[Politics] Donald Trump, US President Elect 2025

[Greg Bobkin]

Country with shit loads of guns has reports of an attempted shooting.

Quelle surprise!

Next they'll be blaming the Haitian 'illegal' immigrants who are depriving them of eating their cats, dogs and pets.

 

[Pevenseagull]

....in the vicinity of the Trump International Golf course where Trump was getting in a round.

....doubt that.

 

[Triggaaar]

No winners, all losers. It was a farce.

Did you think it was fair?

Yes, Kamala won it easily.

Yes it was fair. The only farce was when Trump spoke.

They're eating the cats, they're eating the dogs! Which turned out to be complete BS.

 

[T.G]

True. Since being on here about 95% appear incapable of conducting a civil and good faith conversation so debate is pointless. I'll just post opinions, articles whatever and none of you get to make demands.

spouting unsubstantiated twaddle is not debate

I did that and when you realised you were losing, you just started posting insults.

So now I mock you.

Anybody who thinks that was a fair debate has an anti Trump agenda and is being disingenuous.

 

[Bob!]

Ok, I'll bite.

What was unfair about the debate?

The moderators were pro Harris, surely you must acknowledge that?

I thought it was unfair, as i posted a few days ago, the hosts let Trump bully them into continuing to speak after his time was up yet the only time Harris did it they made her be quiet. I'm sure I saw something which showed the last person allowed to speak on every topic was Trump

Not true.

Both candidates were able to talk. Trump was held to account for his lies, and we can examine those here. He was challenged about the cat/dog eating BS, and given evidence from the City Manager, but he argued the point claiming that he had seen it on TV (which is an embarrassment to start with), and his team now admit that they were creating it to try and highlight a general point.

So he was lying and it was pointed out. What's unfair about that?

And then the Trump camp claim that she lied too, because she said she grew up middle-class. Not only is that the most pathetic accusation of lying, but it wasn't even a lie.

The only single reason that the debate wasn't fair is that the opponents were not fairly matched, but that's the Republican's fault for selecting an old fool to run for president.

But what did they actually do that made it bias?

Did they fact check Harris?

Pro reality is not the same as pro Harris.

It's not the moderators fault if Trump lives in a deranged fantasy world.

 

[MTSeagulls]

uh? Odd response.

What do you doubt?

That shots were fired in the vicinity of the Trump International Golf course? Or that Trump was getting in a round of golf there at the time?

It’s been plastered all over the news for the past several hours. I’m just relaying what’s being reported.

I thought it was a joke play on words as in 'getting in a round (of drinks)'

Clueless elites wrong about Trump-Harris debate, and now we know why

Trump’s base is 48 percent of Americans who feel there is a corrupt establishment trying to control their lives. The spectacle of ABC News confirmed everything they already believed.

Well I agree it was a farce in so much that it was a sanitised ’debate’ with the candidates unable to address each other directly and with their mics muted and timed responses. It wasn’t so much a debate as 90mins of each candidate having the opportunity to provide soundbite sized summaries of their policies/thoughts on a set number of carefully selected questions.

Was it fair?

No, absolutely not.

One the one hand you had an aging, misogynistic and ill-informed narcissist who couldn’t help using most of his allotted time obsessing about the border, Haitians eating cats and dogs and ‘murdering babies’ up until 9 mnths old. On the other, pitted against him, you had a smart, sharp-witted, much younger, extremely well-informed candidate with a strong legal background, used to years of constructing forensic arguments.

It wasn’t a fair fight at all.

Trump brought a knife to a gunfight.

Did they fact check Harris?

There was no need to - Harris didn’t bang on about Haitians eating people’s pets or babies being murdered at 9 months.

Absolutely barking mad. Watched the whole thing in the States. It's like everyone accusing the BBC of being bias - half accuse them of being to the right the other half to the left which basically means they are pretty much nailing it. As a sane person if I were moderating I would have interjected about every 10 words Trump uttered as he is incapable of telling the truth but they let him witter on and only fact checked him when he became so ridiculous that only a small child would still be believing him.

No .... that he was getting a round in.

 

[lasvegan]

Sorry, I responded to the wrong post.

That was meant for

Not sure why you are quoting a fox news link to a post I made about the apparent ‘attempted assassination’ -

Do you think I am being a ‘clueless elite’ for posting that shots were fired in the vicinity of the Trump Int Golf course by secret service agents?

quoted the wrong post, sorry Zeb…
