Trump and Harris agree to September 10th ABC debate - Watch Along Starts at Post 431

no, he said 186 countries

:wink:

Trump is consistent, I’ll give him that. He’s saying the same nonsense here that he says in his campaign rallies.

I hope not. I work around a lot of MAGA people. If he had a stroke, they’ll blame the deep state, and Harris for trying to kill him.

There’s something deeply amusing about showing a commercial for Joker: Folie a Deux while the real life version of Arthur Fleck is onstage.

He’ll never smile, so we may never know…

Well that was, not enjoyable, but seeing TFG blather in this spot is good. Hopefully it’ll do some good.

You could actually see how much he liked his use of the big word sphere so he had to repeat it. He was so proud of himself.

My one complaint is Muir calling him President and not getting back to what would it actually look like to round up millions of people. He didn’t force trump to answer that in detail.

Even though I think she is wiping the floor with him, this is still hard to watch. His face, his voice. So orange and whiny.

I really thought he was baiting Harris to quit the debate and walk out. Because he knew his ass was being handed to him.

This is good comedy.

He’s already melted down. He’s gone from the debate-prep fake persona of sounding reasonable to an angry raging blowhard, while Harris maintains a calm and professional demeanor with a smile that occasionally breaks out into laughter at the Orange Blowhard.

One thing that I love that Harris is doing, it’s like she put together a list of everything bad about Trump and she’s finding a way to mention EVERY BIT OF IT.

(You know, I bet that’s exactly what happened.)

Don’t forget, he won the coin flip and gets the final word. He may be saving it for his closing statement.

no handlers/consulting allowed in the break as I understand

An hour in, has Trump answered any questions? He’s your drunken uncle at Thanksgiving, sticking to his canned grievances he’s been spouting for the last eight years.

I love that he brought up ‘immigrants eating your pets!’ Talk about deranged.

By contrast, Harris is coming off great. I love it when she laughs at him.

Oh, ‘Every leader is laughing at you!’ ‘Oh, yeah? Erdoğan loves me!’

I thought the same thing.

George Costanza: It’s not a lie if you believe it.

Wow. I swore I wouldn’t watch but I keep dipping in and out, and good grief, but the Donald’s grimaces are something else. Harris is definitely getting under his raddled-looking skin. He looks awful, old, unhinged, and she’s strong, focused, doing beautifully subtle eyerolls and just enough laughs.

And we’re back!

I love when they ask Trump a “How exactly…?” question because I know he’s not going to answer it.

I admire you guys. My degree is in Politicsl Science so this should be something I’m watching intently, but I can’t stand the sight or sound of that…thing so I’m catching the commentary from the people with the stomach to watch.

It sounds like it’s going exactly as expected.

That’s just about all of them. Sounds like McCarthy’s 81 known communists in the State Department.

So he won’t say he wants the Ukraine to win.

He won’t say it.

The man is Putin’s lapdog
