Yep, typical Trump, all bravado, lies and distractions. And I agree that his tactics did fail him, he seemed to me to be on the defensive more than Biden was. Trump's afraid to allow people to speak the truth because hearing something other than the required "if you want to keep your job" praise he hears from his sycophant's, is something that he can't handle. And so he will cut you off, speak over you and try to distract from the truth that is being spoken.

You didn't appreciate Trump fact checking Biden live?

Let's say 300,000 have died from Covid by the time of the election and the pop. of the U.S. is 330 million which means I person out of 1100 have died. 1100 would equate to about 300 families, so out of every 300 families one family is missing a person. Nowhere near enough to affect the election results.
Ya like only 48,000 American died in Vietnam and that's why it was never an election issue

Conveniently missing the the "yes" after Wallace asked if he condemns white supremacy and the "stand back" portion immediately before the stand bye you are ranting about.
Just like you say of Trump your reaction is predictable


Just to be clear, Trump at no time used the word yes. Here it is transcribed:

Wallace: "You have repeatedly criticized the vice president for not specifically calling out Antifa and other left wing (Trump says here, that's right) extremist groups. But are you willing tonight to condemn white supremacists and militia groups (Trump says here, sure) and to say that they need to stand down and not add to the violence in a number of these cities as we saw in Kenosha and as we’ve seen in Portland."

Trump: Sure, I’m willing to do that.

Wallace: Are you prepared specifically...

Biden: Do it.

Wallace: Go ahead sir.

Trump: I would say, I would say almost everything I see is from the left wing not from the right wing.

Wallace: But what are you, what are you gonna, what are you sayin...

Trump: I’m willing to do anything. I want to see peace.

Wallace: Well then do it sir.

Biden: Say it, do it, say it.

Trump: You wanna call 'em, what do you want to call 'em? Give me a name, give me a name, go ahead, wha... who would you like me to condemn. Who?

Wallace: White supremacists and right, white supremacists and right-wing militia.

Biden: The Proud Boys.

Trump: Proud Boys? Stand back and stand by. But I’ll tell you what, I'll tell you what, somebody’s got to do something about Antifa and the left because this is not a right wing problem this is a left wing
.

So clearly Trump never used the word yes, he used the word sure. Same thing? Maybe, but he never said the word yes which for some is more definitive. And Wallace asked him specifically if he would say that they (the Proud Boys) need to stand down, and to not add to the violence and Trump did not do either. Instead, in addressing the the Proud Boys, he simply stated that they stand back and stand by.

Just to be clear.

In what world does "stand by" mean anything but "hold yourself ready for action at a moment's notice?"

Oh, right. MAGA!land.

Never mind.
And then there was : "this will end bally"...........( if he loses)

The raw, real and horrible Trump was on display for the wold to see. His stated tactic of dominate, dominate no mater HOW one dominates.........was in full display. No substance.......just inflammatory BS.

It was pitiful to watch. The other sad thing is that his crazy conduct will be material for lots more books.........and that will stroke his over inflated ego.

Obama/Biden Administration set the America public up well in the event of a Worldwide pandemic. Then Trump gets in, and cuts funding to the program. The results speak for themselves.
Blaming Biden for this is like what happened during the Black Plague.
Biden knew, Faucci knew but why didnt you knew back in October of last year?

Did Biden give a direct no over Hunter's Burisma cash?
Look both ways before crossing.
Live by that rule.


A direct no? No, he did stress that his son did nothing wrong related to Burisma. I have stated here before and I'll state again that if Hunter Biden or Joe Biden were involved in any way in illegal activities, that they should be held to account. They are no more above the law than anyone else.

And thank you, but I have no want nor need for your unsolicited advice.

Trump's fear dominated the first debate. He knows he's losing and has no idea how to stop it.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/20...st-debate-biden-n1241543?cid=eml_nbn_20200930

Well, he was behaving from a primal level. ( primitive behavior) The root of rage is fear..........and he has plenty of both........but over compensates. by crating a fictional world for himself based on lies/ fabrications. In reality he is a very weak/inadequate person , with little knowledge many insecurities.........and shrouded with defense mechanisms His mental functions are deteriorating and that makes him even more terrified........... and he ends up confabulating .......(psychological) His projection is to a paranoid degree. Unstable.........and that is what he showed last night. All over the map with lots of aggression and forceful domination as he has nothing else. He misinterprets questions or ignores them completely. He is potentially DANGEROUS. The US democracy is at stake. The US election used to be the prominent feature of a fair and Democratic republic. He is destroying it with his fabrications .
