No questions on Inflation, not one. Ridiculous.

Not one rebuttal from the "moderators" like such: "Madam VP, what do you say to the point President Trump where he says "why haven't you done what you are proposing to do""?

Also Ridiculous

Wow, honest article from Reuters. This shows that debate wins do not move voters.

One shot where they showed Klammy pointing at Trump. Which I believe was staged and agreed ahead of time.

>>Reuters interviewed 10 people who were still unsure how they were going to vote in the Nov. 5 election before they watched the debate. Six said afterward they would now either vote for Trump or were leaning toward backing him. Three said they would now back Harris

The debate was targeted at undecideds. Trump won the undecideds by a 2 to 1 ratio. Yet, the left-wing media will try to claim that Horizontal won the debate.

I’m sure the fangirlz loved it. But they were already voting for her anyway.

“Some” is 70% in this miniscule sample. Funny how that fact escaped the headline writer’s attention.

I would be interesting to know what independent women votes thought of watching Klammy do all of the smirks and stupid gestures thought...

I watched the debate via Louder with Crowder. I thought Trump was doing fine but they started going soft and thought she was doing good. They were too loud and I really couldn’t tell but I didn’t have the best feeling about it so I decided to watch the debate without any commentating. Trump owned the stage, he crushed it and it really wasn’t close. Objectively, Trump completely dominated the first 30-45 minutes. Then their was a section with Jan 6th, “Truth”(accepting 2020), peaceful transfer etc. She started doing better only at that point because the questions were framed as hit jobs on Trump but Trump kept responding and ultimately won even that section. Move to Foreign policy and Trump crushed it again. The media will think he didn’t do what was right because they don’t like his policy but actually that policy is exactly where the people are (The media and the elites still don’t get that). Trump did poorly with the healthcare question and I felt that even if he didn’t have a position he could have used that to pin her down on her policy (he didn’t). I would give that one to her just because Trump seemed defensive and unsure with where he wanted to take it. He even could have used that time to go back to the border and say illegals shouldn’t get it. The Race question was useless but it was telling as to what her “debate prep” is. Trump basically said, I don’t care. She can be whatever she wants. Comrade was not expecting that but she had a canned answer, you can see her shuffling through her brain for the answer and said an answer that was obviously not an response to what Trump said and I basically tuned out.

Trump spoke too fast for much of the night and Comrade acted like a brat. She did not come off as Presidential. She tried to use faces and poses to get attention and show frustration. She had a real “bi*c* face most of the night and at least for me her voice is REALLY grating.

That is my honest opinion of the debate. It really wasn’t close. She doesn’t have any depth of thought.

Trump absolutely crushed it last night, not even close. Astroturf’s handlers knew it, why do you think they wanted another debate almost the instant this ended? Their own focus groups and snap polls told them the same thing... she LOST AND LOST BADLY..

Ignore the stupid pundit and news trying to spin this as a Kamala win, Trump demolished them.. 3 on 1 and he just bitch slapped them all repeatedly.

Oh and Reuters, Trump won the focus group by 2 to 1, that’s not “SOME” that’s MOST!

She did TERRIBLE... even on a 3 on 1, which this was, Trump absolutely CRUSHED it... the media trying to spin this a “win” for Harris is just delusional... She didn’t win last night, she went down and went down hard...

Trump never ceases to amaze me, 3 on 1, and he still owned the night, and it wasn’t even close.

He took this focus group by 2 to 1! 10 undecideds before 6 saying they are now committed or leaning Trump vs 3 saying they are committed or leaning Harris, and 1 still undecided, that’s a TROUNCING by any metric folks and based on the Astroturf’s handlers almost instantly wanting another debate, their own focus groups and snap polling told them the same thing.. .she got owned, just absolutely owned last night.

She did not win, and it wasn’t even close.

She’s a retarded fraud. Joe Pedo needed people to write everything down for him and she’s even worse. Empty skull.

I completely agree with you. Louder with Crowder was saying that them wanting another debate shows that they are confident.

Wrong

Trump has the perfect analogy of a fighter winning a fight. He doesn’t ask for a rematch, that’s what the loser does.

Yep, ‘winning’ and ‘winning’ are two different things. I’ve been saying since last night this didn’t move the needle and people saying Trump is finished is crazy talk.

Clinton/Gore becoming pro-Abortion on the nation stage back in the day is much much different than what Harris is doing now, where they fell in line on the party’s bread and butter. What she is claiming she is for, she will not actually do once in office.

Being seen as a cynical office seeker is not a good thing.

She is the one who needed a knockout. Trump fought off 3 people in this Debate.

Yep, Crowder is a fool on this one....

The punditry just are abject idiots IMHO, they are so far detached from the electorate they might as well be the politicians themselves.

The bar the set for Harris as simply, she doesn’t die on stage, as long as she’s still breathing when its over, she’s won... which is just nonsensical.

If you were an honest voter looking for a reason to vote Harris over Trump she offered you little to NOTHING last night... She didn’t provide many reasons to choose her, she just offered political talking points and campaign speech talking points... Stuff anyone who’s been on the internet or watched TV for the last month has already heard a million times, she offered absolutely little reason to choose her. She didn’t answer questions, she just offered talking points, and really offered little to nothing in the way of why should someone vote for her over Trump. She dodged on the economy and the border, she spun etc etc...

Trump meanwhile was Trump.. he spoke earnestly and openly and answered every question, he looked and sounded like an Executive and a leader, while she just sounded like any politician for the last 4 decades talking lots but saying little.

Even in a 3 on 1 situation Trump just owned it.. every time they thought they had him, be turned it back on them.. Were there area or things he could have done better? Sure, but the notion he LOST last night is ludicrous.

Obviously the loser is the one who wants more debates, ALWAYS, this is politics 101... if you are in the lead, you don’t need the debate things are going your way, if you are losing you absolutely need it to try to change the momentum and conversation.

Kamala got CRUSHED last night, absolutely undoubtable CRUSHED... it wasn’t even close... The media trying to spin that as a win for her either are just paid propagandist and shills, or don’t understand the perspective that voters are coming from when evaluating the candidates.

Undecided’s KNOW who TRUMP is... this isn’t 2016, he’s a known entity... if they haven’t committed to him, unless they are first time voter, it’s because they are looking for a reason not to... and Kamala with her dodging and weaving and saying lots of words, but nothing really at all, didn’t give most of them any reason to decide she’s better than Trump....

She lost that HORRIBLY last night, had she won, no way on God’s green earth she would be asking for another debate almost the second it ended... she lost, she lost big, their own focus groups and snap polling showed the same thing this Reuters one did.... SHE LOST AND LOST BIG!

Trump won 2-1 undecideds, that watched in this Reuters group, that’s HUGE!!! HUGE!!!... I am sure without any question the Astroturfs handlers own focus groups and snap polls showed just as devastating a result.

We know polls are biased to sample so as to get a desired result.

People then started watching the election betting markets, and it’s an easy thing for an influencer (e.g. Alex Soros) to dump by proxy some $ with timing so that those now produce propaganda and not insight.

I remain a Trump supporter and will not waver.

However, it looked to me like he was unprepared for what awaited him...and he should have known better.

He didn’t have his facts readily available for recitation.

Of note: On guns all he had is “she wants to take your guns”...without quoting her on mandatory gun buy backs and confiscation of “assault weapons”. He also flubbed the debate on abortion...he could have hung partial-birth abortion around her neck. Instead he claimed she supports abortion after birth...without the distinction.

There are numerous other examples.

He was not prepared, likely because he didn’t read the situation and take it seriously.
