June 28 (Reuters) - A group of U.S. voters who were unable to choose between Joe Biden and Donald Trump before Thursday’s presidential debate delivered their verdicts after the contest and it was almost universally bad news for Biden.

Of the 13 “undecideds” who spoke to Reuters, 10 described the 81-year-old Democratic president’s performance against Republican candidate Trump collectively as feeble, befuddled, embarrassing and difficult to watch.

    I’m sorry, but if you went into the debate not knowing who to vote for where the fuck have you been for eight years?

    And to come out the other side saying, “yea the orange lunatic lied to my face about everything , but on the other hand Biden looked kind of tired and stumbled on his words. I think I’ll vote for the convicted felon.”, I mean, are we humans really just this stupid?

      Yes, yes we are. I feel your pain. I said it before and I’ll say it again: I would personally vote for a corpse, but it’s not me you have to convince.

      And if I want to be slightly more kind and less impatient, many humans may mean well, but are so woefully uneducated and uninformed that they fall prey for the mass amount of right-wing misinformation from billions of dollars injected into the media-stream.

      This is what happens when you try to substitute undecided voters for your progressive base. It’s always been a dumb, high-risk strategy, but it’s the only way neoliberals can put off being phased out.
