I thought it was a muscle spasm too. In the last 10 minutes Trump was really gripping the podium hard with his right hand. I thought it was fatigue, but it might also have been to keep it from twitching.

Iāve got some experience facilitating therapeutic community groups of fifty of more men and women where the people are allowed to say anything as long as they stay in their seat. These things can last hours. Trump would have fit right in. Heād would have had his emotional ass kicked in about two minutes though.
Chris Wallace does not belong on that stage, however. Not thug enough.

I heard him trying. He said under Trumpās yelling āheās the one who has defunded the policeā¦ā

āI was really hoping for the debate that I think America wanted to see, which was a serious exchange of views,ā Wallace said.
And here I thought he knew Trump. Anyone who does would never expect such a thing.

My opinion is that Chris Wallace did very well. I think that had he cut off Trump earlier or more often it would have been bad for everyone. The other side would scream MSM hit job. Our side would have said that Wallace stepped in to assist and protect Trump. The way it turned out the yelling, poor answers and interruptions are all on Trump.
Trump and his supporters will play the victim card if given an excuse to do so. Wallace did not give them many slivers to use as excuses.

Their hug was one of the biggest non-makeout āmakeoutā moments a couple of their age could get away with on TV.

It was brown. The lighting was dim. His vision is not so good.

To say he was expecting āa serious exchange of viewā with Trump on the stage is either the essence of gaslighting or pure ignorance.
Thereās nothing in between.

Thanks. Iāve looked at neither the reporting or the hagiography on the man: I find him disturbing enough that I try to limit my exposure to contemporary accounts.
This fits with his sadism and buoys the hypothesis thatās itās the primary motive in much of his behavior.

I thought so as well. It really made a light go on for me and I read Mary Trumpās book. That was the only one I was really interested in and it was worth it. But even that left me thinking that something was still not getting there and when I read the story on Rawstory about this author and Trumpās deliberate malice, it really did come together.

A friend who survived an abusive marriage said exactly that.
Reporting is that the abusers campaign and the abuser are against changes. Biden should announce that heās fine with that, as long as they donāt use podiums and provide barstool height stools for the candidates. Then he should avoid calling him names, but employ āthere you go againā as a response. (Was that Reaganās line?)
