I’m super shocked that Russian intelligence would take advantage of a drunk, idiotic mess of a human.

Then maybe I’m nuts. I mean Rudy prosecuted all those mob cases. He was THE U.S Attorney for the Southern District of New York, probably the most important in the Country. He couldn’t be that naive, could he?

I think the Rudy you're remembering no longer exists

I won't watch either one of them. I don't really know why anybody would. I will watch the 3rd debate though.

I’ll be interested to see if anyone challenges Biden from the left. A lot of hurting people out there.

Not disavowing white supremacy worked out so well for Trump he's doing it for QAnon

The Rudy we knew (still not my favorite guy) was mutated into the embarrassing criminal doofus he is today when he stepped into an elevator with Mike Pence's fly

Oi vey

That just induced this flashback from 2016

[HarthorneWingo]

Trump just claimed that the allegations against Judge Kavanaugh were phony and Savanah Guthrie simply moved onto the next topic. What a sham!

You need to watch this shyt.

EXTENDED QUOTE:

Spoiler:

If being the daughter of a polarizing mayor who became the president’s personal bulldog has taught me anything, it is that corruption starts with “yes-men” and women, the cronies who create an echo chamber of lies and subservience to maintain their proximity to power. We’ve seen this ad nauseam with Trump and his cadre of high-level sycophants (the ones who weren’t convicted, anyway).

What inspires me most about Vice President Biden is that he is not afraid to surround himself with people who disagree with him. Choosing Senator Harris, who challenged him in the primary, speaks volumes about what an inclusive president he will be. Biden is willing to incorporate the views of progressive-movement leaders like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren on issues like universal health care, student debt relief, prison reform, and police reform. And he is capable of reaching across the aisle to find moments of bipartisanship. The very notion of “bipartisanship” may seem painfully ludicrous right now, but we need a path out of impenetrable gridlock and vicious sniping. In Joe Biden, we’ll have a leader who prioritizes common ground and civility over alienation, bullying, and scorched-earth tactics.

Speaking of scorched earth, I know many people feel paralyzed by climate despair. I do too, but something still can and must be done. As climate change begins to encroach on our everyday lives, it is clear that our planet cannot survive four more years of this administration’s environmental assault. This monumental challenge requires scientifically literate leadership and immediate action. Joe Biden has laid out an aggressive series of plans to restore the environmental regulations that Trump gutted on behalf of his corporate polluting friends. Biden has a transformational clean-energy policy that he will bring to Congress within his first 100 days in office, and perhaps most crucially, he brings a desire and capability to reunite the major nations of the world in forging a path toward a global green future.

I fully understand that some of you want a nominee who is more progressive. For others the idea of voting for a Democrat of any kind may be a hurdle. Now I have another confession to make. Biden wasn’t my first choice when the primaries started. But I know what is at stake, and Joe Biden will be everyone’s president if elected. If you are planning to cast a symbolic vote or abstain from voting altogether, please reconsider. It is more important than ever to avoid complacency. This election is far from over, and if 2020 has taught us anything, it’s that anything can happen.

We are hanging by a single, slipping finger on a cliff’s edge, and the fall will be fatal. If we remove ourselves from the fight, our country will be in freefall. Alternatively, we can hang on, elect a compassionate and decent president, and claw our way back onto the ledge. If I, after decades of despair over politics, can engage in our democracy to meet this critical moment, I know you can too.

NYC/NY State for example has one of the highest regional tax rates and collected revenue yet is also in insane debt with inferior infrastructure to other world class cities, and a growing homelessness and poverty problem.

Why would I ever vote for a candidate promoting higher tax rates when it will just mean rich people skirting them legally, and the middleclass paying for the corporate subsidies most of which they get kickbacks from in either political support(NYC teacher union deblasio) or outright monetary compensation(Deblasio's wife thrivenyc)

YOU COMPLETELY IGNORE how NY State pays far more in taxes to the Federal government than it receives back in services and money - the exact opposite of all the red states.

And?
How would higher federal tax rates help NY residents?
You know what would help me? Lowering my NYC income tax rate instead of spending literally billions on failed public programs/ successful money washing schemes like thrivenyc.

Did you not understand what I wrote, or did you purposely misconstrue it?

Very clearly, were the Federal Government to return to NY money and services in the same population ratios that it is given to almost every red state, NYS could then maintain its higher level of programs with far lower state taxes. I didn't mention funding failed program,s nor did I say anything at all about higher Federal taxes. If you'd like to continue this discussion, I'd be happy to do so provided you respond to what I write and not create any straw men or false premise arguments.

I missed most of the Trump performance. I read that he yelled at his questioners. Is this true?

Trump is having a black knight kind of night you say?

[BKlutch]

So it's ok that the most deluded, lying, cheating, fraudulent, corrupt, hateful, bigoted President that ever was in office continues to destroy the country because that'll teach what to who exactly? There's a phrase 'cutting off the nose to spite the face' but this is more like blowing off your head to spite your nose.

I've enjoyed reading many things you've written.

This post deserves to be nominated for the best one you've ever made.

Thank you for doing that.

The NY Times has a running commentary on both town halls.
It's going just as you'd expect.
I was very pleased with Biden's comments on court packing. Trump's inability to rise above his own character flaws continues unabated.

The feds have announced they are investigating the trumped up issues about emails as being possibly state sponsored election interference. Wait until Trump hears that - he may just have a stroke.
