Trump won because he gave Biden the sads over what a piece of shit Hunter is. There were some real feels there.

 

[Jason Blaha's Hat]

I'm not gonna lie; this was a fucking shitshow.

It's a farcry from debates way back when.

If you read about a lot of the debates in the early decades of the country, this debate was downright tame.

 

[Burd Turglar]

At this point introducing and upholding any rules would just make the show less fun, and that's what all of this is.

It's a show.

Damn funny one, though.

That's a very fair point, I was laughing my ass off at various moments.

 

[Drunk and Pour]

I only saw 40 minutes of this, but I'm not super psyched for the next two debates. It's going to be nothing but gotchas for Trump, and Trump just can't help himself.

I know he said he didn't prepare for this, and that may or may not be true, but he better prepare for the next two. He should know exactly what gotchas the moderator is going to ask, ie; white supremacy, climate change, COVID, and give a definitive answer. He should make sure he isn't baited by the moderator into losing his cool. But he was right on every time he called Biden out.

 

[Exterminatus]

Well, step-mother, if I'm not mistaken.

Yes, Hunter and Beau's mother was killed in a car crash in the 70s with their infant sister. It happened like a day or two after he won his first election to the Senate.

 

[Leslie Nielsen]

Watch out, the TES tards are gonna say you are "mad at the internet"

I love how you just show up in this thread occasionally to seethe.

 

[Ita Mori]

Did we watch the same debate? Trump came off as a manchild who couldn't defend any of his lies.

Because the other faggot did, right?
Manchild vs dementia. I can at least accept Trump's faults, while you're here sucking off Joe so much it's going to make Wallace mad.

 

[6MillionCoofs]

Nah, debate is over so we're done getting drunk

How drunk did you get?

 

[murdered meat bag]

Did we watch the same debate? Trump came off as a manchild who couldn't defend any of his lies.

whenever trump started to defend his point, wallace changed the topic. Peaceful Protest, Logan act, and antifa proud boys come to mind.

I feel why Biden lost was because he didn't articulate his positions well, rambled off topic, and refused to answer some questions.

 

[It's HK-47]

Personally, I wouldn't say there was any winner in tonight's debate. There was certainly a loser, though: Joe Biden.

Trump is not going to lose any voters tonight ... And if he's going to gain any votes after tonight, then it's going to be a very small amount. The left voting base seems to be absolutely deflated right now, though ... Joe lost some votes tonight, I think.

And as for independents ... I don't see them going out to vote for Joe in big numbers after this.

That's sort of the interesting part, is that even though this debate got so messy, they didn't get Trump to budge away from his positions, but they basically forced Biden to denounce several things that are integral to Far-Left voters. He had to crap on Antifa, had to (dog-faced) pony up to to the police, had to confusingly shit on and support the Green New Deal, and he made it abundantly clear that Hunter Biden is an incredibly hot-button issue for him.

I'm still fascinated by Joe Biden insisting that it wasn't true that his son was dishonorably discharged from the military for being a coke-snorting idiot, though, because that's absolutely, 100% true and it was a big story years before the 2016 election. Like, that's not even a contextual mistruth or an obfuscation of certain facts, he was literally discharged for snorting cocaine. It's a blatant lie to say it's untrue.

 

[RejectedLynx]

I don't really think this was an aim to be informative or whatever - I don't think anyone would lose voters over this besides super hardcore ones (aka, Biden's defunding the police statements and his absolute mess of the green deal) but, in general, I don't think anyone was going into this to win. Trump did decently - he usually does. Biden, really did fail a lot of the questions because there was no teleprompter and no one really keeping him on task - even though Wallace tried his damndest to.

Tbh, I feel the only one who's going to be feeling this is Wallace with his hangover tomorrow.

Honestly, I never liked him as a commentator and I sure as fuck don't like him as a moderator. His pussy ass can go fuck right off.

 

[FunPosting101]

Trump fought, and fought hard, against Biden and that little bitch boy Wallace and he came out ahead slightly. Not the knock-out blow I was hoping for, but Trump did well. Biden didn't have the dementia-addled breakdown or stroke I was hoping for, but he didn't do nearly as well as he needed to against Trump.

 

[derpherp2]

Aside from the hilarity.

You want to know my actual take from this slapfight?
Biden has no policies, in the hour and a half I literally heard nothing about the specifics of what he'd do if he becomes president. Just literally DRUMPF BAD I DID NAT *smugly chuckles*.

It's the main reason why I prefer this kind of political debate, absolutely no one says any actual policy, all they do is try to appeal to my emotion, rile up some sort of hot button fear, or some other shit.

I prefer the faggotry to be obvious, like Trump, than subtle (or at the least not generic) - like Biden. Less work for me.

Man, Blair's gonna completely lose their shit on Nov. 4

 

[draggs]

Chris Wallace is a fucking bitch because he did the gish gallop contentious premises into a question thing all night. To both. More to Trump than Biden. Ask a straight question and let them sink or swim themselves, stop trying to steer answers with how you ask the question asshole.

 

[Make Anime Illegal]

How many hours minutes until the "Joe totally won" articles come pouring in?

They've probably been written days ago, they just need to hit publish.

 

[Spawn]

To think the future of this country is two enraged and deranged geriatrics who spent the time bitching and moaning and turning the debate into a three way shouting match. I've seen tamer conversations between chris and clyde or Billy Mayes

 

[The Last Stand]

And as for independents ... I don't see them going out to vote for Joe in big numbers after this.

From a normie perspective, they may just vote third party or not at all.
