NBC News Townhall Thread

[solidcoalition]

Between Savannah Guthrie, the boycottNBC backlash, the twitter NY Post blackout and the Webster online dictionary changing definitions hours after words used by Amy Coney Barrett, this week has been unapologetically bias against Trump and I’m not sure it will work to the media or Biden’s benefit.

The Trump victim card doesn't work. He's been playing it for four years now and no one has been swayed. If he ever took winning this election seriously then he would've acted like an adult.

Donald Trump is his own worst enemy.

And our greatest weapon in ending his presidency.

[Hindsight was 2020]

It’s not a trainwreck. Better than the “I was a widower” sob stories from Joe Biden. Trump goes into hostile environments, and that takes courage.

You’re a bad person

Most midwestern Americans have zero clue what Qon is.

Took 20 minutes for voters to begin asking questions.  This is a hit piece if I’ve ever seen one!

That’s okay, it makes the media looks bad.

Retweets officially =/= endorsements.

Riiiiight. He's not endorsing the stuff he retweets. He's JAQing off.

Being asked questions is not a hit piece. Sounds like Trump isn't POTUS material if he can't handle softballs like "Will you commit to a peaceful transfer of power?"

Savannah does need to tone it down a bit.

NYT is running a live blog with people watching both town halls: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/10/15/us/politics/town-halls.html

This moderator is such a hack.  Let the voters speak, we didn’t come hear to listen to you all night.

"1944 has been so biased against Germany, I'm not sure how it will work to the Allies' benefit"

Yeah, she needs to knock it off.

Facts have a well known liberal bias.

Also,  have you stopped crying yet?

"Socialists'" weird fetishizing of Trump continues.

The "I'm a socialist but I have nothing bad to say about Trump" grift has been around since at least 2015. Very strange.

Some of them are "accelerationists" who want him to win because they think it will speed up "the revolution."

Some of them see it as an "enemy of my enemy" kind of situation because they hate mainstream/liberal Democrats so much, they prefer him.

Some of them are secretly (or not so secretly) kind of racist.

And some of them are right-wing trolls who aren't really even socialists at all.

[Ljube]

Very hostile town hall so far.

I only cry when I listen to sad broken record stories.

How much is the campaign paying you to shill for Trump like this? You're embarrassing.

Solid seems like the latter as he sounds like a Trump hack in every post

[Buzz]

it’s not a town hall.  It’s moderator attack president, don’t let any questions be asked.

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Do we have a thread for Biden’s? That’s what I’m watching.

Yeah, here:
https://talkelections.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=404326.0

So far, Biden's doing pretty good. A little rambling, but also coming across with a good mix of sincere and knowing what he's talking about.

[Gass3268]

Savannah Guthrie is getting rave reviews on Twitter. Though, but fair seems to be the consensus.

[GeorgiaModerate]

I'm not watching either townhall (I'm watching the Braves playoff game instead) but the impression I'm getting on Twitter is that Trump is more unhinged than usual tonight.  Is that a fair assessment?
