Final Debate

[Mik]

It has, exceptTrump has kind of gone off the rails on minutiae from time to time.

[jon-nyc]

I only watched a bit of it but it seemed a far better debate than last time.

@George-K said in Final Debate:

Biden is quite on point.

Not right, but not addled or feeble.

He was off two days for prep.

[jon-nyc]

I didn't hear any Hunter Biden references. But I only watched the last 20m and maybe 2m in the middle of the first half hour.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure it came up probably multiple times, I just didn't catch it.

[Axtremus]

Trump talked quite a few times about the Bidens' supposed deals with foreign entities, accusing the Bidens of taking money from foreign entities. Biden denied having done so.

The moderator, as best she could, pulled the debate back to policy matters.

[jon-nyc]

Hey Larry, who won the debate?

[jon-nyc]

From what I glean from Twitter there doesn’t seem to be anything about this debate that will still be a subject of discussion in 48 hours.

Agree? Disagree?

[Mik]

Agreed. Neither one did great or particularly badly. Biden did show pretty convincingly that the dementia thing is nonsense. Trump hammered on him pretty well on some key issues, but at other times went a bit off the rails on tiny, meaningless things.

The number of people that have early voted so far is a stunner.

[Doctor Phibes]

Trump: "We've rounded the corner [on coronavirus] - it's going away"

That's clearly complete bullshit.

Biden: "The coronavirus spikes are in red states"

That's bullshit too.

I wish these assholes could be honest about something this important.

[Mik]

Yeah, and that was the very next sentence after Biden said "I don't see things in red and blue states, I see the United States".

[Mik]

The other weakness was his claim that he would lock down the virus, not the country. No detail whatsoever. in short, they will both do the same things.

What does it matter anyway? Over 25% of the ballots are already cast.

Bad for the country. Good for many people, but bad for the country.

[Doctor Phibes]

You've probably got the world's longest election campaigns. Voting a little early isn't going to change much.

You yourself stated that there should be no “undecided voter” at this point, that anyone still “undecided” is too dumb to be allowed to vote anyway. If everyone should have “decided” already, then you have no ground to complain that they have already cast their ballots.

I am getting confused over one thing, though. Is Joe a puppet whose alzheimer’s rattled brain will allow his handlers to pull his strings or is he the criminal mastermind working with Russian Oligarchs and Chinese businesses to amass great wealth?

@LuFins-Dad, Joe is the savior through whom God will redeem the Republic and smite the Russian and Chinese neo-commies. If you really must believe that Joe cannot function without his “handlers,” know that Joe’s puppeteer is the Judeo-Christian God. Feel better now?

Yeah, that thought had crossed my mind too.

On the plus side, there's a real chance that Donald Trump will once again show that he is greater than any of his predecessors. After all, how many presidents have successfully won election campaigns for both parties?

It's how they have cast their ballots - mail in for most - and the little things that do turn elections.

Reckon any voters are having buyer's remorse after finding out about The Big Man?
