Even if exciting, unimportant. The election will be decided by mail in ballot harvest numbers. Harris has the better operation for doing this, so it is very likely that even if she eats a live rat onstage tonight, she will be the nexp puppet president. Thanks, Obama!
At least Hillary Clinton will never be President of the United states.
To Vice President Harris: How does it feel to be the representative of all that is good ? Aren't you well-named the candidate of JOY? To Mr. Trump: You are convicted of numerous crimes and your deluded followers have committed more? Why are you, a white man, running? Please apologize before we go any further.
Who ... by the way ... is doing the counting this time? What are their names? What political party are they members of? Who are they donating to? Are they going to board up the counting room windows again? Are we going to let them do that without firing a shot?
Probably. But more likely that than a duck pin. The portion of the electorate that have ducks and geese around their front porches has declined significantly since 1876.
In Clark County Ohio it has been said that Haitians are killing and eating people's pets as well as the ducks in the public ponds and I record that the police deny this is so. Clark County went for Trump by 15,000 votes. The Federal government has sent in 20,000 Haitians to Springfield, Clark County, Ohio. All these Haitians have driver's licenses and Social Security and permission to work cards which are given at once to everyone in the PAROLE program. (Haitians are coming in under the PAROLE program.) With these forms of ID they can register to vote. The Board of Election for Clark County in located in Springfield so they can pick up and drop off their registration forms right there.If these Haitians who are mostly adults registered,and had ballots harvested in 2024 they would swing Clark County to the Democrats. Ten counties like that would swing Ohio. But People who register must state that they are US citizens and eligible to vote on the form. Lying about citizenship on the form is a felony. So this cannot happen. Right?
Harris is better prepared than Biden was. She's doing her best to create her counterfactual alternate reality. She's shaking her head when he says things that are true. She keeps bringing up "tax cuts for the rich" and I don't hear Trump refuting that. That's it so far, I'm going to turn something else on.
There are people in jail in DC who presented evidence that children who had been born alive in the course of a late term abortion were being killed at the Washington Surgi Cinic in DC. These prolifers had a video of the surgeon explaining how it was done and they had bodies they found in a medical dumpster. They went to the Clinic to draw attention to these facts, were arrested and are imprisoned. Nothing happened to the surgeon. That's the way Kamala likes it.
Tedious. Hard to imagine anyone not obsessed by politics (i.e., each base whose votes are not in play) sticking around. Kamala not gonna melt down like Joe did, and Trump's not being bated into any outrageous mudslinging. These aren't Romney or Obama, so it's not sedate, but hard to see any knock out. Kamala returns to the basement, and that's all we get till election eve.
"Biden-Harris Administration Approves Ninth Offshore Wind Project Interior Department has now approved more than 13 gigawatts of offshore wind energy — enough to power nearly 5 million homes." Any other stupid comments, Mark?
Yes I agree. He had to point out the drawbacks of that horrible bill, the biggest is that the border does not close unless the level of illegals reaches 5,000. So, that would codify the illegal immigration allowed by the Biden Harris administration the past 3 years.
"That's not who we are," says the woman who was the last person in the room with Biden before the bugout from Afghanistan. Then again, Afghanistan wasn't a Democrat money-laundering operation like Ukraine was.
Yeah, I always think that Trump is doing a terrible job. He ought to be saying, over and over, 'But Kamala - you're the one in office right now, it's your administration that is failing to do these things.....'
I wonder how many people are watching who aren't political junkies. I mean, if you heard all these arguments for the first time what would you think? People hearing this for the first time are the only ones who might change.
Trump has never been a good debater. That this was a set up for Kamala - they left her mic on - ABC aided Kamala, smeared Trump ... with the same tired lies that even Snopes agreed are lies. so much ugh.
A curious lack of fact-checking by the Moderators, immediately after comments are made by Kamala, that are outrageously wrong or long-debunked (with evidence).
Yeah, Trump is doing a good job of losing this debate - despite the fact that on the issues and policies and record, he wins. Part of it is certainly that ABC gives Harris tons of time and Trump soundbyte time. But part of it is that Trump is letting himself be baited and (as usual) goes to his talking points instead of easy responses he could have made.
