Presidential Debate Preview
- Thread starter Phenomenally Frantastic
- Start date
How come you described Trump twice?
I'll have to miss the debate to watch WNBA pregame before the Fever game.
Honestly, Im not watching…….it’ll be thrown at me in “highlights” for the next month….and I don’t think I will be voting for trump under any circumstances. Red Sox might be playing.
I’ll watch for the same reasons I open links to spider shit. No chance I vote for either of them but still want to see what the spiders do.
I want to see how Joe does live without clips manipulated or out of context. That’s really all I want out of it. I pretty much know how that other stinkpile is going to be…
I'd like to know which clips you're referring to... If you're talking about the sky diving clip... I've seen it both ways, the limited view and the full view... with or without that context... Joe kinda wanders off from the group and had to be reeled in like a fish.
Yep, that’s what I am talking about. I won’t have to have you explain anything to me if I see it myself…
Will they talk about this:
Family of Jocelyn Nungaray pleads for heightened border security: 'We have to stop burying our kids'
Family of Jocelyn Nungaray pleads for heightened border security: 'We have to stop burying our kids'
I think it's disingenuous to call those videos cheap fakes after we've had the last few years of repeated lies like "very fine people" or "you can't own a cannon" or "drink bleach" etc that Joe loves to tell over and over that are basically cheap fakes of things he said or didn't say.
The debate night contrast Biden hopes will win the 2024 election
CNN —
The Almighty won’t be standing on stage alongside Joe Biden on Thursday night. But Donald Trump will.
Biden’s team is seizing on the most critical presidential debate in years to spell out a contrast on character and policy that it believes will decide the 2024 election, if only voters will finally perceive it.
It’s the embodiment of one of Biden’s own, rather defensive jokes — the idea that he doesn’t need to be universally popular, just more acceptable than the other guy, who, happily for him, happens to be the most extreme ex-president of modern times. “My dad used to say, ‘Joey, don’t compare me to the Almighty. Compare me to the alternative,’” the president has said for years at rallies. The argument is a safety net for a president with the kind of low approval ratings that would normally condemn him to a single term and who has struggled to sell his achievements to voters.
Biden’s team is setting up Trump as an “unhinged” and criminal agent of vengeance unfit for a return to the presidency who will only look after himself, rich friends, and anti-abortion zealots. Biden is reflected in this conceit as a bulwark of stability and a guardian of the country’s democratic values who is tirelessly striving to improve workers’ lives.
Biden’s campaign laid the groundwork for the Atlanta showdown hosted by CNN in a weekend memo. “Thursday’s debate will be one of the first moments in this presidential campaign where a larger slice of the American electorate will have the opportunity to witness the stark choice between Joe Biden, who is fighting for the American people and Donald Trump who is fighting for himself as a convicted felon with an unhinged campaign of regency and retribution,” Biden campaign communications director Michael Tyler wrote. Campaign co-chair Mitch Landrieu highlighted the contrast on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday. “The American people have to think about the wisdom, the character, and the judgment of the person that they’re going to appoint to lead America not only at home but also to the rest of the world.”
And CNN’s Kayla Tausche reported Tuesday that several top Democrats outside the White House want Biden to stop trying to claim credit for his achievements — including roaring jobs growth and a strong legislative record — and to go after Trump directly. “He wants the credit, but it’s not working,” one top Democrat, who had shared concerns with the campaign, said.
