  1. America is

    23 in education.
    37 in healthcare.
    34 in raising family index.
    No high-speed train.
    Highest number of homeless people.
    Highest number of incarcerated people.
    78% of people live paycheck to paycheck.

    Stock market is not economy of Americans! Where 90% of money belongs to top 10% of the population, it’s wallet for the rich.

    Let’s talk like adults, instead of name calling.

    I have left the proof on my playlist, if you would like to check!

    Let’s make our country better together. . . .

    1. @owen619notsocool yes most countries don’t surpass 2.0% but countries with the biggest economies generally do and alot of NATO member states don’t really spend that much money on defence because they already get their defence from the alliance. Russia china and india all spend more than 2%

    2. @macbeth moray bail out Republican states year after year. My lord you should quit watching corporate media. It has rotted your brain.

    3. By all means if your so ashamed and think another country is doing better, feel free to leave. The smug entitlement from this clip bc they think they have a gotcha moment is wrong. This is clearly causing division and I hope we can all find a middle ground and put our differences aside. Things are on a path I fear we as a nation cant recover from. You complain now….your in for a rude awakening.

    1. @420BudNuggets 🤣🤣🤣 they’re not running for president, Biden is, it’s going to be an epic Tsunami 😎🇺🇸 FLIP THAT SENATE!

    2. Uniquely Lily they’re not running for pres directly but they expect Biden to have “medical issues”

  2. That was the reason that Trump chickened out of the 2nd Debate, so Trump will now chicken out of the 3rd Debate (but NBC will reward Trump with a simultaneous Town Hall for it).

    1. @Victor Allen Jones ..but we’ll have a stupid effing wall for 🤡PREZ to put his monument to himself on instead of badly needed investment in infrastructure.

      Oh, and a red, chinese made croMAGAnon ballcap🤦

    2. America won’t learn. It is going to burn like ancient Rome. There is no coming back from this. Heartbreaking to see.

    1. @Lloyd Edwards Yeah a sound proof or at least resistant booth would do. To keep Biden safe from Covid at least.

    2. He’s gonna look like a gulping fish out of water. Kinda like his balcony scene? 😆 Wonder how those old lungs are really doing, post-Covid… he sounds hoarse all the time now. He brought it on himself.

    3. I wonder if it would be possible ( with rude & crude trump yelling insults in his ear…so so difficult)
      for Biden to somehow…
      👉completely ignore 👈dt.. and just focus…and ☆answer the questions as they come to him
      ☆don’t rise to dt’s bait
      ☆don’t answer…or respond to anything dt would say
      ☆Just clearly answer Biden’s & Harris’ platform’s plans in context of the questions …and that’s it….

  3. No need for a debate. There is nothing Trump could say to get my vote. He has nothing, he is rude, and who needs it?

    1. @RocknRobyn56 and never forget cover up for his son, and rise taxes 60% because that is his plan. Do your homework.

    2. @Sorange G You need to do YOUR homework. He’ll raise your taxes if you make over $400,000 a year. You don’t. So stop worrying, and get your facts straight ya twit.

    3. @Donaldo That’s all that the corrupt media pushes. I’m voting for President Trump. Biden should be in prison right now.

    1. It might not matter or work. if they are within shouting distance of each other, trumps mic might be off, but Bidens isnt and will picup on the side ranting. in the first debate. a mute button would have hardly prevented Biden from hearing the yapping from the one side. you, trying to forma sentance with someone trying to talk over you is hard. let me quote “shut up man!”. but im stocked with snacks for the debate

    2. Yeah – I turned the first debate off after fifteen minutes on DJT interruptions. This one is looking forward to.

  4. Let’s hope he walks out during the debate so that the entire World sees him as the worthless coward he really is.

    1. @kathi Ugh, I don’t. Oh but if he loves this country so much, he “may have to leave it” if he loses? 🤣 What a clown car crash he is.

    1. If there is another debate there is only thing to say – stand back and stand by – it could be exciting.

  5. They are going to mute his mic …. LOL like you won’t be able to hear him screaming across the room through Joes mic !!

  6. He is the worlds dumbest criminal hello, impeachment tax’s pretty much he’s whole crew got caught up he’s hiding behind the presidency

    1. Between Trump and Hunter Biden, I would take a chance on Hunter anytime. The unknown will probably be more promising than the last lousy 4 years! Can’t take anymore of his whining!

    1. worse than wasted 4 years, he has dished most every loyal American; he fired or threatened or bashed so many honest, truthful Americans that served our country well. Trump also called every dirty name in the book on his enemies, (which is everyone in the world, almost).

    2. @Ash Roskell Exactly. The walls are closing in for old Donald. He knows it, inside, and his erratic + desperate behavior (despite his attempts at bravado) belies him. Tick tock, two weeks. Cheers to his comeuppance – just desserts, and to the disintegration of his facade of power.

    3. @Clipazine Let’s not count any chickens before they hatch. I don’t assume either outcome til Election Day returns. Plan for both scenarios.

    4. @Ash Roskell that is so funny uncover the truth?, like the truth about his son, how he got money and favor from another country when daddy was vice?

    1. @max sand, you’re right! tRump just NEEDS Jesus & by the way he doesn’t wear masks but still holds rallies, he (seems to also) WANT to see him… real soon! 😂😂
