If It Was A Dumpster Fire, It Was One Trump Set: Jon Meacham On The debate | Stephanie Ruhle | MSNBC
Trump’s attitude toward the debate is the same he has toward the vote. He can’t win it, so he just won’t let it happen.
God I hope so
Why do the Republicans still support Trump?
_To get Amy Coney Barrett into SCOTUS._
And then?
_Then Trump is useless cause nobody needs him anymore._
Ziggi Mon hey trump troll why you ask?
They need a fact checker live!
@voodooblue61 blue Yes they absolutely do.
“it is what it is because you are who you are.“
Republicans are fake Patriots.
@Michael Kurchak The hatred existed before Obama but was somewhat hidden. Trump came in full force with bully tactics, lying, and rascism and that evil oozed out of the ground around him. Americans wake up. Listen. Understand what you are hearing and vote as early as you can. Vote blue so we can return sanity and integrity to our government.
Republicans are more at home calling themselves Conservatives. During the Colonial Era, the then Conservatives (aka Tories, aka Loyalists) stood by their BENEDICT ARNOLD. The Conservatives of today stand by their BENEDICT DONALD.
@Franz Ludwig very astute
They are very patriotic.
Towards Russia and putin. They are traitors one and all.
Faketriots
Last night Trump called for civil war to help him retain power. This is the ultimate betrayal and he should be removed. Vote en mass! No peace while racism reigns!
@Ralph Colerick Which is why he constantly calls for a drug test. He knows they won’t do them. And believes that it takes the glare off him if he projects his own issues onto others. He does it day in and day out. His whole administration does. If they say the other side is doing this or that, it is probably because that is what they are doing themselves!
@Cornelius Gal you don’t think so? He asked them to stand by….and they are out there so happy the president has ‘called them to arms’. You don’t think he knew exactly what he was doing?
@Victor Johnson And the GOP has had the chance. And they f=in blew it for their own greediness. And who will they put in his place? Nikki Haley who sang his praises last night about how great he was?
@Cornelius Gal , most Americans would think you are wrong, that indeed Trump told his right wing extremest thugs to be prepared.
It is treason and sedition
Any Person with Decency would be
Outraged at Trump’s Behavior Last
Night. Clearly you can’t Expect the
Republic0ns to have Decency…..😊
@MAC please provide evidence that BLM and Antifa are responsible for all the illegal activity, as opposed to random people with no affiliation.
Also again, this is just a minute group of individuals doing damage when the majority of protests, in a handful of cities, have been peacful.
Also, have you finished your homework?
@Owen Svenson BLM leader Ariel Atkins approved of the wide scale looting and destruction in Chicago and was calling for more looting and calling looting “reparations”. BLM protestors surrounded and tried to attack Rand Paul. A BLM leader in DC was calling on other activists to burn the White House down. Do a search. Early on two prominent BLM lawyers were caught making and distributing Molotov cocktails and firebombing a police vehicle. Jay Bishop was shot by a self identifying Antifa activist. Antifa “Commander Red” recently arrested with a flame thrower. Many other Antifa arrested.. mug shots online. There is video of Antifa woman setting Portland community center on fire.
@MAC sorry, some of the examples you gave have no evidence that they are affiliated with the BLM organization and or Antfia. And really, an “almost” attack on rand paul? Are the lawyers really affiliated with BLM organization? Was the woman who set fire to the community center Antifa. Evidence? The guy urging protesters to burn down the white house is not affiliated with BLM organization; he had his own separate organization and used BLM in his title. And several mug shots? Evidence they were Antfia? Look man even if All these people had Antifa or BLM tattooed on their forehead you just proved my point. The threat is miniscule. The Majority of the protests in small parts of the country, are peaceful.
Quit clutching your pearls man. I’ve done my research now do yours. You’ve mentioned one Antifa supporter killing someone…
…. where’s the rest of your research? What’s the body count perpetrated by right wing extremists?
Furthermore, I dont condone violence and public destruction but what would be your breaking point? At what point would you retaliate? Maybe if you were bullied as a kid? Now imagine that kid being bullied every once and awhile, on the bus. Now imagine if it was groundhog day; time repeating itself, and the kid is bullied for generations? Now imagine that it was a whole race of bullied children over generations? Now imagine that these bullied unarmed kids are being killed in much greater proportions then the rest of the world. Would there be a breaking point?
