Yeah...those are the reasons Biden lost. He basically validated every claim that he was too old and senile to be President. Like, I don't know what your definition of winning is here, but being low energy and incoherent is generally considered a bad thing in a debate. You keep bringing up, "content," like there were objective, correct answers to the questions, but that's how quiz shows work, not debates. Debates are all about how you present yourself and your arguments, and Biden completely beefed it on both, while Trump was relatively poised and lucid. It was, by pretty much every metric, a stunning defeat.

Your argument is basically that debates are meaningless performances where no rational person should care about who "won". Which I suppose I agree with, but I don't consider it a good or even neutral thing. Political debates as they exist now are bad and should never be allowed to happen, because all they do is allow the loudest asshole to look good while distracting voters from anything that matters.
