1st Presidential debate highlights

Vietnamese Give Trump a WIN!

The Vietnamese people, who are reportedly not white, declared their love for Donald J. Trump and hatred for Sleepy Joe after the debate ...

In Vietnam, interpreters on duty during the live broadcast skipped several talking points from both participants as they struggled to keep up with the flurry of rebuttals and interjections. But on Facebook, which has more than 60 million users in a country with a population of 100 million, love for Trump flowed uninterrupted.
In the comments of a post on the Vietnamese-language “People who love Donald J. Trump” Facebook page, which has 290,000 followers, some users accused moderator Wallace of Fox News of favouring Biden and interrupting Trump.

The Facebook page of a state television channel also saw an outpouring of support for Trump’s re-election.

“I hope Mr. Trump gets elected to destroy China because China is imperious towards other countries but no president has protested against [China] like Mr. Trump,” wrote a Facebook user by the name of Cuong Van.

On VnExpress, one of Vietnam’s most-read online newspapers, a poll asking its readers about the next US president had 80 per cent of respondents favouring Trump versus 20 per cent who wanted Biden to win.

Vietnamese: Reportedly not white

Vietnam's American running dogs doing a great job of demonstrating to everyone why it is so important to have a national government that is not a servile American pawn. The rot starts from the top and works its way down.

Thanks again to Grandpa Mao for throwing the Americans out of China and enabling it to pursue its own independent path to greatness, rather than being napalmed flat then turned into a McDonald's by American overlords.

I did enjoy this exchange:

American-style democracy once again proudly showing the world why it is the best model of government!

Donald Trump’s performance in the U.S. presidential debate Tuesday night was enough to make a person physically ill.

It was frightening. No one who watched could feel this was a normal, well-balanced human being, in control of his faculties and with the best interests of the country in mind. This was a man filled with anger, with bitterness, with hate, a man willing to burn down the country to avoid the humiliation of defeat and save himself from the status he so deeply fears, that of a loser, a sucker, a dope. Donald Trump doesn’t mind the prospect of an America in ashes, as long as he can still be boss of the remnants.

The man who threw a live, 90-minute tantrum on TV, filled with venom, self-pity and resentment, should be seeking therapy for whatever it is behind his overwhelming sense of aggrievement, not running for a second term as president. Maybe it stems from his childhood, his relationship with his father, his desperate need for attention, to be seen as a winner rather than the often-bankrupt huckster who somehow stumbled into the presidency and now seems overwhelmed by panic at the possibility he’ll lose it.

It's American government. How can anyone be surprised any more?

Trump: a bully who wouldn't bloody well shut up and filled the airwaves with lies. Biden: a stuttering, nice old guy.
I hear there was a TV debate. How did it go?

Pretty much. With a fox news moderator who lost his cool like 10 times trying to get the highly uneducated trump to fucking shut up when it's not his turn to speak. Seriously, I have never seen such an unpresentable low class piece of trash like that. Absolutely 0 decency, no respect for others nor himself. And there are still people who like that style... lol

The neutral and impartial moderator of the second debate, Steve Scully ...

(a) Once interned for Joe Biden,
(b) Before the 2016 election tweeted "No, not Trump! Not ever!"
(c) Worked for a year for Democratic Senator Ted Kennedy

At this rate, Jill Biden will be moderating the third debate.

At least a ventilator will shut him up.

POETIC JUSTICE! The American president is stricken with COVID-19. Trump served as a negative role model and encouraged anti-scientific behavior that what is the major cause of the United States having four times more American deaths per population than the rest of the world. That's 207,000 dead. 50,000, or 40,000, or 25,000 Deaths were inevitable, but more Americans died UNNECESSARILY due to Trump's ignorance of disputation of the science of medicine than American military died in World War I and the Korean War COMBINED! It is an outrage.
Our medical system is as good as South Korea's. However, by the end of September South Korea with a population of 40,000,000 had 399 deaths from Covid 19 and 61 new cases of Covid19 diagnosed on Sept. 26th. We now have more than 1,000 new cases per day. The USA with a population of 330,000,000 now has 207,000 deaths from Covid 19. How can you sugar coat THAT? How else can you explain THAT except as a monumental, epic fail by Trump? Trump,who wants to give us more of the same! What can he possibly, possibly do that can make up for that or has he ever done that can justify that enough to deserve anybody's vote?

Wut.

All of America is now focused on the president's well-being and hoping for the best. The savage media attacks have ended. Biden is being criticized for refusing to suspend his campaign. This is truly America at its best, rallying behind the Chief.

He was seen looking tired but in good spirits coming to Marine One for a check-up at Walter Reed. Even in his illness he didn't fail to salute the Marine sentries.

He also released a video on Twitter affirming that he is tired but, with the First Lady's aid, is recovering well.



Hail to the Chief! The Chief who in triumph advances!

[saxitoxin]

Good news; the vicious and wicked Joe Biden continues to buckle to the orders of his handlers and removed his savage attack ads against the ailing president. It was disgusting of Biden to attack a person who is ill and the American people know it and will remember it.

Joe Biden is taking all of his negative attack ads off the air in the wake of President Donald Trump’s coronavirus diagnosis. Biden and Democratic groups supporting him are heavily outspending Trump and his Republican backers in advertising reservations through the election, according to an Associated Press review of Advertising spending data compiled by Kantar/CMAG.

Biden: "Antifa is an idea, not an organization."

I've never seen an idea light so many fires
