When I heard this man said that immigrants were eating dogs and cats, I said that’s enough.

What do you mean? He saw it on the Qanon Channel. Also "some people" told him it was true. If that's not proof enough then...welll...then...uh...

I’m praying there are enough people in North Carolina who will reject MAGA this Fall. We have a Trifecta of losers here: Chump, Mark Robinson, and Michele Morrow.

Keep praying. There’s an illness running through this country and this guy (and the MAGA’s) could be elected. I don’t understand how or why.

He actually said, "I saw it on TV!" Did you catch that? Okay Donald, so you see something on Fox written by your own disinformation writers. and then you repeat it because you're too lazy to get the info verified before spewing it at a freaking live presidential debate! It doesn't get better.

Hey Mike, I'm a childless cat lady for Harris and that hurts. Funny, but hurts. To think of anyone ever harming a fur on their head, and sadly people do. I know you're kidding, but I had to add my 2 kibbles.

“He just can’t help himself.” Great response Steve. You nailed it. She called him out over and over again. President for the people …

She put him over her knee. Started with the handshake when he tried to run away. Of course the geniuses at the Dump campaign never saw that coming. Bwah hahahahaha !

Ironically, it is Trump who claims Haitians were eating cats and dog because of Democratic policies, yet it was Trump who welcomed RFK Jr. into his campaign; the only guy who we know has eaten a dog for dinner in S. Korea.

Oh, and did I mention he left a bear cub carcass in Central Park when he was 40 years old, as some sort of fraternity prank? A 40 year old man! Let that sink in!…:)

OMG she was awesome. He was just ridiculous, as always. And this debate showcased their differences perfectly. He thinks Orban is a leader to be emulated and comes right out and admits it! He’s almost too stupid to be dangerous, but there are a lot of stupid people who believe his every word. So we have to be vigilant and focused on making this a fair election. He will lie, cheat and steal to make it happen, and his sycophants will grovel to help him. We can win this! VOTE BLUE!!!

For me, Trump's most pathetic moment was when the moderator said you've had nine years to come up with a health care plan, and do you have one now?

Remember what Trump's answer? After a hem and a haw he said "We have concepts."

JFC!!! Too bad there wasn't a follow up asking him to name just one of the concepts.

Trump's answer would have been something along the lines of *hem haw* "We have ideas."

If challenged on that, he would have gone on about how during debate prep he personally witnessed a hoard of at least 5,000 Hatians roasting crocodile pets on the beach in front of Mara Lardo. And if you don't believe people in Florida keep crocodiles as pets, then you don't know Florida. Also Hatians are collecting electrocuted sharks that wash up on the beach and putting them on spits and roasting them along with dogs and cats and ducks and sheep and iguanas. People in Florida keep iguanas as pets. Did you know that? And speaking of Florida, he is up 34 points there and by the way won Georgia in in 2020 by at least 500,000 votes. Probably more like 500 million. Or maybe even 500 billion. Did you know he is a billionaire. He knows about billions! In fact just yesterday Victor Orban called about "The Steal" and they had a nice chat. Orban really likes him. In fact Orban is still upset by that fake Time Magazine cover of Kamabla who might be black but who knows and who can't get 500 people to one of her rallies while his rallies average at least 700,000 and at the last one he personally had to turn away another 60,000. Or maybe it was 600,000. Could have been 6 million or ...

Sir, the question is about your health care policy.

"Did I mention Victor Orban called me yesterday? Or maybe it was this morning. Great guy!"

I believe Trump campaigned in 2016 on the claim he already had developed a better and cheaper health care plan than the ACA. But, of course, he also said Mexico would pay for his environmentally destructive and hateful wall. Why any one believes anything this scam artist says is beyond me.

It reminds me of Nixon campaigning on the claim that he had a secret plan to end the war in Vietnam. I remember thinking, if a true patriot had such a plan, he would reveal it immediately and not keep it a secret. Actually that is closer to Trump ordering Mike Johnson to kill an effective bipartisan border bill because keeping the issue alive would help his campaign.

I remember when that (*severe explative deleted*) Kayleigh McEnany was interviewed on 60 minutes, and post-interview unceremoniously DROPPED a "health care plan" contained in a thick, HEAVY, three-ring binder directly onto 75-year-old Leslie Stall's arms.

McEnany is your typical MAGAt fake Christian, and she proved it right there if not hundreds of times before and since.

Of course the binder container no health care plan of any kind.

Now they have the 2025 binder - not empty - 922 pages. When he loses, can he be patriotic enough to tell Putin, no no no Vladimir! We're so strong. Be afraid! Then Orban - the strongman! Then Kim. Then he can be a hero!

