    Have not had a chance to watch the debate yet. But if you are complaining about Scott Foster, it usually means your team lost.

    What do you think he could have done to keep Trump from over talking everyone? Nobody will be able to do that unless they cut his mic.

    What does the political parties have to do with this?

    The electorate picked these guys, The democrats had 5 plus people running to the nominee.

    Its depressing that people are still crying about political parties like we still got Tammany Hall.

    Get over yourself.

    Biden should have asked him why he makes them sign waivers if it isn't any big deal. He wants to cover his ass, but doesn't give a damn if they get it, if they spread it, and if people die.

    I wish someone like Yang, Corey Booker of Mayor Pete could have debated Trump. Either one would have made Trump look like even more of a clown. He would have just shut up eventually.


    Shame shame.


    That said, Biden did just fine, but these are pointless. Only way they should have another one is if Joe Rogan is moderator and can Muay Thai kick each as they interrupt each other.

    Joe Biden needs to win Michigan and Minnesota.

    BTW, are you going to acknowledge that Trump told racists to stand by?

    He has a point. The GOP is pathetic. Still the Democrat party placed Biden as their leader and he's no where near the best representation of a moderate Democrat. Hes meh. The Democrat party has its issues. This two party system is not working out.

    When one party is so horrible and there is only one other option, than there aren't many ways voters can express their opinions. You either support a fascist or just a meh.

    debates won’t change who I vote for. And a lot of people in Minnesota and Michigan are at odds with the governors their due to the stay at home overstay in Michigan and the riots in Minnesota. I wouldn’t be shocked if trump won both those states

    Hopefully GOP reforms but will the democrats reform as well instead of basically turning into the socialist party. Just amazing that neither party can have a good solid slightly right or left leaning candidate that is well respected without any major controversy surrounding them? Is that too much to ask? Apparently so.

    Then why does Trump, when asked to denounce White Supremacists, call out the Proud Boys????

    Agreed. Trump is STRENGTH. Biden is weak and frail. Black men know that Biden's not the guy. He's not an alpha. Biden also WROTE the 1994 crime bill that demonized black men and led to their mass incarceration over the past 25 years. He literally wrote the bill and referred to black men as "super predators". All true.

    But your primary point about family values and having both a mother AND A FATHER is at the core of the problems in the inner city today.

    Real commentary: Few moments stood out to me. 1.) Biden telling Trump to shut up. I am glad he said it, but it was sad he said it or had to say it. 2.) Trump trying to **** on Biden for going to a state college. Trump had numerous snide comments throughout the night, but that one was filled with pure hatred to a person Trump perceives as “lesser stock”. 3.) Trump refusing to call out white nationalism. These are easy points. 4.) Trump at the end trying his damndest to delegitimize the 2020 election because of mail in voting.

    This does not move the Needle and Biden stays 7-8% ahead in the national polls with a 4-1 chance of winning it all. I would prefer these two did not have another debate because Trump is not capable of behaving during these.

    So we are not supposed to vote by mail because of fraud and Trump said the SCOTUS and new justice should decide on counting the mail in ballots. If we vote in person we are going to be harassed by Trump supporters in the actual voting area? Also, don’t vote if you are a minority because apparently white supremacy is okay.

    Basically if you are brown or black or have a vagina and think for yourself, don’t ****ing vote... you will be surrounded by assholes without masks and not social distancing, you will be surrounded by angry white supremacy Trump voters watching everyone vote... oh and If you some how do manage to vote, the President isn’t going to accept the election results.

    I don't know, I feel like as a black MAN I could not support a president encouraging racists groups.

    Our country will only be in better shape when we dump Trump. He had his chance. All he did was lie, lie, lie, while watching people die, die, die.

    You are confusing Clinton with Biden on the super predator comment.

    Any any half-wit knows Biden is far superior to Trump on racial issues.
