Remember all the Parkinson stories or neurological disease stories and videos? They led one to conclude she would be dead or at least incapacitated by now.

Hmm I think she does have something but Parkinsons does not kill you. She definitely had a few shaky sliding down to the ground moments.
She isn’t exactly lighting up the world right now either. We get tweets and released statements that are supposedly her but has she been seen a lot?

The thing that would open American eyes the exceedingly most would be a taste of the videos on Weiner’s laptop that made the police throw up.

Here is an answer to the debate format concern:

Format: The first presidential debate will be divided into six 15-minute segments during which the moderators will pose their own questions to the candidates. Candidates will have two minutes to respond to each question and they’ll also have a chance to respond to one another. The topics include: COVID-19, race and protests (and the violence that has come from some of them), the Supreme Court, the economy, the records of Trump and Biden and the integrity of the election.

https://www.usnews.com/news/elections/articles/a-guide-to-the-2020-presidential-debates

so the format nominally appears to be the standard debate format point, counterpoint, rebut, rebut.

however, that’s not what i seem to recall. what i recall is wallace going free range, asking each participant different questions, interrupting, and giving his own hostile followup questions to one debater (trump).

thus the debate turned into two timesliced interviews with wallace asking leading followup questions of trump but not biden.

what am i missing??

the format quickly became a free for all and several times wallace lost control for which imho he had himself to blame.

The last video of her, not long ago, she looked and sounded at least 20 years younger, both her face and body. She didn’t have the look of having a facelift, either. It seemed quite unusual. I wondered how she did it.

throwing more attention on Wallace to further the idea of fake news.

When is his next rally? I'm sure he will be ripping partisan-hack Walice for his performance as a "moderator"....making fun of him.

Any guesses as to his nickname will be for Walice?

I don’t think Trump needs to pick up female suburban women (that he didn’t get last time).

He is going after male Latinos and Blacks—and they like alpha males. Which he is. Clearly the leader of these three men.

According to "Team Trump" posting on Parler:

Chris Wallace only interrupted Joe Biden 15 times.

Wallace interrupted President Trump 76 times!

well because the evil demons of the left live forever or for many years beyond average life span, ever notice that? especially those in power who have all the best treatments at our expense.

The 2 minute format is wrong to begin with. It plays to democrats who run with constant talking points.
President Trump is about complex issues and real life, which take more than 2 minutes to explain.
It takes time, too, to rebut constant lies, which already have been addressed, but were put forth as facts by the biased moderator.

Your facts, your opinion. The only left wing troll is you and your Orwellian tactics.

Send Big Brother and O’Brien to torture me for independant thought. And yes, we ARE at war with Eastasia.

Trump kicked ass. Not taking liberal shit.

I thought it was aquarium stuff with quinine or something similar.

It was when Trump was saying Hydroxychloroquine was good and the left was losing their minds.

The woman said they both took it but then she was being investigated for murder?

Really convoluted mess as I recall.

Note to self...

Wanna bet, Chris Wallace will never get another interview with PRESIDENT DONALD JOHN TRUMP, ever again...

Nor will he get the VP of the United States either...

and for Joe Biden mentioning the name of KELLYANNE CONWAY...will leave a bad taste with all in the White House...that is just too bad...she was liked...

Hey, troll boi.

The idea was that Biden was going to come off remarkably smooth, lucid, and relatable, while simultaneously lying about his own record, blaming Trump, and stealing Trump’s existing agenda.

Trump would be getting c*ck-blocked by Wallace.

But Trump didn’t bend over like Mitt Romney did.

He went on the offensive and reduced their little ambush to tatters.

So what if it looked messy. It was Dem campaign entrails all over the studio.

(As the C-SPAN broadcast was closing, an audience member shouted out “TRUMP 2020” before they hurriedly cut the audio.
No such calls for Biden.)
