    This is the first time I’ve truly not cared at all about whether or not there is a presidential debate

      Any debate with Trump in it is a farce. He just tries to interrupt, talk over, and talk louder than his opponent. It’s all part of his faux-macho “establish dominance” strategy, just like when he pulls people toward him when he shakes their hand to knock them off balance. Remember the Gorsuch handshake?

      Yeah, I always try to watch the debates, always. I’m a big fun of the democratic process, and I always like to try and give the candidates a chance to make their case, even if I know I probably won’t vote for them. But you’re right, I really don’t give a crap about the debate. It’s just going to be a globally publicized shit show, nothing productive is going to come out of it, and it’s not going to change my mind. There’s nothing Trump can realistically say that will get me to vote for him, and I’d, very seriously, sooner have Vermin Supreme for president before Trump.

      Its going to be the best bit… watching trump spew some insane bullshit then see him smacked down using his own track record. Delicious.
