Listening to Trump raises both my blood pressure and blood glucose, not to mention making me both angry and sick to my stomach.

But it might be like slowing down when you drive past a gnarly accident. Can't look and can't look away.

It will be live here at 11am Wednesday and I'm looking forward to the hillarious comments that are sure to be posted on DU.

I can barely stand to give the yam the attention he is so desperate for, and watching him live is a torture. Even more so for spouse and much of my community. Normally, like some others here, I prefer to have those with stronger digestive tracts watch and filter-feed for me, catching the commentary later. But having watched quite a bit in 2016, how could I not now?

Even if I put the Trump parts on mute, I don’t think I could stand seeing him that much.

It's not like I need to learn anything. I have a limit to how much junk of Trump I can hear.

That may have been the most fun I've ever had watching a debate. It was so entertaining and I loved every second of it.

againt Romney. With so much riding on VP Biden's debate I was way too nervous to watch so my son watched it on his laptop with headphones. Pretty early in he told me how well it was going and I flipped it on.

If all stars align, and I am intoxicated enough so as to reach for the remote, and sober enough to succeed in working it, ... maybe for a few minutes.
