He stepped down because he came off badly during his debate with Trump.

He really didnt.

Nobody who saw that debate that wasn't already guzzling down propaganda thought trump did well

Trump never did well, Biden still came off badly. It's the old double standard - Clinton gets impeached for a blowjob, meanwhile pedo island gets a pass. Democratic candidates have to be super-human smart, educated, informed - but others just have to be "relatable."

Biden is not a great public speaker, and not a great debator.

But yea, double standard,.
