He is but I also doubt trump has any meaningful concept of “500” dollars. He could very well think that’s cheap for insulin.

This whole thread as an explainer is… just… bizarre.
I mean, I kinda knew what they were about but still…

Sad and on-brand on so many levels.

I wonder how many would make it through actual bootcamp.

That’s like almost two tax payments for him.

aka “his team.”

I remember all of this “he is losing, he’s so unhinged, what he just said/did will never be forgiven” rhetoric in 2015-2016. He had zero chance of winning. The only person (or certainly the only well known person on the political left) who predicted his win was Michael Moore.

He’s not, this time, is he?

And I have read some stories that Trump’s team has been putting on the pretty face, but behind the scenes are embarrassed and trying to shape his behavior for the next one.

Was this sarcasm, and I missed the airquotes/winking? Because last I checked, Trump’s the President.

His team should demand 2 things if there is even going to be a next debate:

  1. The participant who is not responding directly to a question has their mic cut pre-emptively or when their time runs out;
  2. Secret Service is on standby with tranc darts ready to take down either participant if one leaves his podium.

Is this for real? Has he finally confused his base or was it tweeted sarcastically?

Thank god.

Reading this, it almost seems as though this first debate was designed to be a shitshow.

Muting mics was needed 4 years ago.

Hours after United States President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden tore strips off each other before a horrified global television audience,

As Trump and Biden fought for air time, talking over the top of each other and the moderator,

Yes, Joe Biden not being civil with Chris Wallace, that’s what was horrifying…

Not even the Pope wants to be involved in dRumph’s shenanigans.

Well, yeah, no surprise. Even if you disagree with Pope Francis on a lot of things, it’s clear that he’s a very intelligent man who is deeply and sincerely religious. He does not want Trump and the corrupt scum coalesced around him using either him or the Catholic Church as props.

There have been stories almost every day on BB since 2016 that would fit that description.

That’s a deflection. It is all over the MSM.
