Yeah it's a little late for Trump to lower expectations.  He created his own trap. 

The tweet is from 2012. Though really, this is what Trump should’ve been saying as of late so Biden had higher expectations. But due to Trump’s rhetoric, Biden staying awake the entire debate assures a win for him

Anyone going to start a live debate thread? Or are we cool having it here?

I'm good here.  All related. 

related yes, but very specific of the campaign. I vote a separate debate thread. That way it can be easily refered to in #2 and 3...

If you open one, post the link here please.

I will be listening as I drive tonight via SXm app. wont be posting, but I suppose creating one shouldnt be an issue right now.

Sleepy Woke Joe Basement Biden ought to come out like a boxer, shuffle his feet, jab his arms, throw uppercuts, left jabs and overhead rights, dance around Team Trump Treason's podium, throw jabs and juke and jive, show off his fancy footwork, then sidle backwards to his podium, in an Ali-esque pose, one hand down low, the other across his chest like Ali in the rope-a-dope, get behind his podium and stare Team Trump Treason down for the whole time Team Trump Treason makes his opening statement.

Do you think anyone watching is going into this with an open mind?

I'm just watching for the laughs.

Our mail in ballots arrived today (which we will take to a drop off center).  My wife looked at them and said, "Maybe we should wait until after we watch the debates before we decide."  I totally cracked up at that!

Ah, didn't notice that.  Thanks. And yes, agreed.

Of course that ear piece thing was a baseless conspiracy theory. 

No surprise as to who first broke the story here.

Misinformation thrives on social media ahead of presidential debate

A baseless conspiracy theory that Joe Biden would wear an electronic device in his ear during the first presidential debate on Tuesday went viral on social media hours before the event.

Why it matters: The conspiracy originated on social media before appearing in a text message sent by President Trump’s re-election campaign to supporters. It was then regurgitated by media outlets like Fox News and New York Post, who cited the Trump campaign, throughout the day, according to NBC News.

• Kate Bedingfield, communications director for the Biden campaign, called the rumor “completely absurd” during a call with reporters on Tuesday.
• Biden, meanwhile, poked fun at the issueon social media.

How it worked: Baseless memes calling for a third party to inspect Biden's ears before the debate saturated Facebook Tuesday morning.

• One particular meme was simultaneously posted by multiple Facebook pages with names like “US Conservative” and “The Unhinged Left” and received thousands of shares, according to NBC.
• Fox News, New York Post and Breitbartthen published stories claiming that the Trump campaign wants the Biden campaign to allow a third party to inspect the ears of each debater for earpieces and that Biden had not yet agreed, citing the Trump campaign.
• The stories received tens of thousands of shares on Facebook and Twitter, despite being based on nothing more than anonymous accusations on social media and from the Trump campaign. White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnanyshared the rumor on Twitter, receiving tens of thousands of interactions on her own page.

Our thought bubble, via Axios' Ina Fried: It's just the latest example of how false information can easily gain traction on social media, spread unchecked and eventually become a subject of discussion in both partisan and mainstream media.

The big picture: The earpiece conspiracy was not the only example of viral misinformation spreading ahead of the the debate. On Tuesday morning, "Fox and Friends" allowed Rudy Giuliani, Trump's personal lawyer, to repeat a baseless accusation that Biden is taking "performance enhancing drugs" to help his debate performance.

• Trump has repeated the accusation multiple times over the last month without offering proof. The president even suggested that both men be drug tested before the debate, an offer Biden’s campaign rejected.

NYT has a good story today about this earpiece rumor being used for many cycles against Clinton, Obama, W, Biden etc. Unfounded, never any evidence. It is ridiculous that  anyone actually believes it, but we know how stupid half of the electorate is.

Biden is the winner by default. Trump’s presidency may have ended tonight. 

Ultimately, the United States of America has reached an all time low.

How much you wanna bet Trump trots our Tara Reade tomorrow night?

Tara who?

He may go after Bidens son and illegal China loans.

I would think this only helps Biden, who can simply reply,

”folks, if you have any doubts about my dealings with Ukraine, you can go online right now and look at my tax returns for the last 20 years.

lets demand trump does the same and make his tax returns available to you.”

I think you’d have to include a physical threat in your answer. He doesn’t respond to questions about hunter without including a threat.

Ok so where’s the links of video/audio of him threatening someone, unlike the Covidiot who is on tape stating he would just grope women..

Maybe I shouldn’t have said “threat” but gets angry and yells back. Would you not agree he doesn’t respond to questions about Hunter in anger? 

Didn’t say he shouldn’t. Not sure what that has to do with Trump and his comments.

Biden won that portion tonight. Trump came across like an inconsiderate asshole brining up Hunter while Biden was talking about Beau. Then Biden had a good moment talking about his drug addition. 

Trump fucked himself tonight.

I agree, even a simple “I was talking about Hunter and I thank Beau for his service” would have helped Trump look less inconsiderate.

That's not who Trump is. He's a loathsome, miserable individual incapable not only of empathy but understanding how to fake his way through such such situations.
