14. The only hole in Joe's skillset:
Fri Jul 19, 2024, 01:25 PM
Jul 2024

He's used to debating old-school politicians who take turns and follow the rules and make points formally. He is not used to shouting down someone interrupting with lies in real time.

He's a seasoned professional politician who's just not accustomed to contemporary social media sniping and those who smother their lack of substance with logical fallacy.
