Normie conservatives in my group chat think he’s getting trounced.
Everyone in the room is helping her. They can't even turn on Trumps mic ontime...
Normie hubby same.
I would agree. He has been entirely combative.
And refuses to stay on point.
Yes that’s my frustration with him tonight. He was supposed to crush. Instead he was just on defense. To be fair they kept attacking him but he should have been prepared and should have been able to turn the heat back at her.
He defended himself well but he did not get to go on the offensive as much as I had hoped.
Correct. He missed several slam dunks.
He openly said he had a good relationship with Putin. Why say that? They will feast on that.
"Immigrants are eating dogs and cats" why say this? I'm sure it's true. But it will become the new "Trump said drink bleach" headline.
I like that he isn't tactful like a polished fake politician. But this performance is unlikely to sway anyone on the fence to vote for him.
The "concept of a plan" for Obamacare was embarrassing. He also didn't really go into any of his plans at all. Just kept repeating the immigrant thing (Which is valid) but will definitely turn certain people off.
I doubt that Kamala won any significant amount of voters tonight. I do believe Trump lost a few fence sitters, maybe even a few basic conservatives.
The question is why? We've seen him destroy dynasties in debates. Bush's and Clinton's destroyed. This is a nobody, and he didn't hit her on anything of value.
Fracking? Why spend so much time on something the vast majority don't understand or care about?
Does he not want it? Was he instructed to lose by some threatening puppeteer? Is he just old and tired?
Downvote me all you want, that wasn't the Trump we wanted tonight. That was strange. Something fucked up is happening.
If you collect this with his other first debates, he always comes out like this. He did it with Hillary and with Sleepy the 'first time'. (where he did ok but the populace thought the challenger did a little better) The reason I'm perplexed is, what is the plan here? How are we this close to "not another 4 year election" and just going thru the motions of the same shit? There should be soul crushing MOABs happening by now on the Dems. They should be scared to even schedule a debate with all the shit falling on their head they'd have to defend by now. What is this?
