C-Span has suspended Steve Scully for lying about this Twitter feed being hacked, after he accidently Tweeted Scaramucci for advice on how he should respond to Trump.

I’m in Vegas, so I didn’t watch either town hall.

But based on Twitter it seems like Donny’s was a hot dumpster fire.

TRUMP just wrapped his town hall and the new news we got was:

1) He most definitely did NOT follow the testing requirements for the 1st debate

2) He definitely DOES owe $421 million & paid $750 in fed income tax

3) He will NOT disparage the domestic terror threat, QAnon

Just saw the Biden townhall on Youtube.
What a snorefest. Biden is asked softball
after softball and he rambles on and on
and on. Very hard for your attention not
to wander off. It was 30 min too long,
should have been an hour not 90 min.
Remember the Energizer Bunny
commercial where he's playing a drum
slower and slower and finally stops
because his battery is dead? That was
Biden in the last 30 min. He looked
and sounded like a wilting flower,
like he was fighting exhaustion. He'll
be 78 next month, who wouldn't be
exhausted. Rambling and rambling,
stringing disconnected thoughts
together, like grandpa at Sunday
dinner.

No hard questions, absolutely no
mention of the Ukraine scandal.
A real kid gloves fluff job yawner.

I didn't watch either channel, but softball questions are what I was expecting.

You would think, if you were participating in a one person interview organized by your own team, that you wouldn't be asked questions that you would have to dodge, and give lies answers.

Pleasantly surprised that trump got the latter treatment.

From last night, this is Crazy Joes
platform:

8-year-olds should be allowed to decide they are transgender

Police should shoot criminals in the leg.

Hire workers in fracking industry to cap wells

Raise taxes to invest in “green infrastructure' (Green Raw Deal)

Solar and wind power will save Pennsylvania (In CA this it's reality and they have rolling blackouts)

Give all first-time home buyers $15,000 (free money, not a loan)

Packing the Court might be OK.

His team has promised the Biden admin will
be everybody from the Obama admin,
except Obama himself. So we can get back
to the 'New Normal' that was so wonderful.
Hillary lost because this was what she
promised. Only the New NEW Normal
will be led by Heels Up Harris. How could
you not vote for a deal like this.

Sleepy Joe beats Trump in debate ratings.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

I think most people feel like they already know Trump and have made up their minds on him. The general public knows very little aout Biden so some are watching.

Bingo. Rush predicted yesterday
Biden would get a bigger audience
because Trump is a known and
Biden isn't. Biden has been mostly
in hiding, Trump is everywhere all
the time. And lots of people watched
on the Right to see how Biden
would handle questions about
Ukraine. Rush predicted there would be
be no such questions and he was
correct.
