if perceived vulnerabilities exist in his administration's policies or actions.

I expect Biden to do well and will see if he can meet the standard. His team has done an excellent job getting him to exceed expectations in the past. My expectations will be a high bar to achieve.

That does not mean I’m a Biden supporter, believe he wins the debate, or is the right choice for this country.
