I had fun following the debate this evening and posting along on Gab. Reminded me of those halcyon days of 2016 where I would post along on Twitter and the boards with the bros. This second debate was far better than the first 2020 debate, where Trump didn't quite know how to approach Biden so he hit the old politician with everything he had, billowing and blustering. Great fun, but far less memorable. No catchphrase meme moments if you will. This time around? Hoo boy. Needless to say, Joe lost. He lost bigly.
Number 1 -- he went on public record saying he wanted to end the oil industry. Trump looked elated. Even the debate moderator paused for a moment. "Why would you do that?" She asked in disbelief. Joe says oil is poisonous or some such nonsense.
Number 2 -- he said he would re-enter the Paris Accord without changing it. But he would hold China accountable he says! Yes, but Trump had just said China wouldn't have to do anything until 2030. I don't think Americans want to pay for filthy China for ten years while they pocket even more of our money.
Number 3 -- zero prison time for "pure" drug offenses. Very odd one to hold to for me, why would he do this? He literally said he wouldn't arrest someone for cocaine possession. Sure, rehab sounds all well and good until people realize the sheer amount of drugs flowing in from very powerful people and very big foreign gangs. Heads up foreign gangs, none of you will be arrested any longer. It's called boosting the economy in Joe's world, I guess.
Number 4 -- 11 million illegal immigrants would be made citizens within the first year. 11 million. That's a decent size city's worth. I assume this works in tangent with point #3, as the foreign drug dealers would have to be American citizens in order to not be arrested for selling dope to your boy Johnny. But don't worry, Johnny will be taken and put into rehab. On the taxpayer's dime of course.
Any one of these points alone would kill an average politician before they hit the primaries. But this is clown world. These points are real platforms. We don't even need to discuss Biden's constant confusion. There was no mere stuttering. I have friends who stutter. They don't say "B-52... B-1 Bombers..." or "Poor Boys" on a stutter. That's just confusion. The old man noticeably shut down -- more than once! -- during the debate as he attempted to answer questions. A system reboot I suppose.
I'll be curious to see how the MSM spins it. And of course, we still have the Laptop from Hell lurking in the background...
