2020 Presidential Election thread

Biden’s first answer made no sense.

Took Trump less than 5 minutes to start interrupting and going on the attack.

Biden just laughing at him is pretty effective so far.

I just turned that channel on and it's a hot mess lol

Trump getting really annoyed Biden won't take the bait.

Chris Wallace wondering why in hell he agreed to moderate this.

Chris Wallace going to go hook himself into an IV alcohol drip

They need to just cancel the other 2. That was a waste of everyone’s time. 

Did anyone expect last night to be anything but a shit show?

I kinda hoped it would have been better. My own fault, I guess.

The whole world has to be laughing at us

I mean, Biden was the only person Dems thought could beat Trump?!?  I thought Biden was fine, when he was actually able to speak.

On a related note, though Biden was not nearly as aggressive about it, what Trump did was basically an identical approach to how Biden bullied Paul Ryan in the 2012 VP debate.  And CNN gushed about how strong and commanding he was!

The clown act aside, IMO Trump debated himself to a draw.  You can't just bait, you gotta set the hook!

Drudge nails it: "Strategy to tweet out loud for 90 minutes"  LOL

It somehow seemed worse. All 3 of them were idiots. 

Who won the debate tonight?

Those that didn’t watch it.

America, good Lord is this really our two “best” options?

First off, to even think that Trump is a tax cheat is stupid.  To somehow value someones Americanism by how much they let the government steal from them is really strange.

He knows he is getting audited, stupid to think he was hiding something.  All he does is take advantage of the loopholes that Biden likely voted for over the last half century.  

As for the debate:

1.  Biden is raising taxes

2.  Biden is going to have a problem with the Bernie bros and AOC by slamming the left.

3.  Trump needs  anew debate tactic.  He is an idiot when it comes to baiting Biden.  

4.  A draw is a win for the incumbent.  

I watched it.

I don’t understand all the encouraging to go vote. Well, I don’t understand it in 2020, anyways. Most people don’t care for either of these guys but there’s still the strong insistence to go vote.

What's not to understand? It's been happening every election for as long as I've been alive.

As for the debate. This morning I'm wondering how/why I sat through the entire thing.
