Quote from: Donald Trump’s Toupée on September 29, 2020, 07:09:27 PM
Let’s all be brutally honest - we are watching this first presidential debate for all the car crashes.

Donald Trump is a United States made Hummer. Joe Biden is a Soviet automobile. I lived in Moscow right at the downfall of the Soviet Union - brace yourselves.

This, but ironically for expectations game reasons.

All my Republican friends are hellbent that Trump is going to crush biden lol.

This reminds me of the state of play before the first debate in 2016. All the most fervent Hillary supporters I knew were certain that she was going to destroy Trump.

I mean, she did, and post-debate polls show the public thought she did as well, and she saw a significant bump in the polls that lasted until mid-October. Point is, you can win a debate and lose the election, but Hillary still did win that debate.

"That was said sarcastically." - So why say it at all?

He says what he means and he means what he says. Also he doesn't want anyone to panic.

Trump has addressed someone named "Jim" three times. No idea who he's talking about. Biden?

Lmao this is effing nuts. Trump is like a ten year old kid talking sh-t in a COD lobby somehow found his way to a presidential debate.

I can definitely see Trump trying to get Biden SWATed during one of the debates.

I don't care how biased or unbiased you are, Trump's answer on white supremacists was a disaster.

This Tesla shareholder would like to unironically thank President Trump for saying he loves electric cars on national tv.

Anecdotally, the most used phrase tonight in my household of me, my parents, my dog, and my cat was "SHUT UP!" I imagine we were not alone.

CNN INSTANT POLL: 60% say Biden won, 28% say Trump

JESUS

I have a feeling that, despite the online discussion, viewership probably skewed heavily Democratic. We saw it in the debates in 2016 and we saw it in the conventions.

Funny how I haven't heard any Trump supporters say Biden was on drugs. New talking points incoming.
