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.
Unfortunately the title makes it sound like they’re talking about undecided voters in general, when the story is about a specific group of people that were interviewed.
Reading that article felt like I had fallen for a bait and switch.
(edit: “Clickbait and switch”? Is that a thing?)
Yeah my mom bought into the narrative. I was telling her what a disaster the debate was and of course she doesn’t want to accept that.
So she latched onto headlines like this one.
