97. After the Hurr report...

He gave a "fiery" response about his mental acumen and confused his sons Beau and Hunter.

It wasn't a one shot thing. He was having trouble for a long time.

The entire reason why the debate was so disastrous was because it affirmed the framing that existed. He had been being handled by consultants and advisors and the only thing that got him out of that bubble was Nancy Pelosi "doing things the easy way or the hard way."