It's so frustrating. I just listened to a J.D. Vance panel interview on the All In podcast - if only Vance could do the talking. I'm happy to have Trump do the deciding - he does that pretty damn well.
C. Salgado "Well, Trump flubbed up a couple of times but actually he did well overall so far. He had some really good comebacks and hammered most of the major issues. And frankly, I don’t think him raising his voice is materially damaging to his performance overall. But Kamala’s smirking was damaging to hers."
Agree. And Kamala is intensely unlikable. Muir is a hack.
Poor old Russian German Soviet Inga. Dutifully holds onto every lie ever told by her democrat leftists. Tell us about Charlottesville, Inga... and all the other lies you wrap yourself in.
Its amazing how our Althouse blog NPC New Soviet Democraticals really believe the dems can jedi mind trick the entire nation that what has happened to peoples lives and continues to happen can be wished away.
Ironic that as fond of Hanibal Lecter that Cheeto Mussolini is, HE got HIS liver eaten tonight. Anyone that could still stomaching voting for that angry, dementia ridden shitbag should get right with Jesus.
Tonight was the latest reminder there is only Trump the base politician, wallowing in the grievances and fevers of the right. There's an audience for that -- but enough of one?
I haven't witnesses such biased moderators since CNBC's disastrous Republican debate in 2015 with John FUCKING Harwood. That became the story the next day much like this will tomorrow. Trump was fine, seemed to have pulled his punches even after being ganged up on. Kamala looked like a more focused ditz. I guess she did well enough to go back into hiding until November.
Inga eat a Canada goose. A Haitian in Springfield will catch and roast it for you.
Didn't see much that wasn't dull. Kamala did not kackle, but she's been well coached and knows how to simper. Trump got off one zinger "I'm talking" --a reprise of Kamala in the 2020 primary debates. Otherwise not a whole lot of heat.
Harris did better than I expected. Trump was Trump. (No surprises there.) I don't think that people are going to buy Harris' claim that she didn't espouse far-left positions in the past. There's just too much on the internet to contradict her. Plus, she really wants to have it both ways on Israel. I'm constantly pissed off that Trump won't say that he should acted quicker to stop the violence on Jan 6th and he should just admit that he lost the 2020 election.
As for lies, Trump had a few ones out there but so did Harris. (She brought up those debunked stories about Trump saying "very fine people," "bloodbath" and repeated the false claim that Project 2025 is Trump's plan.) Tomorrow most of the media and Democratic operatives will be crowing that Trump lied all through the debate, which is disingenuous. Both sides lied equally.
Also, the moderator tried to trap Trump witch a "gotcha" question by asking him if he thinks that Ukraine should win the war. That's a dumb question because both sides have already lost. The only question is how much more will Ukraine and Russia will lose. Putin has a lot of lost of losses in the war, so he's not going to just give up and walk away. He needs something to offset that. BTW, did you know that Ukraine has some of the largest lithium deposits in the world in the Eastern side of their country? Putin knew that when he invaded.
Harris lied and obfuscated without resistance. She was trying to create an Obama like style that will shore up support in Democrat ranks. While her positions on many things have changed, her values will change them back, rather quickly.
There were some low hanging fruits for Trump if he’d seen them. Not his best night. I do think Harris filibustered most of her responses, though. We don’t know any more about her plans or her evolutions than we did before the debate. Voters who needed to know more didn’t get to know more about her. She just wants to run as not Trump.
Trump could also say that 2020 was complicated by Covid-19 and showed strange and unlikely results (check out the list of bell-weather districts that Trump carried in 2020--virtually all of them), and his efforts were intended to provoke a thorough review of the reported results. But that is not how he rolls.
THE FIX IS IN: ABC Debate Moderator David Muir Hosts Most Pro-Harris, Left-Wing Newscast. “MRC analysts reviewed all 100 campaign stories that aired on ABC’s World News Tonight from the day Harris entered the race (July 21) through September 6, including weekends. Our analysts found 25 clearly positive statements about Harris from reporters, anchors, voters or other non-partisan sources, with zero negative statements — none. That computes to a gravity-defying 100% positive spin score for the Vice President.”
