Official 2020 Presidential Debate Thread

[BuffNiag]

She's not wrong.

Pelosi doubles down that Biden shouldn't debate Trump: 'Why bother?'

Asked during an interview on "Morning on CBS" whether she still believed the former vice president should skip the three scheduled debates, Pelosi said: "Oh, I do."

Don't you dare! I have cleared the next day's calendar and stocked up my bar for this shitshow. It's gonna be one for the ages.

Don't worry Biden will "win" the debates. Anytime it's looking bad for poor Joe (whole time) the mods will step in berate trump for being mean and unfair or turn off his mic.

TBH, that is Trumps biggest risk. Being “cruel” or “mean.” He kept it in check pretty well with Hillary. Hopefully he does the same thing again.

 

[BerettaGuy]

Biden has a history of bullying and vulgarity when asked embarrassing questions.

 

[Chevusa]

I just got invited to a debate party Tuesday. This is going to be fun.

I just wish "Mean" Gene Okerlund was still around to call the show.

Maybe get him, John Madden, and Bob Uecker in a booth.

His best bet is to needle Biden so that he loses his composure.

Biden does not do well with accusations or criticism and tends get stupider the more angry he gets.

"You'd be in jail" was one of the best lines of the 2016 debates.

If Trump can pull another like that out of somewhere there's good odds Biden will challenge him to a push up contest or a boxing match in the parking lot or something equally insane.

 

[Rocpo]

Maybe just bring up the investigation into little Biden's excursions in Ukraine and China. Watch Unhinged Joe go and shove his foot in his mouth.

what are we drinking on .. how many times he says "you know" "the thing" or the big one and you guzzle all you have when he says
"I don't work for you" ... LOL .

And when he says 'come on man' you drink everything and make another liquor run right then and there.

Add “think about it” and “period” to the list. Also whenever he touches his right ear to adjust earphone.

 

[BerettaGuy]

Every game needs rules: Line up five drinks of your choice. Must take a drink every time Biden says "Come on man" "Look", Let me make this clear", "You're full of shit", or "just buy a shotgun". If he says something unintelligible, you have to guzzle everything and start over again. (This way it may make sense) Don't forget to take the following day off. Every time Trump says jail or prison take a drink. Word of advice, don't use your top-shelf spirits. You could regret it. Any other trigger words?

More Trigger words to trigger a drink.

First debate results are in. CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, and NBC all report that Biden won. Biden was "on fire" and never missed a beat. No matter how many times Trump shouted his lies Biden remained cool and collected as he responded with sharp, well-stated, facts to reinforce his positions against his boisterous opponent. Biden showed real presidential prowess as he dominated the debate from start to finish. Biden handed Trump a defeat from which he cannot recover.

I am sure the scripts are already written. It wouldn't even surprise me to hear some of the "reactions" had already been recorded.

 

[Chevusa]

It's still possible Biden doesn't show up.

If he does I wonder if he passes out.

I wonder if they will have them stranding at podiums or if they got stools to allow Biden to sit and rest. No way he can stand there for 90 minutes.

I cannot wait to see Sleepy Joe get mad and lose his temper. He will start tripping over his words and resort to the same 3 or 4 phrases he uses when mad or confused.

I wonder how many sentences will be started and not finished.

I love how Trump said that Joe should win because he's been doing this for 47 years and he's only been doing it for 4 years. Brilliant. This way everyone's expectations for Joe aren't rock bottom.

This will be great!

Debate Preview

No handshakes between Biden and Trump at first debate

The shaking of hands between the candidates and the moderator – it’s a longstanding tradition at presidential debates. But amid the coronavirus pandemic, that tradition has been thrown out the window due to COVID-19 considerations.

www.foxnews.com

I was pleased to read that there will be a small audience in attendance.

 

[Bigfoot]

I really didn't think that this was going to go down.

I'm still not so sure it will, I'll believe it when the debate actually starts.

 

[Bigfoot]

Nobody should set their expectations to low. Creepy Joe has been around the political game for a long time and may pull off a decent debate. With the help of medication of course.

I hope that President Trump gets Creepy Joe so flustered.
That Joe takes a Jerry Nadler in his pants.

Chris Wallace will ask Creepy Joe, did you just shit your pants?
And President Trump will say, yeah he did, bigly.

 

[BuffNiag]

Debate goes until 10:30. Something tells me that’s like two hours past Joe’s bedtime. Should be interesting.

I just wish "Mean" Gene Okerlund was still around to call the show.

Maybe get him, John Madden, and Bob Uecker in a booth.

I have been expecting Trump to hit Pence over the head with a folding chair and run over and high five Pelosi for a long time.

 

[Chevusa]

Today is the day. It’s gonna be fun.

 

[Steal2B]

 

[masterswimmer]

I'm ready!
Awwww who am I kidding? That ain't enough popcorn.

 

[Blimey]

Biden does have substantial cognitive decline, but despite that it would not surprise me if he makes few mistakes tonight. What I'm saying is don't go in expecting he'll spend every minute fumbling as if mid-stroke.

I think Trump should do his best (He is incapable, but we can hope) of staying above board, very professional and presidential. It's possible to be come across as dominating while also being classy and in control. Don't let Biden get under his skin.
