TWITTER USERS COMPARE JOE BIDEN LOOKING AT HIS WATCH TO GEORGE H.W. BUSH – 1992 DEBATE MOMENT RELIVED

Thursday marked the second Presidential debate, with Donald Trump and Joe Biden taking to the stage again to discuss various important topics ahead of November’s election.

This year’s debates haven’t been without their drama. In the first one, Biden told Trump to “shut up”, then in the Vice Presidential debate a fly landed on Mike Pence’s head, and the latest debate certainly didn’t disappoint either.

One key moment that everyone picked up on was when Biden intensely stared at his watch, and it’s being compared to a moment in a 1992 town hall debate.

The media hammered Bush over this. I think they made a mountain out of a molehill but there is no question it ended up hurting Bush.

With Biden, the cameraman very helpfully shifted the camera rapidly away from Biden when it became obvious he was looking at his watch. And the media would never have hammered Biden over this incident. But Twitter users and others on the internet are the real News now. This will hurt Joe.

They didn’t have smart watches when GWB was president. What was Biden reading on that watch?

Well, that's a good point and although he no doubt likely has several watches, it would be interesting to catch him in the coming days wearing a smart watch and then see him asked what he was reading at the debate.

It’s a pretty well-know incident. I was in 8th grade and recall it being a news story.

I wonder if they teach that to them?

Instead of looking horrified at something the opponent nailed you on, you look at your watch and act disinterested.

Nothing speaks more than the ‘deer-in-the-headlights’ look.

Hahaha that is exactly what I was going to write...:)

Either that, or it was “what day of the week is it?”

Bush lost because of the little gnome seated between him and Clinton.

Definitely worried about missing his appointment with the China-money bagman last night.

Lyin Biden was not looking at his watch for the time, a confederate was feeding him what to say next.

Sort of like a cat that does something embarrassing and immediately starts licking its own a$$.

No, it was something the moderator said. She said something like "we're almost out of time" and Joe looked at his watch.

Just for future reference, if I ever run for president and am in a debate, I want a six-foot-tall clock on the wall directly in front of me with a massive sweep second hand so I’ll know exactly what time it is without having to look at my watch.

Thanks.

"Says here we have ten and a half years left. My administration will extend that to at least a dozen years."