Example low hanging fruit: Harris so upset that Trump invited Taliban to Camp David to negotiate the end of the conflict there. She was insulted cuz Camp David is special…. Trump could’ve responded that she invited thousands of bad people through the southern border, that the whole USA is special.
Trump exposed Pelosi and DC mayor turning down 10,000 National Guard Jan 6. Most Dems had been unaware. X is full of dems expressing surprise at revelation
In the last debate Trump knocked his opponent out of the race. In a sense I think he once again showed up his opponent's glaring weakness. Kamala's facial gesturing made her seem totally unserious to me whereas Trump seemed to me to be concerned about the direction of the country. But there it is: to me. I just can't tell what less politically engaged people are seeing when they look at a debate.
Inga exclaims “The Haitians are eating the puppies and kitties cries Trump!” Inga, we want our ordinary lives back. We want to be able to go to the grocery store and not pay a fortune for food. We want to fill up our tanks without worrying. And yes we want our pets safe from illegal immigrants who have crossed over our open borders. So go ahead and laugh. Trump2024
Vance's single cat lady comments just got picked up by Trump's cat-eating comment. Are they intentionally trying to be a meme? So much hilarious, especially the spin room appearance lol
Great MAGA Team effort -- you morons got Trump to repeat your lies about the pets in Ohio. Congratulations on setting up the news stories for tomorrow by lying so Trump picks it up and sounds foolish.
Based on that debate, I have developed a new algorithm to help me choose who to vote for. The likelihood of my vote going to a party's candidate is inversely proportional to the percentage of spam in my spam folder originating from that party compared to the other party when I sit down to fill out the ballot.
The current score right now: Total spam count: 349 Legitimate spam from commercial companies: 19 Phishing spam: 0 Democrat Party spam: 330 Republican Party spam: 0
"“People don’t leave my rallies, we have the biggest rallies…” “IN SPRINGFIELD THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS THEY’RE EATING THE CATS” This guy is mentally ill. You all know that, right? Like, clinically? Not right in the head?"
To keep things interesting, the 30 day gmail spam time limit is enforced, however I got 17 new Democrat Party spam messages yesterday alone so I don't anticipate my vote going in that direction. You never know, though. This is a crazy year!
Drew Hernandez @DrewHLive Listen I’ve been to Haiti on mission trips
I’ve been to some of the hardest villages and communities in the nation where thousands of people share a tiny well of water for a month
I’ll never forget my first night when the clock struck midnight out of nowhere you hear an uprising of thousands of people, the entire city all around you chanting and screaming led by about 4-5 witch doctors throughout the city
From about 12pm - 4am they sacrifice animals and they also eat them to survive
I could hear cats, dogs, pigs, you name it all screaming and being slaughtered throughout the night
So to hear reports of Haitians doing this kind of stuff in Ohio is absolutely no surprise to me
Election Betting Odds has Harris moving up 5% which is small. These are probabilities, not polling percentages, so 5% is small. Maybe you are thinking about polling percentages?. (Election Betting Odds is an average of various betting markets.)

1 – 200 of 242 Newer› Newest»I hope Trump has a good line when the inevitable "denounce Jan 6" question pops up.
I'm debating between watching the debate or 'Gangs of London'. One will be a bizarre and possibly violent event. The other is a regular tv show.
Regardless of what happens, the media will praise Harris and excoriate Trump. So, balanced no, sedate maybe and unimportant yes.
Even if exciting, unimportant. The election will be decided by mail in ballot harvest numbers. Harris has the better operation for doing this, so it is very likely that even if she eats a live rat onstage tonight, she will be the nexp puppet president. Thanks, Obama!
At least Hillary Clinton will never be President of the United states.
The pre game keeps trying to tell us this is her introduction to voters, as if she has a clean slate. I guess that might work…
To Vice President Harris:
How does it feel to be the representative of all that is good ? Aren't you well-named the candidate of JOY?
