First presidential debate between Trump and Biden
Date: Tuesday, Sept. 29
Moderator: Chris Wallace, anchor at Fox News Sunday
Location: Case Western Reserve University and Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio
Time: 9:00 p.m-10:30 p.m. EDT, without commercial breaks
Format: There will be six segments of approximately 15 minutes each on major topics. Wallace will open each segment with a question, and Trump and Biden will each have two minutes to respond. After that, Trump and Biden can respond to each other, while Wallace will balance time between the two for the remaining discussion time about the topic.
Six planned topics for the debate, chosen by Wallace, were revealed on Tuesday. The topics are subject to change and will not necessarily be brought up in the following order: the Trump and Biden records, the Supreme Court, COVID-19, the economy, race and violence in American cities, and the integrity of the election.
So what do we see happening here?
Will the moderators this year pull a The Complete And Utter Shyster and try and take the spotlight for themselves with constant endless fact checking against the candidates?
Will Biden perform better than he did against Sanders, where he was systematically torn apart on his record?
Will Trump be able to go more than 5 minutes without saying something hopelessly stupid?
Will either of them be able to form a coherent sentence?
Is there really any point when the Trumpsters will just say he's the best regardless of his performance tonight?
Is there really any point when the Biden voters will just say he's the best regardless of his performance tonight?
How many references to Nazi Germany will Biden make?
How many references to Communism will Trump make?
Over/Under on how many times Russia and/or China will be blamed for something?
All of this AND MORE! (this is going to be depressing)
