Trump throwing up the judicial openings, that was all McConnell.

Yep. And Biden didn’t call it out. Missed opportunities.

She left after the first segment.

Mine too

Lol. He is fighting with Wallace.

 

[MT15]

Overall, though, Joe looks entirely more presidential. He is coming across as a decent human being.

 

[MT15]

Raking the forests again.

It’s getting better.

 

[EmBeeFiveOhFour]

Not being able to say that white supremacist militias provoking violence at protests are bad seems...not great?

 

[brandon]

Trump believes in man-made climate change and forest management. Got it.

 

[MT15]

He’s taking more than 2 minutes, and my sense is that it’s happening a lot.

I'm wishing I had

He is, and he's doing well enough to not lose any support. He's basically chasing a chicken on meth, and I feel for him, but he should have been prepared for this same bag of tricks.

Chris Wallace is now holding Trump’s feet to the fire more than Biden.

 

[superchuck500]

Trump going off about the forest fires again. I wish someone would just tell him.

 

[UncleTrvlingJim]

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.

There are substantive points he could have made - Wallace even gave him a gimme that he didn't hammer home - about more jobs being created in the last three years of Obama's presidency than the first 3 years of Trump's presidency. Moments like that to hit Trump with real facts.

 

[MT15]

Yep. And Biden didn’t call it out. Missed opportunities.

True, but who would have guessed he would say that? Trump will get killed for that in the aftermath.

 

[brandon]

I like this part. Tell us what you’re going to do.

That more than half the forests are on federal lands and he's the Chief Executive?

See? Not that hard to be prepared for him repeating the same things.