To Mr. Trump:
You are convicted of numerous crimes and your deluded followers have committed more? Why are you, a white man, running? Please apologize before we go any further.
I hope Trump is smart enough to just let Kamala go on and on and never interrupt her.
We're going to watch as much as we can stomach.
Everything but the counting is unimportant.
Who ... by the way ... is doing the counting this time? What are their names? What political party are they members of? Who are they donating to? Are they going to board up the counting room windows again? Are we going to let them do that without firing a shot?
Pretend she hasn't received the questions in advance. And, rumor has it mics will be unmuted if something newsworthy is said..
Would it be too much if Trump wore a little cat pin next to the American flag on his lapel?
They have the gotcha locked and loaded
Taking out Biden is the clearest "conspiracy without evidence" yet that Trump, once again, is not going to be allowed to win.
YouTube: Eric Weinstein predicts...
Highly unlikely!
Probably. But more likely that than a duck pin. The portion of the electorate that have ducks and geese around their front porches has declined significantly since 1876.
Ok, good for Harris for the handshake.
Kamala looks nervous.
Kamala, right out of the gate: "I was born a poor black child."
What is Ms. Harris talking about?
I will not watch the "debate" live because I prefer to relax at the end of the day.
This is not a debate. It is a mutual campaign ad. It is all about appearances. I hope Trump understands that.
I suspect that the news actors will be subtle in their attempts to derail Trump (cf. Chris Wallace).
Trump stone faced while she talked. She is making faces while the president speaks.
She keeps swallowing.
Trump face is winning.
In Re This Election: Facts I have assembled.
In Clark County Ohio it has been said that Haitians are killing and eating people's pets as well as the ducks in the public ponds and I record that the police deny this is so. Clark County went for Trump by 15,000 votes. The Federal government has sent in 20,000 Haitians to Springfield, Clark County, Ohio. All these Haitians have driver's licenses and Social Security and permission to work cards which are given at once to everyone in the PAROLE program.

The Board of Election for Clark County in located in Springfield so they can pick up and drop off their registration forms right there.If these Haitians who are mostly adults registered,and had ballots harvested in 2024 they would swing Clark County to the Democrats. Ten counties like that would swing Ohio. But People who register must state that they are US citizens and eligible to vote on the form. Lying about citizenship on the form is a felony. So this cannot happen. Right?
Trump looks great tonight
Harris is better prepared than Biden was. She's doing her best to create her counterfactual alternate reality. She's shaking her head when he says things that are true. She keeps bringing up "tax cuts for the rich" and I don't hear Trump refuting that. That's it so far, I'm going to turn something else on.
Trump is the great explainer
Making faces the way Kamala is doing is childish.
I’m watching the comments on ABC. Majority pro Trump.
Moderator inserted herself into the debate.
It started with a good moderator, and now it has a bad one.
ABC ‘news’ feels its important to correct Trump by saying no state allows the killing of a newborn baby even though Trump didn’t say there was…
The moderators seem to let Harris speak as she wishes and then turn to Trump and make him play defense.
Trump is a proven leader
Total resting bitch face on Trump. Everyone has seen angry drunk uncle, and Donny is him.
They unmuted the mics.
Tapping out…
And she slips into a "blackcent" while talking about immigration
Yeah. Nothing tonight is changing my vote. Time for 'Gangs of London'. Enjoy your night, all.
Well, I made it through 4 mins. Then Kamala started talking, so I bailed.
Trump has answers for our problems
Trump just referred to Springfield. Does he mean the one that the Simpsons lived in?
Hilarious fact check.
She got him by insulting his rallies. Needs to calm down. Moderator "fact checking" now.
Trump doesn't think any of this is funny
There are people in jail in DC who presented evidence that children who had been born alive in the course of a late term abortion were being killed at the Washington Surgi Cinic in DC. These prolifers had a video of the surgeon explaining how it was done and they had bodies they found in a medical dumpster. They went to the Clinic to draw attention to these facts, were arrested and are imprisoned. Nothing happened to the surgeon. That's the way Kamala likes it.
Both moderators have now inserted themselves into the debate.
