I thought he was demented and senile. When did he become a professional debater?

On Biden tonight—
1He’s a professional debater – it’s the closest thing he’s ever had to a real job.
2. This is a Biden’s 3rd time running for President.
3Whatever he does, the press will declare him the winner

They are all really running scared over how badly Trump’s going to do.

I fully expect Trump to, in the middle of the debate, suddenly announce he has “An Important Phone Call to take” and walk off the stage, never to return. He will go immediately to his limo, and then to AF1 to go back to one of his golf courses hotels.
Biden will smile, and turn to Chris Wallace and say, calmly: “Now, where were we? Please continue Chris.”

Trump’s press people, caught completely off guard, will FRANTICALLY cover for him claiming it was of “International Importance” and “NATIONAL SECURITY CALL!!!” and that “See! THAT is what being PRESIDENTIAL is all about!”
Tomorrow, the WH will tell everyone that “Trump is announcing a Possible War with Iran!” due to the imaginary Phone Call just to cover his ample ass.

32% of the country will back Trump (no matter what.)
The rest of the country will see what it really was, and swing to Joe.

No more debates will happen as Trump will blast Chris Wallace and probably get him Fired from FOX.

@truth is going to be shut down within the first thirty minutes of the debate.

Will have hit twitter’s spam filters for too many posts too quickly.

Fantastic! Vote him out ,indeed!

I’ll still be voting on election day. I reckon i’ll be part of the election day turnout that negates the need to wait until all the mail-in ballots are counted. He’ll never have a lead of any kind in this election, even just a temporary lead. The Dotard’s goin’ down! HARD!

Yes, Stuart Stevens’ book re: the GOP “It was all a Lie” and Mary Trump’s book.

OT, but important-

I’ve been picking up my prescriptions via car from my local Wegmans pharmacy since the virus.

It turns out that Wegmans in several states are offering drive-through community flu vaccination events. Although Maryland isn’t on their list, I called and asked the Pharmacist if I could arrange for a shot when I next picked up my prescriptions. In a nutshell - yes, and I received my shot earlier today.

It doesn’t hurt to call and ask if your pharmacy would consider offering the same service. I was able to complete most of the paperwork over the phone, which made things much easier. At the car I just signed the form and rolled up my sleeve.

I’m 100% good with that. As long as the golf course hotel is in Siberia.

Big snaffu in my part of Brooklyn. Print shop that prepared and mailed the ballots sent them to wrong addresses. I got someone else’s myself.

Does anybody know, if you have requested a ballot and are down as having been sent one, is it possible to simply go vote because that’s what I’m thinking of doing, but don’t know now if I can. Even though I didn’t get a usable ballot.

I don’t think anyone has decided on a drinking word that won’t leave us wasted.

Some oldie but goodies: “cupboard was bare” “military was depleted”

Imagine you're working for a campaign, and it's just been revealed that your candidate spent $70,000 on hair styling for his reality TV show, and you decide to blast his opponent as an "out of touch elitist" for spending … $13 on ice cream.

Imagine being *that* bad at your job. https://t.co/ouQJYPc4aB
