All the liberals are in for a shock as they watch near 80 year old Joe wither on stage as the debate, pressure and insults fly. Their enthusiasm will deflate just like it did on election night when they saw the results coming in . 4 years the left and Democrats have been waiting for this, 4 years to get rid and go after their public enemy #1 and whats the big bunker buster they roll out... they roll out Joe Biden . Its embarrassing.

He has taken an awful lot of time off this month alone, which is depriving the American people the chance to see him face the media and tough questions, he doesn't do rallies...clearly, there is a reason why he is taking so much time off, it is reasonable to ask why!

BobbyMalone wrote: » I would find it hard to believe that the president of the United States doesn't know who the Proud Boys are - Biden seems well versed, as do all of us here. If he doesn't, then it doesn't say much about his knowledge about 'patriotic' groups in his own country. Even worse is the idea that Trump will just repeat the name of a group that has been thrown at him. Why would he 'denounce' a group if he didn't know who they were? I haven't read any comparisons of time off spent between the two candidates, but I imagine that Biden's team are looking at the polls for the swing states and realise that he doesn't have to make all these appearances. Yes, that might back-fire, but going on TV, visiting a manufacturing plant, whatever other activities make up normal canvassing for the presidency don't actually make a difference, it's not like they're doing anything more than posing for a photo opportunity or throwing out some trite one-liners.
notobtuse wrote: » I'm not complaining, Trump won the debate. And it isn't too much to ask for unbiased moderators, is it? Like I already said Wallace interrupted Trump something like 35 times and seemingly not Biden once. Also, Wallace kept pushing left-wing talking points to help Biden out and hurt Trump.
Silentcorner wrote: » Well...that would make them the first campaign team to ever think that...they must be miles ahead in the polls...which doesn't explain why there is no support for him when he does turn up in the Swing States. He has taken 10 days off this month, we can pretend that this is all normal, but it's not, it is extremely unusual, and if you think this has something to do with Covid then why doesn't Kamala do press conferences in Biden's absence?

Outlaw Pete wrote: » I didn't misquote you. I quoted you precisely. You said that the cognitive decline stuff "all seems to be because Biden has a speech impediment, a typical scummy move from Trump and his team" and that's absurd. His speech impediment has nothing to do with it. It's all the insane crap he has said. Forgetting what he was talking about etc. It's just a leftist talking point to say it's all as a result of his speech impediment.

Wallace is on fox...if he was biased it wasn't towards Biden, he exerted very little control on trump and his constant interruptions

Outlaw Pete wrote: » Nope. Just because I am pointing something out, doesn't mean I agree with it but seeing as you're bringing it up, there was a ton of comments about Trump's mental health as a result of gaffes over the last four years and I never seen the users who are upset about Biden being spoken about in this way, give two craps when Trump was subject to it. It's not largely to do with him having a speech impediment either. The vast vast majority of times that I have seen people say something is indicative of biden being in mental decline it's been as a result of him saying something crazy like that millions have died in the USA from Covid etc or being very very forgetful. It has never been because of his impediment.
Outlaw Pete wrote: » Because he was being asked to and he was trying to make a point, which was that he was willing to condemn any white supremacists that Wallace named. Ben Shapiro sums it up nicely here:https://twitter.com/benshapiro/status/1311335415467524096 So what if he is on Fox. There are liberals on Fox you know. They are not all of the same political mindset. That's the domain of CNN/MSNBC to have hosts that all agree with one another.
