One thing to remember is they didn't have notes, earpieces or teleprompters.

Trump just straight up rambled out a stream of bullshit, lies, and projection every time he had the mic. Biden was not only answering factually, but also had to counter bullshit. They were on the same stage but playing two completely different games.

And when the debate is analyzed down to "who was more truthful?", Biden slightly flubbing a fact/figure will be treated near equally to Trump straight up spewing out bullshit.

The problem is that most Americans don't care about the truth

Well, this American sure does and will be voting in November. Suggest everyone does the same.

I hope there's more of you than there are of them.

There are. The problem is getting them off their asses and out to vote.
