The main problem with the debate is that the audience that is listening has to actually also be SANE.

If you have nutjobs listening to all this ... they'll love Trump no matter how reasonable Harris may sound.

The trouble has been, is and will always be ... the general intelligence of the US population.

PBS has a lady on who says congresspeople are contacting her and basically saying, "why couldn't it have been Nikki Haley?!"

Trump looked angry & rattled. Harris looked like she belonged on that stage.

Trump on Harris' racial identity: "I don't care what she is. Whatever she wants to be is okay with me. All I can say is I read where she was not black where she put out and then I read that she was black and that's okay with me."

I’m experiencing so many conflicting emotions right now. Horrified, amused, enthusiastic, resigned…

There’s smoke coming out of my ears, and I smell a burning clutch from constantly shifting gears.

Trump on immigration: "People don't leave my rallies. They don't go to her rallies. Also, WWIII is going to happen because immigrants, but the towns are too embarrassed to talk about it, but black people are eating dogs. People go to my rallies because they want to Make America Great Again which is a great phrase. She is destroying this country, it will be Venezuela on steroids."

I got to say Trump has stayed much calmer than I was hoping he would. I was really hoping she could get him lathered up, and while he's absolutely crazy for a normal person for Trump he's fairly normal tonight. It's a bummer.
