Real Time Debate Night Commentary Thread!

I see a lot of umpire blaming going on here.

The fact is that Trump shat the bed during the debate. No one made him lose his mind on national television. No one made him sound like the crazy uncle who you only see on holidays. Trump did all that by himself.

The moderators fact checking the lies had nothing to do with how Trump behaved or how people saw him at home.

Why don’t the Trump supporters amongst us grow up and realize that Trump is such a narcissist that he will never take responsibility for anything he fails at. Never ever. It’s always someone else’s fault. It’s always because they cheated. It’s always because he’s being persecuted. It doesn’t take a genius to see the pattern here. This is an old standard from the Trump playbook.
She wants to be the leader of the Free World and you don't expect her to have an answer for pet eating? WTF? What's going to happen when some tin pot third world dictator launches nukes at the USA? Is she going to freeze?

The 2018 law that bans dog eating in the USA specifically exempts Native Americans. And what party do most Native Americans belong to? And which political party carved out the exemption? You know the answers.

This is a real problem in America, especially with the huge influx of pet eating illegal immigrants, all of whom will become Democrats upon naturalization. Thank goodness Donald Trump's bringing this to the attention of the nation!

Seriously, Harris' best response would have been to burst out laughing. If there's another debate hopefully Trump will concentrate on issues like inflation, taxes and regulation, instead of dog eating. That's too much to ask though. Originally Posted by Tiny

In all the many debates you watched, do you recall anyone saying anything so outrageous and demonstrably untrue as Trump's claim that Democrats want to kill babies after they're born? The rules have changed. Nice to cite precedent, but there's no precedent for him.
And, if you put the onus on the opponent to call the other out, you cut into their time. If you don't, then you have the moderators determining what's a warranted response that should add time. Originally Posted by yeahsurewhatev

A three minute read that can clarify what Trump didn't understand.

Abortion is ending the life of a fetus before birth. If you provide care for a suffering infant who cannot survive (what Northam was talking about), that's something else, something humane, so not something Trump can understand.

Trump was correct - and Kamala and the ABC shlubs were lying.

Not in 2020, but in Tuesday’s debate.
I don't think the debate really changed much of anything. Harris basically gave a campaign speech with zero policy answers.


The only thing that was obvious was ABC moderators never called Harris out for her lies.



I don't know that undecided people really changed their minds, except maybe turn them off from even voting at all.

it's a crime and prosecuted as such.

Not saying that some children born dont' die aftewards from birth or immediately afterbirth, but stillborns and those who die shortly afterwards are nothing new in the USA. Happens every damn day. Where's the outrage for that??

Trump lied his ass-off for his red hat crowd who believe this non-sense.

Nope, you are repeating the lie told by Democrats. There are one or two states that allow it, or prevent the saving of the baby if it is born alive in a late term abortion. Minnesota I believe is one of the them.

If that's getting a plate full of shit thrown on you, Kamala did a fucking A plus job of tossing that platter and it hit 100%. Aint no amount of Tide or bleach stick getting that off him.

Sorry, but anyone believing that someone who was undecided didn't hear and see that- is living in denial. She offered those folks a place on her org and with the party. All Trumpy grumpy did was lie and deflect, and then say stupid shit like he knows' his lies were true cause he saw them on TV, with Hannity and Laura Ingraham. LOL.

He's been seen, measured and come up ....SHORT. So much so, that doesn't even still realize how owned he was on TV.

Let's hear from Sentor John Kennedy (R) from Louisiana. He knows far more than the average harris backer.

Now until listening to this, especially from the 4:00 minute mark I was in tears. Not because I'm a precious little snowflake, but because I have a heart. I never really thought about abortions, I thought they just sucked out an egg somewhere, but it's so much different. As usual, the democratic senator didn't allow Senator Kennedy a chance to finish, but this issue ends in late January when we get a new senate and clean out all the lying garbage like pocahontas.
