Tonight's debate

"The debate is set for 9 p.m. Eastern time, and will last 90 minutes without any commercial breaks. The topics for the debate are "The Trump and Biden Records," "The Supreme Court," "Covid-19," "The Economy," "Race and Violence in our Cities" and "The Integrity of the Election," according to the Commission on Presidential Debates."

I wonder if those questions are why Trump complained that they favor Biden. You remember that? He whined about the questions.

No commercial breaks. Now I have to get the snacks out before it starts. I personally don't mind if Joe stumbles, as long as he lands one or two on the Orange kisser. I think that Trump can only speak in generalities, although he has occasionally surprised me.

Still, this is good theater, not likely to change minds, but likely to satisfy my desire to stick it to Trump. There won't be any threatening roaming of the stage, but maybe some interruptions by the Chief Scumbag. Joe will be okay.

In my wildest fantasy, Trump menaces Biden, and Joe's security people come out and throw Trump's pasty white ass to the stage floor, maybe put a chokehold on him. And, then he gets hauled away under 25A, and we proceed to the election.

I know, I know...I'll have to settle for the alternate ending. But, here I am, cleaning house while I wait for the debate. Wish I could watch it stoned, but those days are gone.
