Would have been a good day if I wasn't so anxious about debate.

(81,357 posts)Kamala has got this, my friend!
I'm sure as a prosecutor she has gone up against felons like tfg, but with their faculties in place. She will shred him.
Whatever the media says...we will know she won!

(81,357 posts)Consider Kamala shredding the slob a birthday gift.
I'll bet she is not nervous. She likely can't wait to get at him.
Enjoy!

(25,283 posts)I won't give you any advice about watching/not watching the debate. At 83, you know what you can handle and what will or won't ruin the day for you. Whatever you decide, enjoy the fact that you have lived 83 years, and here's to many more!
LittleGirl
(8,999 posts)Relax, take a chill pill/gummy and do some reading. A good distraction.
All this debate talk is exhausting. I shut it off. I dont care what pundits say before. I can make my own assessment. Ill be glued.
