to actually watch the shitstain speak, when “debating” Biden and getting his ass handed to him. I wanna see him shrivel before an onslaught of coherence, logic and truth - in a forum from which he can’t just turn and walk away from. Can’t fuckin wait.

Anything significant will be reported, and listening to Trump is not good for my mental or physical heath.

at my TV. I have the deepest respect for Biden and if I don't watch I will donate Joe a nice donation.

I just can't stand listening to an Adderall addict.

After he gets his ass kicked he'll maybe cancel the other two because he was treated so " unfairly".

For me, the only reason to watch a debate is if I needed to make a choice between the two candidates. Since there is literally nothing Trump could say or promise to make me vote for him, I don't need to watch it. It will be endlessly covered and dissected by the media, so I can hit the high points, but that orange homunculus has taken up enough of my mental real estate for the last four years.

I have 110% confidence in Joe Biden, he is an experienced politician and has been at this game his whole life. And yet, I get sweaty thinking about it.

Seeing and hearing could be fatal..or I may wish it was. I like watching the debates here. Just read the comments,...don't miss a beat, and feel no worse for the wear.

I'll be running my own malarkey drinking card - it will be a taller, slimmer man with his own hair and no make up versus a vulgar, short-fingered shitshowman.

One knows the Constitution and the other will make up shit as he attempts to keep up.
It will be hilarious. I don't think the Con will show up for the second one/
