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.

    If “hey look at this poll of left handed middle income women in swing states, Trump is ahead 86 points” is bullshit

    Then “this one focus group of 8 Hispanic voters thought Biden did great, time to stop worrying” is also bullshit

    Wait to see the polls. I am anticipating them showing some loss for Biden because the average American would rather have a vigorous insurrectionist running the country, than a visibly old person with good policy ideas. I would love to be shown proof that I am wrong in that but this isn’t it. I think Biden’s great, but he does still have to win the election, and the debate wasn’t a good showing for him, and one little focus group doesn’t change that and doesn’t justify the broad sweeping headline here.
