*****************************
Ready for the debate between an opportunistic, non-ideological nut job who earns big negatives and who favors lots of sensible polices,
and
a progressive, far left whack job who is against everything America has always stood for and that made us what we are, and who USED to favor all sorts of nutty ideas but now does not, but she “has not changed her core values.”
We shall see how “fair and balanced” the moderators are.
I sure hope they ask what kind of tree Kamala would like to be and what is her favorite ice cream.
Kamala looking good in her stylish, pant suit with the see-through top.Trump thought about groping her when she walked by, but resisted the temptation.
Since Harris was given the dem nomination ABC news media reports on her have been 100% positive and 94% negative on Trump. Of course this will be a fair and balanced debate (choking…..).
First, The odds of Trump going unhinged are higher than Kamala having an incoherent laughing fit or a Joe Biden moment.
Second, look for a hidden microphone in Kamala’s ear (which will be very hard to see because of her long hair). The mic will be her handlers telling her what to say.
In an unusual and unprecended twist, the moderators have told the candidates there will be no questions about issues. Instead, the two candidates will be playing a game of Jeopardy! and they have to phrase their answers in the form of a question. After the commercial break the will reveal the seven categories.
Kamala shocks the moderators when she says that to get Putin to end the war on Ukraine, she will ask him if “he wants some of this” and points some where below the podium.
Trump say he thinks Putin has better taste than that.
he needs to say that it would hamper all future presidents to live by Biden’s policy, which is why he and Republicans opposed it, and it would have have stemmed illegal immigration
Now Harris is getting cheeky and Trump is going off topic and generalized. Should not have brought up Springfield…Harris is acting smug and condescending.
Ironically, I don’t think the pets thing is a bad thing for Trump. People are genuinely upset about it, and there was a picture that was legit of the illegal with the goose.
Mess with peoples pets and they get pissed. Plus all the memes. I think its a net win subject for Trump
If I was a boxing trainer watching a fight I would throw the towel in for Trump. Trump was not prepared for this.
And Harris did not have to do anything…she looked silly, anxious and ill prepared herself…but Trump is embarrassing himself by going all over the place with topics.
If J6 was a rebellion it was literally the worst one in all human history. No weapons. No plans. No premeditation. WTF, how can they call that a rebellion.
Trump is completely on defensive….the entire night. I don’t know how much this changes the dynamic of the race because Harris didn’t have to do anything other than that giving us that smirk and smile every time Trump speaks.
I know that a lot of times we makes jokes here, and trash each other, but this election really matters. I have two young boys. 8 and 10. A country where Kamala Harris is President, heck, a country where someone so unqualified like Kamala Harris can become President will shape their lives in a dramatically negative way.
I can’t believe anyone here who says the country will be the same with her, or without her. Because it won’t. She is lying. All the insane, leftist, marxists, socialist, whatever ist word you want to use, will be put in place, and it will not only ruin this country, but make this country nearly unlivable for them.
What I am seeing from comments that friends are sending me is that Harris has literally ZERO expectations. No one expects her to do well. She doesn’t need to articulate her positions or policies. All she was programmed to do was say, Trump is bad for America, Trump is bad for you, Trump is bad. And that is her entire platform
sometimes I think maybe Trump doesn’t want to be President, he just likes being in the limelight…though this is his last hour in the limelight. If he loses, Republicans will not nominate an 82 year old two time loser.
The one thing Trump has going for him is that, unless he totally fails tonight, I am not sure it affects the outcome. Everyone knows him after 8 years. They know what he is like at a debate. They are going to vote their pocketbook, not this debate, UNLESS, he totally blows it. Does anything think he’s totally blowing it??
of course she did. I bet she doesn’t know even one of their names. I hope he takes advantage of this. How the he double hockey sticks did she blame Trump for their horrible withdrawal. He hadn’t been President for seven months.
This has not been either an impressive or informative debate. Harris has been coached to sound empathetic and caring. Trump comes across as belligerent.
President Trump is not blowing it. He is being pretty much the way he always is.
Both sides will claim victory. The Trump side will point out the ABC moderator’s complete pro-Harris bias. I don’t think anyone’s mind will be changed and both sides will gear up for a sprint to the finish line. The trendline favored Trump over the last several days and, after to pause of a week or so, the trendline for Trump will pick up again.
Neither wants to tell us what they will do next 4 years.
_______________
I am sure that ANY and EVERY R candidate for president would have done just as badly as TRUMP in articulating the conservative/non-whack-a-doodle position vis a vis Kamala the progressive. (sarc/off)
Probably Marv is right, that nothing will change because of this debate. However, I don’t always like how the Queens Trump comes across. I support him for his policies and actions, not always his words.
That’s where I was going with my comment. I doubt anyone’s mind will changed by this debate. It was a 15 round fight with no clear winner. That is all that Trump needed to maintain his underlying lead on the basic issues of the election.
This was a debate that Trump lost. Pure and simple for lack of preparedness. Harris didn’t do anything special other than let Trump dig himself in one hole after to hole. But on the other hand, Harris looked every bit as a scorned wife hearing the judge l;owering the boom on her ex during divorce hearings….D’s will love it but will undecideds?
That smirk, snicker and leer was oft-putting from her. She didn’t do anything tonight other than let Trump embarrass himself for lack of being ready. She didn’t really elevate herself but let Trump depress himself.
A bad debate….perhaps Harris gains a point or a point and half and nothing more. But a big disappointment from both camps especially from Trump.
Time to got forward….and PS-don’t bother watching the other channels….this will pass.
Independent news saying it was a 3 to 1 advantage for Harris in how the moderators became her “wingmen,” only fact-checking Trump not Harris throughout the debate. In fact killing live babies did happen in Minnesota, a statement the moderators erroneously fact-checked as “wrong.”

