September Debate thread

[Ancle Suck]

am i about to learn that immigrants are responsible for abortion?

They became governor of West Virginia so they can decide what babies live right after birth.

 

[Kat]

Man this is painful to listen to.

 

[dimmerwit]

Yes, pay has stagnated while cost of everything has gone up.

"Real" here means inflation adjusted.

 

[Ancle Suck]

LMAO. "There is no state in this union where it's legal to kill a baby after it's born"

 

[Ben]

Love that real-time calling out his bullshit lies.

 

[Kat]

LMAO. "There is no state in this union where it's legal to kill a baby after it's born"

Absolutely bonkers to even claim that.

 

[dimmerwit]

Kamala is finally hitting her stride in terms of delivery.

 

[Kat]

Lol he really doesn't want to answer the question about vetoing an abortion ban.

 

[Ancle Suck]

Trump saying Congress is useless. So I guess people can agree with him there.

 

[Jon]

Does he really think that if he says these lies enough times they'll become real?

"Everyone wanted this back to the states" is one of the biggest disingenuous lies.

 

[Ancle Suck]

Bringing in IVF is a good move here as well.

 

[Ancle Suck]

 

[Kat]

Loool of course he couldn't resist responding about the insult about his rallies.

 

[Rachel]

the thing I hate here is the mismatch of expectations. As long as Trump is coherent (which I believe he is so far, I don't think he has been rattled by anything at least at this point) he'll probably do okay in the post-debate polling. But she has to be on point about everything, she can't be too aggressive as a black woman, etc etc.

 

[Zell 17]

God why the fuck am I watching this where’s the bourbon

Apparently not inside of you yet.

 

[Rachel]

why did he bring up the pet eating thing, totally unforced error

 

[Jon]

He's easily baited.

He's been coherent, but he's lacked substance. I believe she's responding to the lies, and filling in with substance.

Also "EATING THEIR PETS!" is fucking stupidest thing he's EVER said.

But I loved the sly smirk she gave during this response legit laughing at him.

 

[Kat]

Probably anyone who would vote for him will believe that. Or maybe he believes it himself.

 

[Jon]

I also typed that about coherence right before he goes off about eating pets. lol, there's the off your rocker moment.

 

[Rachel]

the lies is another thing (another problem). She has to have mental bandwidth for her talking points AND calling out his lies. He doesn't do the same thing at that level, he doesn't have to

 

[Jon]

I'm not sure you appeal to the middle class by saying "if you don't do what I want i fire you."

Especially not when the same person wants to replace all government jobs with presidential appointed people loyal to the president.

 

[Ancle Suck]

And this is why he wanted no fact checking in the debates.

 

[Rachel]

the middle class is not a monolith. Some of them also like that strongman stuff, which is partially how he got in

 

[Jon]

I think she's handling that well, though. She's calling the lies out and then establishing how the middle class and American people are important to her. I wish she would mention more policy than just saying it, but I'll take it. She's not just getting into the "NO U" argument that he is.

 

[Jon]

the middle class is not a monolith. Some of them also like that strongman stuff, which is partially how he got in

No disagreement here.

 

[Rachel]

lol he can't help but be baited by questions about his money, it's like clockwork

 

[Kat]

"peaceful transfer of power", this should be good.

 

[Ben]

Looool

 

[Zell 17]

He has one line

 

[Ancle Suck]

Nothing but immigrants all day every day.

 

[Zell 17]

“Mr. President, what would you do about the war in Ukraine?”

Trump: “TRANSGENDER CRIMINAL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS ARE EATING YOUR DOGS”

 

[Ancle Suck]

She said the thing! We're not going back!

 

[Kat]

"they're going to perform transgender surgeries on illegal immigrants" is... a statement.

 

[Jon]

lmao... "IT WAS DEBUNKED BY LAURA INGRAHAM, SHAUN HANNITY, JESSE WATTERS!"

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Ancle Suck]

2020 election denials are all the rage.

 

[Jon]

Getting pretty tired that they've let him spout off a lot more than the time he's been allotted and Harris isn't given nearly the same time.

 

[Ben]

How red/flush is Trump? Under his thinning hair and between his eyebrows seems so red compared to the orange.

 

[Kat]

Getting pretty tired that they've let him spout off a lot more than the time he's been allotted and Harris isn't given nearly the same time.

Right? He insisted on muted mics, mute him already.

 

[Rachel]

Biden hates Harris, that tracks right guys

 

[Jon]

Victor Orban is an autocrat that I wouldn't use as evidence that you are well liked.

 

[Jon]

Right? He insisted on muted mics, mute him already.

Or at least give her a chance to rebut!

 

[Zell 17]

Getting pretty tired that they've let him spout off a lot more than the time he's been allotted and Harris isn't given nearly the same time.

It’s probably for the best he sounds like a lunatic

 

[Ancle Suck]

Israel & Palestine.

Trump: PUTIN!

 

[Rachel]

hey guys Trump has been pretty good at predictions so far in his life right

 

[Jon]

It’s probably for the best he sounds like a lunatic

Maybe so... but time allowed to speak is important in this.

 

[Kat]

It’s probably for the best he sounds like a lunatic

I was wondering if they were letting him run on a bit for that reason, since the Harris campaign didn't want the muted mics.

 

[Zell 17]

Spheres of TERRA

 

[Ancle Suck]

So he said Russia wouldn't have invaded and that Harris will destroy the entire middle east.

And that he would resolve the wars on day 1. Without saying how.

 

[Jon]

"If you're president how would you end the fight?"

"Well let me tell you, if I were president it wouldn't have happened.

Also, Putin, and she hates Israel."

No answer there at all...
