Seems like Donny’s loyal 35% of cultists will love his combative performance. Everyone else will see it as a desperate man slinging mud at the grownup.

This is my only prediction:

Donny: *sniffle*


I’ll be the first to admit: I was wrong!

Didn’t notice any sniffles!

That’s about the best thing that can be said about Donny’s performance...

OMG
Wallace had to stop the debate and tell Trump his side agreed to the rules and therefore he must follow the rules

Trump is not good at following the rules.

Understatement. Trump is the rudest man I have seen in... ever?

I think Biden ‘won’ the debate, in that he looked energetic, and did not shit the bed. But it is hard to imagine a vote was changed.

I think that is the case for most debates.
People who care enough to watch and follow, generally already have their mind made up.

My thoughts on the debate:-- this is based on debate performance of POTUS, Biden and Wallace as moderator only and does not reflect policy positions of either candidate


I believe Biden performed much better than expected

I liked how Biden spoke to the people by looking directly at the camera and scored some points when he asked the American people how they feel seeing an empty chair at the breakfast table

I thought POTUS directed too much of his responses directly to Biden instead of the American people

Biden did not answer the Court packing question

Chris Wallace could not stifle his laughter when POTUS stated that nobody attends Biden events

Both Wallace and Biden using the tired old "fine people on both sides" misquote - ridiculous that the media still holds on to this since if you actually watch the speech you can clearly determine that POTUS was not discussing the white supremacists

POTUS had a gotcha moment re: Biden on the '94 crime bill

Biden stating POTUS looks down on Irish Catholics - well, he did just nominate Amy Coney Barrett

POTUS repeatedly interrupting was not a good look

Wallace asking POTUS to denounce white supremacists yet did not ask Biden to denounce ANTIFA/BLM

Biden bringing up the debunked "losers and suckers" scored points for him

Biden making Hunter's drug addiction relatable to Americans

Biden did not discuss how his record makes him qualified - he deflected to negative comments on POTUS

Biden stating the Green New Deal is not his plan could cost him some votes

POTUS bringing up the Obama administration spying was a good counter to Joe's statement re: peaceful transition of power

Wallace lost control of this debate early and often

That is my review of the debate itself, not who won or lost based on policy

He would have needed a whip and a chair.

You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?
