Stuart Stevens, a former Republican strategist who left his party after its embrace of Donald Trump, doesn't merely think the former president had a bad debate night.
Rather, he thinks that Trump had a debate so bad that it should disqualify him from ever holding public office again.
Writing on X, Stevens recounted past debates in which two former presidents -- George W. Bush and Barack Obama -- performed poorly, but he argued that neither of those performances compared to the one that Trump delivered.