It was probable a binder filled with 5 years of the Inquirer rag.

Does Trump really think Americans believe him when he claims-

Newborn babies are executed and this policy is supported by Democrats?

He was being sarcastic when he said he now accepts that he lost by a "whisker"?

He is working on a better and cheaper health care plan than the ACA?

Immigrants are eating our pets?

He is tough on Russia?

That Victor Orban is a good person to have backing your presidency?

That Harris and Walz, gun owners themselves, want to confiscate all guns owned by private citizens?

That the crime rate is falling around the world and rising in America because every nation is sending their criminals to the U.S.?

That Americans did not notice he is incapable of justifying his order to puppet Mike Johnson to kill the bipartisan immigration bill because he would lose his favorite issue?

He lost the debate bigly, not only on substance, but on appearance and attirude. Congratulations Ms. Harris.

Excellent summation of the best presidential debate to ever be televised in our modern day. Harris was unflappable in making her case to be President, with exact policies that she would enact, while plainly describing the despicable and disgraceful character of Trump, through the comments made by those who served under him. He was unhinged throughout the debate, incoherent and pathetic. Will the Trump voters who watched this debate see what everyone else saw, that he is wholly unfit to serve as president.? I have little faith in them but hope that the rest of us vastly outnumber them in November.

My worry is the swing states. It is difficult to tell with the people in these states — they have too much power because of the disgrace called the Electoral College — but I hope sanity prevails. The Electoral College is rooted in slavery and should not exist, but here we are.

Trump offended the American public when he claimed Kamala "turned Black" at some point in her life as it was to her political advantage, bringing race into his campaign once again, while simultaneously claiming he didn't care about race. Remember he claimed to me the least racist person in America, Yeah, right.

Vice-President Harris did another thing last night that no Trump political opponent has ever been able to do -- she took down and garroted the greatest bully American history in a 90-minute tour de force of rhetorical splendor and humanity.

I am so proud of the job Harris did last night. I will be honest, I was nervous beforehand. I wanted to join a chat but the closer it got the greater the anxiety I felt. Please understand I knew that Harris could kick his ass all over the stage but it’s been a long ten years. So, I hurriedly made a list of easy household tasks I could do while watching because I can’t spend one more minute looking at that lying, unfit, blob as he tries to rewrite history. His voice nauseates me. Doesn’t he realize that he has several “tells” that he uses right before he says something so obscene, so offensive, so wrong that a normal person’s brain just shuts down. VP Harris’ voice just ripped him over & over & I enjoyed every moment of it, followed by outrage that this man was sharing a stage with her. Today I shall thank God for giving VP Harris the tools to annihilate 45 & then I will put up my yard signs out front under the camera that covers the entire yard. I don’t want to be to celebratory because I did that once with Hillary. I know one thing, when Harris wins, I will celebrate her & Hillary. I will celebrate every warrior in this fight that stood steadfast as the GOP, my party for over 40 years, embraced this felon & sabotaged every measure that good Americans tried to do for this country.

Thank you, Steve, for tying this up so well. Thanks for being the 1st political junkie to validate my misgivings about the felon so many years ago. We didn’t always agree, but, not once did I question your love, loyalty or commitment to this beautiful country.

Ok, so, let’s get back to work. We still have things to do!

With so much Respect,

Cindy

Looking at the “silos” on the other side (Fox, Breitbart, Megyn Kelly etc) the hatred and anger over every aspect of last nites debate is at the boiling stage. So, 1st off, I’m not sure Harris’ performance can penetrate whatever illness has taken root in our society - because it’s really bad. 2ndly, it already makes no sense in a rationale society that this miscreant can be within the margin of error for reelection. When the polls come out later this week showing, once again, Trump’s enduring support, it’ll be further proof that our country is on the brink of something quite disastrous- I don’t know how else to say it. We’re in trouble.

Expand full comment

I don't think much, if anything or anyone, can "penetrate whatever illness has taken root in our society". However, she very effectively dismantled much of his bluster and BS, thus expanding support for her for those somehow undecided. TFG didn't do that. He basically did nothing more than yell his insane rally talking points. So, his strong supporters are still his supporters, but he gained few if any of the undecided with that rambling steaming pile of shit he vomited throughout the debate.

Expand full comment

Yes, well already I’m seeing news blurbs to the effect that the debate hasn’t greatly impacted the polls. And that’s precisely what I’m talking about. Trump could have disrobed last nite and mooned the audience and it still wouldn’t dent the division in the electorate. It’s unbelievable
