Here we go. Donald Trump and Kamala Harris debate in Philadelphia at 9 PM ET.
Have fun.
Goldman Sachs approves of Kamala Harris’s plan? Not sure if that is something I’d be boasting about. #Debate2024

BREAKING: Tomorrow is the 23rd anniversary of 9/11, and Kamala Harris just said January 6th was worse
Thousands of people were murdered on that day, and only Trump supporters were shot or beaten on J6
She's truly sick!

It would be easier to attack Trump’s dumb tariffs if Biden hadn’t kept so many of them in place lol
— Ben Dreyfuss (@bendreyfuss) September 11, 2024
Kamala Harris was just asked why she and Biden kept the Trump Tariffs in place.
She dodged the question.

Surprising (is it?) that ABC News moderator fact checks Trump in real time on abortion while letting Kamala slide on her economic representations that are utterly hogwash.

It’s true.
Tim Walz not only believes in abortion at all stages of a pregnancy, but even after birth.
Walz accidentally voted in favor of HR4712, which provided medical care to babies who survived abortion—but then REVERSED his vote.

ABC moderator live fact-checked Trump on legality of post-birth abortion
Took a pass when Kamala referenced “Trump’s Project 2025,” which is objectively false. Why?
— Brent Scher (@BrentScher) September 11, 2024
The absolute gall of ABC to keep “fact checking” ONLY Trump while letting her lie in every answer is infuriating.
— Megyn Kelly (@megynkelly) September 11, 2024
The reason why VP Harris has the support of 200 Republicans is that these establishment Republicans are closer to her views than to President Trump’s. They exemplify what I’ve called the “uniparty.” Trump is running against the establishment, and that’s why they hate him.…

ANOTHER “fact check”
— Lawrence Jones III (@LawrenceBJones3) September 11, 2024
It’s incredible how the ABC moderators are fact checking Trump non-stop but refuse to do the same for Kamala Harris.
She’s lied, a lot.
Not a single fact check.
— Dustin Grage (@GrageDustin) September 11, 2024
ABC has made this a 4 vs 1 debate
This is the only way they can get Kamala elected

What do you think of the visuals of this, with Trump plowing straight ahead and Harris employing a variety of facial expressions as she listens to him?

— JD Vance (@JDVance) September 11, 2024
Kamala Harris was very clearly and directly asked: Are the American people better off now than they were 4 years ago? She could not say yes because the answer is no — the American people are worse off today because of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden’s policies.
— Tulsi Gabbard 🌺 (@TulsiGabbard) September 11, 2024
Trump is telling the truth. Harris was sent over to Europe to de-escalate the situation. She gave an interview claiming that threats of sanctions would prevent the war.
Then Putin invaded days later.
— Bonchie (@bonchieredstate) September 11, 2024
No. Kamala did NOT get the questions in advance.
She got the answers.
They said: “Say X about any immigration question, say Y about any crime question, say Z about any abortion question.
“The questions don’t matter, just use these sound bites.
“These are our moderators.”
— Ron Coleman (@RonColeman) September 11, 2024
Kamala has been VP for 3.5 years.
She talks about a plan? We've lived under her economic plans, and prices are up over 20% and real wages are down almost 4%.
Now she wants to add bread lines to her record of fueling inflation by instituting Soviet-style price controls.

“Before mass leaders seize the power to fit reality to their lies, their propaganda is marked by its extreme contempt for facts as such, for in their opinion fact depends entirely on the power of man who can fabricate it.”
This is a quote from Hannah Arendt on totalitarianism. The Democrats are totalitarians and have declared war on reality and facts. If they win, history shows us what happens.
It will be 3 against 1
As usual
After she gave her first answer and Trump was invited to give his response, I instantly thought of Dan Aykroyd, “Jane, you ignorant slut!”

