It's what you say because there is no other acceptable answer. Seriously. None. So why didn't he do it? Either (a) he's a moron; or (b) he really does want their support. Either one doesn't bode well. Or, he didn't give a F to answer a non-question about a really non-existent congtingent of society. It'd be like asking, Mr. President, do you care to respond to the people that contend we didn't land on the moon? It's a ludicrous question, aimed at a very small, very small, very small (I'll say again), very small, ignorant, segment of society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine there's about 32 pages so far of people here singing his praises claiming this actually helped him. I really hate that I used to think you were a good poster on the other board. You're an ass-clown, and if you're that far-removed from reality, it makes me feel bad I ever agreed with any football takes you ever had.

So it's a strategy, and probably all he's got (since you ain't gonna budge the > 50% who think he's the worst thing since Andrew Johnson), but it's a super longshot. 52-47, in the EC, will win you every time. Not sure which school of math you're trying to push here. But EC 51+ wins!

Wallace let Biden tell the story of the Church. Wallace didn't interrupt to ask "why was the Church on fire?" He's a joke. But we knew this. I dont think there was a single viewer that didn't say in their minds, or out loud like me...."wait, that wasn't peaceful. The church was set on fire". How did Trump miss that golden opportunity? He should have said, the only thing peaceful that day was your sleep in your basement. The church was set on fire by the protestors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 If they're going to have two more debates cut off the mike of the person until it's their time to respond. This debate was embarrassing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TtownBillsFan Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 It was, on all sides, Doc. I'm sure you'd agree. I want both people to be able to make their points, but the moderation (which is what you're talking about) was an embarrassment. They REALLY need to make it known that no one speaks while the other is speaking, that goes BOTH ways. And the sounds and head bobs and everything that the cameras are looking for, that needs not to be part of it either. BUT, I want one moderated fairly. Chris Wallace is not a journalist, nor fair moderator. You Need, like I said, an O'reilley or some similar (journalist by name, but you know which way they lean) to even it out for the second, then for the third, even they get all questions by a line that forms at the back, and people line up and ask questions, or it needs to come from someone like Trey Parker, whose proven to be very fair, up the middle, and won't hesitate to throw a zinger to either.

TtownBillsFan Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Doc Brown - we all know you're lefty. No one knows me, but I'm pretty righty. And I'm always interested in how people see things, as it's pretty incredible how people can see the very same thing, and see them so differently. It's common, expected; as we all have our biases. But I find it incredibly interesting and informative. I'm also reading a book about how to better listen and hear what people are saying (and empathically understand, and no, not mind-reading, lol!), so I WANT to understand how the 'other side' saw things.) My dad and grandma are also 'from the left'. And I respect my Gma more than any other living person. And we share the SAME common, core values. So it always interests me how people of the same mind can see things so differently. I agree that interruptions shouldn't be a part of any of the other debates. We'll see if that happens. And I outlined above what I thought would make for more fair debates (as I viewed Wallace as a lefty, and I think he showed it, but I'm guessing you didn't see him giving un-fair advantages). What would you see as fair for the next two (or more) that need to happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be up to Congress and the WH to sign a bill increasing the size of SC ? I would be against having more then 9 justices. Congress needs to do it's job and legislate not have the SC do their job. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBBills Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 So after last night basically Trump is an idiot who you should just let talk if you want him to lose b/c of the crazy ***** he says, and Biden is a horrible public speaker. Honestly I don't care about public speaking skills since it has no effect on actual problem with this country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SectionC3 Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 Let's just establish a bottom line here. Trump is a scumbag who winks at white supremacists. Trump's supporters, at best, support a scumbag. At worst, they too are scumbags. The debate was a travesty in which Trump's petulance, boorishness, and rudeness deprived the American people of an opportunity for the exchange of ideas with respect to ways in and methods by which our country could be improved. It was a disgrace. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
