This argument about how few people actually watched The Debate (~50M isn't small) is nonsense because people are seeing clips on social media. And these clips make it look even worse.

I'm not on Facebook, but my wife is. Just yesterday, in a group about raising chickens, there was a post about "chicken math" (if you've owned chickens, you may be familiar with the phenomenon) featuring a clip of a confused and frail looking Joe Biden from The Debate. No policy, no substance, nothing to help Joe; only the notion that you should either laugh at him or feel pitty for him. This is the impression I'm concerned about.
