Our View: Donald Trump the bully and Joe Biden the acceptable stressed to Americans that the United States is infected with more than COVID-19.

For Democrat Joe Biden, the task was to present himself as an acceptable alternative for anyone turned off by President Donald Trump.

Biden has spent his lengthy career being just that: acceptable, nothing extraordinary, but not too hot, not too cold; not too hard, not too soft; not too liberal, not too conservative.

He sidestepped the issue of whether he would try to pack the Supreme Court in retaliation for Republicans ramming through a replacement for the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. His description of his own environmental plan was barely coherent. He allowed himself to be drawn into name-calling, referring to the president as a "clown" at one point. In a normal debate, he might have been deemed the loser. .

Former Vice President Joe Biden debates President Donald Trump on Sept.

Trump came in to Cleveland thinking that his job was talk over Biden whenever the former vice president was speaking. The effect was like an adolescent bully in a lunchroom cafeteria harassing people just to draw attention to himself. His outbursts were studded with nonsensical statistics and outright lies.

To that end, after the debate his handlers touted his line that under Trump "we have become weaker, sicker, poorer, more divided and more violent." We suspect that another Biden line — "Will you shut up, man!" — will prove to be more enduring. 

This was not the presidential debate that Trump needed to catch up with poll-leading Biden
