    Your problem is that the debate proved that was pure crap. Not surprised you didn't notice.

    And Putin? Really? I guess that's one way of telling us where your allegiances lie.

    Ism sorry but have you honestly seen a transcript of Trump talking? Even during the debates Trump was jumping from subject to subject in the one sentence

    Meanwhile Trump word salads slurs his words mispronounces words like Thailand and Yosemite

    Don't forget how he has his own Grammer and even made up words like bigly. The problem here is that most people see it as a part of his personality and not a sign of age related diseases.

    Not until Joe and Wallace did. Wallace is getting HUGE criticism from both sides,

    Such as

    [Andrew] McCarthy added: “Biden doesn’t support the Green New Deal. Oh, Wallace got that out of him? No, Trump did. Oh, well, did Wallace clarify what’s parts of Green New Deal Biden is against? No, needed to move on …”

    McCarthy added: “Chris Wallace jumps in a second time when Biden having trouble with Trump’s questioning.”

    Bill O’Reilly, who used to be a colleague of Wallace’s, wrote on Twitter: “Good line from Trump—he tells Chris Wallace he’s debating him, not Joe.”

    Attorney Harmeet Dhillon wrote on Twitter: “Chris Wallace is a disgrace. Republicans need to stop allowing the slanted media to have any role in debates in future years.”

    Journalist Yashar Ali, who was Hillary Clinton’s co-chair on her 2008 presidential campaign, wrote on Twitter that there was “no doubt” that “Wallace is not doing a good job as a debate moderator.”

    Newsweek editor Josh Hammer wrote on Twitter: “Just an inexcusable effort tonight from Chris Wallace. And I say that as someone who is generally a fan of his.”

    Federal co-founder Sean Davis wrote on Twitter: “Chris Wallace is now reading Biden’s energy plan back to him to remind Biden what’s in his plan. I have never, never seen anything like this from a moderator.”

    and on and on and on

    Precisely. Wallace is obviously in the tank for -- not just Biden but for -- the DNC, and despite working for Fox News is -- or so we hear -- a registered Democrat. Fox actually has got many liberals whom really and truly ARE liberals working for it whereas if you do not pass the liberal litmus test you do not get hired by leftist loyal media outlets.

    IF one were looking for a civilized and polite debate where both candidates were focused solely and substantively on the issues, then yes, the American people definitely lost.

    IF one were going into it knowing that it would be a complete **** show and just looking for entertainment value and zingers (such as myself), then it was rather enjoyable.

    Since Biden did not totally fizzle............... Trump won.... but only marginally. Biden did far, far, far, far, far , far better than I had expected him to do!


    I personally had expected a total Biden collapse!?

    Russia.
    America lost after that one.

    trump? He did nothing but attack Biden and talk over Biden for 90 minutes.
    Never laid out a single plan for the next 4 yrs.

    So predictable..... just like in sports when a team gets blown out their fans start crying about the refs instead of their team stinking

    He was also abusive to Hillary when they debated, downright creepy.

    The difference being that she didn't respond to his abuse, which was a mistake.

    Biden won by default because the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief FAILED to provide any cogent reasons for either undecided voters to support him or for Biden supporters to abandon him.

    Worth noting that the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief was DEMANDING that Biden take a drug test BEFORE the debate.

    Given the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief 's ADDLED ranting performance he came across as being the one who was DRUGGED up to his piggy eyeballs.

    I am confused by this because many have said it was a mistake for her not to respond to his abuse. However, people are saying that Joe looked weak for sinking to Trump's level. It sounds like "damned if you, damned if you don't".

    People continuing to support a lying bullying ass who disregards the rules boggles my mind. Are their ethics equal to his and they don't see a problem?

    Yes, I'm willing to pay higher tax, get in more wars, let China gain global dominance, and let the government give all our money to other countries even though we cannot pay our own bills, let the country move closer to open borders, and destroy our economy due to global warming alarmism, etc, because the way Trump acted in a debate wasn't nice!

    Of course I forget that Trump is intregal to making\keeping the murder of uborn children illegal. Murder vs the immorality of following debate rules ummm....

    Lastly, in today's climate, and with everything the democrats and media have been doing to Trump and the right, what makes you think that they deserve any respect? Sure Trump was disrespectful. Want to be respected? You'll have to earn it back!
