Presidential Debate Thread

CNN focus group of “undecided” voters in Eerie county. Four think Trump won, eight thought Harris won.

They go to an obvious plant to talk about how they decided to vote for Trump tonight (and they also voted Trump in 2016 and 2020).

Shocker one that was swayed to Trump, voted for him twice already.

It feels so good to have watched a debate and not be feeling sick to my stomach after. Felt good not having to hold my breath every time our candidate spoke. Felt good being able to watch a competent leader speak coherently and execute a well planned strategy. I’m not used to these feelings.

Kamala’s reaction is perfect

to be fair it split between two threads. but there is definitely an “i dont understand why people think Kamala won”. and a couple idiots ranting about fact checking.

When 37% of viewers will say their guy won when he can’t remember his name, his replacement getting 63 is kinda underwhelming

Newsmax poll 93% trump won

And that Hannity clip I posted above: “it’s impossible that Trump will be baited.”

Grunching a bit here because I only skimmed the 800 posts…

I only saw a few parts of the debate while switching from commercials during the Nebraska-Creighton volleyball game (epic 5 setter btw) with my mom.

One of the things we did get to see was the question about how they would go about ending hostilities in Israel. After Kamala answered, I paused it and told Mom what Trump’s reply would be: “There would never have been any problem if I were president. No wars while I was president. And Putin would have never invaded Ukraine if I was president.”

And basically that was what he said.

He is so fucking predictable.

I told MrsWookie that I’d really, really want to ask both candidates to explain in their own words what quantum computing is.