The scene from the debate we all want to see. https://x.com/i/status/1832956697272324135
Oh, and just in case some people have delusions that this debate will be fair in the slightest, one of the moderators literally introduced Harris to her husband and has been described as ‘one of her best friends’ in the past.
I was in error, its not a moderator, its one of the head executives, Walden.
I believe the person you’re referencing – Dana Walden – is actually the Co-Chairman of Disney Entertainment…essentially the boss, of the boss, of the boss of everyone on that stage who’s not Harris or Trump. So, even worse, IMO.
Harris’s last two commercials are off-outting and gross, especially the one with Obama. Shows what they obsess over.
Avoidance of the first question and pandering.
And smirking- ugh!
Not a good look .
She did it because she knew the moderators were going to allow her to do it.
1. Coin toss? No crowd l? Lame.
2. DJT opens with ‘I have no sales tax. ‘. Ugh. What’s wrong with “My fellow Americans”?
First lie of the evening from one of the moderators, in addition the moderators should be letting them debate not joining in.
The best way to bias is in what questions they choose. For a moment I thought they would spend an hour on abortion.
‘eating the dogs’ and we have our sound byte for 2024.
That was a very stupid idea by Trump, police have already refuted the claims. He had a very good case for what was done in Springfield why does he have to go for the most extreme claim he could find instead of the most credible? Devastated economy with a rising crime rate is a horrible thing without the pet lore.
So, Springfield Ohio residents are liars.
MSM is not.
So, Town leaders, who don’t want to lose residents or tourist $$ are telling the truth.
We got it.
You can tell how effective the Haitans Eating Cats info has been from how all of the leftists are frantically trying to damage control it.
Danny the leftist shill and eternal Trump hater has posted at least 4 times on this page trying to deflect from this and outright lying how its been ‘refuted’ (pro tip – the full 911 call reporting it was already leaked). No other topic comes close.
That tells you how terrified the leftists are of this live grenade.
There is a picture tonight of a Haitian carrying two dead geese, down the street.
So the residents are all lying and the town manager, whose job it is to protect the reputation of the town, and a debate moderator who is a journalist because he’s not intelligent enough to hold a real job, are the only ones who *really* know what’s going on?
Trump is having to debate Harris and mods. Insanely biased comments from them.
Yup. Letting the 2025 lie slide twice so far. Now, Trump is debating the moderator while the whore stands there and smirks.
Did you honestly expect anything else? Anybody that did needs to have their head examined.
An awful lot of supposed conservatives seem to think that just because they played fair on the Biden debate, it meant that all of their previous rabid bias magically disappeared into the aether.
They played fair on the Biden debate because they wanted Biden gone. Now they want Kamala to win the election. They have always been far left cheerleaders, and will always be far left cheerleaders.
They didn’t correct her because they feel it’s true. It doesn’t matter that it’s a lie, it just feels right to them so in their tiny little lizard brains, it becomes true.
The moderators have entered the debate to help Harris. Shock, shock.
Abortion conversation is over if Trump just answers yes he would veto, he said he wants it to be up to the states in the question it really is stupid that he danced around the question.
Shockingly the moderators actually moved on from abortion.
More time spent on abortion than economy.
Because leftists murdering babies for free is more important than the economy. Perhaps we can use dead baby parts to fuel vehicles.
The AWFLs are awful. They want their any-time blameless responsibilityless abortions, and the Democrats are more than willing to pander to them.
Anyone notice if Kamala is being given more time or is she just that insufferable that it feels like an eternity to listen to her?
We’ve been bingeing on Seinfeld and if you can recall the episode where Newman has flees and trying not to itch… that’s Kumella trying not to cackle. I think she made it 35 minutes.
Turned off. At this point in the debate Trump is debating against 3 opponents..
Trump is chasing rabbits…..the pets claim is just untrue he could have hit a homerun instead just by leaving the claim illegals are eating pets out.
And Danny can do better job. Got it.
You are wrong about the pet claim and he was correct but that will not make the papers.
You probably should remember to take the pussy hat off before posting here.
“The people on television” Please stop chasing rabbits Mr. President, you have a perfectly good target why are you handing the debate to Kamala?
Each moderator had now stepped into fact checking one now. Not there job.
I am dreading Trump’s reaction to Kamala’s current taunting.
She looks terrible, though. She’s sighing, smirking, shrugging, rolling her eyes, and flopping around putting her hand on her face. She is very unlikable, and this makes her even more so. Who acts like that? Is that behavior PRESIDENTIAL, Danny?
I couldn’t agree more. I was worried mainly because it is a 3 vs 1 and I started thinking of it as Trump vs Moderators who are calm and collected in debating Trump and forgot his opponent was the harpy.
She appears to be suffering GERD or is having bladder spasms.
No idea how this is playing to less-partisan undecided/swing voters. But, I honestly can’t remember a worse panel of ‘moderators’ for any presidential debate. It’s like they showed them the tape of Gwen Ifil and Candy Crowley and said to them: Like that, only way worse.
