Hey TW!

Uncle joe dosen’ look good.
twilson117
15 hours ago
Nope, Joe is tanking.
AdLib15 hours ago
Yeah he looks tired not the look he needs.
twilson117
15 hours ago
He looks tired and he’s had a brain fart already.
AdLib15 hours ago
Yeah what the press will run with later tonight unless he picks up. Having a bit of trouble with will get back in a min.,
twilson117
15 hours ago
He’s hurting himself. Trump is still sounding nuts but Biden is sounding weak. I can already see the op-eds saying he should step aside.
AdLib15 hours ago
He did a bit better on abortion but still shaky.
AdLib14 hours ago
Hey PPO! You watching?
AdLib14 hours ago

Should be available online too. BTW, Biden is looking shaky.
AdLib14 hours ago
Yes. I am worried he isn’t kicking the crap out of youknowwho
pinkpantheroz
14 hours ago
This is not good.
AdLib14 hours ago
Nope. I’m going to sign off, gotta prepare for next week!
pinkpantheroz

Okay, see you later!
AdLib14 hours ago
Hey TW, you missed PPO.
AdLib14 hours ago
I’m a bit upset that Biden’s people didn’t give him days to rest and strengthen up before the debate. His voice is week, he’s rushing his words and stumbling, he’s validating all the attacks on him as weak and too old. Very unhappy.
AdLib14 hours ago
Hey folks having some problems trying to set up a split screen so I will take some time to share what I’m seeing. First Joe needs to find some fire second Trump is lying as fat ass off, Third Biden needs to find some fire and stop speaking softly thrid Trump is a goddamn liar and finally Uncle Joe needs to step it up.
twilson117

