Who will be watching? First one kicks off in 24 hours time.
The Democrats have pulled Joe back from his campaign trail recently to get him prepared, so hopefully it will be a decent exchange.
Unfortunately they don’t seem to have great confidence as they have spent the last month looking for any dirt they can dig up so Joe can use if he gets stuck.
It’s no coincidence that this vote influencing Facebook algorithm story is being shamelessly and inaccurately made into a race issue on the eve of the debates. So transparent and disingenuous, it’s a shame politics has come to this on this level where black people are being used in this way to score political points. I would be furious if I was them, but it does seem a lot of people are not falling for this one and calling it out for what it is.
People finally seem to be getting wise to this political race baiting which is refreshing to see.
It’s also telling that in the week of the debate they try and paint Trump as a tax evasion offender. I think that’s what they wanted the tax returns to show, they seem to have got annoyed when it turns out his tax returns were fine in accordance to what his companies profits were - but decided to run with it anyway. Any news is good news in their mind as it’s another thing Joe can use when in a tricky spot.
But I hope the discussions remain political and doesn’t turn into some form of gossip peddling reality TV episode.
Although I think there should be some kind of drinking game involved if it does turn that way, how many times Biden completely loses his thread of thought and blurts out “I mean, think about it...” you have to take a shot.
I will be watching with great interest anyway.

Depends which part of them. I am highly amused and often impressed by his speeches, I think it’s one of his strong points in fact.
I would also say often you can attribute much of what he says to the media, as he uses them to set the record straight on the media disinformation campaign. Many of these speeches are also not reported accurately and may even have shaped your own views. Remember the “fine people on both sides” hoax? That is still spread by morons to this day.
You can not like the bloke if you want, nobody is asking you to be best mates with him. He’s a outsider politician and he should be judged on the results of his job - a job he has done very well in. The fact he has tens of millions of people of all colours and creeds endorsing him after years of propaganda attack against him from all angles speaks volumes.

Having been to America quite a few time and having a nephew a permanent resident there,I can tell you insularity is alive and well and kicking.
You make a good defence for Trump but it is what it is-a total shisthow ..
Most Brits hate a big ed and it' d odd anyone here sees him as credible

His accomplishments are his proof of credibility.
I get people don’t like him. He can’t be controlled and he can’t be bullied and has fun exposing the people trying, such traits that often make people annoyed with me on this forum for example. People hate it when they don’t have a strong enough point and can’t even rely on the fallback of insults, defamation and abuse. The Democrats are the equivalent of a poster without a point / hence they talk about him walking down a ramp or not wearing a mask alone on the balcony.
The media hate him, the Democrats hate him - he is the fly in the ointment as they cannot control him and he exposes their personal fallbacks for what they are. His coining of the term “fake news” is widely hated by the MSM as it has highlighted how corrupt they are.

Yet America is more divided than ever and his handling of the coronavirus has probably been the worst of all the major countries . 10 million cases 234,000 deaths.
I agree he has had many achievements and was far better than Obama and Biden has never even looked competent.
If only trump had shown some humility and not had such a confrontational style he would have walked a second term. As they say in politics timing is everything.
One minor detail, unlike the UK where we have 4 seperate areas "handling the coronavirus", America has 55 different areas handling theirs and none of them is a guy named Trump. He does not have any control over what each state decides to do, but he gets the blame.

If he doesnt win this election ,then that is not fake news nor the fault of the media.

I completely disagree.
With a fair media I don’t think it would even be close, he would have walked it by some distance. I include social media in that too that censored all negative stories about Biden and spread ones about Trump and his supporters.
That is clear in the fact that the only demographic that he lost ground on is white men, the prime target of the media who painted them as racists and bigots for supporting him based on nothing other than a widely spread lie.

Another top post fair play.
Absolutely hilarious that his irrational detractors on this forum are precisely the only demographic group he’s lost ground on.

Perhaps he should lead by example and wear a mask and not make ridiculous claims.
He may not control the individual states but can pass federal laws preventing travel etc.
A bit like the UK government who can make national restrictions even though some matters are developed to the three countries who have there own assembles.

I find it strange that the people most animated about the US elections and the what looks like out going President are the people who the country and individual have at best very little bearing on them. It's almost attention seeking if I was cynical. Don't get me wrong I've followed the election, its been fascinating but I know it doesn't affect me in the slightest. I got far bigger fish to fry personally.
I don't know how old you are or if you have kids or grandkids. But if you do what happens in America will affect them big time in the not too distant future. The only thing standing between the world and complete domination by China is Donald Trump as President of the USA. The only thing that stands between the world and the UN agendas is also Donald Trump. So maybe you should reconsider.

Trump has proved anything but.
Lowest recorded unemployment rate in history Lowest recorded black unemployment rate in history Highest median family income ever recorded Peace deals signed in the Middle East once deemed impossible North Korea conflict defused First President in decades not to sent troops to a new war/conflict Defeated ISIS and broke up the caliphate Signed police reform Lowered taxes Improved America’s position with trade with China
The list of achievements go on and on. All that and more in a single term.
Biden on the other hand has been in politics for 47 years including the White House for 8 and did naff all in all that time.
Strange innit ....

Sleepy Joe winning BIGLY then .,,... 🇺🇸☘ï¸
No, he’s winning by a tiny margin.
Comparisons like that are ridiculous, as I would hope you know. If you can’t work out why then that’s a little worrying.
It’s a bit like saying Swansea have a better losing record against Real Madrid than Barca do. The fact the Democrats are bending over backwards to make hilariously stupid statistical gymnastics like this says everything about how they feel this vote went for them.
As I said before, half of America has rejected them despite 4 years of wall to wall propaganda and all the help they could need from big tech, mainstream media and social media platforms. That’s a massive dent for them and a damning indictment of what they stand for.
