It’s an unpopular opinion but one I share and we here at the house share even though all of us are Trump voters. My military buddy says the same. Trump forgets he is trying to win the middle undecided voter and keeps playing for his base. The best debate for him would had been one where most people here would have been disappointed in his fight. But the fact most everyone here is fired up proves my point. He came across as a jerk to the swing voter who is the 10% who hasn’t made up his mind.

As my son just said: he should had commended Joes son Bo for his service. Trump doesn’t have that decency in him. It plays well here-but not out there.

He was kicked out of the service for drugs what’s commendable? Get your facts straight so you can make an informed point.

YES you said this perfectly. President does these debates like he is talking to his supporters. He needs to try and win undecided. The ones who don’t watch his rallies. He missed so many opportunities especially with all he has done for black community. He failed to point out all the deaths of people not going to hospitals, er, dr appts, etc. Suicides, depression. I wish he would have pointed about what about Fauci and he said “it will minute in the US FOR covid”. How he listened to the scientists.

He refuses to prepare for debates. It was like a street brawl.

That’s an interesting opinion, but there’s no good reason for Trump to commend Beau Biden for his military service. That would be inappropriate respect being shown to Joe, who is part of a crooked group of lying, cheating propagandists known as the Democrat/Media political machine, who are constantly distorting Trump’s statements and policies and using slick propaganda techniques to try to make him look bad. Showing unnecessary respect for people like this would be groveling to someone who’s trying to crush the President politically. A normal American who isn’t lying and distorting the President’s statements and policies would deserve that kind of comment about his son. But Biden doesn’t deserve it, because he has such a lack of respect for President Trump and Trump’s family.

Trump is speaking to the 20% in the middle, but not in the way you think he should. Remember the old saying from the advertising industry: “the medium is the message”. That means the way someone talks is just as important as the words that he says. Trump speaks with a lot of strength and fight, and that’s what people want in their President—someone who will fight for America and fight for them.

I agree that Trump did not win over anyone undecided. But he may have lost them.

I think you’ve made a great comment.

Don’t know he had to thank son, but definitely I wish Trump would control himself some more.

He needs to consider the audience. It’s not his base he should play to.

Biden is the one who confused Bo with Huner, not Trump.

You don’t play by Marquess of Queensberry rules when your opponent and the biased referee are knifing you in the back and side.
