Harris - Trump Debate (4 Viewers)

[Optimus Prime]

I'm sure polls won't change no matter what happens but I am hoping that Kamala absolutely destroys Trump with a healthy helping of petty bait designed to make him lose his mind and goad him into saying something unfortunate

I've said this before but I hope there is some fact checking thins time and Trump isn't allowed to rant about after birth abortions, immigrants eating cats, and lunchtime sex change operations for 3rd graders

I never knew Cooter's had such good food until I went there once when the daiquiri shop ran out of bread for a roast beef po-boy. The tenders and fries were delicious.

Back in the late 80's they had a sandwich called The Radiator (I think named after Dave Malone)....Shrimp poboy with shredded, melted cheese, simple but delicious......

I went there with my sons in Nov 2019, the raw oysters were still really good but I got a shrimp poboy with way too large overdone shrimp, it was awful.....my sons poboys were equally bad.....

Simple, clever

This is exactly why nearly one-third of top executives in leading Scandinavian companies are women. They tend to avoid the 'I alone know' mentality often seen in more masculine leadership styles. Instead, they excel at fostering collaboration and bringing multiple parties together without causing unnecessary friction

Cooperation is much more productive and beneficial than competition. I guess one could say that cooperation trumps competition.

Just in case anyone missed this hilarious piece last night... (mild language warning)

Hes becoming a national treasure.

Very accurate and very funny.

‘I just want to know about the dogs’: comedian Roy Wood Jr weighs in on Trump’s pet-eating claim | CNN Politics

Former president Donald Trump repeated debunked claims about reports of Haitian immigrants eating pets. Comedian Roy Wood Jr. had some questions about that. Wood is the host of CNN’s “Have I Got News For You” premiering Saturday, September 14 at 9pm ET/PT on CNN.

Move over "jumped the shark" there's a new boss phrase in town for someone doing or saying something stupid and it's "eating the pets."

Also, Jon hits the nail on the head of why the debates don't have much impact on voting, because almost everyone sees them through their preconceived perceptions of the candidates.

……He wasn’t the only one who was clearly panicking. Stephen Miller, famous for his role as the architect of Trump’s first-term immigration policy, took things a step further and had to force himself to walk away from a conversation with a Hispanic reporter after raising his voice repeatedly and yelling angrily that Kamala Harris was responsible for a supposed epidemic of child rape (one that is wholly imaginary) which he then blamed on immigrants.

“Why are you yelling at me?” the reporter asked Miller, who near-screamed at the man and asked him if he had any “remorse” for imaginary children who were supposedly being murdered and raped.

Vivek Ramaswamy, one of Trump’s two former opponents-turned-allies who showed up to the debate, echoed some of Miller’s anger as he lambasted ABC’s David Muir for “setting [Harris] up with softball questions”.

Tim Murtaugh, a Trump campaign official recently added to the team after serving on Trump’s 2020 squad, took a bit of a calmer approach.

He said after ABC’s program ended that another debate on Fox News “should have already happened” and indicated that he thought the campaign would continue pushing for more.

But he, like other Republicans, also eviscerated the moderators for only jumping in to make corrections when Trump said something that was obviously false. Harris, he said, “took the bait” from moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis, and allowed them to “cover for her” during the program……..

I witnessed the strangest moments of my career in the Harris-Trump debate spin room

Trump himself coming to the spin room, JD Vance and Stephen Miller panicking, a member of the Central Park Five in attendance, and Scaramucci talking about Taylor Swift — the fallout from the debate was immediate and intense

……A pool reporter in the room transcribed the off-mic comments which only served to underscore the bitter exchanges between the two candidates.

During a segment on reproductive rights and the overturning of Roe v Wade, led by conservative Supreme Court justices that Trump appointed, the former president claimed to have been a “leader” on in vitro fertilization (IVF). Off-mic, Harris remarked: “You have not. Come on.”

She gave a similar response after Trump suggested that Democrats would allow abortions in the ninth month of pregnancy — and “executions” of babies after birth.

The vice president, off-mic, said: “C’mon…that’s not true.”

Trump’s comments was so wild that ABC moderator Lindsey Davis cut in to fact-check. “There is no state in this country where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born,” she said.

In arguably the most outlandish remark of the night, Trump suggested that migrants in Ohio were eating residents’ pets. “The people that came in, they’re eating the cats,” Trump said. “They’re eating — they’re eating the pets of the people that live there.”

The vice president immediately responded: “What? This is unbelievable.”

The former president had some of his own exasperated off-mic reactions when the vice president mentioned his ongoing civil and criminal court cases.

Trump gasped when Harris mentioned his New York City conviction. In May, he was convicted on 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection with a scheme to influence the 2016 presidential election by paying adult film star Stormy Daniels in exchange for her silence over an alleged affair………

The mics were muted during the debate. Here’s what Harris and Trump said

She struck first. He was not expecting that extended hand.

 

[MT15]

Look at this. He KNEW she dog-walked him. He knew it.

 

[MT15]

I'm biased against Trump, so keep that in mind. It looks to me like Trump went to his patented move of grip and jerk. He tried to jerk Kamala's hand toward him, but he didn't get far before she jerked him right back to center.

Good catch. It does look that way.

I wonder if Rupert Murdoch had any input on that.

One might call you a hypocrite, because up until very recently you were going to vote for Trump....please let me know the minute you can respond, because I know you have so many other things going on and it is so important to me that you know that I know this

hahahahahahahahaha

My window of being willing to vote for Trump (to save the country from having Biden in the Situation Room during a crisis) was very brief.
It began After the Biden debate disaster and yet as soon as Biden dropped out I immediately went back to my long standing pledge to abstain from Presidential voting.
"Until very recently" is totally not accurate.
