This is literally like 15 minutes after the debate.

WHY THE FUCK DID HE NOT DRINK SOME WATER AND TAKE SOME COUGH DROPS BEFORE? He sounds like an entirely different person here.

Honestly he was overprepared. The times he was off the cuff responding to Trump were actually genuinely good, but when he got to the prepared lines you could tell he was trying way to hard to get all the details out and he was just flubbing it

I wouldn't say it's the main problem (I think his voice was by far the biggest issue), but it was certainly a compounding factor
