Debate day….

I think Manchin did pretty well tonight.

And with this clown show, the Republican party is dead. They are going to lose house senate and Oval Office for many many years to come. Sane people, for which still hold the majority of this country , are not going to let these dreadful people govern anything. Even with your electoral college, which has been to only way republicans can win anything the last 25 years.
Lindsey Graham, the biggest pussy in America, was right about one thing some seven years ago. -
Speaking of sane people, how's your therapy going?

I didn't catch much of the debate, just the closing. So I'll take your word that Vivek's performance soured you... that being said, he seems to be trending well online today, perhaps he's picking up the Trump crowd and can run with it. Maybe he's playing 5D chess and getting the Trump support then he'll convert back to a conservative Obama for the GOP.

This commentator thought Haley won. She's probably still my first choice. From what I've read this morning, a lot of younger voters still like Vivek.

His clear contradictions turned me off. I liked his attack on the Trump/Pence administration over the incredible deficit spending even before COVID, but then a few minutes later he’s calling Trump the greatest republican president of the century (which, by the way, he’s one of only 2…)
Personally? DeSantis did better but he started off like a very bad robot impression and his responses actually sounded like ChatGPT. He has made a mistake by not aggressively attacking Trump. This DEI and Trans Idealogy crap didn’t start under his administration, but it surely flourished in the schools durin the DeVos years. And beyond that he needs to attack the shutdowns and directly tie all of those policies to Trump.
Christie was horrible, but he did find some footing with the Pence defense and I thought it was a particularly human moment when he started to raise his hand about supporting Trump then waffled. His statement about not allowing this behavior to continue was weak, but was the only attempt by anybody to really start to address the issue.
I actually came out liking Hutchison. He has no chance, but he stood by his guns. And in everything else not Trump related he came across well.
But yeah, Haley came across the best.
