They were zoning out on Netflix, et al.

They might see snippets or hear talking heads drone on, but generally they weren't watching.

I agree that most people have already made up their minds.

I get the sense the Biden team knew this first debate wasn't going to go well..and this was their template for fine tuning the campaign/the ads/and the October debate...they now know exactly how to deal with the Trump vomit...
