Debate is scheduled for 8:00 PM Central, which is 9:00 PM Eastern.
Not sure if Mountain and Pacific will show live or not.
“Joe looks at the camera: “You know who I am.” No, Big Guy. We don’t know who you are.”
see, i disagree, because i think we know EXACTLY who biden is: the ultimate corrupt, do-nothing-except-enrich-himself Washington insider who’s been doing that for 47 years ...
Absotively Posolutely.
I wrote that after Trump brought it up once. But by the time debate ended Trump had hit that message about 4 times. Very effective
It makes me livid.
Watching this debate was the first time I’ve really suffered that fool for more than 5 minutes.
He is intolerable.
People with dementia have better long term memory than short term...at least that's the way it was with my sister. I could ask her about stuff from 40 years earlier, and she'd be able to whip the information off without a problem, but she couldn't remember the last time I'd visited her.
“Joe, I ran BECAUSE of you.” Omg he just won the debate.”
brilliant line!
And...Trump hammered lying Joe about the family gatherings around the table.
Laughable. What....looking at bank account balances and sick selfies??
I couldn’t stand 20 minutes of it.
The crapaganda disputing the effects impresses me not.
I knew what I felt even before I knew *why* I felt it.
I had no clue they were there until I happened to come around a curve and see them.
We had gone there to look at a motorcycle a cop was selling and I ended up standing at a bank right across from them for the 20 minutes it took to sign papers.
I tried going out to the car but there was no escape for the “waves” or whatever it was.
The question many will ask is why pick that guy, again, for a third try, when he was, is and always will be a miserable failure?
The answer is actually far worse,...he is the best they got!
The rest of 'em go "glurp glurp" (with a tip of the hat to cosby and fat albert)
Vote! Debate poll....
this was what ended the Biden campaign tonite...and Biden is trying to walk it back. BEST BIT IS KRISTEN WELKER’S RESPONSE:
VIDEO: 22 Oct: Mediaite: Trump Lock Horns as Ex-Veep Says ‘I Would Transition’ America From the Oil Industry
by Ken Meyer
Near the end of the debate, President Donald Trump overran NBC’s Kristen Welker in order to ask Biden “would you close down the oil industry.”
***“I would transition from the oil industry,” Biden answered, which Trump pronounced a “big statement” as Welker asked “WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?”...
UPDATE – 12:18 a.m. ET: After the debate, Biden sent out a statement to the media clarifying that the ex-veep was directing his remarks toward oil subsidies.
“We’re not getting rid of fossil fuels. We’re getting rid of the subsidies for fossil fuels, but we’re not getting rid of fossil fuels for a long time. It will not be gone [until] probably 2050.”
The ex-veep insisted that people in the oil industry are “not going to lose their jobs,” and that exploring alternative energy will result in a lot more jobs being created.
Watch above, via CNN.

23 Oct: Daily Mail: Joe Biden promises he WILL start transition away from oil industry by 2050 as he and Donald Trump clash over climate with president saying: ‘I know more about wind than you do - windmills kill all the birds’
Democratic nominee Joe Biden vowed at the debate Thursday to move away from the oil industry toward solar and wind to achieve zero emissions by 2050
‘That’s a big statement,’ Donald Trump said, then called the idea a ‘pipe dream’
By KATELYN CARALLE
‘Would you close down the oil industry?’ Trump asked Biden during a back-and-forth on the environment and energy sources at the debate in Nashville, Tennessee Thursday evening.
‘I would transition from the oil industry, yes,’ Biden affirmed, vowing to put a process in place to do so by 2050 if he were elected.
‘Oh, a transition. That’s a big statement,’ Trump said.
Biden shot back: ‘It is a big statement.’
‘WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?’ the debate moderator, NBC News’ Kristen Welker, cut in.
‘Because the oil industry pollutes it significantly,’ Biden said. ‘Because it has to be replaced by renewable energy – over time, over time...
‘We actually do give them to solar and wind and that is the biggest statement in terms of business, that is the biggest statement because basically what you’re saying – he is destroying the oil industry. Will you remember that, Texas? Will you remember that, Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, Ohio?’ Trump lamented.
Biden assured reporters before boarding his plane at the Nashville airport after the debate that people in the oil industry would not lose their jobs because there would be more created in the transition toward renewable energy.
‘Eventually we’re going to have to go to oil, but we’re not getting rid of fossil fuels,’ Biden clarified from his debate remarks. ‘We’re getting rid of the subsidies for fossil fuels, but we’re not getting rid of fossil fuels for a long time.’
When pushed on if people would lose their jobs, Biden said, ‘Well, they’re not going to lose their jobs. And besides, they’re gonna...there are a lot more jobs that are gonna be created in other alternatives.’...
‘We are energy independent,’ Trump assured after Biden claimed the ‘fastest growing industry in America’ is solar energy and wind...
The former vice president vowed while remaining on the topic of the environment and energy, that his plan would bring the total emissions to zero by 2050.
‘We have to move toward a net zero emissions,’ Biden said. ‘The first place to do that by the year 2035 is an energy production. By 2050, totally.’...
As Trump went all in against wind energy, he praised solar for being the better option of the two, but claimed it’s not ‘quite there yet.’
‘It’s not powerful yet to really run our big, beautiful factories that we need to compete with the world,’ Trump claimed.
‘False,’ Biden cut-in.
Trump also railed against Biden for his vow to ban fracking, which the former vice president has claimed was taken out of context.
‘He takes everything out of context, but the point is, we have to move toward a net zero emissions,’ Biden said.
Trump slammed the idea as a ‘pipe dream.’...

Every time he did that hackneyed “Look into the camera and pour out your pain” bit, I gagged.
He should ask me what pain WE have endured since his former boss destroyed our business and beggared us.
Him and his millions and many houses.
Personal pain, my pink ass.
“Trump is controlling this debate very well... running roughshod over the moderator.”
that’s the way i saw it too ...
I would think he would.
Maybe Biden is stuck in the 50s like many people. Probably many people here at FreeRepublic. My dad would tell me that he did many things that would get him arrested or never happen now if were to occur today. I kind of wonder what it would be like, but I am not sure I would be able to live in that world a long time.
Things are a lot better today than they were in the past. Some things have gotten worse. Overall I think the world is a much better place now.
In his mind, he’s still picking hard coal in the mines as a 5 year old.
Don’t go getting between him and his alternate reality.
“POTUS hits Joe over and over again with: “You had 8 years. Why didn’t you get it done.” “
that and the 47 years of doing nothing as well
both are brilliant attacks because there’s no way to refute them ...
One great thing that exists today is FreeRepublic.com.
fossil fuels for me, but not for thee:
