1st Presidential Debate

[Blackcat31]

If this is the best the US has to offer, we're in trouble.

We've been in trouble for a while now. It's just getting worse. Praying we are at/nearing rock bottom so that the only way to go from here is up.

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 am tired of rich politicians and celebrities dictating how I am suppose to feel, think and act.

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

I would've termed them both the first day. ::

The disrespect, petulance and plain old stupidity in the political world these last few years is down right ridiculous.

Don't even get me started on the media...:confused:

I found it very entertaining!::

Especially the poor moderator trying to shut the candidates up to no avail!::

IDK. He was enjoying being a pot stirrer, too. I was let down by all of them.

Parliamentary Procedure is something that I respect and really enjoyed learning and practicing in my high school/college days. It gave order and dignity to debates. Respect, order and dignity matters. This was not a speak easy.

As I said, I was going to simply find highlights in the news. Wow, lots of drama. For someone who is expected to run a country, I'd expect a lot more.
I guess I'm clueless as to what a debate is supposed to be; did they cover any of the issues at all or just mock, lie and destroy?

I watched the whole thing and the after-show that happened on CNN and all of it just left me frustrated.

I am not sure the debates will change the election anyway except maybe to make people throw their hands up and not vote!

No matter how/who/what I am for; I just don't think the Dems have a candidate that can beat Trump.

But then again, I thought Hilary (not that I was for her because I wasn't) would beat Trump hands down and that didn't happen so what do I know????::

Debate highlights: Biden couldn't string together two sentences that made any sense and Trump took advantage of this by talking over him.

Yes, and while some see Trump as a 'bully'; some will see Biden as 'definite no' on the ballot because of this. Just my opinons!

Agreed

:::: I was thinking both.

I almost always feel like I need a shower after voting.

[Josiegirl]

Agreed

I do sincerely hope you're wrong.

So true.
