Kansas Crimson

His debate performance is going to be like very rudimentary computer programming: [if X, then = "RADICAL SOCIALIST LEFT OF BERNIE"; if Y, then = "CHINA PUPPET"] and so on.

he’s just going to sit up there and lie, as per usual

Biden will try to call him out, as will the moderator/s (hopefully)

but it won’t matter, cuz he’ll back up his lies by claiming fake news, alternative facts, “other” people he’s spoken with, or books/manuals/reports that he had supposedly read but can’t produce

his base will eat it up, and anyone that doesn’t do the fact-checking themselves will, again, be at risk of getting duped by the used car salesman carnival barker

Not that JFK wasn't a pussy grabber himself but.....




Some of DJT's finer quotes......

"Our country is in serious trouble. We don't have victories any more. We used to have victories but [now] we don't have them. When was the last time anybody saw us beating, let's say, China, in a trade deal? They kill us. I beat China all the time. All the time."

"Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on."

“Why are we having all these people from shithole countries coming here?”

“North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un just stated that the “Nuclear Button is on his desk at all times.” Will someone from his depleted and food starved regime please inform him that I too have a Nuclear Button, but it is a much bigger & more powerful one than his, and my Button works!”

“We’ve got to take care of the floors. The floors of the forest.”

and rake ‘em, like Finland

“I never understood wind. You know, I know windmills very much”

“But they’re manufactured - tremendous, if you’re into this, tremendous fumes, gases are spewing into the atmosphere. You know we have a world, right? So the world is tiny compared to the universe. So [a] tremendous, tremendous amount of fumes and everything - you talk about the “carbon footprint” - fumes are spewing into the air, right? Spewing. Whether it’s in China, Germany, it’s going into the air. It’s our air, their air, everything, right?”

i feel dumber just typing that last one

Holy shit what a disaster of a Town Hall for Trump.

There’s 0 chance that town hall helped him. 0.

He’s going to get absolutely destroyed in the debates.

I still can’t believe there is going to be debates.......

He didn't say anything to alienate his base. Maybe he could get some swing voters to buy the BS. No loose situation for him.

Have the debates been scheduled? Would not surprise me if there are none this go-round.

9/29
10/15
10/22

ok, thanks

Although I’d guess that Trump backs out of #2 and #3.

The 1st is moderated by Fox News

And not fact checked.

Yep. Trump will claim victory and say there is no need for more debates

It's not possible to alienate his base. They are not listening at all and don't care. The more evidence they are provided, the more they dig their heels in.

But everyone who isn't his base saw the disaster that it was. He is completely unfit to be our President and has no legitimate answers on how to fix anything.

The problem is that Trump is not smart. Take his continued crowing about approval rating within the Republican party, and his open malaise about expanding his base.

He hears some people cheering for him - millions of people! - and think that means everyone. It does not.

There's a reason his enablers (foreign and domestic) are trying so hard to game the election. He will get blasted into hell in a fair election, because he had no margin for error in winning the last one, and he has only lost support since then.

i’m more excited for the VP debate...partly cuz it’s taking place just down the road, but mainly cuz i think Harris is gonna own pence
