    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.

      Hey Larry, who won the debate?

      Only non-witches get due process.

        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?

          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.

            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.

            I was only joking

              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".

                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.

                      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?

                                    Of the 50 million votes cast, my guess that only about 10% are following this story at all. And for most of them, it matters not.

                                      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.

                                      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?

                                      Gee, maybe Mike Pence should have waited longer less he finds out any new, last minute revelations about the candidates that would afflict hi with buyer’s remorse.

                                        Of the 50 million votes cast, my guess that only about 10% are following this story at all. And for most of them, it matters not.

                                        Since Joe's running against such a scrupulously honest and ethical businessman, surely any suggestion of impropriety could have a huge impact?

                                        I was only joking

                                          Honestly the provenance of that story is too suspect for people not already submersed in right wing media and ideology. Add to that we have a quarter century of Biden’s tax returns that allow us to see his sources of income.

                                          One of the problems with Trump spending so much time immersed in FoxNews, OANN, and right wing twitter is he’ll make references that are relatively obscure to those outside of it. (AOC plus three? How many suburban voters in PA know what that means?). This was an issue in him bringing up Hunter last night:

                                          . All of the emails, the emails, the horrible emails of the kind of money that you were raking in, you and your family. And Joe, you were vice-president when some of this was happening, and it should have never happened. And I think you owe an explanation to the American people. Why is it—somebody just had a news conference a little while ago who was essentially supposed to work with you and your family, but what he said was damning

                                          That was his attack.

                                          Only non-witches get due process.
