No, that wouldn’t look right.


They should cut off Trump’s mic, that’d be amazing.


ETA NewOrleans Fan , great minds

I said I wouldn't agree to debate without the moderator having the switch to shut his mic down

 

[Mr. Blue Sky]

Like i said I’m behind on the dvr, but every time Trump talks about the ‘Best Economy in History‘ before Covid came along, i want Biden to say ‘Besides that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play??’

 

[efil4]

I can name 10 people on this board who would do a better job than Biden right now. So many missed chances to hit Trump. You can tell he just studied a number of topics and doesn't want to improvise.

Not focusing on Trump.. he's the same he's always been.

He's worse today because he's emboldened

 

[wardorican]

Trump didn't really say anything about race.

 

[brandon]

As frustrating as it is to say, Biden is getting annihilated here. Trump isn’t saying anything worth listening to, but he’s running all over Biden.

But so many people are saying he should focus on issues and not Trump. Now he's not focusing enough on Trump?

ETA I may have misunderstood what you were saying.

 

[brandon]

As soon as I said that, Biden had a decent moment there.

Biden can't both stay focused on the issues and communicate to the country, and get caught up in exchanging petty zingers with Trump.

Trump will always get his zingers in. If that seems like winning or curbstomping to people, then they will always see Trump as winning or curbstomping.

 

[Saint by the Bay]

Biden is doing much better on the race subjects. My blood pressure is down to 250 over 200.

 

[Mr. Blue Sky]

 

[MT15]

Biden can talk about race with sensitivity. There is a huge contrast with Trump here.

 

[brandon]

It’s crazy that the word “Chicago” is now a racist dog-whistle.

 

[wardorican]

"He cant say law and order."

Biden Literally said law and order 4 times...

 

[MT15]

Trump will lie so shamelessly. It’s pretty hard to compete with a sideshow barker.

 

[Ayo]

Why does Wallace keep having to tell Trump, as he’s ranting and interrupting, “you’re gonna be happy with the next topic”?

that sort of accommodation for his petulance is out of line for a moderator, imo

but I don’t envy his position here

 

[Nebaghead]

Biden is coming out strong on the law and order question just now.

 

[Ayo]

It’s crazy that the word “Chicago” is now a racist dog-whistle.

I think “suburb” is too

 

[MT15]

I don’t have any sympathy for Wallace here. He needed to establish control and he can’t do it.
