Everyone Was A Loser From Tuesday's Debate

Boyd Matheson, Deseret News: Tuesday’s debate had no winner — just 320 million losers 

If we decide to reject what has become accepted behavior, we will eliminate all that wasn’t on Tuesday night. 

Many have tried to describe the first presidential debate between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden. Adjectives have failed, pejoratives have prevailed and analysis has fallen tragically short of capturing what happened Tuesday night. Sometimes when it becomes impossible to describe what something is, it is easier to outline what it is not. 

During and after the debate, my text messages lit up with comments and questions from colleagues, friends and sources around the country. Beyond the easy “hot mess,” “dumpster fire” and “train wreck,” most of the people I spoke with didn’t know what to say.

WNU Editor: I am going to venture a prediction. No one will be talking about this debate by the end of this week.

Everyone was not a loser in last night's debate.

Candy Crowley was the biggest winner. She is no longer the worst debater moderator.

Hugh Hewitt is a lawyer and a talk show host. It is not as well paid as VP, where you can land contracts for your son and brother.

One thing that is not widely being discussed, and should, is that Joe Biden was obviously prepared for every question--he was given the questions in advance.

Donna Brazil gave Hillary the questions ahead of the 2016 debates. It is a Democrat family tradition.

You don't think that some Fox news employee or Biden campaign staffer hacked Wallace's computer do you? I don't. I think Mike Wallace's son emailed them to the Biden campaign.

Donna Brazile Regrets Sharing Debate Questions With Hillary Clinton

- SF GATE

' The scandal was revealed after WikiLeaks published thousands of emails belonging to Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta. But according to Breitbart.com, in her Brazile said in her letter that “the media narrative” about her being in cahoots with the Clinton campaign “played out just as the Russians had hoped. " '

We only know it, because she was caught red handed. But she said Russia so all is forgiven and now she makes more $$$ than ever before.

Wallace will get the Order of Lenin from Saint Hillary herself for providing the debate questions to Joe.

Agreed @Donna Brazil
She's such a Democrat shrill operator. The sad thing is that Fox News has her on sometimes now on eg the five. I always skip here parts.. she literally undermined democracy and they still pay her to come on and spread more lies and mischief. Does it ever end for these ghouls who make a mockery of our rights?

It will not end until the corrupt Democrats and their masters who give them orders are exposed and disenfranchised. This will not occur until the corrupt media is reined in, which will likely never happen because of the 2nd Amendment.

Should've figured that one out long ago.

Here people are using philosophy, economics and science, while the Dummycrats are using monkey politics and buying people off. Spme cheaper than others.

As the dust settled in Cleveland and the Trump campaign claimed victory over a “weak” performance by former Vice President Joe Biden, others involved in his reelection effort were less convinced the president did himself any favors. If anything, they said, he might have done more harm than good.

Indeed, the leading complaint from some of Trump’s top allies after the opening debate was not the perceived unfairness of moderator Chris Wallace — though they took repeated issues with the Fox News anchor’s performance — or Biden's evasive answer to a question related to the Supreme Court, but the president’s own demeanor. Overcome with scorn for Biden, Trump jabbed and jeered his way through the night without ever giving his opponent a chance to self-implode. The strategy confounded supporters who had giddily approached the first debate thinking it would be a prime opportunity for voters to see the 77-year-old Democratic presidential nominee stumble through answers with rambling responses and cringe-worthy gaffes.

One Trump adviser had flashbacks to the O.J. Simpson trial, likening Trump to the football legend’s domineering defense attorney Barry Scheck and Biden to frazzled prosecutor Marcia Clark. But while Scheck may have “brilliantly” saved his client with merciless cross-examinations, the adviser said Trump’s attempts to corner Biden only further imperiled his unstable campaign.

Another person involved with the president’s campaign said they couldn’t blame anyone who turned the TV off halfway through the debate: “The few independents that we need, I imagine some of them just flipped the channel after the first hour.”

Others were more blunt.

“It was really frustrating to watch,” said Dallas investor Doug Deason, a GOP megadonor and Trump supporter. “He’s the president of the United States. He should have not let it get out of hand like it did and instead he led it.”

Trump was facing Biden (a near broke down jalopy), Mike Wallace (T-34; a disinterested observer providing flanking fire for Biden), and whoever was behind Biden's ear piece ( a artillery batter).

Trump can out think or bull his way through Biden. Trump cannot out thing a group of people who are structured and in a concealed position, where they can think comfortably. Also Biden was on drugs. He is not likely to panic as much.


Trump has to change tactics and let UAV Biden crash.