President Trump was totally in character the whole night. We saw nothing new or out of the ordinary. He was simply Trump being Trump.
Harris, on the other hand spent the entire evening smirking and provoking a fight.
All President Trump had to do was not blow it. Mission accomplished.

Probably Marv is right, that nothing will change because of this debate. However, I don’t always like how the Queens Trump comes across. I support him for his policies and actions, not always his words.

Harris is such a con artist. She espouses core values when she has none.

3 1/2 years is a good rebuttal

janzam,
That’s where I was going with my comment. I doubt anyone’s mind will changed by this debate. It was a 15 round fight with no clear winner. That is all that Trump needed to maintain his underlying lead on the basic issues of the election.

VictrC,
It was Trump’s closing statement where he asked repeatedly why she didn’t do all the things already that she plans to do on “Day One”.

This was a debate that Trump lost. Pure and simple for lack of preparedness. Harris didn’t do anything special other than let Trump dig himself in one hole after to hole. But on the other hand, Harris looked every bit as a scorned wife hearing the judge l;owering the boom on her ex during divorce hearings….D’s will love it but will undecideds?
That smirk, snicker and leer was oft-putting from her. She didn’t do anything tonight other than let Trump embarrass himself for lack of being ready. She didn’t really elevate herself but let Trump depress himself.
A bad debate….perhaps Harris gains a point or a point and half and nothing more. But a big disappointment from both camps especially from Trump.
Time to got forward….and PS-don’t bother watching the other channels….this will pass.

The ending statement won the debate. Close imo. But the smirking and facial expressions by quemala were negatives.

Independent news saying it was a 3 to 1 advantage for Harris in how the moderators became her “wingmen,” only fact-checking Trump not Harris throughout the debate. In fact killing live babies did happen in Minnesota, a statement the moderators erroneously fact-checked as “wrong.”

Some good signs for Ayotte.
She won handily, 2-1 against a good candidate, Chuck Morse.
More votes in the R primary.
Dem primary was bitterly contested, the winner didn’t get 50%, only won by 6, lots of hard feelings.
The R primary for HD 1 is a dogfight, 1300 votes separates the first place from the third place.
