Freepers... a different universe...

I just dipped my toe in at my least-favorite RWNJ site.
Here's a comment posted there.

"I tuned in briefly to hear the debate. But there was no debate. Instead, there was a two-against-one pile on, Wallace and Biden vs. Trump. Biden was obviously hopped up on something and kept interrupting Trump during Trump's allotted time to speak, with no censure from Wallace, who did plenty of his own interrupting of Trump. Trump was never given, as far as I could see, any opportunity to make his reasoned, logical reply to questions--he was constantly either being walked on, interrupted, or taken to task by Wallace. It was a sleazy parody of a debate."

If there is analysis of the debate, that can be done frame by frame. Interruptions and who did them can be tallied.

I was a wreck by the time the sh*t show ended. My ears were hot and my heart rate elevated. It was very unnerving to see tRump in all of his bullying, authoritarian form doing his best to over power Biden. I thought Biden did ok considering what was going on. He kept his cool for the most part but it could not have been easy.

I know some tRump supporters may have thought he did well but let us hope those suburban women he needs were repulsed by his behavior and ran for the exit to get their ballots so they can vote for Biden. We need to be rid of the orange menace.
