Who is watching the debate tonight?

It can’t hurt
Taylor Swift has endorsed Harris in an Instagram post, minutes after the debate’s end.
“Like many of you, I watched the debate tonight,” the pop star wrote. “I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election.”
Swift signed the message with her name, followed by the title “Childless Cat Lady,” a reference to JD Vance’s now-famous insult toward Democratic women, which he has faced backlash for.
In the endorsement, Swift also mentioned false AI impersonations of herself endorsing Trump, which she said made her worried about misinformation.
“It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter,” Swift said..

The press is going to love this.
No kidding. The commentary from outside the US is castrating Trump.
-
@wtg CNN analysis is brutal.
-
sounds like Trump actually made some important points though. if the Democrats are really forcing transgender surgery on illegal immigrants in prison, we got to rethink that.
-
That and the bit about immigrants in Ohio stealing pet dogs and cats and eating them. Donald can save the animals.
-
@wtg I think it’s payback for the couch thing.

The latest consipiracy theory is that Kamala's earrings were actually audio transmitters and she was being coached through the whole thing. They all think she did too well to have done it on her own. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/what-are-nova-h1-audio-earrings-kamala-harris-conspiracy-spreads-online/ar-AA1qnKfF

I have also decided that my new line is "I have a concept of a plan" -- it's incredibly versatile..... "I have a concept of cleaning my house. I have a concept of cooking dinner. I have a concept of doing laundry." Even better when said while sitting on the sofa eating doritos and binging netflix.

How to get him rattled.
"Donald Trump was fired by 81 million people, so let's be clear about that, and clearly he is having a very difficult time processing that"

I choose not to watch this kind of theater. Many many years have past since they had any semblance to what I would call a debate. I was in another room working on real stuff and occasionally seeing what people I respect were saying on Twitter. I got the gist without destroying my TV or my spleen.
-
I didn’t watch it either. But I did watch commentary after.
-
I watched the whole thing and yelled a lot at the tv:
"Turn off his damned mic!"
"Make him answer that question !"
"Let her have a rebuttal!!"
"These reporters need remedial training!"
"Come on Kamala! Just say it: 'You are out of your mind!'"
"Get him, Kamala!"
"These people have no idea how to handle psychopaths!"
My husband said if I didn't stop he was going to leave. LOL
fear is the thief of dreams

@pique hahahaha!

there is no debate team on the planet that could prepare that man to do anything other than what he did last night. Seriously. That’s who he is.

The hits keep coming...
Republican Karl Rove says Trump got ‘crushed by a woman he called dumb as a rock’ during ‘train wreck’ debate
Veteran Republican strategist says Trump’s ‘furious’ performance ‘catastrophic’ whereas Harris was ‘calm, confident, strong and focused on the future’
"Mr Trump came across as hot, angry and fixated on the past, especially his own.”
From the comments:
I only watched snippets of the debate, frankly because Tango Boys voice and bizarre arm movements annoy me but what I did notice was a totally unhinged old man, quite possibly with the onset of dementia, falling for Harris's subtle digs and looking like he was about to have a breakdown on live tv. Horrible man but his maga cult followers will still vote this bloated fruit loop.

"Bloated fruit loop."
I am so borrowing that description!
