Amen
Ultimately, the debate failed to move the needle.
I felt like crap this morning with all the negative crap going on after the debate
Doom and gloomers are so odd.
Trump was Trump, yes, some hiccups, but being seen as earnest is always going to ‘trump’ being seen as cynical.
Harris did not change the big knocks against her last night, even in a debate she ‘won.’
Debait
10 is a very small sample size.
It was Trump’s “Kobiyashi Maru”, he needed to change the conditions of the test.
Don’t let the propaganda get to you, it’s to be expected.
The one fault with Trump’s and Republicans debate strategy is not demanding more debates.
Any Republican should propose that will debate the Democratic opponent anytime, anywhere using any format and moderators so long as the Democrat agrees to the same thing in reverse.
We would get two debates, one with Democratic rules and one with Republican rules, let’s see who can best handle the hostile environment
Republicans usually agree to whatever the Democrats want and end up debating 3 versus 1
In other words, they interviewed blithering idiots.
“Doom and gloomers are so odd.”
We definitely are glass half empty types. I doom and gloom here for two reasons. First is, it’s a place to vent. A place with like minded people. Second, I’m hoping someone can show me that I’m wrong. In my doom and gloom, I would love to be wrong.
BTTT
I'm no fan of Frank Luntz, but he made some observations about televised debates back in 2016 that have stuck in the back of my mind:
1. Polls taken in the immediate aftermath of a debate are meaningless.
2. Polls taken 48 hours to ten days after a debate tend to give the exact opposite results of those taken immediately after the debate.
3. Focus groups of voters watching a televised poll are far more informative than stupid polls.
I didnt the headlines and spin was written Monday
It usually takes a while for the truth to leak out
Trump bombing info on twitter this election is a game changer!
So far I haven’t seen any reactions to Kamela’s constant smirking. It was terrible optics.
Was=were
The debate demonstrated the clear choice that Americans now have. If they want a continuation of Biben’s policies, a lower standard of living, open borders, to trade their freedom for socialist promises and policies, and globalism, they will vote for Harris. If they value their liberties and the American nation itself, they will vote for Trump.
Trump didn’t do poorly but he came across as he needed some sleep. Trump functions on 4 hrs of sleep a night but at least the night before he should have had 8
Those blithering idiots may decide the election. : )
