This shit is incredible. He used to tone it down when he wasn't speaking directly to his base, but he came out of the gate with post birth executions. Now we're onto Haitians eating cats and dogs, wtf?

Don't forget transgender surgery on illegal immigrants. He can't even keep his strawmen straight.

Yeah, if our country was just handing out gender affirming care, the trans community here wouldn't be in such turmoil.

I honestly had to turn the thing off because I’m so sick of hearing this guy’s blatant bullshit. He doubled down on abortion rights advocates wanting to kill babies in the delivery room. What a fucking lying piece of shit.

I hope we can make this guy go the fuck away.

I've mostly been avoiding his bullshit, at least directly, since he left office. I had to tune in here because I think this is crucial given how this campaign has played out. I truly believe if he loses here, he won't make it to another run.

You can't just believe it. People need to actually vote accordingly.

Yeah, I think I have 30m to 1h left. I started late to watch at 2x speed but I honestly think that made it more stressful. Hearing Trump's bullshit at twice the frequency is really annoying. I can imagine how Harris felt. She's handled it well from what I've seen, but does that move the needle? Is anyone who was considering Trump or abstaining really going to be bothered by the total bullshit? I hope so, but we'll have to wait and see.

I'm just glad to see she can handle being near a stressful moron and keep her rhythm regardless of what vile nonsense was getting regurgitated.

He's scared and doesn't have anything left to lean on. The hardcore didn't care what he said anyway, they were gonna vote him anywah

When neither magas nor Republicans have any policy positions... all you have left is culture-war lies and bullshit.

You forgot projection and name-calling. Probably a few more. Tuned out after Kamala triggered him. Can't stand to listen to his insanity.

I only watched the beginning, kind of hopeless that people might think he did well. I didn’t even know kept to watch: just lie after lie, told with complete confidence, and without following any theme or logic.

At least when he repeated the thing about Haitians eating your pets: surely no one but hard core racists can agree with that, right?

I found it to be slightly better of a debate, if not for Harris' reactions (but mostly because most debates are terrible). Watching Trump get baited all night was just, chefs kiss.

Looking at commentary afterwards though, man undecided voters have gotta be the least informed people on earth. Or the craziest. Or just unreasonably stupid.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 months ago

Undecided voters are just right wingers who still have some shame, or have family that would cast them out for it if they found out.

They are waiting for Donny to say something close to acceptable so they can put on their blinders and latch on to it as a reason to vote for him.

I'm gonna go with "all of the above".

If you just got done watching THAT spectacle and still aren't sure that the Mango Mussolini should be kept away from any position of power, you're hopeless and nobody should give you the time of day.

I mean you gotta be if you still haven't established that trump isn't fit to be president, even regardless of political alignment

What's up with the misogyny, ABC? They keep letting Weird 34 have more and more time, talking over his limit, talking over the moderators, and talking over Harris. Sleepy DonOLD doesn't respect women and what women gave to say, especially if they disagree with him to any degree.