How many of the 41 minutes total before he gets to the point? Eric Weinstein is an incredibly smart man, but boy is he long winded.
Trump is handling the ABCnews division as well
Fact checking one candidate but not the other is a bad look.
After she gave her first answer and Trump was invited to give his response, I instantly thought of Dan Aykroyd, “Jane, you ignorant slut!”

He's yelling
Trump is defeating ABCnews division as well as his opponent
Tedious. Hard to imagine anyone not obsessed by politics (i.e., each base whose votes are not in play) sticking around. Kamala not gonna melt down like Joe did, and Trump's not being bated into any outrageous mudslinging. These aren't Romney or Obama, so it's not sedate, but hard to see any knock out. Kamala returns to the basement, and that's all we get till election eve.
Trump calling out his opponents use of lawfare
WE all knew ABC would be a Kamala crutch
Trump took the critique of rally bait and left her Rino supported migrant bill/bull unaddressed.
Waiting for Kamala to say, “Drill baby, drill!”
I’m talking now, lol
Trump giving autobiographical info, and it really humanizes him
Under Kamala we are going back to windmills.
Ok boomer.
You got a pretty crappy family.
Trump needs to stop talking. Let Kamala talk. The winner of this debate is the one who lets the other define themself.
Oh, for heavens sake, now Kamala is spewing the Charlottesville hoax.
"Biden-Harris Administration Approves Ninth Offshore Wind Project
Interior Department has now approved more than 13 gigawatts of offshore wind energy — enough to power nearly 5 million homes."
Any other stupid comments, Mark?
Not much content, but the optics are interesting. The “candidate of color” looks whiter than Trump.
Fine people hoax revisited. Bloodbath hoax revisited. Kamala avoids pipe bomb curiously underfoot at any cost. Trump also.
I have to say, the prospect of listening to any more of Kamala Harris' version of Valley Girl ("vocal fry") is more than I can endure.
All the left have are lies.
ABC is trying so hard to help Kamala.
David Muir making Candy Crowley look like a piker
Noticed that
As is Trump
I think Trump is doing a great job. We're talking about being President and he's quite serious about it all while she's a nasty smirk.
Adding capacity is easily understood.
We are arguing about 2020. Trump is not gaining any voters tonight.
3 against 1
I'll give the moderators this, they are asking some serious questions.
Trump has command of geopolitics
It would have never happened is such an unrealistic claim.
Trump is serious, his opponent not so much
The world's bad guys were much better-behaved when Trump was in office. Just sayin'.
ABC has announced that David Muir has defeated Donald Trump in tonight's Presidential Debate.
At least they haven't shot him yet.
Meanwhil\e, the country is presided over by Joementia/Pedo Pete, sleeping soundly.
Gonna be fun to piss on her grave one day.
Its so unfair.
He’s done. She trampled him.
Expect Trump to start rolling the steel balls and start talking about strawberries any minute now.
He lost his shit so easily.
David Muir was (and remains) the only neutral news anchor.
Hope and Change guy ensconced propaganda.
Yep, he finished, time fer her to spit or swallow
Yes I agree. He had to point out the drawbacks of that horrible bill, the biggest is that the border does not close unless the level of illegals reaches 5,000.
So, that would codify the illegal immigration allowed by the Biden Harris administration the past 3 years.
She is attacking his vanity and he can't help himself from launching an attack. Even when there is a far better response to the actual question.
I am reminded of Charlie Sheen #winning
I am surprised at the absence of the usual talking point commenters. Drago is silent with his masters 'orders' in his mouth.
Doesn't pay to post without those talking points.
"That's not who we are," says the woman who was the last person in the room with Biden before the bugout from Afghanistan. Then again, Afghanistan wasn't a Democrat money-laundering operation like Ukraine was.
He hasn't been doing prep, and it shows.
Millions of people dead, trump says stop, Harris says keep it up
Yeah, I always think that Trump is doing a terrible job. He ought to be saying, over and over, 'But Kamala - you're the one in office right now, it's your administration that is failing to do these things.....'
Trump is not convincing the moderators! with anything he says - they are well disposed to Kamala
Old habits.....
I wonder how many people are watching who aren't political junkies. I mean, if you heard all these arguments for the first time what would you think? People hearing this for the first time are the only ones who might change.
So how come the moderators can intervene five times fact-checking Trump but not say a word about "both sides?"
She definitely knew the questions in advance
Ukraine discussion without mention of Joementia advisor Humper.
It's as simple as ABC.
This Abdul anecdote is classic. SNL opening guaranteed.
My Gen Z is laughing at her text thread harder than I have heard in a while.
They have not been unexpected. This only speaks onto a good debate prep as nothing is a question I have not heard in the last 6 months.
Trump has never been a good debater.
That this was a set up for Kamala - they left her mic on - ABC aided Kamala, smeared Trump ... with the same tired lies that even Snopes agreed are lies.
so much ugh.
Where's Kamala's fave focus on "equity"?
Smilin' Jack said...
"Not much content, but the optics are interesting. The 'candidate of color' looks whiter than Trump."
I have wondered if part of the reason Harris chose Walz is that she looks darker by comparison to the incredibly pale Tim.
CNN Host Amazed: Kamala Harris "Actually Said" She Advocated "Taxpayer-Funded Gender-Transition Surgeries For Detained Migrants" In 2019
Those mixer faders are tricky..."Oh look..I can still hrear her".
When Trump was scoring a point - Muir stepped in to stop him mid sentence. F the corrupt media.
A curious lack of fact-checking by the Moderators, immediately after comments are made by Kamala, that are outrageously wrong or long-debunked (with evidence).
Yeah, Trump is doing a good job of losing this debate - despite the fact that on the issues and policies and record, he wins.

They kept giving Trump all the rope he needed.
He just kept wrapping knots.
Show me tbe unexpected question.
Trump is literally having his own Biden debate. Disaster. He’s giving tonight to Harris.
Biden gave one of the worst debate performances in history.
Trump: Hold my beer.
LOL
Sure tiger.
C. Salgado
"Well, Trump flubbed up a couple of times but actually he did well overall so far. He had some really good comebacks and hammered most of the major issues.

Agree. And Kamala is intensely unlikable. Muir is a hack.
It’s weird that people think others don’t listen to what is actually being said. It isn’t the playground.
Hardly. Biden was out to lunch in dementia Joe land.
Trump sure misses Biden.
Biden/Kamala Covid Defund the police and open borders have destroyed our nation in a very short time.
So much joy!
I knew it wouldn’t take much to unleash Trump’s Kraken.
Harris has run circles around him.
She's a change agent..from her "my boss". ABC quoting only Harris and Rinos.
Poor old Russian German Soviet Inga. Dutifully holds onto every lie ever told by her democrat leftists. Tell us about Charlottesville, Inga... and all the other lies you wrap yourself in.
Its amazing how our Althouse blog NPC New Soviet Democraticals really believe the dems can jedi mind trick the entire nation that what has happened to peoples lives and continues to happen can be wished away.
And it is amusing to watch them ry.
Not really. Harris had the ABC crutch and she looks and sounds horrible.
He's president..that you voted for. How does the debate poll in your migrant hostel?
Heaven help us all.
Trump crushed her on substance. She looked like an unserious lightweight.
Gonna be fun to piss on her grave one day.
When I got out of the service I swore I'd never stand in line again.
He lost bigly.
Kamala is unlikable. That matters. Inga loves her. But lying liars who lie - like other lying liars who lie.
Ironic that as fond of Hanibal Lecter that Cheeto Mussolini is, HE got HIS liver eaten tonight. Anyone that could still stomaching voting for that angry, dementia ridden shitbag should get right with Jesus.
Tonight was the latest reminder there is only Trump the base politician, wallowing in the grievances and fevers of the right. There's an audience for that -- but enough of one?
“He lost bigly .” That’s so 2016.
The Haitians are eating the puppies and kitties cries Trump! This guy wants to be president? What a laughing stock to the entire world.
It seems that each candidate's supporters believes that their candidate won.
