🇺🇸 The 2024 U.S. Presidential Debate Thread

I think he's intimidated by her. She's smart, articulate, and to the point. She's everything in a woman that scares him. A child of immigrants, a woman of color, well educated, and can easily stand up to his attempts at bullying.

He doesn't want to be put through that humiliation again so he figures it's best to say "I won" and not get rolled for a second time.

I figured, it was more sarcastic than anything, lol, i watched last night, with no expectations and she impressed me alot, i knew what to expect from Trump and he delivered every thing i expect (worst VP in history, Biden this, Biden that, open borders, blah, blah) but she goaded him numerous times, and he fell into each trap, his ego wouldnt let him not get upset about the crowd sizes, the comment from Kamala that 81 million americans fired you was the coldest line i have ever heard in a debate

Trump really came off sounding like the racist grandpa that keeps repeating the same thing hoping to be heard.

OMG. My father really believes the Haitians are eating pets and ducks.

‘It makes me emotional therefore it’s true.’

Yep. My mother was the self hating minority that married him.

That tracks, this sort of thing seems spread by old white people, my brother said the lady who posted this in our local Facebook neighorhood group was an old white lady which then the conversation was joined by more old white people who were outraged that illegal immigrants were allowed to be in america let alone Ohio, it oozed racism

The Haitians are legal immigrants. Trump pivoted to demonizing black immigrants after Harris took over for Biden as the nominee and Lewandowski joined up. I noticed it immediately and posted about it in the election thread.

I say this with utmost respect to upstanding Ohioans like Michael Symon, but let's be real here, nobody actually wants to live in Ohio.

Was he a Qanon believer too?

Somebody always has to be the bad guy to blame for everyone's problems. I hate that it seems to be the same villians all the time.

 

[Lily Adler]

No thank God. But he became a Trump dude when he was all excited saying Trump is the first politician who actually tried what he said he was going to do in his lifetime. He voted for Gary Johnson in 2016.

I love Ohio, lived here my entire life, my family is here, there is alot to love about this state, that said, things have shifted here for the worse, gerrymandering and Maga take over has destroyed alot of this state, the population has been on a steady decline and its become pretty obvious those who left were more left leaning, rural Ohio is about as red neck as you will find, urban areas are far more progressive, like Columbus, Cincinnati and Cleveland, but no, over all Ohio is a great place to live.

I just saw a video from the cincinnati enquirer interviewing a Haitian in Springfield and he was pretty forward that none of that was happening in Springfield, but the comment section was exactly what i expected, some white dude on rant about bodycam footage and how the attorney general Dave Yost confirmed this indeed happened, thankfully the enquiring responded to many of the lies being posted saying they fact checked and found the story actually originated in Canton on 8/16 of a women killing and eating a cat with no connection to Haiti.

Yeah, obviously there are still good urban pockets. I just meant tongue-in-cheek that it is rich that those rednecks seem to be gatekeeping who can live in a place that a lot of the decent people are fleeing from because MAGA and gerrymandering is ruining it.

Your ok, i live in Ohio so i expect that from time to time, but you are right once Maga took over here its tough to deal with these morons as they absolutely cant see any reason, they are right and everyone is wrong.

**** this country.

 

[Spider-Fan]

I dont know why Trump will not debate Kamala again, his response this morning when asked about Kamala wanting another debate was "of course she does, i won" so if he thinks he won, why avoid a second one?

Cause he knows he didn't win, but he's never going to say that. Just like he refuses to say he lost the election. It's BS he is feeding to his cult

 

[Ironfan72]

Again, how are anyone undecided now, lol