@MAC I hope you could watch this Dave Chappelle video below. I recommend the whole set but could you please listen to the story of Chris Dorner. It starts at 10:34 and goes to 14:50. I hope you give it a shot. I think it makes my point better than the analogy I gave in the above comment.

@Owen Svenson The leftists are all loosely tied together. BLM leader Ariel Atkins after the looting in Chicago was calling for more looting and calling the looting “reparations”. The leader in DC was calling on BLM activists from around the country to burn the White House down. The victim mentality was the same as Hitler’s thugs had..that was Hitler’s platform… German workers have been run over by capitalists …time to retaliate. Continual fires and rioting in Seattle…Minneapolis ..Portland for three months straight and billions in property damages.. is not small and isolated. You are “retaliating” against people who only have a vague connection or no connection to anything that happened with the police or racism. My great great great great great grandfather may have been friends with someone who owned a slave … or I may not have protested against a police killing… thus BLM would say my “silence is violence” and feel justified in burning my house down. Regardless of what police have done… that is still terrorism.
Putin must be proud of Donaldiev Jerkoffski Trumpov Performance. No man has ever been able to debate a Orangutan before. This is first
I love orangutans! How dare you offended the wonderful animals?
@danuta dobrowolska 😤😠 I agree! Dump tRump!🇨🇦🙏🌊🌊🌊🌊🙏🇺🇸❎❣️
Donaldiev Trumpov Putinech, aka “ADonlf Trumpssolini”
I Love that name, can I add it to my list?? Right now I’m going with
Agolf J. (Jagoff) Twitler!!
Horrible display of a president… that was embarrassing for America..
Cornelius Gal stay racist and ignorant kid I’m sure your racist moron parents are proud of you….
If you think that was horrible wait till after the election he will declare martial law and set up a BS commission where he will imprison Dems and welcome Vlad.
@American Patriot that’s hilarious 🤣😂😁😂🤣 By any chance are your parents siblings?
@Thing Fish Look man I met with companies working on the Mark of the Beast and also Genetic Armageddon so I don’t think this is funny. Than the LORD said the Mark of the Beast is also in the mind a persons way of thinking. He showed the anti-christ doctrine as per Romans 1 to show who has the Mark of Satan in the forehead than he showed me Jeremiah 31 to show who is of God. If one supports the things of Lucifer how can you do good? Well God is not real than why do those who say that believe and follow the polar opposite of the doctrines of Christ? Joe Biden and Kamala Harris both claim to be Christian but in truth they are liberal satanists because they follow and believe in the doctrine of anti-christ. No child of God can get a marriage license and marry men with men and girls with girls. It is not possible as per Jeremiah 31. This act is not a sin but a declaration of war against God, his kingdom, his sovereignty and his perfect law. Only a God rejecting reprobate would do such a thing. Chris Wallace is a liberal satanist so much of his questions last night dealt with Satan’s end times agenda and ideology. For example why do you have so many climate deniers who think climate change is a hoax? Why is the Paris accord so important to Lucifer and his end times agenda? It goes back to Jeremiah 31, Genesis 11 and even Cain and Abel. Paul tells us this in Hebrews. So I write out the spiritual meaning of things to explain what is really going on.
Climate change is a sin offering of Cain for sinning against the planet for the world to come together as one. A ponzi scheme of redistribution of wealth to bring in the socialist communist marxist, one world government. Since when can money fix the weather? You light off a few nukes and your climate is changed forever.
(Hebrews 10:18) “Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.”
(Hebrews 10:16) “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;”
(1 John 3:12) “Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother. And wherefore slew he him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.”
(Hebrews 11:4) “By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.”
(Genesis 4:2) “Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.”
(Genesis 4:3) “And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.”
(Genesis 11:5-6) “And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.”
God’s law on men with men
(Leviticus 20:13) “If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.”
God’s law on gender and marriage any doctrine which differs is of anti-christ
(Matthew 19:4-6) “Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.”
@Nota Bene well put…too bad his base can’t read more than 3 words together
It’s not Biden’s job to catch Trump on his lies. It’s the moderator’s job to call out both participants on inconsistencies.
