Trump Got Destroyed In CNN's Debate Watchers Poll

[EarlG]

I assume the last one doesn't mean 57% aren't going to vote for either, but that 57% did not have their minds changed about which candidate they were going to vote for based on the debate. Which means Biden did well with 32% compared to Trump's 11% there.

1. He choked.

On his own venom.

[Cha]

14. Excellent way to frame it.

[Vivienne235729]

20. He sure did!

[global1]

2. I Suspect That These Debate Percentages Will....

hold up for the election.

[SharonClark]

3. Loved that Biden went up 4% and

Trump went down 15% comparing pre and post debate.

[Grokenstein]

4. Murika maintains its roughly 30% levels of mindboggling idiocy.

[Awsi Dooger]

5. Next debate is not until October 15

Big help to Biden to win this debate since so many mail and early votes will be cast before the second debate

This 60/28 will be heard all over the place

Slight Democratic tilt to the sample but who cares?

32% said more likely to vote for Biden, only 11% for Trump

6. Joe needs to keep looking into the camera.

[proud patriot]

7. it's refreshing to see numbers below 30%

maybe his cult is less then the 40% he's held ..

8. After watching the so-called debate, I felt like I needed a shower.

And it wasn’t Biden’s fault. My loathing of tRump increased 100 fold and I already despised him with the heat of a thousand suns.

Seeing this poll definitely made me feel better. I hope it ruined that bastard’s night although he’ll just say it is fake news. Tough sh*t, asshat. Read ‘em and weep. If election night is like that, maybe we WILL know by 11 p.m. who won. No need to wait for the absentees to be counted To know for sure. How do you spell l-a-n-d-s-l-i-d-e???

[Bayard]

9. 57% said they would vote for neither???

[EarlG]

10. I don't think that's what it means

See what I wrote at the bottom of the OP.

My interpretation is that it’s not that 57% were more likely to vote for neither; rather, 57% were not more likely to vote for either. As in, the debate didn’t move them from the position they already held.

[Wounded Bear]

11. Pretty sure that number just means folks who didn't change their minds...nt

[MustLoveBeagles]

12. Not quite

I just think it means that 57% didn't have their minds changed watching the debate. I think most people have made up their minds already. Even with that Biden got a bigger boost from this.

[ProfessorGAC]

27. I Agree With You & Others

Actually I'm surprised that 43% of people were in a position to have their minds changed.
I also wonder if that whole question was asked of undecided voters. In which case it's 57% of 8%.
Confusing poll question.

[calimary]

13. Good stuff!

Thanks for the compilation, EarlG!

[ffr]

15. I don't know who prepped tRump or told him it was okay to take drugs

But his train came off the rails early. He was so amped up! It didn't come across as natural or normal. Crazed would be more like it. Not presidential, by any standard.

[Dopers_Greed]

16. Trump had to have been on coke

Compare this to his performance at recents rallies.

[ancianita]

17. All this and big bucks, too!

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

18. Good news. Very disappointing, though, to see the numbers on

Who seemed like the stronger leader? at B:55% T:43%. No other area had them so close.

It's very sad to see so many people mistaking assholery for strength, especially for strength in leadership.

[marlakay]

22. I think a lot of men think a leader is aggressive

My husband left the room screaming because he thought Joe should have yelled at him.

I have found myself yelling when someone else does just escalates things.

[demosincebirth]

25. We have to just accept that many people in this country are not decent.

I always thought that 90 percent of us had some sense of caring and decency. This coming election has really opened my eyes.

[Aussie105]

19. I got the impression that Trump

spent a lot of the debate time desperately struggling to find something that he could present as a real achievement, and not succeeding.

Sad indictment of wasted years really.

The personal attacks from Trump were expected, but Biden's response along the lines of . . . don't go there, because I could out do you there without trying - was a good way to cut that short.

As usual, Trump threw around numbers and 'facts' that were inaccurate, false, or debunked ages ago. Nothing new to shine his tarnished crown.

Biden kept his cool, and showed he isn't past it, as suggested by some.

21. Don't for a second think Trump did this on advise from his campaign.

He did this like he does EVERYTHING in his whole life. He picked to death the well meaning words and sentiments of others, eschewing all. Chose the path that best suited his mood, plagiarizing as required. Ingested mind and body altering drugs thus expanding his "comfort zone". Plowed forth, conquering and smiting, obsessing and controlling the villains of his imagination and the objects of his lust. Then later in a quiet moment, erasing the entire experience from recollection. His life's like that.

There's nothing and never has been anything remarkable about Donald except, perhaps, that he sustains his facade, his charade, so steadfastly. But that may be the only thing he has that he owns free of debt. Be interesting to see how well it holds up when released into general population.

[Peacetrain]

23. Yes they did!!!

[demosincebirth]

24. What did the have on Faux News" Anything similar?

[LakeArenal]

26. It boggles the mind that 15% changed their opinion on trump....

As Coach Dennis Green: We knew who they were when we got here.....

28. My favorite take I've seen

Said that in 2016, Trump was aggressive, but he was also making reasonable points and being funny. This debate he was just spouting dumb Libertarian talking points and being mean instead of funny. It was like your belligerent drunk uncle at Thanksgiving. I would pretty much agree with that.
