Excerpts: "The first Presidential debate was not Trump vs. Biden, nor was it Republican vs. Democrat. It was not even Conservative vs. Progressive. Rather, it was a rudderless, repulsive, sickening confrontation between one demonic man’s shameless, angry, screaming, interrupting self-justifications on the one hand, and the steady march of reality on the other. Joe Biden, playing the role of our better angels, stood his ground, resolute and unflinching in the face of the appalling crudity, cruelty, and deceit of Darth Trump. When the full measure of last night is taken, we will see that America came to Biden’s side. Many people who commented that there was 'no winner' ; many who chose to conclude that “American lost,” or that 'the people lost.' I disagree. America needed to see this..."
"An unfortunate byproduct of the rudderless shit-show is that Trump’s behavior has become the entire story of this debate, and because of that overwhelming story line, few were able to focus on the aspect of the debate that should have us terrified… the things he was actually saying. By a quantum factor, there was a single moment in this sickening evening that should make us all realize that we have barely scratched the surface of Donald Trump’s depravity. Forty minutes into the debate, moderator Chris Wallace asked Trump if he would “condemn white supremacists.”
"Pay attention, Donald. There are actually three things humans cannot avoid: death, taxes, and reality itself. Yes, you’ve avoided death, so far. Yes, you’ve managed to avoid paying taxes, but that little omission is already coming back to bite you, big time.
And avoiding reality? Those who try to compete against reality inevitably find that when they get to the finish line, truth is waiting there for you. When you race against the truth, you never win."
