    I don't know whether watching the second debate would be worth it. Trump will shoot off his mouth again and say things that might hurt us in one way or another. Trump is not worth voting for in November.

    It doesn’t matter because trump will turn any debate into a circus.
    He doesn’t have anything else to offer but insults and self serving lies.

    Which is EXACTLY why the process and format need to change. My father always says "Locks don't keep criminals out. They just keep honest people honest.".

    Unfortunately, more and more people then also come to the conclusion to just not vote for this circus. Low turnout helps Trump....

    ...says the man from a country with out of control violence on the streets and a Presidential debate that looked like a schoolyard spat.

    There is no violence on my street. I just wish we had the entertaining spectacle displayed in England's Parliament....

    Presidential debate: How the world's media reacted

    I don't care what the world's media thinks. I do care that our political environment has made it impossible to attract the best people to high government office.

    I don't. That's why I included one of my father's statements. Again, "Locks don't keep criminals out. They just keep honest people honest." which means that Trump will break the rules regardless of the rules and format is in place.

    Are you looking down your nose at Somalia? That isn't very politically correct.

    That's the whole problem.

    The Republican electorate has relegated decency to the background.

    No, I'm making a comparison between a lawless nation run by gangsters and thugs and Somalia.

    And THAT is the truth of the debate. Chris Wallace -- a registered Democrat who just happens to earn his wages from increasingly leftist-minded Fox News -- was Trump's real opponent since Wallace -- as per the media tradition established in the 2016 election -- was only there to spin, block, and cover for the Left's truly terrible presidential candidate. The entire world knows it but since most media outlets around the world are controlled by Politically Correct organizations -- in one way or another -- none of them dare admit the truth, that from the beginning it really and truly was Trump against the Left's moderator and DNC selected candidate. Trump still beat both of their rumps.
