What are you watching? Trump refuses to let Biden talk and refusing to let your opponent talk is a sign that you are losing.

Can't keep his composure against Trump in debate.

Expect to handle Putin, Kim Jong, and President Xi

If someone is talking over you and not letting you get a word in edgewise of course you are going to tell them to shut up. It's a debate, not a one man show for Trump. You people are insufferable.

Trump's strategy here is to be disruptive and annoying to distract from the issues of the debate.

Biden giving it back to Trump. Thank ing Christ. Keep saying stuff like "No one can get a word in with this clown" trust me.... it helps

I think most people watching this debate save for extreme Trump supporters would like Trump to shut up and stop interrupting so they can hear some actual answers in this debate. Biden is speaking for half of the country.

"I'm letting people out of jail now."

Big, if true.

Without context that statement doesn't sound too good.

How hard is it to condemn white supremacists? That's not a hard question.

LOL at Trump going on about "stupid bastards". He really is taking an keyboard commando approach to this debate.

Trump admitted that he is counting on the court deciding this election.

So now Trump is telling his supporters to disrupt polling places "by poll watching". That's just code for intimidation.

So Trump didn't prepare at all and just decided to shout, delay, and wing it?

That's really the only strategy he has. He can't debate issues, so he has to try and disrupt the entire debate in order to distract from the questions.

"Would you shut up, man" = Liberal's conception of Patience and Equanimity


What else is a person to say if someone won't let them talk?

Obama's first debate performance in 2012 was panned for being too lethargic. These days that performance would be considered stellar in comparison to what Trump did tonight.
