A group of undecided Latino voters said they would vote for President Joe Biden after watching his Thursday night debate with former President Donald Trump.

A clip posted on X shows the group being interviewed by a journalist. One man said he would vote for Biden because “Trump sounded like a crazy liar,” according to Matt A. Barreto, professor of Political Science and Chicana/o & Central American Studies at UCLA.

The man being interviewed said Trump “said the same thing time after time” and was not answering questions or “saying how he would fix things,” according to a Newsweek translation.

He went on to admit that “Biden was indeed a bit slow in talking,” saying the president “has a stutter” but believes Biden explained "what he has done and what he is still doing while president.

“After being undecided for a little while, I think today, I switched to Biden,” he added.

    I guess I’m a cynic - I didn’t expect anyone not already convinced that Trump was a liar to be convinced by his usual performance. But I guess most people don’t spend their time chewing their fingers down to the bone religiously watching political developments like some of us do.

    Probably healthier for them.

      I opened lemmy a few days ago to check the news after taking a break for a few days.

      I hadn’t even read anything yet and I felt my adrenaline start.
