President Donald Trump ventured from the safe space of Fox News to a considerably more challenging town hall hosted by ABC News in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Tuesday night.
Looking forward to the debates now, if this was a foretaste. Two more weeks of cognitive decline and failure to factor in.
Sorry, I just couldn’t watch.
Sounds like it was classic Donnie deflection.
Can’t wait to see the comments from TPM’ers brave enough to watch.
I’d be happy to be wrong here, but I am absolutely convinced that he will not stand on a debate stage with Joe Biden. Not gonna happen.
One more reason FOX has arranged the “Mondays With The President” - free air time every week. Trump gets to reach his audience in a friendly fashion - an hour of air time - no cost to his strained campaign budget.
About time the MSM begins to lay this liar bare, live on-air.
I love how citizens had a chance to give Rump the heat
IIRC, the audience was supposed to be comprised of “uncommitted” voters (as if such a thing still exists). What was the general crowd reaction to Donnie’s implosion?
He should run* screaming, but his ego won’t let him.
I’m excited to see how Joe does in Scranton tomorrow. The juxtaposition should be a great preview of how things’ll go if/when the debates happen.
* (figuratively of course)
I wonder if it is too late for Biden to insist on real-time fact-checking during the debates?
ETA: Snark, yes, but also a serious question.
I’m sure we’ll be hearing all day that black is white…Ingraham rushed in last NIGHT to try and save him…embarrassing. My personal fav is Trump’s health plan…‘it’s all ready!’ After 10
years I’m sure we’ll be treated to ANOTHER Republican 4 page glossy in the coming weeks…
And lots of ramps on the stage.
OMG, the clips are crippling.?.Glad I did not take the time to watch…A preview of what is to come…stumbling, bumbling, failing and lying…world class EMBARRASSMENT.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! With that crazy pants performance I am guessing this will be the last town hall for Spanky anywhere other than Faux News between now and the election. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Didn’t George Stephanopolous have the COVID a few months ago? Hmm, they look like they’re standing very close and without masks there.
Baby Jesus, I never ask for much, and since I never got that puppy I wanted when I was 8…
Amen.
His apologists will insist that Joe screened the participants, had pre-planned questions, and used a teleprompter. They cannot admit that their guy is a shell of a human being.
Well, apparently, his supporters don’t think so. This will be their excuse for poor performance from now until the election:
It won’t, and maybe shouldn’t, happen, but I wonder what would happen during a debate if Biden very accurately and compassionately said “Mr. President, this isn’t a D-versus-R thing, but you’re just not up for this anymore”. Because putting his racism and general ineptitude aside, he’s not. He’s not W, a bad but functional president. He’s unfit.
(I suspect he’d spray enough spittle to drown us all, so maybe it’s good that it won’t happen)
