Trump should have gotten into standup instead of politics. This dude will deny knowing his own son if necessary.

45 minutes in dog? Were we watching the same debate?!

 

[boris]

Everyone should have seen this coming. Trump has no platform.

 

[storm2006]

That was my whole problem with the debate. It allows people to say “Look at those two idiots! They were acting like little kids!” We all know Biden isn’t an idiot nor is he a petulant child but that’s how Donald Trump came out so it’s incredibly difficult not to have that rub off on you (pause). I’m not even defending Chris Wallace but he got caught up in the Trump **** storm too.

Classic adage truly sums it up “Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.”

I will say this..... if there was ever a candidate who might be so toxic even Mitch McConnell wouldn’t be able to get them on the SC with the combined support of both a Lame Senate majority and President.

It’s this woman.

 

[IATT]

these dudes already had a number of candidates in close races..

they could have been respectful to RBG and simply waited until the election

AND then even if they took Ls in both the presidency and the senate THEN put ole girl forward.. but nahhhhhhhh these dudes couldnt wait

and now you got the susan collins' of the world taking more heat

can only imagine the amount of people that going have a preexisting condition after this whole thing......

 

[whywesteppin]

BUT WHAT HAPPENED TO DUE PROCESS?

What you want to do is destroy this woman's life, hold this seat open, and hope you win in 2020.

This is the most unethical sham since Lady G started experimenting with make-up.

How could anyone have possibly foreseen he'd stomp your cake

Can't stand Greg Abbott.

He's already trying to take away the right of Harris County to select its own judges ever since 16 black women all won a while back. Now this? Not to mention undermining the local leaders trying to fight Covid. Hope he burns in the deepest parts of hell along with Trump.

It really must drive these clowns nuts that, eventually, Texas ain't gonna be theirs. We're a majority black and brown state and likely to keep getting darker. Hope they lose sleep over it at night. Can't wait to see what underhanded tricks they'll try to desperately cling on to power next.

Spoken like someone who will never have to worry about getting denied healthcare because of pre-existing conditions.

I think they know they are going to lose hence the urgency. You don’t do this if you are confident in maintaining the majority in the senate/presidency

to be fair, partisan elections for judges presents its own issues. there have been a lot of good judges voted out on both sides of the aisle because of their political affiliation and a lot of bad judges voted in or kept on the bench for way too long for the same reasons. campaign finance for judges that largely come from local lawyers is its own can of worms.

well trump did say he would run the country like one of his businesses....

My mistake. It was actually 19 black judges, not 16.

I'm just gonna let Wille D handle this lol.