You knowwhat you said about Biden being over-prepped? I think that’s proving to be the case. Instead of being in the moment and nailing Trump for avoiding questions and spraying lies frequently to deceive the public, he’s trying to bat down some of the lies and letting Trump play the game he wanted to play.
AdLib14 hours ago
Trump is the one who had the shot in the ass you can tell be the way he is speaking. Also looks like Biden didn’t get any sleep at all.
twilson117
14 hours ago
Agree on both!
AdLib14 hours ago
The curse of the first debate has shown it’s ugly head in this debate for Biden
twilson117
14 hours ago
I can’t believe how poorly prepared and unstrategic Biden is.
AdLib14 hours ago
This is hard to watch.
AdLib14 hours ago
TRUMP WON’T ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS!!!
AdLib14 hours ago
And Biden won’t say it!
AdLib14 hours ago
Trump is attacking Biden and Biden is only addressing issues.
AdLib14 hours ago
Yes Trump isn’t answering any of the questions put to him and no one is doing anything about it especially the monderaters.
twilson117
14 hours ago
The moderators are awful.
AdLib14 hours ago
Hey Murph! What do you think of this painful debate.
AdLib14 hours ago
Biden looks SO old…
MurphTheSurf3
14 hours ago
Yep. I blame Biden’s team for not taking him offline and rest up for days. He looks old and weak.
AdLib14 hours ago
Old and weak. He is correct, but as we know it is not the truth that counts but how the statement is delivered.
MurphTheSurf3
14 hours ago
Trump is doing what he always does hijacking the debate and not answering the questions and essentially dictatating the questions he wants to answer.
twilson117
14 hours ago
Biden seems to be pepping up…..I wondr
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Murph – Yep, it’s perception over substance and Trump looks bad and a liar but Biden looks old and tired and is not attacking Trump’s flood of lies and refusing to answer questions.
AdLib13 hours ago
The only plus is that Trump is showing off what an obnoxious ass he is.
AdLib13 hours ago
The Afghan horror show…the plan agreed to by the Trump admin
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
All trump can do is babble….
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Agreed. But the well worn Repub plan of spouting a flood of lies that can’t all be addressed and derail the opponent into refuting some of them is prevailing.
AdLib13 hours ago
I will say, if people are deciding between an older man and an obnoxious lying ass, Trump loses voters.
AdLib13 hours ago
Biden is doing better…..
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Really? Biden is talking about golfing?
AdLib13 hours ago
Golfing……I think that our time streams might be off a bit.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Wait for it, Murph. A terrible moment in a presidential debate.
AdLib13 hours ago
Trump just keeps repeating lies. No one presses Trump to answer questions. A terrible debate.
AdLib13 hours ago
I am still not at the golf moment…
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Murph – Hmm, that’s quite a delay.
AdLib13 hours ago
Yeah….I was recording….Biden is now addressing his age…is that when golf came up?
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
After that.
AdLib13 hours ago
At least Biden nailed Trump just before the commercial break. WOn’t ruin it for you though.
AdLib13 hours ago
That last comment by Joe I think hit home, Trump is a whinner
twilson117
13 hours ago
TRUMP TALKING ABOUT THE MEDICARE ACUITY TEST…..so ridiculous…..Trump bragging on golf…..and how in shape he is….he might well be a better physical specimen but Dr. Ronnie Jackson is a fraud.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
TW – Yep, this is what Biden should’ve been doing from the start. Seems like his team wanted him to stay positive and push the issues in this debate but that was a big mistake. Hillary said so in an editorial in the NYT yesterday. You have to step back and point out what Trump’s game is, his narcissism, expose his BS. Talking issues while Trump spouts BS lies and attacks is a mistake.
AdLib13 hours ago
Murph – I would’ve loved if Biden said, “That’s a test you give to people who appear to have mental problems, passing it isn’t the big accomplishment you think it is.”
AdLib13 hours ago
Everyone knows the test he claims he took wasn’t the a true mental acuity test
twilson117
13 hours ago
The golf thing was odd…but not disastrous….now we are talking about elections being accepted.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
I hate the fact that Trump gets to go last with closing comments.
twilson117
13 hours ago
Trump trying to excuse December 6……nonsense on top of nonsense.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
I think this is the worst presidential debate I’ve seen. Trump didn’t answer any questions, Biden was slow and unsteady, the moderators were awful at trying to get responses to their questions.
AdLib13 hours ago
I don’t know….crazy statements like we are near WWIII …..speak of insane…
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
The headlines will read Biden unsteady old man
twilson117
13 hours ago
TW – Closing comments don’t matter. I’ll bet many tuned out much earlier. This was not good.
AdLib13 hours ago
Biden answers with the Nato Treaty and that is key.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Unsteady….perhaps but a truth teller….
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Trump will not commit to honoring the election….and instead says that Putin fears him….
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Murph I agree Biden is telling the truth, but the question I have do you think the people are looking for the Truth?
twilson117
13 hours ago
I do agree that much of the press will focus more on Biden being old and unsteady than Trump evading questions and being a deluded liar.
AdLib13 hours ago
TW – I don’t know that Trump is winning over indie voters but have to say Biden didn’t do well for himself either.
AdLib13 hours ago
They say he had a cold on MSNBC.
AdLib13 hours ago
I h ave caught up now……Biden got stronger and clearer. Trump was incoherent all the way through but he sounded good.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Yeah….Biden and a cold….but his performance was too weak…..
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Just checked on MSNBC they are reporting out that Biden has a cold and I believe took a COVID test but not postive don’t quote me on that. But they are concern about Joe’s performance and that will be the headlines
twilson117
13 hours ago
Murph – Yes, Maddow said Biden folks may wish people saw it in reverse. On MSNBC they’re saying Dem Insiders are talking about Biden may not be fit to stay in the race.
AdLib13 hours ago
Where was the abortion issue…..no fact checking
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Dem insiders….saying that Biden may not be well enough to stay….ok, then who?
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Abortion, democracy at stake, SCOTUS, honestly, a terribly weak performance by Biden.
AdLib13 hours ago
Panic sounds like the word of the night for Dem insiders.
AdLib13 hours ago
Is there suppose to be a second debate? If there is I put money on it that Trump won’t show
twilson117
13 hours ago
Ad….I agree…..scotus, democracy at stake…..
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Yes, there is a second debate on ABC, can’t remember when.
AdLib13 hours ago
Biden needed to give his base, his party tonight what he fave them at SOTU….and that did not happen….he made it clear that 4 more years is less likely tonight.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
“Enfeebled person” mentioned about Biden on MSNBC.
AdLib13 hours ago
