  5. Welp after about 18 minutes I had to stop watching. Shame on the Democrats for letting this man run again. I wouldn’t vote for Trump under any circumstance… but anyone watching that who was undecided will either stay home or vote Trump. Neither of these men are mentally healthy but only one is lucid enough to answer questions.

    May god have mercy on us all.

  10. America is fucked. Biden is not strong and Trump is lying in every sentence that he speaks. We need to toss them both to the curb and start over. Barring that, I’ll take grandpa over the scumbag every day.

  12. Biden is missing half the lies, Jesus. What happened to the fact checking?

  13. I could never ever vote for Trump under any circumstances, but I am blown away by how sick and/or old Biden is sounding.

    I am annoyed that there’s zero fact checking. Trump is just spewing whatever he wants and while Biden is clearly trying to counter, he is just so difficult to listen to and it doesn’t land with any oomph at all.

    There’s still time for Trump to get angry and go off, but it’s not a guarantee if no one pushes back on what he says.

    ETA: many people have replied to this comment because I’ve gotten several notifications, but I cannot see a single one here at all. That being said, I can at least see the beginnings of the comments and sort of figure out what y’all were saying or asking. So to reply to some of those:

    1. I very rarely watch live news ever, so this was the first time I’ve seen Biden like this personally. His team clearly does a good job moving things forward and running his accounts and have a united front. I’d still rather have Biden’s team than Trump’s team.

    2. The person who says they care about democracy so they’re voting for Trump… that’s sad. He reminds me of kids in middle school running for fake class president and making ridiculous promises like “oh yeah?! Well if I’m president then all the vending machines will be FREE!!” Even though none of that shit would ever happen.

    3. I don’t understand the point of the debate moderators at all. They may as well have been time keepers only. I believe I heard Tapper in the beginning even tell Trump he didn’t care what he said during his time speaking.

    4. I didn’t have swapping out the democratic candidate on my bingo card this year but it’s all the CNN talking heads can talk about post debate. I’ve never seen anything like it. And frankly… Biden stepping aside might be for the best at this point.

    5. I’m fucking livid that these are the choices.

  16. Biden has not been a great President because he makes every decision. He has been a great President because he surrounds himself with great management, and lets them manage. The American people at large, unfortunately, will not understand this.

  17. Trump: “We had H2O.” See, he also says bizarre crap.

  18. In hindsight he should have considered taking some drugs for the debate

  20. Comments here are a lot of predictable agitprop garbage from accounts who either (a) never post here or (b) post in conservative subreddits frequently.

    Nobody saying “Biden is done for” is watching the actual debate. If they are, they’re lying or just really hate Biden and are not capable of viewing the debate rationally.

    Biden has hit Trump on a number of really important points and is actually answering the questions posed to him. Trump is incoherent and rambling as usual, and he’s getting worse as time goes on.

    The absurd melodramatic dooming is being done with a specific purpose, and that purpose isn’t being truthful.

  21. Watching this debate it seems like he drank some spiked, sleepy tea or something.

  24. He should try better drugs. What a disaster this was for Biden

  27. After watching that debate, I really wish he was jacked up..

    What a fuckin’ disgrace that was..

  29. This debate confirmed what I already knew deep inside. One candidate is a perpetual narcissistic liar who cares only about himself and the other while having good intentions is too old to keep it together.

  31. Trump stood up there and lied through his teeth but you guys are saying Biden lost? He said “only a few people” stormed the capitol on January 6th, THAT WAS NOT A FEW PEOPLE. Biden hit him with counterpoint talking about policy and his plans. Trump said nothing up there of substance
