There he goes again, talking about those horrible bald eagle killing machines. AKA, windmills.
Bet he doesn't know that many of those things have sensors to stop them in case of a flock of birds or a ufo in the vicinity. Oh and they have predator warnings and bird calls to keep animals and birds away.

That and many of them are located in areas where you are unlikely to find eagles.

Oh and birds are not as stupid as him.
 
Huge mistake from Biden.

"It doesn't matter what you pay them" in relation to the oil industry.

And Trump capitalised. That'll hit hard in Texas etc.

Was thinking that. Biden had got his point across already re renewable energy. He didn't need to go further and start talking about closing up the oil industry.
 
I think he did a fair bit of harm to himself there... hope I'm wrong, or if I'm right I hope it doesn't reflect in the polls.
The Sky journo saying about whether Biden has the ‘mental capacity’ to do the job now.
I’m sure the US coverage is totally different.
 
A few areas where I think Biden messed up.

1 - Very weak on his past record. Whenever Trump challenged him on his 8 years in office as VP, he had no answer and looked totally flummoxed, allowing Trump to do what he does best; paint himself as the anti-establishment candidate despite being the incumbent.

2 - His tinned responses were worryingly flat and offputting. Again, nobody will believe what he's saying because they've heard it before. Trump is obviously factually wrong on nearly everything, but he speaks with an impetus and belief; Biden does on rare occasions when he's off script and angry, which is actually when he's at his best.

3 - The oil industry comments... eek. Any chance of Texas has probably just gone, as campaign ads for Trump should make mincemeat out of him now. Ohio is now a big doubt too.

4 - He somehow lost to Trump on the coronavirus section. That should have been impossible, but he came across as a "Captain Hindsight" politician.

He did well on immigration, got better generally as the thing progressed but overall lost it handily.
