Anyone Else Excited About The First Debate?

[hawky454]

I’m not excited but I may not be able to not watch! Better off watching Idiocracy as it’s becoming more an more accurate each year.

Remember the discussion about the weak vs. the strong... this fine piece of primetime entertainment, will be relevant to that discussion.

They should put South Park characters in the audience like they did at the Denver Broncos game.

heads up. 1 hr South Park pandemic special tomorrow. It should be epic. I always ask myself "what would Randy do"

 

[fightnhampster]

Maybe I like American elections because I live in England and it isn't wall to wall coverage here? Most of the things I see about it I have to seek out.

I go back and forth depending on what month it is ?

You see it too

If they did do that then the next days New York Times headline would definitely be "Trump killed Kenny!"

Another thing I love about American elections are the insane attack ads both sides run. Over here in England we don't get them as it's against the rules. The only ads each side get are a thing called a "party political broadcast" which lasts about 10 minutes. Each side gets about 3 of these and that's it.

I saw one American ad where the guy was shooting piles of paper with a shotgun, I think they were regulations or something? I just remember thinking "that's so American," we'd never get anything like that over here?

A better option is available a half hour into the debate, Debbe Dunning! A large meer full of BB1938 and the ever present hope she will appear in those white shorts at some point in the show.

Speaking of sports.. Did you guys ever see a certain orange man's wrestling debut?

And did it without a hair out of place...phenomenal.

Can’t wait to watch though my mind was already made up in 2016

I've got a lot to do, so I probably won't watch it. This late in the game it's doubtful that any of the debates will move the dial in any appreciable matter. Short of a really dramatic event, like one of the participants found naked up in the stage perms, flapping his arms and clucking like a chicken, people's decisions, which have already largely been made, will not be changed.
Frankly, I think candidates from all parties should be debating each other from the beginning of the primaries, and get rid of party tickets, kind of like it was in the early days of the country.

It's pretty lively so far

We don't really have the big debates come election time. We do however have Prime Minister's Questions each week where they do battle over the dispatch box for half an hour. I think I prefer that as it's a regular thing with questions of the day.

Depressing to think these are the two best candidates our country can put forward. Biden in particular is a total clown. Best line thus far was when Trump deadpans " nobody will show up" to Biden rallies. Biden is performing better than I thought he would but he's still a career politician scumbag.

 

[tbradsim1]

Yes sad that those two are supposed to be our best. Definition of a politician. Poly means many, tic is a blood sucker, many blood suckers, nuff said.

C'mon y'all. This thread has been alright so far, but you really don't have to inject your personal opinions. One of the nice things about being in the military is we get a lot of practice keeping our mouths shut on political topics.

 

[olkofri]

Don't watch debates myself. But, man, from the updates I'm reading on my trusted newscaster that's more like a round of verbal fisticuffs instead of a debate.

LOL, we do. We just aren't good at keeping our mouths shut for pretty much everything else.

All Commanding Officers are one penis-joke away from getting fired. Razor thin line, haha

 

[Country Bladesmith]

This looks like the movie “Grumpy Old Men.” ?

 

[didimauw]

Three pages of a thread about politics, and it didn't get political. I appreciate it guys. But I'm not taking the chance.
