Hollah! 100 percent right—I am not gonna go all in with fascism cuz the man had a cold. And I agree—they are still trying to do this false equivalency shit between Trump and Biden. WTAF! There is something really weird about it all, you’re right.
It isn't even equivalency. It's like being an umpire behind the batter and when the Yankees are up, they get 10 strikes before they're out and 3 balls before getting a free base. Biden is getting 1 strike and he's out and he never gets on base on called balls. I'm speaking here in the vernacular that chief justice (sic) Roberts would understand...and perform.
Yes, Biden sounded tired. He’s got a whirlwind schedule and just traveled back to the US. Who wouldn’t be tired? I understand he has a head cold; that explains it. He and his administration are doing everything they can on multiple fronts to save the world for us (literally save the world!)
But why anyone (other than the Repubs) would think the Democratic Party should change candidates is beyond me. Biden is quite sharp and very experienced. We already know this from his state of the union address and other public events. . And should he have a future off day, he’s got a wonderful VP, cabinet, and staff that keep everything moving along. This is the frickin’ “dream team!” Trump is a nightmare. There is NO better choice than keeping Biden in office, and making sure tfg gets his days in court to be held accountable.
I hope if people take ONE thing from that debate, it is that Trump REFUSED TO GIVE A ONE WORD “YES” or “NO” THAT HE WOULD ACCEPT THE RESULTS OF THE NEXT ELECTION AND CONDEMN POLITICAL VIOLENCE!! He hedged on both!! So the answer is no, he would not accept results if he loses and he supports violence on his behalf. It is clear as day, and it should disqualify him from holding any office anywhere and anytime.
Biden and his team (Kamala the VP, Blinken, and especially rock star “Mayor Pete” as Transportation Secretary!), has met or outperformed my every expectation of a successful administration. There is more to do. My lord, what they could accomplish if the Republicans would not play “spoiler” all term!
I hope if people take ONE thing from that debate, it is that Trump REFUSED TO GIVE A ONE WORD “YES” or “NO” THAT HE WOULD ACCEPT THE RESULTS OF THE NEXT ELECTION AND CONDEMN POLITICAL VIOLENCE!! He hedged on both!!
That alone should be why no one votes for the man, but as I have lost all faith in humanity, I can't say what people will do and if it will be wholly rational or not...
Thank you, Alicia!!! The press was ALWAYS going to say Biden was old & horrible & not a word about the psychopath spewing lies & making zero sense. They’ve been doing that for 31/2 yrs! Biden isn’t running out of hubris, he’s staving off a dictator! He probably won’t even live through till the end of his next term, because he actually works hard & delivers under tremendous pressure. Kamala would make an excellent president & the administration would carry on. Saving our country.
This is not a time to panic. It was a debate and not the election. At worst we can say it was a draw. We are looking at substance versus blatant lies. We have to remember the record of each.
Allen Lichtman who has predicted the winner of the presidential election for the last four decades says that debates have no influence on elections. He also says that any other candidate in place of Biden will definitely lose.
I also have been dealing with a horrible itching/burning rash, I watched the debate as dRump lied his way through, and I’m still voting blue. Good luck with your rash too!
Hey, your title along made me feel good. Thanks. So, why the hell is everyone getting their knickers in a twist? And even if Biden would've had a seizure or stroke last night, so what? Do we really have to even consider the other one (the fucking monster) at all? Everybody, get a fucking grip!
Many in America do not realize the misery of living under a strong dictator.
Dictators create poverty: insufficient food, poor housing, poor education, lack of medical care, lack of safe drinking water, lack of sanitation, and lack of personal means of transport, and friends are executed or ‘disappear’.
Russia and North Korean are prime examples. There are no counter examples.
Our democracy has created an amazing standard of living that is now threatened by those who have profited most.
Love you girl. Remember when Obama's first debate wasn't great and everyone was panicking? This is going to backfire on CNN and tRump. So many talking points that tRump spewed. Appalling.
Lots of missed opportunities last night but I'm following Gavin Newsom's take: we don't abandon our candidate just because he had a bad night. Joe Biden on his worst day (which might have been yesterday) is a thousand times better than convicted felon Trump at his best.

I agree. So he had a cold and felt like shit.
Colds are common, but they can really bum you out.
There is something off with all this hysteria.
I've had a really bad cold: it messes with your mind. But my friends didn't abandon me!
You want a convicted felon? Do you want Trump?
Or is it vanity? Don't want to be seen with
Biden?
Get off your high horses and suspend judgment.

Sue, it is maddening--how have folks not seen the double standard??? Don't they have ears and eyes?
Racism, misogyny and tax cuts are a hell of a drug
Great piece, Alicia. I'm about to write postcards to Wisconsin voters...we simply cant give up. We WONT give up. As Scott Dworkin says: ONWARD!
And...I hope you feel better every day! Thinking of you. 💙💙
Thank you so much, Susan! We got this if we keep our eye on the ball!

Scratch spmeone braying for Biden to drop out, find the Russian underneath.
I also have been dealing with a horrible itching/burning rash, I watched the debate as dRump lied his way through, and I’m still voting blue. Good luck with your rash too!
Thanks Ann, you too! I told my surgeon, and I am hoping they will not postpone my surgery again!
Which was more painful, the rash or the debate?
Well the rash won last week. The debate won last night.

My take--don't vote for a monster because the other dude happens to be old.
…and of course I’m voting blue!!!!
Strong dictators wreck economies.
Many in America do not realize the misery of living under a strong dictator.
Dictators create poverty: insufficient food, poor housing, poor education, lack of medical care, lack of safe drinking water, lack of sanitation, and lack of personal means of transport, and friends are executed or ‘disappear’.
Russia and North Korean are prime examples. There are no counter examples.
Our democracy has created an amazing standard of living that is now threatened by those who have profited most.
Just look at what the Supreme Court has done today
Love you girl. Remember when Obama's first debate wasn't great and everyone was panicking? This is going to backfire on CNN and tRump. So many talking points that tRump spewed. Appalling.
I am just hoping people do not fall for the noise or the hype.
It's infuriating how many doomsday addicts there are on our side.
And on their side no matter what that monster does they line up behind him.
Exactly that is why they keep beating is, devotion to cause and solidarity
They haven't beat us in the elections though. They've lost every election since Nov 8, 2016.
Lots of missed opportunities last night but I'm following Gavin Newsom's take: we don't abandon our candidate just because he had a bad night. Joe Biden on his worst day (which might have been yesterday) is a thousand times better than convicted felon Trump at his best.
This is why l like Gavin despite something of a used car salesman vibe lol
TOTAL used car salesman vibe! But he's selling the right stuff, so I'm in.

TYSM, Mitch.
very welcome . You are a very smart lady , Hugs and Peace to you and your family
The same to you and yours my friend.
Brilliant! Thanks Alicia! Trumpty may just do the dick thing yet. Maybe at his next hate festival.
And the MSM will hand wave it away while phreaking out about how Biden licks ice cream.
Thank you and YES!
Of COURSE I’m still voting!
Indeed, we all need to vote, and our lives depend on it- cuz it does!
That's why we need to STOP talking about it. If you pretend it never happened, it didn't. Just follow Trump's playbook!
