“There’s 525 kids lost their parents —“

“GOOD.”

Welker is awful. #Bothsides crap

she's keeping him from talking constantly, though.

i guess the mute/rules are doing a lot, too.

Lincoln standing on Trump's shoulders.

The possible exception of Abraham Lincoln

disagree, KM!

Did he just literally say he has Black friends?

And there's Central Park Five

lol at Trump and Biden arguing about which of them thought Biden's racist crime bill was worse

does Trump look short of breath at all, has he clutched his chest at any point, has he coughed up something that looked bloody, has he been given last rites, is there a hand reaching down from the Heavens at all

He ran in 1999.

Finally! The laptop makes an appearance!

The Laptop from Hell

"Good."

Fried Pigs Matter vs. The Poor Boys

Well I guess we know what clip is gonna be all over the news the next few days

Biden wants the Po' Boys to stand down and stand ready

Little Freudian slip there

The least racist person in the room - I can't see the audience because it's so dark

Willie and the poor boys

Dog whistle as big as a fog horn

Supposedly he said “go ahead?” I dunno, I couldn’t take more than a couple minutes at a time.

The least racist person in the room - I can't see the audience because it's so dark

Swear to God, I was about half-expecting him to ask the audience to smile.

love trump's repeated attacks on biden for not "getting it done" during his 8 years as vice president, on issues that trump disagrees with and hasn't tried to do himself

We have so many different programs

Biden should respond by pointing out how powerless and cucked Mike Pence is

Dogwhistle like a foghorn doesn’t stand up to any scrutiny when you break it down.

god, how i wish biden would simply say:

we have the lowest emissions of 35 years, this year, because of covid-19's impact on the economy.

sic, i'm with you - he fucking blows on climate change

i expect to be enraged with him over the next 4 years, just sayin

This wasn’t done by smart people, this wasn’t done by — anybody!

Well even though I’m not really watching I’m getting good updates from the NYTimes:

Patti Cohen, National Economics Correspondent

This is a substantive, civil debate – and that could help Trump in that his erratic and divisive style has turned off some voters.

how does biden get wrong a line that has been everywhere

"I know more about hot air than you do."

oh yes, wind is too expensive

looooooooool what a doof

"Wind kills all the birds"!

I still don't understand, at all, what the rationale is behind news anchors and organisations giving someone uninterrupted time to lie.

trump declares that biden will destroy the oil industry.

"will you remember that, texas, will you remember that, oklahoma?"

looool

this is pathetic

Well.. it wasn't quite the shitshow everyone was hoping for.

With Texas on the edge, Biden saying basically “yeah, we wanna take you out” was a HUGE gaffe.

Ugh. I feel like Trump goaded Biden into telling the truth -- that, in the long run, we are going to have to transition to primarily renewable energy production -- and that truth is going to help Trump more than any of the immensely stupid falsehoods Trump uttered tonight is going to help Biden.

i didn't even catch whatever you're talking about

i have been drinking tho

xp

Biden had already said that renewable jobs are $50 an hour jobs; it was a big fuckup not to reiterate that after the Houston attack from Trump.

Biden should be better at this than he is. Nearly every time Trump pivoted, Joe ran after the pivot point to rebut, like a cat after earbuds. Pretty poor performance, really.

True, especially since there have been huge layoffs in the oil biz very recently

xp

The good news is almost no one made it to the end of the debate.

Funniest part of this debate was when Biden said to Trump "I don't where you come from," and Trump responded under his breath "Queens."

*don't know

nothing about this performance is going to help or hurt anybody. the cake is baked, people know who they're voting for at this point.

basically the fact that Biden didn't get trounced in any of the two debates, and that Trump had negative takeaways from his first debate and his townhall = the outcome we wanted.

now to avoid any October surprises for a week and a half.

now let's hurry up and get him in office, and then before long we'll be on Biden's ass, like we should be
