0 Dissenting view: Even *this* clip reinforces my impression that Petrified Zombie Biden (as featured here) is far more appealing than middle-aged Full Strength Boastful Biden. This Biden has seen it all! Has some wisdom … https://t.co/pYGcHyXNCF

0 Trump does say “You’re going to be very happy” to a questioner who asks for amnesty for Dreamers. Trump uses term “DACA” (“because I happen to agree with you.”) Could mean a lot of things … https://t.co/YfBdclX64G

0 Poverty rate & child poverty rate fell significantly in 2019-from 16.2% to 14.4% for children. Trump’s claim that things were going great until pandemic hit borne out by the stats https://t.co/oSUyfJXyMJ (Leaves open question of whether he’s in part responsible for the pandemic)
