I confess that I don't have the stomach to watch the debate

[Orrex]

15 seconds of that strained fart voice coming out of that prolapsed anus mouth, and I can't hold in the shrieking any longer.

Somebody call me if he looks like he's about to stroke out on live TV; I don't want to miss that.

[Funtatlaguy]

1. Me either. I will watch the reactions on here. Hope there's a thread.

[Squinch]

7. That's my plan. I just can't watch him.

Also, there's something about the debates that makes me think of figure skating competitions: you're always half waiting for them to fall from a great height onto their heads.

[rurallib]

2. Me too

I will give it a try, but I already know I will get pissed and move on -
I will follow comment on DU and Kos

[OAITW r.2.0]

3. Why? Trump ain't in control.

And he has a 4 year track record to defend.

[Orrex]

4. If he doesn't shit himself on camera, the media will praise his "unexpectedly strong" performance

While Biden will "seem to have trouble connecting with voters."

That playbook makes me want to vomit every time we see it, and we see it every time a Republican gets their ass kicked in a debate.

I'll catch the highlights afterwards.

6. Prediction. Trump will debase himself.

Biden will sound like a real President. MAGAts will think Trump WINS. Democrats will know he Trump beclowned himself. Another 2% of ? undecideds/soft Trump supporters will bail.

12. You've just channeled tomorrow's headlines.

[c-rational]

5. Quite understandable.

[BannonsLiver]

8. I'm still undecided about watching. 26 minutes.

I hate the circus atmosphere of our politics.

[Red Mountain]

9. I'm going to watch at least a bit

but damn it's put me in a sour mood.

[paleotn]

10. I've haven't listed to more than a few milliseconds of Donnie's voice since 2017....

and I ain't breaking the streak. He has nothing to say that interests me. Plus, I'm not much into debates. The formats usually don't allow nearly enough time get much into discussion and only allow for sound bites and quips. I like quips as much as anyone, but I like details better.

[regnaD kciN]

11. Same

[Crunchy Frog]

13. I can't watch it either. I'll be reading here for the blow by blows.

[bedazzled]

14. Don't need to watch

Would vote for a cabbage before I voted for any thug

[BamaRefugee]

18. Exactly

[bedazzled]

24. Biden could turn into jelly like the guy in airplane 2

And I would still vote for him

[asiliveandbreathe]

15. Nope..can't watch..will be following Daniel Dale twitter..fact checking..

16. Will there be a live thread?

I can’t watch. I’m too nervous.

[oswaldactedalone]

17. Hate to admit it

but I didn't watch Trump Hillary and I'm very stressed about this debate. Still deciding whether to watch it.

[moondust]

19. Yup.

It's not really a "debate" when one party is nothing more than a 2nd grader trying to slander people with juvenile name-calling and pretending he's the Second Coming who makes the sun come up.

[mindfulNJ]

20. Same.

I get nauseous just thinking about it. I'll be "watching" through DU tonight.

[mvd]

21. I'm following it on DU

If there’s a Trump meltdown, I will tune it in.

[ancianita]

22. I hear you. I'm doing it, anyway, for Joe. And because I love MSNBC's three anchors.

[Fullduplexxx]

23. I cant take him anymore either

[GopherGal]

25. I especially hate it when...

he makes that faux casual/confiding shoulder to camera, elbow-to-the podium move that probably covers some kind of physical ailment. (I think he does it as left elbow/arm supported on podium, left shoulder forward and about 6 inches lower than right shoulder.)

It just screams "phony" to me. Then again, him inhaling/exhaling at this point gets on my nerves...

Schitt's Creek might be the prescription...

[Orrex]

26. At my job two days ago I heard too much of a Trump speech at some rally

He sounded like a fourth grader brought onstage to fire up the crowd before the main act, where the main act is a man who eats shit off of a plate.

He spewed nothing but lies, insults, and masturbatory self-praise.


And the crowd of cultists swooned all the while in perpetual orgasm.

[Dr. Strange]

27. I couldn't watch it either.

15 seconds of that strained fart voice coming out of that prolapsed anus mouth, and I can't hold in the shrieking any longer.

Wow, you're really being hard on Chris Wallace, come on dude.



My wife watched it, and I caught the sounds of Trump's constant interrupting. It was just nuts.
