WD is spot on that Trump is annoying.He annoys a majority of voting Americans.
He is a coddled New York elitist Blowhard.And an unbelievable liar.
His act has run thin and people have had enough of it and him.The majority will appreciate a "sleepier" president.It's like an over filled ballon about to pop and people want a little decompression.
People on this board are die hard Trumpers.They are ignoring the obvious that they are not close enough this time to pull off another 2016.

To me and obviously I'm not alone in this opinion, this is not a personality contest. I would absolutely change Trump's personality if that were an option but it isn't. So what do I do? I make my decision on policy of course because personality isn't a deciding factor for me.
And on policy, OMG! There may never have been in my lifetime at least, two people at the very opposite ends of the political spectrum.
I've heard people say as no doubt you have and may also say, that they would vote for Biden even if he was senile and would be "less good" for the economy. They would make that "sacrifice" because getting rid of the other guy is more important to them than even their wallet or literally opening the borders to anybody that wants to come in and give them all the benefits of social welfare on top of that.
So if that is the "cost" of electing Biden, that is a cost they are willing to pay.
Well, the cost I'm willing to pay to have Trump re-elected and keep Biden and BLM out of the White House, is that he is a boastful narcissist who bullies his opponents and interrupts people when they want to lie about him being responsible for "killing" 200,000 Americans.
I don't like to see people, both Trump and Biden, act they way they did. I also don't want to see America taken down the road that the Harris administration along with President Biden would take us. It's as simple as that. I thought watching this debate would be interesting but it was not and I won't be watching the next two because there is nothing to be learned about what policies these two men will take should they become President.
So, we can argue/ debate as to what we saw and whether we were embarrassed or thrilled that Trump did shake Biden up and Biden was babbling much of the night but he didn't have the full blown meltdown many Trump supporters were looking/ hoping for.
There is nothing more to be learned by watching this any more other than the choice we are about to make couldn't be any more starkly different. I knew that before the debate started.
Civility is not nor will it ever be for me, more important than decisions made about the economy and law and order that any society needs to function.
