This is going to be stupid, isn't it?

That's probably one of the sounder predictions on this forum. Smiley

I don’t think I’m prepared for another sh*t show.

Trump: We're learning to live with this virus.

Biden: People are learning to die with it.

Biden: he shouldn't have been in the sand trap on his golf course, he should have been negotiating with Democrats and Republicans in Congress.

That one will leave a mark.

Trump's tone is vastly improved from the first debate (although that's admittedly a low bar), but he's nil on substance.

And as soon as I wrote that, Trump's self-control is fraying.

They are only muted during the other candidate's initial 2-minute response to a question.

The Eagles are up 10-7 at halftime if anyone wanted an update

Sounds more exciting than this debate, TBH.

I'm a bit behind but Biden has the patience of a saint to not tell him, "You wanna talk about my kids? Let's talk about yours."

I agree.  I'm watching with my son and I just said to him that I'd love to see Biden turn to Trump and say "you're a damn liar."

Or a Falcons' game.  

(I'm sorry, that was mean Tongue)

Hey, lots of our games are exciting (for the other team's fans).

Biden: 525 kids don't know where their parents are.

Trump: Good.

Say good night, Trump.  It's over.

Did he just say "good" in response to Biden or was that a hallucination?

He said it.  That will be in a thousand soundbites tomorrow.

100%? Some people are saying it might of been “go ahead”.

It sure sounded like good.  I may have misheard it.

Wait, Biden just called Trump "Abraham Lincoln"??

Mocking Trump for his comment about having done more for blacks than anyone since Lincoln.

Joe just planted the windmill seed, and sure enough Trump took the bait.

Welker is letting Trump have the last word on almost every question.

Overall, I don't see this changing many voters' minds.

That's because Trump talked over his time much more often than Biden.