I haven't witnesses such biased moderators since CNBC's disastrous Republican debate in 2015 with John FUCKING Harwood. That became the story the next day much like this will tomorrow. Trump was fine, seemed to have pulled his punches even after being ganged up on. Kamala looked like a more focused ditz. I guess she did well enough to go back into hiding until November.
Inga eat a Canada goose. A Haitian in Springfield will catch and roast it for you.
Didn't see much that wasn't dull. Kamala did not kackle, but she's been well coached and knows how to simper. Trump got off one zinger "I'm talking" --a reprise of Kamala in the 2020 primary debates. Otherwise not a whole lot of heat.
Did Trump claim a dingo ate a baby?
Sounded like it
Yep, you go tell Gen Z about that
Harris did better than I expected. Trump was Trump. (No surprises there.) I don't think that people are going to buy Harris' claim that she didn't espouse far-left positions in the past. There's just too much on the internet to contradict her. Plus, she really wants to have it both ways on Israel.

Also, the moderator tried to trap Trump witch a "gotcha" question by asking him if he thinks that Ukraine should win the war. That's a dumb question because both sides have already lost. The only question is how much more will Ukraine and Russia will lose. Putin has a lot of lost of losses in the war, so he's not going to just give up and walk away. He needs something to offset that. BTW, did you know that Ukraine has some of the largest lithium deposits in the world in the Eastern side of their country? Putin knew that when he invaded.
Harris lied and obfuscated without resistance. She was trying to create an Obama like style that will shore up support in Democrat ranks. While her positions on many things have changed, her values will change them back, rather quickly.
He should have described rape trees and child trafficking.
Trump landed a lot of punches. A lot. And I disagree that Harris won this thing.
Heard Harris campaign has called for another debate. Assume Trump precondition would be Fox News moderates.
Guess you didn't watch Baier and the folks on Fox.
There were some low hanging fruits for Trump if he’d seen them. Not his best night. I do think Harris filibustered most of her responses, though. We don’t know any more about her plans or her evolutions than we did before the debate. Voters who needed to know more didn’t get to know more about her. She just wants to run as not Trump.
Moderators should have had a mute button for Trump. By the end Harris figured out rules don't matter.
Agreed. They should haver called Harris out for the debunked "very fine people" and "bloodbath" lies.
Trump could also say that 2020 was complicated by Covid-19 and showed strange and unlikely results (check out the list of bell-weather districts that Trump carried in 2020--virtually all of them), and his efforts were intended to provoke a thorough review of the reported results. But that is not how he rolls.
I doubt he’ll debate her again, anywhere.
"(She brought up those debunked stories about Trump saying "very fine people," "
And Trump's only defense was "Well that was debunked by Sean Hannity and Laura Ingram" .

That computes to a gravity-defying 100% positive spin score for the Vice President.”
Example low hanging fruit: Harris so upset that Trump invited Taliban to Camp David to negotiate the end of the conflict there. She was insulted cuz Camp David is special…. Trump could’ve responded that she invited thousands of bad people through the southern border, that the whole USA is special.
This. Her base is giddy... but did she gather anyone else int her fold of fakery and lies?
Trump won, hands down. Harris is a lightweight, def not presidential material, not enough gravitas for the job.
The corrupt democrat elite left do not care about anyone - just their power. never forget that.
Low IQ buffoon!
Does it not strike you that people who kill and eat kitties, protected birds and the like should not be wlcome in the US?
Will you take more notice when the illegals continue to kill our citizens----humans---by the thousands?
(and I wonder: where is Mr. Inga: is he "resting' under four feet of concrete" in your basement?)
Well, Obama did eat a dog. So the far left can't be too upset about this.
Trump exposed Pelosi and DC mayor turning down 10,000 National Guard Jan 6. Most Dems had been unaware. X is full of dems expressing surprise at revelation
Uh oh Taylor Swift just endorsed Harris/Walz. Swifties number in the hundreds of thousands, millions actually.
Corrupt lying Marxists like Kamala will only agree to debate with friendly media hacks.
LIE
That was an unforced error by Trump, since it was debunked by Snopes.
A small change in Harris's favor in the betting markets. It's still a tossup. That's hard for me to believe, but its true.
In the last debate Trump knocked his opponent out of the race. In a sense I think he once again showed up his opponent's glaring weakness. Kamala's facial gesturing made her seem totally unserious to me whereas Trump seemed to me to be concerned about the direction of the country. But there it is: to me. I just can't tell what less politically engaged people are seeing when they look at a debate.
Inga exclaims “The Haitians are eating the puppies and kitties cries Trump!”
Inga, we want our ordinary lives back. We want to be able to go to the grocery store and not pay a fortune for food. We want to fill up our tanks without worrying. And yes we want our pets safe from illegal immigrants who have crossed over our open borders. So go ahead and laugh.

The exploding betting Markets beg to differ.

Vance's single cat lady comments just got picked up by Trump's cat-eating comment. Are they intentionally trying to be a meme?
So much hilarious, especially the spin room appearance lol
If you think any of this matters, I don't know what to tell you.
But he didn't.
The Springfield with no puppies or kitties nymore.
"Small" ? Harris has gained 9 points on Pedictit in the hour since the debate.
😽
"And yes we want our pets safe from illegal immigrants who have crossed over our open borders."
Nuff said.
Following debate prominent childless cat lady endorses Harris.
Great MAGA Team effort -- you morons got Trump to repeat your lies about the pets in Ohio. Congratulations on setting up the news stories for tomorrow by lying so Trump picks it up and sounds foolish.
I'll just leave this here...

“World leaders are laughing at Donald Trump”, as she looked right into his face, oooo, that must’ve hurt.
Based on that debate, I have developed a new algorithm to help me choose who to vote for. The likelihood of my vote going to a party's candidate is inversely proportional to the percentage of spam in my spam folder originating from that party compared to the other party when I sit down to fill out the ballot.
The current score right now:
Total spam count: 349
Legitimate spam from commercial companies: 19
Phishing spam: 0
Democrat Party spam: 330
Republican Party spam: 0
Vote likelihood:
Commercial Company: 31.5%
Phising Dude: 33.3%
Democrat Party: 1.8%
Republican Party: 33.3%
Washington state just might see a vote for the crown prince of Nigeria if he can stay out of my spam folder...
"“People don’t leave my rallies, we have the biggest rallies…” “IN SPRINGFIELD THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS THEY’RE EATING THE CATS” This guy is mentally ill. You all know that, right? Like, clinically? Not right in the head?"
Nothing changes. If Kamala doesn't lose - we are all right and truly f*cked.
Re-watch RFK jr.
To keep things interesting, the 30 day gmail spam time limit is enforced, however I got 17 new Democrat Party spam messages yesterday alone so I don't anticipate my vote going in that direction. You never know, though. This is a crazy year!
Is it a lie?
Something Momala can't claim.
“"Small" ? Harris has gained 9 points on Pedictit in the hour since the debate.”
Think about just that and decide if it has any real-world significance. Compared to, well, almost anything….
it was two mockeries of a sham

Listen I’ve been to Haiti on mission trips
I’ve been to some of the hardest villages and communities in the nation where thousands of people share a tiny well of water for a month
I’ll never forget my first night when the clock struck midnight out of nowhere you hear an uprising of thousands of people, the entire city all around you chanting and screaming led by about 4-5 witch doctors throughout the city
From about 12pm - 4am they sacrifice animals and they also eat them to survive
I could hear cats, dogs, pigs, you name it all screaming and being slaughtered throughout the night
So to hear reports of Haitians doing this kind of stuff in Ohio is absolutely no surprise to me
Election Betting Odds has Harris moving up 5% which is small. These are probabilities, not polling percentages, so 5% is small. Maybe you are thinking about polling percentages?. (Election Betting Odds is an average of various betting markets.)

Btw,
In Cuba the Santeria religious sect also killed cats in their religious rituals. Don't ask me how I know.
"Part of it is certainly that ABC gives Harris tons of time and Trump soundbyte time. "
Trump spoke for 31 minutes, Harris for 23.
