    we can't really bothsides the performances last night.

    trump imploded. biden was on the air longer and even stayed afterward to answer questions from the audience. trump would never, ever do that. there is no money or ratings in it.
    “Bothsides” is a word now? A verb?

    I’m saying what I thought about the portions I saw. The inferences some of you make..ridiculous 🙄
    yes it is a verb. 

    it is when people say "ugh both sides are terrible" when there is a clear, glaring difference between the two sides. one is clearly better than the other. one clearly has a better and more positive vision than the other. one is clearly less of an asshole than the other.

    i am not attacking you. i am not inferring anything. just saying that there is a clear difference in approach, temprement, and delivery of the message between the two candidates. 
    It’s funny though; I never mentioned Trump at all. The moderator, semblances of honesty, yes. So this “bothsides “ thing is moot as far as I’m concerned.

    You said both sides are full of shit.
    This comment certainly should be viewed as a fact by everyone -- perhaps except other politicians.
    I am as annoyed by the both sides folks as anyone...but this is not a both sides type of statement.

    This was not an example of someone trying to play off something shitty Trump did by calling out something Biden did.

    Lighten the fuck up, Francis-es.

    this is one of the reasons I've always laughed when republicans/conservatives occasionally poke their heads in here and claim we're in an echo chamber. we argue enough amongst ourselves without them. i don't see this as an echo chamber at all.

    Maybe at that time it wasn't revealed yet that he had one leg shorter than the other?  Or maybe he had down feather lining in them due to Letterman keeping the Ed Sullivan theater to damned cold?

    I do, often. Just narrowed down what you argue about because the echo chamber is too small! ;)

    Every accusation is a projection, too.  It’s not like there aren’t right-wing echo chambers.
