Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Its fine to say it wasnt his best preformance or it was a disappointing preformance. Its fine to want him to step down and let Harris run.
Its not fine judge a debate between presidential candidates off who appears more confident. If you find confidently stating a lie to be convincing then you're cooked.
Also there is no argument that trump was more coherent that night. He couldn't answer a single question on topic and none of his responses even made logical sense Compared to biden who answered every question on topic with an in depth relevant logical reply. A lot of people relive the debate via foxnews clips but thr context behind the clips isnt bad. The "we finally beat Medicare" clip should not be considered an own to anyone over 12.
You realize pointing out how bad Trump was makes Biden even worse right? The fact random non sequitur appeared competent next to Biden was massive problem.
No I dont realise. Can you explain?
Not how world works as right as you may be. Biden, aside from that poor performance (key word) , was an uninspiring candidate that fumbled politically along the way before this debate, and this was the final straw for many people. Politics isn't as simple as a logical deduction.
That's without touching on the good things he did nobody heard about, economically speaking, and the bad things he did a sizable amount of people knew about, that being the failure to uphold international law because of a double standard held for "our greatest ally"
