    “No, no, he didn’t say the n-bomb. He said Niger, like the country in Africa. You just weren’t listening. You should get your ears checked. And even if he did say it the way you think you heard it, the deep state media deliberately did something to the microphone to make it sound that way. And even if he did actually say it, you just don’t understand, and besides, Kamala once laughed at one of Joe Biden’s jokes.”

    I hope you told her that and explained it to your class. Great teaching and discussion point, probably could spend at least one entire class period going around on that one.

    No voters who matter will be watching this, so it really doesn't matter. No needles will be moved.

    “Deadliest Catch” will be my mom’s preferred debate tonight.

    I’m confident that Harris is going to run counter treys and wide zone sweeps all night and protect the lead. It won’t be a 50-10 blowout but it will keep the momentum towards victory going.

    I'd like to see her answer a question for Trump and help him out - what he was "trying to say is..... but that is detached from reality - really, he can't even tell consistent lies!!!"

    Usually the late, late deciding voters break against the incumbent. But this year, both could be viewed as the incumbent in some sense. So God only knows.

    Trump on voter fraud:

    Trump announcing to table at restaurant: I'll just pay in cash.

    Server: Here is your receipt if you can sign a copy sir.

    Trump: I paid in cash. Why do I need to sign?

    Server: Sir, here is your credit card and the receipt with today's date and time. You just handed it to me.

    Trump to his table: I paid in cash, didn't I?

    Table guests: Oh, yes. It was cash. We definitely remember that.

    Trump: See this is what they do. They twist things around. I should never dine in democratic restaurants.

    For fuck’s sake. If we’re already at the point trumplicans are all-in on the racist lie that immigrants are eating pets, I really don’t want to know what’s next in a week or a month. The vast majority of Americans have to be tired of this fake reality bullshit.

    Somebody put me in a coma and wake me up at Thanksgiving.

    Debates themselves don't matter much to election outcomes. How they are portrayed in the media (now including social) and absorbed as information by the people who didn't watch can matter a great deal. The immediate reaction of people who watched the first Bush-Gore debate was strongly pro-Gore. A few days of "he sighed" coverage depicting Gore as a stuck-up know-it-all and lo and behold, polls showed most people thought Bush "won" the debate.
