Hussein has the vapors as sees his fourth term slipping through his fingers.

[asinclair]

Methinks pot calling the kettle black.

[LittleBillyInfidel]

Hey, look! It’s “Mr Cool Guy” with the phoney self-deprication act!

[Jeff Chandler]

More gaslighting.

Trump donated his salary so it’s not difficult to see who is who

[hanamizu]

“Trust me, I know. But this election is still a choice between someone who has fed at the public trough his entire life and someone who cares enough about America as to sacrifice millions of dollars of his own money...”

[rockabyebaby]

WOW! So HUSSEIN is telling “folks” to vote for Trump! Suhweeeeeeeeeet!

Obama wants Democrats to support and vote for Biden despite their lying eyes that saw and see him as an incompetent old man unable to carry out the duties of president.

...because the alternative, Trump, is worse. /s

[Preachin']

Sometimes a candidate says something really stupid, doesn’t give a full answer, or perhaps doesn’t capitalize on the other person’s mistake.

But... That’s not what this is. It wasn’t a bad debate. It was a public display of how completely pathetic Joe Biden is.

They can try to spin this, but the public simply can’t unsee that debate, and true independents can’t pretend it didn’t happen.

[TexasFreeper2009]

it’s not about a debate its about dementia

[grobdriver]

a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself

Is that right, Barry? Fought for ordinary folks?

Let's ask a few "ordinary folks" how well Biden has "fought" for them.

Shall we ask Jocelyn Nungaray? Well crap - can't ask her.
Or, howabout we ask Rachel Morin how much Biden has done for her.
No? Maybe Patricia Portillo has an opinion.
Or Alexis Godoy?

The meat puppet who occupies the oval office has blood on his hands, along with his useless wife and most of his administration, AND YOU, TOO, you bastard.

[RckyRaCoCo]

...in a post-American world.

[Gaffer]

Hussein, we’re not gonna give your boy another bite at the debate apple. There’s no need for Trump to do anything now, much less agree to give grampa another shot at it.

[navymom1]

So I’m wondering what is going on behind the scenes. What is the real plan?

[Political Junkie Too]

Barry Soetoro - D eceiver

[KingofZion]

As others have noted, this wasn’t just bad like pretty much every incumbent’s first debate (including RR).

This wasn’t terrible, like Ford flubbing the Poland question, Dukakis bumbling the death penalty question or Carter on the receiving end of “There you go again”

This was a game changer, the worst performance since Nixon 1960.

[Churchillspirit]

They sure do....I'm old enough to remember these...

Nixon perspiring.

Mondale could not help laughing at Reagan's youth and experience remark.

Bush 41 looking at his watch.

Nothing nearly as bad at last night.