At this point I am able to see only anger in Trump, this is not a good look for him. He really needed to try for presidential.
they need to put the question on the screen. the responses have nothing to do with the question asked.
Finally a true homerun by Trump, answering about Jan 6th never discuss what matters like illegal immigration. If asked again he should pivot back to fracking, and just keep doing that till the night ends.
Trump is coming back.
She brought up the Charlottesville lie!
On purpose to mislead the low info voters.
For once he did respond with facts but the old saying, “When you are explaining, you are losing” seems to be in play.
And both moderators were wearing their “grave and serious” expressions even though both have been told it is a lie. They don’t care and they won’t correct Kween Kamala.
We’ve gone through two segments that should have been dreadful for Harris – the Economy & Immigration – and Harris manged to make it largely unscathed. The reality is Trump is not a great extemporaneous speaker. He’s a big idea guy, not someone who can pick apart counter-arguments in a compelling, granular way. Harris has been pathetic, ignoring the questions and lying her as off. But, she’s helped by the mods. I wouldn’t say she’s winning. But, she’s doing exponentially better than Biden did, obviously. She managed to get Trump off-balance and on defense with some very predictable jabs. Not sure any side is helped thus far. But, Harris hasn’t damaged herself either.
He should have done better but he at least got some good points in.
Trump needed Harris to implode. She didn’t. Not good.
She was protected by the moderators.
Second home run of the night by Trump, the old Trump is coming back to life, he is turning into the old more happy Trump which is hopefully now enough to win the debate.
What on Earth are you talking about?
These moderators are doing what they’re paid to do.
Trump should be discussing current issues whenever they bring up 2020 because there is no way for him to win on that.
Reluctantly agree. If brought up, don’t back down: defend position and Quickly move on. So many missed opportunities. Abraham accords v. Kumala buddies w terror hamas and all the other miscreants. Bottom line though, this not change much nor hurt too much. Gut feeling. Republic already in dire straits. Good luck, time, states involvement, and Divine providence will get us back. But maybe not quickly.
I stopped watching. ABC is doing their best to see “Democracy is safe from Trump”
The mods are repeating Hamas casualties figures now. Good times.
I’m going back to work now and will catch the talking heads on replay. didn’t lose the election in the first hour; he will always be Trump.
Please pardon me, but it seems to me that che Kamala looked like she had to pee really badly.
I don’t know if it will matter in three days much less 60-days. But, the betting markets have now moved back to Harris. The normies – or at least the betting Normies – think that Harris is winning….and that’s probably correct. Trump has been undisciplined and Trumpy. His lack of preparation is obvious and even if he had, it likely wouldn’t have mattered. He’s very predictable in these things and with the moderator’s help, Harris has been able to successfully bait him several times.
Meh, he is Trump being Trump.
I see no way he does not win, despite any debate performance.
The left lost when they shuffled Joe into a corner after telling us to not believe our eyes, that he was sharp as a tack and fit as a fiddle.
Betting markets have not been kind to Trump over the last hour. As I said, maybe it’s not enduring. But, for the moment, the betters believe he lost with Harris moving up to $.56 as of this writing.
https://www.predictit.org/markets/detail/7456/Who-will-win-the-2024-US-presidential-election
Betting markets are as fickle as national polls. It’s like the weather. If you don’t like what you see, tomorrow will be different. If you like what you see, tomorrow will be different.
I really wish I could think of a reason you are wrong, and really wish I did not see what I just saw.
What is amazing to me is the downvotes you got. Did these downvoters not see the same “Debate” we saw? Trump had so many opportunities to trounce her with data and facts but had none. He repeated himself over and over when what he said was not important. I don’t believe he ever answered one single question asked. She did with lies but she had answers. This was an example of him not preparing and his enormous ego getting in his way. I just hope we can hang on and win in Nov.
Because it was an easily identifiable LIE.
The ‘betting markets’ have shown no such thing. Trump has been in the lead for some time now. The only time Harris was in the lead was directly after the convention. Every single major betting outlet favored Trump.
How about we give it 24 hours to see the results instead of saying something that hasn’t had time to be discussed around the country. Trump did a poor job and no amount of cheering is going to change it. He had so many opportunities to call her lies out but didn’t. I think he answered about ten questions that the border is out of control.
He made a statement that was a lie, and he was rightly called out by the downvotes you were whining about. So no, we aren’t ‘going to give it 24 hours’. It was a lie, and its still a lie.
At some point, the market may move back to Harris. And back to Trump. And back to Harris. The election is almost 2 months away.
But given his statement was they had ALREADY moved to Harris, and not a single major betting market had, it would still be a lie.
In the first couple minutes Trump was losing. Harris does fresh new lies and Trump spends his time denying stuff she’s moved on past.
It’s a performance for viewers, not thinkers, the Harris team realized.
Giant opening for Trump Kamala is defending the Afghan Withdrawal policy.
The Taliban took over Afghanistan as a result of decisions by Biden which Kamala said she supported at the start of her answer, he really needs to hit the homerun again
Nice pivot away from the horseshit race question. The CP5 are totally guilty though.
It will be interested to see how the debate moderators are viewed by the Indies tonight. They’ve been so laughably partisan, it may backfire on them. I think Harris’ #1 goal was to not shit the bed like Biden did. Had it not been for moderators, she may not have met that goal. But, they wouldn’t allow her to fail. Trump probably didn’t hurt himself in an enduring way. But, he left a LOT of meat on a bone that would have been picked clean by Vance, Vivek, DeSantis & Youngkin…among others.
I agree with everything you just said.
I hope you are correct that it may not have hurt him but his performance was terrible. He looked like the old man who needs to retire. I know that isn’t who he is but this debate may cause him some problems.
They were so over the top and in your face that even my normie friends noticed. It was quite stupid of them, as well, they missed a couple of easy layups where they could have pretended to fact-check Harris on things that even the far left has acknowledged was a lie like the Very Fine People nonsense, to at least try and keep some thin veneer of balance. They wouldn’t need to argue with her or attack her, just say, “Snopes admitted that was a lie and that was not what Trump had said”, and move on.
Instead they exposed themselves for the partisans they have always been, but I do think that it woke up some people. I don’t think they fact checked Harris one single time the entire debate, and people noticed.
Considering the extreme bias and the short angry period mid-stream, Trump did okay and finished on a strong note, especially as she descended into word salads and feelings.
Yeah, no. He did not do okay. He bombed. She won. It’s horrific.
The only upside I can see is that she will be willing (now that she buried Trump) to a second debate. If so, and I hope very much so, Trump needs to pull his crap together and win. He CAN, but he . . . just didn’t. I’m in shock at how bad this went.
FYI…
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/09/10/harris-campaign-wants-second-presidential-debate-with-trump/
That was yesterday. Today, there is no reason at all for her to agree to a second debate. Trump wouldn’t if their circumstances were reversed, and we’d all be cheering that decision.
Drudge is reporting that Harris wants another
Oh, I hope so!
Make up your mind. Yeah, no? You may be surprised how normal people react once the talking heads do their thing. Not to mention the substance, which she failed to address with her “performance.” Did not say Trump did great, but he had some strong points as well.
I believe his problem is his rallies. He is adored there and everyone there loves him and his horrible speeches. This gives him a sense that he is great and can say no wrong. I cannot watch his rally speeches and can only watch what he said when the entire speech has been reduced to the valuable things he said. I simply could not believe his response to his crowd size! That was like chum to a shark and so predictable.
So awful, so cringe. I really am just floored by how unprepared he was for her attacks. Who is his debate prep team? How did they miss this stuff? And why can’t Trump pull it together for a freaking hour and a half?!
Still stunned. It will seem less awful tomorrow, I hope.
I don’t think he had any prep from the answers he gave. She was lying there belly up for him to gut her but he got stuck on old stuff that no one cares about any longer. 2020 is long gone and 2024 is now. On one hand, he could have refuted all of her lies by just pointing out her positions on the issues she mentioned. He could have asked her how she was going to pay for all of the goodies she proposed but didn’t. He had so many opportunities but missed them all. But there is no doubt who will make the best POTUS and we all know it.
Trump simply cannot debate. His mind does not work like ours and seems to be stuck in the past.
Yeah, a horrible showing here. Disappointing, to say the least.
I mean Que Mala won this debate. I’m still reeling.
I am still reeling that Trump took bait on crowd sizes. That was a gut punch to me.
He fell for every trope she threw out. Instead of using facts and data, he resorted to his rally BS and that doesn’t work in a debate.
He’s so undisciplined and ego-driven that he couldn’t help himself. I just found the whole thing horrendous. Komrade Kackles Kamala actually bested Trump in a debate. I so did not have that on my bingo card and am, frankly, still reeling.
Maybe once it all sinks in, I’ll see an upside. But right now. Ugh.
The only hope from this debacle is that many voters know how badly she lied and how ABC didn’t bother to fact check on any of them. “Blood Bath”, “Fine people on both sides”. “Go to the Capital peacefully and patriotically”, “Project 25”, a national anti-abortion committee, a lifetime of racism, weak and a dictator like Putin and Xi. Her lies were so obvious but not one kickback from her aides.
I’m not sure which debate you were watching, Fuzzy. Watch it again and you’ll see that Kamala was a mess. Most of what she said was stupid, wrong, or completely senseless.
“Most of what she said was stupid, wrong, or completely senseless.”
Channeling Harry Reid: “But the viewers swallowed it, didn’t they?”
