    1st Presidential Debate

    We have been engaging in Presidential political conversation since Obama's first term. Clicking on the TAGS will bring up some of the former conversations. A lot has changed over the last 10 years!

    I like using polls and will start the final month of fanfare will a simple who will be watching the debates. I am staying home with my family to watch it. I think we will see two different political philosophies and tactics. One standard and the other avant garde.

    Here's a 2017 post from the last election: https://www.daycare.com/forum/showthread.php?t=85656

    The poll is expired.

    While I am interested I probably won't watch.
    I find lately I am much happier if I reserve my evenings for anything not related to work or politics.

        I'm a channel-changer so I will probably watch some of it while watching many other things then catch up on the highlights??!!

          I plan to watch it but I'm not sure how long I can listen and watch without wanting to tear my hair out.

            This. Pull my hair out or throw something at the tv.

              I am definitely watching. Can things possibly get any worse here in America? Probably, but why not watch Amerca's most entertaining thing to be aired on TV since the pandemic started.

                I originally said no on the poll but now my husband wants to. That means I will be watching, too, since I can't sleep with the TV on. ::

                I found some fun Trump/Biden Debate Bingo cards that will make it a bit more fun for me, though. :::: Who comes up with this stuff??

                  I updated the poll to reflect your watching.

                    I’ll be watching. I’ve always been a political nerd —even before I could vote.

                        Now that the first debate is over, the question becomes, "Will anyone be watching the next 2 debates?" If this is the best the US has to offer, we're in trouble.

                          I didn't watch it. And seeing this reply is scary. :/ But I'll check the news and see what their input is.

                          Either way, being politicians I doubt there's a lot of truth of what was said compared to what would happen no matter who gets elected. Sad really.
                          Truth, justice isn't the American way anymore. It comes down to who can pull off promises and lies better.

                            Right?

                            It is so frustrating. I don't like the fact that we can only elect rich people. They are the only ones who can afford to get on the ballot.

                              I send my daycare kids to time out for acting like those two fools.
