Sep. 29th 2020 Presidential Debate Discussion

[M2Dave]

This debate is already juicy.

 

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

Round One goes to Biden, in spite of all the stammering.

Trump is the king of shooting himself in the foot.

Now comes the Corona questions.

This is fucking embarrassing.
You low-key Trump people are lucky I'm not drinking tonight or you'd all be getting the IS THIS YOUR KING treatment from one end of this forum to the other.

What a piece of selfish, self-serving dogshit.

"Remember, I brought back football."

-Your Billionaire President, who recently paid a total of $750 in taxes in 2016 and 2017.

(THIS MAN IS BARF)

I'm dumbfounded that Trump isn't hammering on his most substantial point thus far (in my estimation). A discussion surrounding the impact of an additional 8% to the corporate rate proposed by Biden would be something I'd have liked explored.

 

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

This is absolutely nuts.

Trump throws the big punch about Hunter Biden, and Joe completely no-sells it.

I agree. I was expecting him to jump on that one, but to no avail.

"YOU CAN'T SAY LAW ENFORCEMENT, JOE"
Like he's gonna summon the fucking Candyman in a patrol uniform if he does.

Jesus Christ.

[Dankster Morgan]

Trump getting asked about global warming reminds me of that scene in Sunny when they were baiting Mac into saying he doesn't believe in evolution lmao

 

[Anarchist_Gib]

I'm surprised that Trump is letting pass Biden's mention of providing tax incentives after admonishing them in the beginning.

 

[Infamous718]

Trump is a disgrace

 

[Anarchist_Gib]

What a shitshow.

“Zip em’ uppppppp!”

I'm surprised that Trump is letting pass Biden's mention of providing tax incentives after admonishing them in the beginning.

I honestly think he was surprised that he wasn’t dealing with a punching bag and fell apart.

He let everyone around him and his supporters get into his head convincing him that he was just going to walk in there and bully dude, I myself thought bro was going to walk up there and forget his own name but man I’m glad I was wrong lol.

Why is it so hard for trump to say white supremacists are bad

 

[Rodney Quillz]

Why is it so hard for trump to say white supremacists are bad

Because he needs their votes.

 

[Second Saint]

Why is it so hard for trump to say white supremacists are bad

Yeah, I liked how when asked openly about condemning white supremacist groups, he said he'd do it, then never did it.

And fuck it looks like the Proud Boys are absolutely loving the Stand Back, Stand By like it's their new fucking slogan :/

 

[M2Dave]

Because he needs their votes.

I agree, but let us not act as though Biden did not need AntiFa's votes. Politics is a dirty business.

What a shitshow.

Well-said.

Trump's interruptions were obnoxious, but I wonder how the public will perceive Biden's reactions (i.e., liar, racist, clown, fool, shut up, etc).

I think that the debate ended in a tie, and because Biden leads in the polls, he wins by default.

 

[Infamous718]

because he's one em

 

[Blade4693]

What a fucking embarrassment that was. It played out how I suspected it would though. When you start dealing with a clown you're gonna get a circus.

A tie implies both neither won nor lost. Both showed themselves to be petty fools and acted like toddlers on stage. Just a disgrace. I feel they both lost, tbh.

However, technically speaking you are correct that that means Biden "won."

 

[NaCl man]

That was ...interesting. did Biden say antifa doesn't exist its just an idea?

 

[CrimsonShadow]

I agree, but let us not act as though Biden did not need AntiFa's votes. Politics is a dirty business.

Biden doesn't need Antifa's votes.

No one knows how many of them there are or even say what they've done.. Yet they end up being compared to groups that have lynched thousands of people over the years. When Biden tells Antifa to "Stand by" maybe they'll be further discussion about what they could do, but somehow I don't see that happening.

 

[M2Dave]

Yes, but the mainstream media is predictably only focusing on the Trump's "stack back and stand by" statement.

As you can see from the partisanship on this website alone, both sides are already claiming that their candidate won. LOL.

The fact that Trump and Biden are on the debate stage is poignant. Trump is a provocateur while Biden has 200 recovery frames after every long word. As much as tonight's circus show is entertaining, I had much rather see an intellectual debate between two thinkers like Ron Paul and Berni Sanders, but the American people get what they have voted for.

 

[CrimsonShadow]

No, you've got that wrong (as always). Biden was quoting Trump's own FBI director.

FBI director says antifa is an ideology, not an organization

WASHINGTON (AP) — FBI Director Chris Wray told lawmakers Thursday that antifa is an ideology, not an organization, delivering testimony that puts him at odds with President Donald Trump, who has said he would designate it a terror group.

Ron Paul, a thinker. Good one.

Irrespective of the denomination, someone is responsible for the burning, looting, shooting, etc. throughout the protests.

No matter how impartial you call the debate, one can never please the ideologues.
