stumble mumbling your way through an entire debate

I think that's an exaggeration. 85% of the time what he said was correct and made sense. He got flustered a few times and babbled. I ideally want a president that doesn't do that very often, but I HATE the idea that if you misspeak then you're incompetent. I can DO things much better than I can describe them.

Yes, most likely you can, doesn't change that not being able to describe them well is going to make others question if you're the right choice to be in charge.

Yeah, it's ableist bullshit, no, calling that out on everyone who's worrying is not gonna help.
