He hasn't said the n-word so I think he's winning the debate so far.

Kamala is not a great speaker. It’s pretty clear both of them have these talking points you always spin back on, neither can formulate an independent thought. She reminds me of Jagmeet in the debates

The focus on anti semitism and backing Israel is interesting.. goes to show who’s got da control. Spend much of the time focusing on Israel and Jewish people, who make up 2.5% of the US population.

Highlight of the show so far, Trump ranting about immigrants eating pets, gets fact checked, goes on an argumentative tirade

Is the border thing really that big of an issue for your average American?

Like is it to the degree where you spin everything in that direction like Trump has?

Trump actually started off pretty decent, but after she called out his failing rallies, he got more and more unhinged and insane, and by the end was just screaming and ranting nonsense

Kamala isn't the best talker, but she stuck to her guns (literally!) and this was one of the most one sided debates I've ever seen, in this format. I only wish Trump could be fact checked more often, because pretty much everything he says is lies.

It's always been the perfect distraction to just blame illegal immigrants, while they give tax breaks to corporations and rich people.
Look! That Mexican is why you're poor! Not us!
It's worked, but trump can't deliver it in a way that any sane person could be tricked by like prior republican candidates.

as usual - i encourage people to READ the transcripts from these dog and pony shows.

READ the words - don't just listen to the sabre rattling and the grand standing mixed in with some "ask your doctor" commercial breaks

take you about 15 minutes, then...draw your conclusions.

(I'm posting the ABC news transcript link - as the hosts of the debate, it seems the appropriate choice)

"In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in. They're eating the cats. They're eating -- they're eating the pets of the people that live there. And this is what's happening in our country. And it's a shame. "

...

Kamala: "I'm going to tell you that I have traveled the world as vice president of the United States. And world leaders are laughing at Donald Trump. I have talked with military leaders, some of whom worked with you. And they say you're a disgrace. And when you then talk in this way in a presidential debate and deny what over and over again are court cases you have lost, because you did in fact lose that election, it leads one to believe that perhaps we do not have in the candidate to my right the temperament or the ability to not be confused about fact. That's deeply troubling. And the American people deserve better."

Trump: "Let me just tell you about world leaders. Viktor Orban, one of the most respected men -- they call him a strong man. He's a tough person. Smart. Prime Minister of Hungary. They said why is the whole world blowing up? Three years ago it wasn't. Why is it blowing up? He said because you need Trump back as president.

...

Viktor Orban said it. He said the most respected, most feared person is Donald Trump. We had no problems when Trump was president. "

So he claims he's got Putin, Kim, and now Orban on his side.

Trump basically forcing Taylor Swift into endorsing Harris by using an AI made fake endorsement by her is probably the self-own of the century.

And please tell me they used Twitter's AI to do it

Typical misogyny from this guy. Very much on brand now

It’s so hard for me to separate tesla, and its own merits, from Elon the bat shit crazy lunatic running the company. It’s like if Hitler made a car company and…… oh wait. Well in my defence Hitler didn’t have any direct involvement in the golf gti so….

I’m not saying Elon is Hitler but at least he’s like goering …. Or a boreman.

Cheeto's Truth Social stock plunged 17 percent in trading this morning.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/11/inves...ial/index.html

Investors on Wall Street gave a strong signal that Kamala won the debate.

The bigger question is whether Harris' win over Trump in the debate translates to winning the U.S. presidency.

people devoted to trump will go for him no matter what he says. in fact they think hes the most honest and most intelligent person they've ever heard of, so why would anything he has to say matter?

if anything the debate has less to do with trump and more to do with harris. now people have seen that she can handle the pressure and handle it well, so it's a positive outcome for her even if it's not a negative one for trump.

I'm looking forward to the moment he totally loses it to the point they have no choice but to put him in a straight jacket.

All it'll take is a crowd to start chanting, "LOSER! LOSER! LOSER!"

I think that any election you will have voters who are sitting on the fence in terms of which president to vote for. Yes, you have the extreme Democrats, the people that Vance/Trump call the "woke left, the ANTIFA", and the extreme right wing voters who would vote for Cheeto.

From what my American cousins tell me in their home states of California and Arizona, reproductive rights/abortion is an issue which will sway votes towards the Democrats. No, my cousins are way past the childless lady stage as Moms to kids in their late teens, early 20s. Heck, they don't even like cats. They have dogs.

Trump said during the debate that most voters want each state to make their own rules when it comes to abortion. Really?

That's not what my cousins hear from their female friends and co-workers who are single. Reproductive rights for them belong to each women. They don't want a state government telling them what they can or cannot do with their bodies.

Another one of Cheeto's lies won't earn him any morevotes from single women, the so-called "childless cat ladies". More of those American voters will vote for Kamala.

Harris spoke to Americans directly during the debate. She has a plan to make groceries and other items more affordable for middle class families. She mentioned tax cuts for the middle class.

Then Kamala made a good point to contrast her plan with Trump's plan. She pointed that Trump's tax cut plan is only for the wealthy. The millionaires and billionaires.

I think she won more support from Americans who are unsure who to vote for because she made it clear what her plans are in terms of improving the economic wellbeing of middle class Americans.

That's the biggest issue during this election.

Controlling inflation and making life more affordable for families.
