Good lord all trump does is do “this guy over here…” bs and drags up every right wing meme piece of “fact”, and they’re all garbage.

I really wish Americans weren't ignorant enough to fall for someone who looks better on TV even though they're a convicted felon who tried to undermine and overthrow a free and fair election, but history tells me otherwise.

I seriously hope there are high level discussions within the Democratic party and with Biden about putting someone else forward.

FUCK YOU.

Trump still doesn't understand tariffs.

We Iranians are going to get Pezeshkian and you Americans are going to get Trump

FUN 4 YEARS COMING BOYS

Good news. Biden might be getting angry enough to go super Saiyan. Won't be good for the talking points but those are out the window with the endless lies anyway.

This just makes me so uncomfortable. Trump isn't going to win this election, Biden is going to lose it.

Does Biden sound sick to anybody else? Like he has a sore throat?

Sooooooo... if this is what has finally shaken your faith in American bourgeoisie democracy, good news (sorta)! Alternatives exist, although the struggle to achieve them will be long and arduous. Our current system of propping up billionaire-approved octogenarians to give ~~our stolen wealth~~ tax breaks and investment incentives to defense contractors, cops, and landlords exists very explicitly to preserve a system of private property that keeps you poor and desperate.

The alternative to this is to build class consciousness and working class power in order to contest this awful system and put political and economic power directly in the hands of the working class before our impending environmental collapse. Join an organization that exists locally that's building that working class power. Seriously, don't even get caught up on which -ism best fits you, just join whatever exists locally that you can contribute to. Democratic Socialists of America, the Party for Socialism and Liberation, Socialist Alternative, the Industrial Workers of the World, Food Not Bombs, even a small community mutual aide network that supports a few of your unhoused neighbors.

This debate should be your wake-up call. The state is a fuck and you're just a sacrificial pawn in a system designed to funnel wealth upwards. It's a big club and you ain't in it.

I’m curious to see how quickly the Dems will get a new candidate.

Biden has to bring up Trump killing the border bill for political reasons. That should have been a top 3 talking point.

They lowered expectations for Trump way too much.

And if Biden doesn’t get it together immediately, it’s time to consider a new candidate. This is a disaster so far.

Let’s say Biden doesn’t make it to the election. Who would the democrats put forward? Harris?

This abortion response started good... and then he just lost it. My god he's so fucking old.

It is just Bullshit bullshit bullshit out of Trump. It's fucking wild.

So Trump's going to be reelected. I don't even know if I want to keep watching this this is just sad

Ouch. That last one hurt. Biden started strong on that answer, but lost the thread.

I'm kind of reminded of that West Wing episode, where Leo McGarry keeps leaking stories about how bad he's going to be. That seem to be exactly what Trump did this last week or two. Or the people around Trump probably. Cuz as much as he's lying piece of shit he's staying on his message, which admittedly I wasn't sure he could do. On the other hand Joe Biden is a train wreck. This is extremely demoralizing.
