9.10.24 Presidential Debate

[DragonGunner]

Didn’t watch. Wife did and said Trump didn’t look prepared, Kamala did ok, and brought up Trumps past and he spent his time defending his past. Moderators were on Kamala’s side. Of course it was ABC and of course Trump chose to Wade into the swamp again. Instead of dragging the swamp where he wants it on better ground.

Nobody is undecided. 1/3 vote American, 1/3 vote for Communists, 1/3 don’t vote and don’t care if they are free or slaves.

But it still shapes the party for the state. Which gets better candidates overall. It's just a common theme that nobody likes any of the candidates across all levels but very few vote in primaries.

Ok, I was just talking in the frame of the presidency. I agree with the state level and below. Unfortunately, incumbency seems to be king in the state/local races. We couldn't even replace Baird this go round.

I think if we hounded people to vote in primaries we could replace a lot of people. The sad fact is that most people that vote in primaries are probably party affiliated anyway, so they'll vote for the party candidate.

local news says it is generally agreed that Camela won the debate

Never Forget… Kamala said “January 6th was the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War” and so said with out words that it was worse than 9/11.

Moderator: Madame Vice President, is the sky blue?

Kamala: First of all, and this is important, Trump is a horrible person and..."

Moderator: Thank you for your great answer.

Moderator: Mr. Trump, can you please defend yourself for being a horrible person?

Trump: I'm not a horrible person.

Moderator: Mr. Trump, yes you are.

I did learn something new. Trump is responsible for every single negative event since the Vietnam war. Oil embargo, Trump's fault. Iran contra, Trump. Inflation, Trump. Illegal and dangerous invasion of unknown foreigners, Trump. Putin endorsed Kamala and she blames Trump. When Kamala couldn't blame Trump, the moderators would.

He rambles about how great, beautifully and perfect he is, and if I don't believe him, just ask anyone, they'll all tell you he's great.

She is devoid of any intellectual thought. But she can karaoke Barry Soetoro's greatest platitudinal hits. She performed well (her go-to move, as I understand it) but I wouldn't call it a win necessarily.

He should have reminded people that the Left has controlled the white house 12 of the last 16 years. If things are worse, it's probably because of that


I think he was probably overconfident and under prepared.

I watched the debate. It was a missed opportunity by Trump unfortunately. I doubt there will be a 2nd debate.

1. It is blatantly obvious just how politically biased ABC News truly is.
2. Injecting your own personal opinions is not "fact checking", Mr. Muir.
3. Not "fact checking" one candidate while constantly "fact checking" the other does not make fir a "fair and balanced debate.
4. Allowing one candidate to NOT answer the question asked, and allowing them to go on a personal attack of the other candidate, then requiring the "accused" candidate to respond to that attack without any push back to the original question is total bias.
5. This "debate" was nothing more than a 3 on 1 gang bang.

Kamala, "81 million people fired [Trump]"

But none of them voted for her.

81 million legit votes, my ***

I think if he had been better prepared and had some good policy plans, the outcome would have been much different. He just seemed unprepared.

 

[Tradesylver]

From what I'm reading Trump was classic Trump. He had nothing to gain from a debate with her and everything to lose. He's his own worse enemy. This country's most expensive commodity is ignorance and I expect it will be on full display this November.

 

[rb288]

Did anyone else notice that while the mikes were supposed to be turned off when it wasn't their turn to speak, Kamala's wasn't off at all?

 

[Flash-hider]

How many times did the mods fact check Harris?

It's not up to the mods to call out what they think is fake news during a debate. That's up to the people watching to decide what is the truth or a wild accusation. Besides, who elected the media to be the all mighty guardian of the truth? As usual I figured the mods would show their bias that's why I didn't watch it.

I most certainly did. Why was that not called out? Not a word has been said about it. The odds were definitely 3:1 against Trump.

Back to status quo.

There is zero proof. That's why you are wrong. Had there been proof, it would have been a big deal. We didn't have to nominate someone with all of the baggage that was thrown in this debate. J6 and the surrounding lies included.
