OFFICIAL DEBATE DRINKING THREAD

[TDub]

thats the best this country can do? What a fuckin joke

He did have a cold and it took him 20 minutes to get his voice back.
Best economy in our lifetime. Best crime rate, etc. A good president relies on competence.

when I have a cold I generally still know where the fuck I am and what I'm doing. Even if my voice sucks.

My issue wasn't with the performance of his vocal cords

[pdub]

I don’t think it’s the best economy in our lifetime at all.

[TDub]

You have a choice between a fascist nightmare and a democracy.

my goodness, how many times should I repeat the same thing?

it's willful ignorance to not acknowledge the validity of my statement at this point.

I'm done though, carry on.

It really is.
We didn’t have a choice for another candidate to face Trump.

This doesn’t sway my previous decision for a write in.

I'll have whatever Gavin Newsom is smoking.

I'm relieved to learn Trump isn't a fascist, thanks.

Crap

[pdub]

First USMNT team looses to a mediocre Panama because of a red card and now a fucking psychopath just got closer to the presidency.

Shitty Thursday.

But it is. Unemployment under 4% for more consecutive months since the 1950s. The president doesn't actually do much except appoint competent advisors. We came off a a coups, a 1,000,000 dead, disastrous foreign policy which is including a nuclear capable Iran and NK. The country is stabilized and the American economy is actually stabilizing the world economy. UK got its conservative Brexit disaster and doubled down into disaster. The level of evil possible in a Trump second dictatorship is inestimable. You all better work harder to see it doesn't happen. I will. Look at Moody's economic forecasts. We are the envy of the world, and about the only economy that has managed to climb free of COVID. But whining about choice fixes everything.

I admire your spirit, Sparko.

It should be mandatory that both parties present a minimum of, I dunno, five candidates for presidency at every primary and there should be three plus debates.

[Sparko]

We have no choice but to support democracy. This "great man" theory crap must go. Carter tried to micromanage everything as a young president. Better staff would have helped him.

Make it so. The Boomers need to be supplanted by competent younger leaders. This is the last gasp of the Boomer dictatorship ploy. Must get beyond this election.

Nothing I said is in defense of Trump, I fail to understand how and why you continue to misconstrue my point and can only assume it's because you have no other avenue for disagreement with the statement.

VP Harris being interviewed on CNN

She should have debated donnie

[pdub]

Harris comes in strong.

[Shirley]

Chris Cillizza is not a flame thrower, but sadly, he is right.

Incredibly bad. Shockingly bad.

Joe Biden's utterly disastrous debate performance
