🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 01:18 - Sep 29 with 222786 views | Dr_Parnassus | 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.

🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 on 16:21 - Oct 24 with 1341 views | DJack | As President Trump entered the final stretch of the election season, he began making more than 50 false or misleading claims a day. It’s only gotten worse – so much so that the Fact Checker team cannot keep up. As of Aug. 27, the tally in our database that tracks every errant claim by the president stood at 22,247 claims in 1,316 days. | |

🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 on 17:28 - Oct 24 with 1323 views | Dr_Parnassus | So you get caught out for lying and it is me ''splitting hairs''? A business declaring bankruptcy and someone declaring bankruptcy are not even close to being the same. You can make millions personally from a business venture on the whole before declaring it bankrupt.Bankruptcy is immediate failure to be able to meet overheads due to finance generation, not historical. | |

🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 on 19:10 - Oct 24 with 1310 views | Gwyn737 | I’d say it’s morally wrong to move from business to business, making millions personally then screwing over your creditors. But like the ray returns, trumps supporters would call it smart. | | |  |
🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 on 19:15 - Oct 24 with 1303 views | Dr_Parnassus | It can be both morally questionable and smart business at the same time, valid points on either side of that debate. But it's not the point. It's business, it happens every day, at every single level from a corner shop to a banking firm. | |

🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 on 01:11 - Oct 25 with 1231 views | Groo | You'd swear you were talking about an innocent man put away for a crime he did not commit. "Tanner was accused of leading the Renegades, a local gang that trafficked thousands of pounds of crack cocaine and marijuana, and was convicted in 2006 of conspiracy to distribute and possession with intent to distribute more than 50 grams of cocaine." | |

🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 on 02:17 - Oct 25 with 1215 views | Dr_Parnassus | He’s a man that certainly doesn’t sound like life imprisonment was warranted. 50 grams of cocaine is like 5k worth according to a site that records average prices. Much of which may or may not have gone up the noses of the people that convinced him. | |

We new they must have them because you can't do anything there without being filmed for blackmail purposes. I don't know why they have suddenly decided to attack the Bidens after dealing with them, could it be they have lost their usefullness now. | | |  |

🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 on 10:02 - Oct 25 with 1164 views | Gwyn737 | He’s clearly talking about prevention, isn’t he? Or are you really suggesting he admitted voter fraud to a worldwide audience? Mind you, it’s was shared by James Woods, Hollywood’s answer to Katie Hopkins. | | |  |
🇺🇸Presidential debate round 1 - “Matchday thread”🇺🇸 on 10:15 - Oct 25 with 1159 views | Boundy | I'm not suggesting anything , they 're are his words not mine so I let others judge. I'm ambivalent towards either side . | |