Why would you think that? Because some leftist commentators said so?
I doubt anyone who watched that debate came away thinking that Kamala said much of anything sensible – not even her supporters, who only seem to be thrilled because they think she hit Trump with a few zingers.
The funny thing is, the better they think Kamala did n the debate, the more she will actually be pressured to do normal press conferences, interviews and town halls, because the idiot MSM will think that she is able to handle herself. That’ll be a hoot.
I don’t think you understand the people who are going to vote for her. They do not know that she was lying or BSing. She looked polished and informed, although she actually said nothing while she talked, and Trump said the same old lines he says at his rallies. No one ever pushes back at his rallies so he has no experience answering tough questions.
Trump does more than just rallies. He does town halls, interviews, and lopsided debates. He is VERY used to answering tough questions. Basically, that’s all he does when he interacts with the media – and he is used to giving almost daily press conferences entertaining any and all questions by people who hate his guts and want nothing else but to tear him and his policies apart.
Trump started the free-wheeling COVID press conferences, answering any and all questions, and they were such a success that Andrew Cuomo unashamedly tried to copy Trump (and he and the press made pretend that Cuomo thought up the idea all on his own – LOL).
She admitted that she was a prosecutor, then said she asked her clients how they were feeling. She was a prosecutor, she had no clients.
Trump does terrible in debates
I wasnt looking forward to this, but maybe be needed to prepare more, he had to know she had the questions and they were going to gang up on him
I don’t think he lost votes, but he didn’t gain any
For the first time in history, I have to agree with you. He looked almost as bad as Biden in the last debate, in which Trump didn’t need to reply to any questions. Harris lied in every sentence but he kept his cool but his answers were so bad that he may have cost himself a few votes.
First time in history, then I must know you are not a Trump supporter in reality
Oh shut up, gonzo. Your bizarre purity Trump supporting tests are tedious and stupid. Trump doesn’t give a crap about you and never will. My Trump vote is just as good as yours. Get over this crazy impetus to be the bestest best Trump supporter of all time. You have one vote, just like me . . . and they matter zero much since you are voting in Texas and I am voting in Florida. Trump will win both of our states. Your crazy cult crap about who is the “true” Trump believer is bizarre and off-putting, so stop it.
Wow, shut up Gonzo
Your special
There you go gonzo, never let a compliment go to waste. I had to listen to your tripe about De Santis to the point that you made me sick. Now, you are seeing that Trump isn’t perfect and has warts like all men/women. Should we say that you are not a real Trumper?
Trump is the anti-politician, doing everything wrong in the debates is part of his ethos, both in 2016 and 2020.
I don’t know if I was watching a different debate, but the one I watched was definitely NOT won by Que Mala.
The little c conservatives were saying the same thing after the Biden debate and were whining about how badly Trump did then too 😂😂
She was all emotion and obfuscation. Thus, she appealed magnificently to her target audience and will easily win in November.
Joy is going to hit us hard and heavy.
Her target audience will vote for a cock flavoured lollipop if it had a D after it.
That is a given.
What won’t win her the election are the undecideds who will not be voting for her after this performance, and it was nothing more than a performance as they at least understand that they know nothing more about her policies after this debate.
The biggest opportunity Trump passed up was to run against the media, and contest their fact checking.
That would have been futile. All he did was to state the facts, get the truth out on the airwaves and move on.
Just arguing with the mods is a waste of time and he was far better off just saying what he had to say because now those facts are out in the wild.
People still capable of thinking for themselves will look at the mods performance and ask themselves that there probably is some substance to what Trump was saying for the mods to be THAT biased,
I’m sorry to say it but Trump is one lousy debater. I KNOW every one of you was screaming at the TV when he didn’t respond with facts to her obvious lies. I know you all had data that he should have thrown out about how bad she and Biden have been on many issues. I couldn’t believe how dumb he was in his responses to her lies or the lack of factual data to prove her lying. If I didn’t know anything about either of them, she won the debate. But of course, I know she lied through the entire thing and I pray to God that the public can see through her rehearsed lines and answers. On one question asked of her, she was already responding before the question was finished. It was a rehearsed performance but unfortunately, Mr. Ego decided not to practice and looked like an old man who was out of touch. All he had to do was ask her to explain why she changed her position on every single issue that is plaguing the American public today. I just hope common sense prevails and he wins but he better not agree to another debate.
Question is which of the journalists was worst the woman who was eagerly fighting for the Democrats or the man who was eagerly despising Trump?
There is that
It is the talk, not the debate so
Much as the moderators behavior
Well there is this

