      Trump is an incoherent idiot. You guys are the ones claiming that Biden isn't.https://twitter.com/samstein/status/1319628403411197954 …

      Wait till they see what a google search of “Donald Trump clarifies” brings up. (I say this as someone who thought Biden stepped in it with his comment last night. But cmon now) https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1319626921349701635 …

      I don’t think either men are incoherent idiots. But they do often misspeak.

      In general, I try to be more forgiving when they briefly or accidentally indicate a position that’s not just in conflict with their prior stated plan but would take enormous effort to actually carry out if they meant it.

      So in Trump’s case, imputing he’ll eliminate all payroll taxes and starve social security because he said something vague that got cleaned up. In Biden’s case banning all fracking based on a passing line when he has an actual quite specific fracking plan.

      The flip side of that is that people also say Biden is a moderate based on stuff he says, on the grounds that you should ignore his actual platform.

          His platform on climate is a really big deal! I find it very confusing that so many of the attacks are on things that aren’t in it and annoy fact checkers when it’s asking for a pretty major transformation of the economy just on its own.

          Similarly with health care, the dominant attack is “You will pass Medicare for All,” which is fine but also bears no relationship to his actual plan which might legitimately pass as stated and has lots of provisions to argue over.
