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.

I cant wait to wake up in the morning to see how much time and effort that the doc whoever he may be puts in to make himself feel better that anyone else.

First bomb dropped by Trump

Excellent showing from the President.
The market moved 8% towards him throughout the debate which says more than any snap debate poll that no doubt will, as usual, say the opposite.
Biden really struggled on the Hunter emails and on fracking. He really flagged after an hour, glancing at his watch and stumbling over his words. Absolutely shot himself at the end when he said he was going to get rid of the oil industry, Texas, Oklahoma and other key states won’t like the sound of that at all.
Trump made sure people heard that. | |

I dozed off halfway through but I thought she should have pulled Biden up on him not answering any of the questions he was asked. The first question was what will you do going forward in the coronavirus crisis. Now Trump rambled on about a vaccine ready in weeks etc and she had a number of follow up questions but at least he vaguely stayed on topic. When the same question was posed to Biden he didn’t say what he would do, he just rambled on about how terrible Trump is and he wasn’t pulled back to the actual question and she didn’t have any “follow up questions” either.
All in all it was a typically low brow squabble between two of the worst candidates in American history. I doubt any American feels any more enlightened or positive after that. | |

"To listen to Trump here blame me for everything that's happened for the last four years, you'd think I must have been President all this time. Maybe that explains why Trump hasn't done anything, he's so mentally unfit he doesn't even realize he's President, not me." | |

I am glad to see that you agree that a corrupt person like Biden should be no where near the presidency of the USA. | | | |

So he's served his nation well then whilst Trump inherited an absolute fortune from his father. Has been declared bankrupt 5/6 times and currently the only bank who will deal with him are Deutsche Bank and that loan is underwritten by the STATE OWNED RUSSIAN BANK VTB.

What nonsense you spout.
Donald Trump has never been bankrupt, utterly ridiculous to even suggest so, let alone 5 or 6 times
Biden has done anything but serve his country well. In fact he has used his position to lock up Americans for small crimes for decades while taking millions for his own family in corrupt deals.
But whatever makes you happy DJack. | |

Speaking of locking people up.
The President has just granted clemency to Duke Tanner after 16 years in prison.
He was jailed for life for a first, non violent offense under Joe Biden's 1994 Crime bill.
Biden and Harris make a great team for locking people up for longer than they should be. | | | |
