Has he even answered any questions yet?  It always the same response.

She must have done her debate prep with JudgeJudy and IlliniGolf because she trolled the living hell out of him.

Project 2025 - twice
400 million from his dad
Flattery from foreign dictators
Central Park Five
John McCain
John Kelly and John Bolton

I think there were a few more. She laid a trigger bait into every snippet and he took the bait... every single time.
It was starting to get very predictable - as soon as they brought up the ACA I bet my buddy 5 bucks she says John McCain

Whatever hypnotherapy or sorcery they did to get this level of debate performance out of her is impressive. Also as Murph touched on, it seems they shifted strategy from trying to call out his lies to just having her lie and forcing him to react to those. Which was effective.

Throwing facts at Trump and Trumpers is simply not helpful.
“Taking a trip? Where to?”  -“Wherever I end up, I guess. -“Man, I wish I was you." -Well, hang in there.”

Kamala went upside his head.  She lit the fuse and handed Trump the dynamite.  And did it with a smile.

I haven't heard any responses to Trump using Viktor Orban as a job reference.

Quite a step up from our overthrown commander-in-hiding’s performance a couple months ago.

As Max says - "Uh uh - that's bait"

Really? I think Trump was actually a step down from Biden in July, but that's just me.

pretty simple strategy.

Tell the truth.
Touch on policy.
A few weepy anecdotes about women and blue collar people.
EVERY single time you get the mic, put in a trigger for Trump so he will spend 2 minutes hysterically distracted
Ignore what he says. No need to rebut small factual errors or gross stupidity. Stick to the script.

She was 95% perfect, at some point towards the end she insisted on going back to something about fracking.

The killer move was the question about inflation, she gave a generic answer about making people's lives better via this policy or that policy, then throwing another grenade a Trump so he parried that instead of sticking to inflation.

Anyone been to see “Am I Racist?” yet?

Other than Murph, obviously.

Went to the "A Complete Unknown" last evening.  It was well done and all the actors did their own singing.  Brought back many memories from the 60's.
Dylan goes electric, the Dead go acoustic, Johnny Cash was drinking, yep, dynamic times!

I have been watching the Landman series. Not many shows get me invested but this one has.
