I actually thought Trump's response/dodge on this issue was the most disciplined we've seen Trump and the best retort he could give. I don't expect it will win over any Democrats (no one is switching sides at this point) but it did blunt the attack. He took Biden's biggest attack line and redirected it to Biden's weakest points. Obvious product of debate prep and coaching to redefine the public's associations of January 6th.
It was disciplined for sure, but unfortunately for Trump... and as with Biden, it's to get the Swing Voters. They are people who legitimately want to hear Trump's plans on everything... and all Trump for the first part did well but then Trump got flustered because 90 mins for him is a long time... so he just attacked Biden non-stop about being the worse president ever... and not caring much child care costs or opioids... and I think the biggest thing that shocked Independents from maybe staying away... is Trump talked about his golf-game... and for the 50+... it just brought back memories of W.