Won’t move the needle noticeably. Trump was not on the top of his game, (but he wasn’t too bad), and she overperformed—but everyone who follows politics pretty closely knows this was to be expected. The big difference—and the benefit of the muted mic—was she regurgitated all her memorized talking points without interruption—and gave them all an artificial, rehearsed, memorized vibe. Trump was a bit of a loose canon–but with that came authenticity and a little bit of understandable and relatable frustration.
For the people truly undecided and unpartisan—I believe they will see this as a subpar, but honest and sincere performance by Trump, and a polished but artificial performance by Harris.
Agree with this assessment. Undecideds may also notice the abc tilt that keeps them from Harris and who she really is.
My take. Who could sit across the table from any world leader and ensure the United States was on firm footing?
Now, who could do that with China, Russia, Iran, Venezuela, North Korea, or any of our other potential enemies?
Some have more faith in people to see through the BS.
There is so much on Harris to reveal her incompetent policies and deception.
Hold on to your seats.
Trump lost the debate before a single word was spoken,…Harris was smiling and looking confident, Trump looked like the kid awaiting his fate in the principal’s office,…scared and timid
LOL.
At least you have made clear that your assessment was reached “before a single word was spoken”. That’s how leftists do it.
Why can’t he give his opinion without being subjected to insults? Trump was not going to shake hands with her and it was obvious until she stuck her hand out and forced him to react. He simply was not prepared for her to attack him like she did. She was vulgar, obnoxious, and smirky but she was prepared and he wasn’t
Show me the alleged insult.
I pointed out that his conclusion was reached before it started, which is something that leftists like to do. Both are merely true statements.
Not sure where he got the idea that Kamala was looking confident .. but that’s his thing.
It was more a look of arrogance. he hand to the chin was pretend Obama, and the base was obvioulsy wetting their pants with excitement about what matters most, PERFORMANCE. Running America will be like a Broadway play, actors making life and death decisions. You are no one to listen to.
Komrade Kamala was awful. I got a kick out of watching CNN and MSNBC’s coverage after the debate and they are trying to pretend that Kamala was a killer. It was funny.
She sucked pretty awful. I did love the part where she was chanting “I HAVE A PLAN” over and over and over. I would make ads out of that.
And they are all trying to sell Trump as weak. LOL. Good luck with that.
Why didn’t Trump stop the debate and say “What is your plan and how will you pay for it?” A teenager could have done that but Trump didn’t.
in case you didn’t notice … Trump did not get to ask Kamala questions. He only got to suggest questions to the moderators – which they generally ignored.
Further, that is a silly question. She could not possibly answer it and would not even try or be forced to elucidate anything. You cannot ask general questions like that and expect anything.
Your claim that Trump (who did perfectly well in that debate) underperformed a random teenager is pretty silly. I mean, come on. Be a little serious.
Kamala gave lots of circular collections of nothing words. As people examine the tapes they’ll piece these out. Half the time it was clear that she didn’t have a clue as to what she was talking about. I thought it was really rich when she tried to claim she was going to one-up Trump on building houses and how she got all emotional about Ukraine and “sovereignty and the sanctity of national territory” [paraphrased by memory] As if …
51 million people watched the debate, many didn’t hang around for the entire time.
I left when ABC decided to fact check Trump, but not Harris.
Debates are not make or break events, since so few watch. They are not even debates at all. Just talking points and nonsense. To me, Trump was Trump and Harris was Harris. They were who I expected them to be, acting the way I expected them to act.
Biden’s demise was a one off, because it proved to the nation that he wasn’t all there. The democrats got spooked, and dumped him. Unceremoniously.
Harris survived, because she’s stupid, not brain dead like Biden.
Trump survived because he’s all bluster and bloviation.
If people haven’t figured out by now who they are voting for, then they will stick their wet finger to the wind to see which way it’s blowing.
Today is a non issue. As an independent, it didn’t make me want to change my vote for a cheap whore who hasn’t accomplished much in her life.
I have never put much stock in the “X people watched” nonsense. When you dig down into the data, its an absurdly low bar to be declared a ‘watcher’, something like watched 5 minutes of the debate at any point qualifies you as a “Watcher”. IMHO, to be counted as a watcher should require watching at least 30% of the length – long enough to reasonably say you had seen enough.
And of course there is the secondary question of how many of these alleged watchers are actual US citizens of voting age. If 20 million people in Europe watched, nobody in the US cares.
Is Trump right? Does the loser want a rematch?
There are only two things people will remember about this debate (besides the bad “moderators”). 1) Trump’s hush moment 2) Trump’s closing remarks. That’s it.
No, the ONLY thing anyone will remember from this debate is that Haitians are eating dogs and cats in Ohio
And that my friend is a win for President Trump
I love how the moderators (and later MSM commentators) were so incredulous about that. In Israel they had that same problem when they started importing Thai workers to replace the arabs from the territories during the first intifada. The Thais would eat everything that walked or crawled or flew. Whole areas started being stripped of wildlife and pets of every sort, from dogs and cats to squirrels, birds, and insects. The Thai workers caught and ate EVERYTHING. You used to be able to see all of the animals and critters strung up in their little camps, all hanging on wires. There started to be a real problem with the loss of the natural wildlife in areas.
The fact that the leftists are trying to act as if Haitians eating up the surrounding animals is totally unbelievable is going to blow up in all of their faces. It highlights how they like to lie about the illegals just to force them on Americans. It is pretty sick and Americans are not going to take much more of this junk.
We already had the illegals that have been caught catching and eating eagles (for which there should have been a very special, merciless long-long term punishment for them). This isn’t much different but the leftists like to act as if it is unbelievable that Haitians would be chasing down animals in the street to eat. Clearly, none of these leftists have ever been to Haiti. Man, that is one unbelievably disgusting sh*thole.
Trump slamming down the absolutely legendary Uno Reverse and telling Harris ‘I’m speaking’ was the other viral moment.
No, Springfield OH!
Kamala – “I was at the Capitol on Jan 6th”
Yeah … but she left early and was at the DNC when the fake pipe bomb was “discovered” … but she lied about having been there and never talks about it even though a pipe bomb, if it were true, would be the worst event of Jan 6 by MILES!!!! and if it were true would mean that she came within feet of being killed.
But it isn’t true because the Jan 6 pipe bombs were a hoax perpetrated by the feds and now the dems and the feds are trying to make pretend that the pipe bombs never even existed …while they still go after grannies who were invited into the Capitol by Capitol Police and walked around quietly for a few minutes.

