If Joe had done well in the debate, it wouldn't have been a discussion.

The Bidens are blaming everyone else for something that fell squarely on Joe's shoulders: his performance in the most important debate of his career. And he shit the bed. And that's the fault of the messaging?

And now the Bidens are saying we should have all just shut up and gotten in that shit-covered bed with him..?

That's nuts.
