So the first debate is behind us and it was pretty much a disaster for Joe Biden.
Biden mumbled and stumbled and became confused a couple of times. He seemed weak and obviously not up to four more years of the Presidency.
Trump held himself in check, looking presidential and composed. He answered Biden well on most of his points. He attacked Biden where vulnerable. He was aggressive without being rude. I think Trump knocked it out of the park.
The amazing thing was the moderators, both of whom despise Mr. Trump. They almost seemed to do their jobs. Yeah; they kept the abortion topic front and center as long as they could, but I expected them to pull a Chris Wallace on the former President. They ALMOST acted like journalists.
Biden came alive over abortion at one point and seemed like his old self for a bit; he loves murdering babies. But Trump pretty much tore him apart, accusing him and his party of wanting to kill babies wherever they could be found.
Trump could have answered a few questions better. When asked what he would do about Putin he didn't give a concrete answer, saying he would never have let it happen. True, but he needed to offer a plan. That plan to me is obvious; get the price of oil and gas down. Putin is only able to sustain this war because he is flush with windfall profits from the high price of oil - a high price purposely imposed by Joe Biden to force Americans into electric vehicles. It's the green agenda.
And Trump never did answer them when asked what he would do about the environment. The answer is simple; improve the economy. Rich nations are clean, far cleaner than developing countries. The environment is actually cleaner now than it was twenty years ago, and that was cleaner than forty, etc. Wealth leads to cleanliness. Trump should have said that.
Trump also touched on Biden's racism, but never really got into the meat of it. He should have pointed out that it was Joe Biden who wrote the '90's crime bill that led to the incarceration of so many black men. Trump could have gone after Biden on that.
Be that as it may Trump did a fine job and clearly won last night.
The moderators moderation speaks volumes; it's clear they want to replace Captain Peachfuzz and so did not throw him a lifeline. And after-debate analysis all admitted Trump won - by Democrats. It's clear they plan to dump him before the Convention and substitute a dark horse candidate. I still suspect it will be the Mooche, Michelle Obama. It could be a governor - from Wisconsin or Michigan. But they will pick someone largely unknown to the American People and who will help secure the swing states and the Trump Democrats.
I assure you there are many dirty tricks awaiting. Right now they are apparently fattening the Donald up for the slaughter.
But at least we can enjoy last night. Nobody can claim Trump lost last night - not even CNN.

Iron Mike keeps insisting she does not want to run. I think it's more likely to be Gov. Hair Gel, as many, unaccountably, like him. If they have to have a black, maybe Stacey Abrams? She adds the cachet of being ugly, too.
And don't count Felonia von Pantsuit out!

So are they gonna replace Joe? It's not like they have anybody who has a good track record. Gavin Newsom? Don't make me laugh; Kalifornistan's a basket case. Iron Mike? She's never governed a lemonade stand, and neither has Felonia von Pantsuit. The harridans on "The View" would swoon over either of them, but who cares?
The Democrat's bench is very thin. Somebody will suggest Pete Butt-giggy, of course, as a sop for the twisted people in the country, but there aren't enough of them to vote him in.

I too think it will be Sasquatchelle. I really don't think the Democrats are crazy enough to go with Her Thighness.
Dana you are right; the Dems have a thin bench. They will go with a dark horse, someone not well known. That is how they won almost every election since Kennedy, with someone who had little public exposure and thus no solid record to run against. Biden was a huge exception and they won only because the public thought they were getting a "moderate" who would restore dignity to the office. They were fooled.
And may be again with a dark horse candidate. The public has said frequently in polls they aren't crazy about either choice, and if some unknown Knight in Shining Armor appears they may throw caution to the wind. I remember when Jimmy Carter was elected and everyone was saying "let's give him a try!" We know how THAT turned out.
Insome ways this makes the race much harder for Trump; if they replace Biden it's a whole new ballgame. Now, as things stand, Biden is toast.

I agree; Jill is as power-hungry as Hillary, though not as shrill.
The debate was a huge embarrassment for all of America. THIS is our leader! I suspect we'll be in a shooting war before November to save the senile old fool.