@Cornelius Gal 👉You BEST yourself get to a hospital ASAP, because you MUST be infected by that BRAIN Eating Amoeba …🤯👨⚕️🩺
@Cornelius Gal “will u shutup man……u clown”
@Cornelius Gal last TWO comments are for u…..forgot to put ur name on one
Unfortunately, NO ONE could not be fully prepared for all the possible off-the-cuff remarks and claims. ALL assertions should be visibly flagged on TV, meaning that the speaker is then tasked with providing proof, which will be moderated /validated /refuted before the moderator posts it online in, say, 16 hours
A non reply within ~12 hours implies the statement has ZERO basis.
The American people’s job to research and learn the truth!
Watch this well researched documentary and ask yourself why the covid was released… timing and planned!
https://youtu.be/JRmlcEBAiIs
The true Republican party no longer exists it has become the Trump cult
Trump Derangement Syndrome is the disorder ALL MAGAts have.
The republican party became what it was always headed towards.
The true Republican party ceased to be around the time of Nixon.
Deborah Husted I just went to a FOX site and nothing convince them that Trump will destroy the country
t’rumpublicans
Everyone I spoke to is sick today, Enough, no horrific lying, cheating dictators! NO MORE LIES!!!!
@Ziggi Mon That’s what you saw??? lol
@Ziggi Mon
You back trump and use the word cogent? 😅🤣😂🙃😛😜🤪😝🤑🤓
Your emoji-fu is weak, and lacks true sphericality.
And you’re still going to use the insults needlessly. I’m trying not to be insulting, but your venom only.hurts yourself. My venom, of course , is perky and invigorating to me, and a viewers, but that isnt your fault . I suppose.
* gives Ziggi mon a patronizing little pat on the head*
@Ziggi Mon OK, have fun and enjoy yourself then. Laughter is the best medicine
@Ziggi Mon also, raw aggression appeals to the lizard brain. Trump was more agressive, yes. But were his points valid? Accurate? Not cheap shots? FACTCHECKEDFACTCHECKEDFACTCHECKEDFACTCHECKED?? HMMM?
Time for some well documented research and TRUTH! ENJOY!
https://youtu.be/JRmlcEBAiIs

“Givе me ten years, and you will not recognize Germany anymore!”
― Adolf Schicklgruber @ election slogan, 1933
Trump believes in nothing, honors nothing, and respects nothing. As far as Trump is concerned, serving anything or anyone other than yourself, makes you a loser. He truly believes there is no cause greater than himself. It’s why reason why he said Arlington Cemetery is filled with losers & suckers. It’s the reason why he said our men and women in uniform are losers & suckers.
Boo Hoo! So many butt-hurt Liberals because Trump wiped the floor with Biden!
@Moira McCleary ANONYMOUS SOURCES SAY IDIOT’S
@Barbara Witchey 👉You BEST yourself get to a hospital ASAP, because you MUST be infected by that BRAIN Eating Amoeba …🤯👨⚕️🩺
Disgustingly pathetic, yet “A-typical” of Trump…
@Paul Ferrante I am surrounded BY QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS no worries JUST look up the TRUTH
Watching Trump behave like a two yr. old…humiliates America.
@Bubbles you are a fool amongst trump fools. Stupid is as stupid does and that is why you are a trump supporter after all birds of a feather flock together…you don’t have his money so sad!
Learn the truth!

Research AVIC and watch this well researched documentary!
https://youtu.be/JRmlcEBAiIs
@Robert Dickerson You are a fool if you endorse a liar.
Vote Blue all the way down the ballot. Republicans must be severely punished NO MERCY!!! COUNTRY BEFORE PARTY.
Dan W. Why do you want open borders?
2018 dems turned out in droves and handed control of the house back to democrats which helped serve articles of impeachment. Imagine if the senate flipped then too?!? You wouldn’t be seeing this today. Your country very well could’ve had a better covid response even with pence in power?
EVERYONE dems republicans independents every single eligible voter must unite against hatred. Unite against this rising fascist con artist criminal. BIDEN HARRIS 2020 🙏🙏🙏
“Givе me ten years, and you will not recognize Germany anymore!”
