She clearly won but I don’t know if it’ll make a difference with any undecided voters. I think the overall difference will be a push 🤷‍♂️

"Media Narrative" is a poison to our democracy but honestly feeling like this might be the shift in ~*narrative*~ and we'll see the pivot to 'wait Trump is old as gently caress and completely loony' that folks have been yelling at the media about for the past month.

I don't know that I've ever seen good debate moderation, but that was probably the closest to it I've ever seen. Moderators pushed back on Trump's lies, despite the "no fact checking" rule. I can't imagine he's going to be willing to do another debate.

Trump needs two hands to drink a small bottle of water and Kamala grew up in Oakland but is also a cop so it’s a toss up.

agreed. when they actually called out some poo poo and pressed him on refusing to answer questions it was good, though i wish they'd gone just a little harder.

also wish kamala'd gotten in a last snipe: trump going on about why she didn't do those things in the last three years, why not go down to the white house and do it: because she ain't president, donald. she aint biden. :lol:

I'd be hesitant to say he even tried to sincerely dial it back, so much as put out a disingenuous strategic disclaimer to mollify the less racist on-the-fence voters.

Lol, not only does she do it...

quote:

Recently I was made aware that AI of ‘me’ falsely endorsing Donald Trump’s presidential run was posted to his site. It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation. It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth.

...but she leads into it by saying "No, the gently caress you don't".

Donnie threw out random numbers, and instant polls are junk, but here's the CNN one:

https://x.com/AlexConant/status/1833718461198897541?t=EnciHOq4CUQ6-Jwg91sHkA&s=19

I originally thought that came in kinda light, but CNN also showed the first debate, which killed the Biden campaign, as 63-37% in Trump's favor. The numbers exactly flipped.

I wouldn't count the chickens as hatched yet, Trump got smoked in his debates with Hildawg too, you can never tell what a swing voter is going to do at the last minute, they might have woken up and taken stupid pills that morning, or dropped their glasses in the voting booth.

Probably the #1 reason why anyone even distantly close to the Kamala campaign won't even start talking until they say "Kamala is the underdog in this race". They know this debate was a necessary but not sufficient event, so they're already pushing for another debate and Donnie's yammering "well why would I say yes when I won so badly".

If 2016 hubris comes back, it sure won't be from Kamala's people.
