I am not, although my TV will not have a hard object thrown through it, so there's that. If the Universe has any good in it, Trump will collapse in a pile of his own lies right on the stage.

I like Joe, and it's an existential necessity for him to win, but I don't think he's handled it very well. He should be loaded for bear with more scathing material and he should be spewing it regardless of what Dump says.

It's painful to watch, but Magat's are probably loving. If the nominee was Al Franken, he would be slaughtering Trump in this format. Joe will be a fine President, but he's not quick on his feet for this.