― Adolf Schicklgruber @ election slogan, 1933
Yeah cuz all blue will make things better????? The dems are no different then the republicans two sides of the same coin
John Griffith I mean I sort of agree that establishment democrats aren’t much better HOWEVER, there are so many awesome people in the Democratic Party that it just makes sense to get rid of the cowardly gop who enable your fascist clown of a president! If you would’ve flipped the senate Trump would’ve been impeached and you wouldn’t be dealing with all this garbage! Putting country before party is your only hope 🤷♂️
Debbie proud of Joe Biden trying his best to talk to the American people he was in a very difficult situation I felt he did the best he can to make things normal
@Ralph Colerick trump acted like he was on drugs. Practically foaming at the mouth. He’s an absolute low life thug, bully.
Biden was decent, polite, in control and, in one word, presidential. Trump was not, to say the least. It was very smart of Biden to face the camera and talk to Americans directly instead of getting sucked in Trump’s tactics of outrage.
@Myriam Ickx He tried his best with poop being thrown at him.He won the debate.
@Total T He needed a spanking.
@Myriam Ickx I agree with you 100% even if you don’t like Joe we can’t have another four years with that crazy guy
Trump doesn’t care what Americans think. He’s desperate because he knows he will be charged for his crimes. Bully is running scared.
Karma is a slippery soap bar.
@Kirk Thiets rabid dogs get gunned down, dead! Hmm…
Bully Bully unstable baby toddler. Disgrace to the people and country.
A tremendous disgrace. He needs to go down. Under about 10 feet 😈
Don’t forget about Putin. He owns 45…
Trump Playbook is all too simple – “Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth” – Joseph Goebbels
Nick Beard: Joseph Goebbels would be proud of donnie. This is a sad day for Americans. Who could have expected this administration of thugs and bullies in America in 2020? Vote him out.
Hi everyone
<< How can any voter with half a brain be undecided after Trump’s psychotic behavior during the debate?
@xjaskix how many kids do you have with your sister?
@xjaskix , Who you talkin’ about fool? Nobody on that stage but Joe even tried to answer in a debate-like manner.. Get this right…..We don’t want any more of the Orange Sociopathic Bone Spur! He’s done – stick a fork in him (preferably in his blabbering tongue). He can’t hide his Negligent Manslaughter of 206,000 Americans. Next time we’ll let T-rump debate a judge in the sentencing hearing.
@xjaskix why do trumpist go from brown nosing to heads stuck up his butt. Trumps the lead of their human centipede
What Brain? Only this kind of Brain money 💰💰💰💰💰 pocket TRUMP has.
Because we have a lot of stupid people.
Trump is willing to do EVERYTHING in his power to stay in The White House, including violence.
@Scott Alexander they are financed and directed by joe’s puppetmaster, soros. Joe has a tiny minority. The media is decieving you and others. polls are fake. Don’t get your hopes too high.
You conspiracy theorists would be comical if you weren’t so dangerous.
Yep
With violence our defence forces need to draw a red line with battling civil unrest in the streets, just don’t do it, you’re supposed to be defending the people not the mob.
@David Crabtree , Warning Troll Attack! This fool has obviously been snorting bleach mixed with hydroxy-chloroquine. He is under the same brain fog as The Orange Bone Spur (I mean – look at the way T-rump couldn’t keep his yap shut). And, if you want to find out who is causing the push-back against people exercising their right to protest (peacefully) just check with the elected officials in the places where the sh*t has hit the fan. Most of them are saying “you out of state troopers need to leave – NOW!
Yes, Virginia, Psychiatrist Bandy X. Lee WARNED THE WORLD that President Donald Trump IS CLINICALLY-INSANE…
and getting worse
@orphan 200 when he loses he will foam at the mouth and smear his poo all over the oval office.
Trump us fully and totally mad. Our Africa dictators are only galf-mad compared to the mad man destroying America
Now – does anyone REALLY think that Trump doesn’t cheat on his taxes?
The real question is do people now believe that the Russians helped Trump?
Dear Pat, the only reason Trump completed his tax return was to get the rebate. Lock him up,after all we are first in incarceration worldwide. Even better than Saudis
