Fact checking only one candidate is not healthy for America

Maybe your guy shouldn't lie every time he speaks. Just a thought.

 

[Menace Sockeyes]

Initial fact checks showed Trump made 33 completely false statements, as compared to 1 by Harris. It was the moderators fault that Trump is an egregious serial liar? LMAO.

 

[StormHawk42]

He was saying post-birth abortion (murder) was legal and repeated made up sh!t about the Haitians. Debates are pointless if there’s not even a shared sense of reality.

 

[Thunderlips71]

Your boy spent the night lying about transgendered immigrant inmates kidnapping and eating people’s pets, and lost 77-0 in the process. You are blaming it on the referees.

What 5 areas did the mods “fact check” Trump? I didn’t watch but I heard they called him on Ohioans having their cats eaten by Haitians…I heard there were two other things they called him in..but as I said, I didn’t watch.

So… the mods missed 1 untruth by Harris, and 28 by Trump?

Agreed… poor job giving Trump a huge advantage.

they pushed back on him like 3 times, which were blatant lies. They could have pushed back WAY more.

Trump is not a victim here.

 

[Scruddy]

Yes, the moderators were clearly all in on Kamala but this was a known thing before the debate started. Trump should have performed better despite this. Her record is so bad and easy to call out that trump shouldn't need the moderators to call out Harris repeated lies, though it would have been nice to see.

Trump knew what to expect with ABC in control,... no surprises here.

They can't and won't. Sad.

After birth abortion is the only other one I remember them fact checking him on.

No shit. Dudes is absolute lunatic but can’t forget about BOTH SIDES and UNFAIR!

 

[bunsen82]

You can claim they fact checked him more times that Kamala, but by most standards he lied over 30 times, and she did in the low single digits. There were so many more opportunities to fact check him, especially when he claimed your pets are going to be abducted and killed by immigrants. Come on man.

Pretty proportionate to the number of lies spoken by each one, Northern.

No. He is. He is garbage even beyond running for president. Can't wait for him to shit all over 9/11 as he usually does.

 

[funksouljon]

They are both what they are,.. the choice comes down policies.

Hardly. One is a felon, who has few policies created or expressed. One is "close to creating one" policy that he has been bitching about for 10 years. One has no grasp on reality and constantly lies and tries to fear monger instead of outlining what could be. One has no moral compass and has repeatedly broken the law to enrich himself. One is laughed at behind his back and increasingly to his face.

The other is a black lady who has laid out a number of policies and wants the US to be a place where everyone has a shot.

Maybe he should articulate himself in such a way that people don’t take him at his word? MAGA are the only ones able to magically interpret what he “really meant”.

When someone shows you who they are, believe them.

 

[BrunoMars420]

I will say that she really didn’t say much and stuck to the plan which was to say generalities and poke the bear and go at Trumps ego. It worked, the boomer couldnt stop talking about fake social media posts and himself.

 

[funksouljon]

OP, if she lied they would have fact checked her, but he was a constant stream of lies and was only checked 5 times? He should have thanked them for that.

 

[SoProudNole]

That is a STUPID take.

 

[mthawkeyes]

Or concepts of policies...

 

[theVoicefromtheTomb]

They are both what they are,.. the choice comes down policies.

Like the policy of allowing Russia to take over Ukraine.

 

[mthawkeyes]

Like the policy of allowing Russia to take over Ukraine.

I guess it sucks to be them. If only they had indulged Trump when he made his perfect phone call.

 

[Rifler]

Like the policy of allowing Russia to take over Ukraine.

Not aware of anyone who claims that position as policy....

 

[EasyHawk]

OP has difficulty facing reality.

 

[bunsen82]

Like the policy of allowing Russia to take over Ukraine.

I would talk to Putin . . . I would talk to Zelensky and I would make a deal. Russia never would have attacked if I was president. Moderator, do you want Ukraine to win . . . Trump refuses to answer the question.

They also let him speak around 15 more times than she was allowed to. He spoke for more minutes than she did.

Trump has no policies other than tax cuts for the wealthy. I guess that's the most important thing to you...helping the rich get wealthy.

Yeah, but haven't you heard, leaders take over the conversation! <eyeroll>

He doesn't claim Project 2025 but everyone with a brain knows that's what he will be implementing. He's lying about that too.

No. He is. He is garbage even beyond running for president. Can't wait for him to shit all over 9/11 as he usually does.

Always the victim and full of excuses. Straight out of the MAGA playbook.

 

[Bulldogs1974]

What's not healthy is believing a liar. It's truly astonishing how many people in this country are willing to suspend all logical thought to believe this guy.