from Coulter on Muir:
“In March 2015, ABC news anchor David Muir
— moderator of tonight’s presidential debate — began the broadcast with a recap of the 2014 police shooting in Ferguson, MO the previous year:
“Ferguson, Missouri: An unarmed black man, Michael Brown, is shot to death. The officer is not indicted.”
And that was it: “The officer is not indicted.”
Muir failed to acknowledge that the whole “hands up, don’t shoot” scenario turned out to be a lie invented by Brown’s co-conspirator: ex-con, Dorian Johnson.
Muir made no mention of the fact that the officer, Darren Wilson, wasn’t indicted because he was fully exonerated in two separate investigations.
And Muir certainly neglected to report that Obama’s own DOJ had cleared Wilson of any wrongdoing, after a months-long, zealot-driven investigation by Attorney General Eric Holder.”

If I could design the absolute worst Democratic nominee for POTUS, it would look an awful lot like Kamala Harris. In my scenario, this debate is irrelevant because the race isn’t close. But here we are.
What I did notice and find interesting is that in all of the post-debate polls I’ve seen of the alphabet networks, they seemed to have asked the question ‘who won the debate’ and not allowed ‘neither’ as an answer.
I just found that striking, almost like they thought that eliminating ‘neither’ as an answer would shove the polls towards Harris.
Because in a debate like this, it should be an option to answer there was no clear winner.
