Well, we have, theoretically, two more presidential debates and one VP debate to go, so I thought one thread on this might be good. That said, given that "shitshow" last night (thank you Dana Bash, CNN), who knows if Trump and Biden will meet again. WTF was Trump thinking? And Joe, by no means a stellar debater, I thought withstood the storm well and definitely played above the stupid low expectations Trump set.

I'm guessing the 3rd debate is cancelled. That would probably be the one dealing with foreign affairs, etc.
Interesting. After this first debate, I'm ecstatic to watch the next one. As far as the VP debate, I've never watched one before. I was VERY impressed with how Harris spoke last night post debate.
at this point, Biden would not be punished by voters by simply saying further debates with that man are useless and a wast of time
I am looking forward to the VP debate. Last election Pence got lucky with Tim Kaine. Kamala is going to eat him alive
All I've heard about the debates are how ridiculous the arguing, interrupting and insulting was, and why the debate shows that that guy shouldn't be president. Did anybody hear anything from either candidate that made you want to vote for him (as opposed to against the other guy)?
Yeah, when Joe told Trump to shut up AND called him a clown, Joe got my vote (I was planning on voting for whatever Independent candidate popped up). Trump made it clearer than ever he is incapable of leading this country anywhere but into the toilet.
