Haven't watched CNN in months but Jake Tapper's opening at the close of the debate was epic.

Trump made a fool of himself. Biden managed to hold his own.

Now I understand the need for a "safe space." I feel bad for all the times I called people snowflakes.

Welp, Biden on that pretty handily.

Not even close.




More people should be reflecting on Trump's refusal to say he will peacefully transition. That is the thing that keeps Democracies successful. Once there's turmoil in the transition between governments it's all down hill.

the Democrats/lefties refused to peacefully transition power many years ago - riots and #resisting the election result since 2016 by biden supporters

not much in the way of riots after prior elections. did trump voters not vote at all in those prior years for any other candidate?

its too bad 3rd parties are being left off the ballot in many states mostly accountable to the actions of the DNC getting them blocked over technicalities

Well... that was indeed a shitshow. Unfortunately less entertaining than I had hoped for. :ph34r:

I get what Trump was trying to do, be really aggressive, throw Biden off his balance and not let him get his footing back, dominate him. But it was far too much, so that Trump came across as rude, obnoxious and unhinged. He really didnt do himself any favors tonight. This was not a performance that convinced any true swing voters or undecideds to go with Trump.

Biden was kinda low energy and mediocre, but he held up fairly well, and that was all he needed to do. He exceeded the low expectations I had for him, albeit not by much.

On the substance, I think both candidates had the upper hand on the issues we expected them to - Trump on the courts, the economy and law&order, Biden on covid, healthcare and racial justice. Overall, Biden's arguments were cogent slightly more often than Trump's.




From a strategical point of view, this was a big win for the Biden campaign. The raw outcome was either a small Biden win or a draw, while Trump would have needed a big win. Now, he has wasted his best remaining chance to turn this race around, and his performance tonight might even have further hurt his standing. I cant really imagine anyone who wasnt already a hardcore MAGA person to have liked what they saw and heard from their president tonight. This debate performance by Trump will not play well in the suburbs or among college-educate conservatives.