SO….who steps in? His VP? I don’t think she has the base.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Folks over at MSNBC are in a panic, I wonder if Lawernece will calm them down?
twilson117
13 hours ago
I have a feeling that Dems could go down with the ship, hard to see them replacing Biden with someone the voters didn’t choose.
AdLib13 hours ago
I’m sure Kamala and Newsom would be at the top of the list but having a nominee foisted upon the Dems could be a big mistake.
AdLib13 hours ago
Lawrence is making a good big picture point, even with Biden underperforming while Trump exposed more madness, will it actually change the race?
AdLib13 hours ago
ODonell is the calming voice with the MSNBC crew he is putting logic to what took place.
twilson117
13 hours ago
And then there is Chris Hayes
twilson117
13 hours ago
TW – True though it’s not just happy talk. It’s a legit point. And in two weeks, Trump will be sentenced, might that not have a stronger impact than this boring and lousy debate?
AdLib13 hours ago
Ad yes, and what I was trying to convey Lawerence in his comments in a way was pointing that out, like when he point about Trump lying about having sex with a porn star, how that will have some impact
twilson117
13 hours ago
What the people at the MSNBC table are reacting to is Biden’s peformace as oppose to what he was saying. But don’t get me wrong, I would have loved to have seen Uncle Joe that showed up at the SOTU.
twilson117
13 hours ago
They just discussed Fetterman’s poor debate performance after his stroke and how pundits all thought it hurt him but the public gave him the win.
AdLib13 hours ago
Yeah saw that.
twilson117
13 hours ago
Plouffe also thinks Trump’s craziness hurt him with undecided voters while very concerned about Biden’s poor performance but says that what voters say is more important.
AdLib13 hours ago
Yeah I was watching that, I there a big part of me that agrees with his assessment
twilson117
13 hours ago
That’s exactly what I said before all of them!
AdLib13 hours ago
SO…I ask again…can anyone step in?
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Obama flubbed his first debate and there is a long standing curse of the first debate so will it impact that much as the talking heads are nashing their teath and pulling their hair out
twilson117
13 hours ago
Murph – Yes, someone could. But I don’t think the Biden campaign will allow for that. My pick would be Newsom.
AdLib13 hours ago
Had Trump been facing someone of the tone and tenor of Obama….it would have been a very different story.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Newsom…….would also have my vote but he is an unknown for the vast majority of voters……
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Terribly disappointed.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Murph – Yep, Biden may be looking poorly tonight but faced with the madness of Trump, the election could be more of a Pro-Trump vs. Anti-Trump dynamic so Joe’s weakness may be less the issue than the threat of Trump.
AdLib13 hours ago
I imagine that the “watch party” for Biden will not be fun.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Biden is now talking far better at the after-debate event! WTH?
AdLib13 hours ago
Murph I believe if we push away from the table and think about this first debate, accept the fact that Biden’s performance was that great, but he told the truth, Trump lied, and lied and lied never answer any of the questions posed to him. I think that is going to have some sway.
twilson117
13 hours ago
Yeah…I just saw Biden at the party…looks better and sounds better….not that this will do much good.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Murph I also believe that if Trump refuses to do the second debate that can be used to prove he is scared of dealing with Biden. Just a thought.
twilson117
13 hours ago
TW – Yes, that’s why I say if it’s a referendum on Trump, Biden can still win.
AdLib13 hours ago
TW…..I contend that the effort to dumb down the electorate makes moments like this particularly catastrphic.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Biden may have been too nervous in the debate. He just sounded good!
AdLib13 hours ago
I just turned off the TV….Biden is alive and stepping high……what he is missing is that Biden just gave his enemies all kinds of video that they do not need to doctor. Where was t his guy during the debate….maybe his meds just kicked in.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Murph – Agreed! But if you’re nervous, it’s not something you can moderate. That’s all I can imagine.
AdLib13 hours ago
Maybe Biden’s nervousness buried him then with the pressure off, he was back to normal.
AdLib13 hours ago
You know what is really funny is watching the crew on MSNBC (except Lawerence) now cheering Biden’s performance based on what he said in the break room where he sounded much better.
twilson117
13 hours ago
TW – I felt the same way as they did. Normal Biden at the after-party, strange to see after a horrible performance.
AdLib13 hours ago
TW…..not that this will matter.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
My excluding Lawerence is his far more reasonable and centered around his analysis of the campaign and Trump overall.
twilson117
13 hours ago
Now Lawrence is saying what I did, that Trump being sentenced in 2 weeks will hurt him more than the debate may have hurt Biden.
AdLib13 hours ago
A campaign does kind of work like ADHD, whatever happens the most recently is most influential. So realistically, Trump being sentenced to some kind of imprisonment in 2 weeks will likely eclipse this debate performance.
AdLib13 hours ago
Biden’s campaign needs to take off the gloves….pick up hatchets….and decimate Trump and his minions. If it is a choice of Trump, the horror story, or Biden, the nice old man…..Biden probably wins.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
It is better that this happened tonight that a month from now but “better” is based on the alternative.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Murph – Agreed, Biden and his campaign need to destroy Trump. And if Trump attends the 2nd debate, Biden needs to focus wholly on exposing Trump’s tactics and threat to the country. Pushing issues is a big mistake in a debate with Trump.
AdLib13 hours ago
Ad…my concern is that Biden is a policy wonk….he loves those details.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Newsom being interviewed now on MSNBC, he is the highest profile Dem next to Kamala who could step in but I don’t think Biden will step aside.
AdLib13 hours ago
If there isa second debate, there is no question in my mind that Biden will do far better.
twilson117
13 hours ago
Well….I need to get to bed…..hopefully without dream references to tonights train wreck.
MurphTheSurf3
13 hours ago
Murph – Yes, this Biden has to change from being issue-based to being a boxer and knocking Trump down.
AdLib13 hours ago
Night Murph, let’s wait to see the polling on the debate though before we file it under “disaster”.
AdLib13 hours ago
Biden was truthful, Trump lied about everything. Those people who want Trump back in the WH don’t know what they are talking about. Especially those who buy Trump’s lies, those billioniares want Trump because of tax cuts and he will let them ruin the country as long as he gets to “wet his beak” Trump cares nothing for the country and will see it out in a heartbeat and all those folks who follow him thinking he is strong in my humble opinions are GD fools .

Back for a moment……finished watching Newsom…impressive.
MurphTheSurf3

He’s a very savvy politician and would spank Trump’s bottom.
he call?
AdLib12 hours ago
Maybe…..sure….. I will see how much energy I have.
MurphTheSurf3
12 hours ago
By the way….I hate the entire debate format…….always have….
MurphTheSurf3
It is a false test of what is needed to hold the office.
