Trump & Biden Enter Final Stretch After Debate That Lacked A ‘Game Changing Moment’ | MSNBC

Yamiche Alcindor, Jacob Soboroff, Jim Messina, and Michael Beschloss join Andrea Mitchell to break down the final debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden that presented sharp contrasts on policy, and false claims from the president on immigration, but lacked what Messina calls "a game changing moment" that would help an incumbent president currently trailing in the polls. Aired on 10/23/2020.

    1. @Suomy Nona paying Consulting fees and employee salary is actually not illegal. Just so you know. It’s not illegal. You can function in one capacity as an employee and function in another as a consultant. Check with your accountant. Everybody knows that. Time you did too.

    2. @Sparky Sparky It won’t take that long for Cy Vance to lock up Don the Con and his grifter gang. November, December, January 21… 3 months. I hope he takes the the whole grifter gang down. Who am I kidding, there’s no need to hope for a certainty.

  1. Are there any undecided voters at this point? Really? I voted straight blue the first day of early voting in Texas – lines were hours long.

    1. **GOD BLESS ALL THE PATRIOTS WHO WAITED IN LONG LINES TO VOTE!!!! THEY ARE DESIGNED TO STOP US FROM VOTING!! BUT YOU PERSISTED,,, YOU ARE AMERICAN HEROES!!!! NOW LET’S MAKE SURE EVERYONE ELSE GETS TO THE POLLS!! HELP OUR NEIGHBORS,, GET THEIR BALLOTS FILLED OUT,, CORRECTLY!!! VOTE FOR DECENCY,,, AND STOP THE MADNESS,, THE DEATH THREATS,, THE FEAR AND HATRED THAT TRUMP HAS BROUGHT US!**

    2. I voted early in Austin too. All Democrat and liberal local. A few candidates were republican with no opposition, so I skipped them. Republicans don’t care, so they’ll never get my support

  2. Giuliani is the devil’s advocate! He, like a vacuum cleaner, collects all kinds of rumors and gossip flying on a private jet around the world for the budget money of the Americans.

    1. @Keith Johnson – Shelby GT500 Where was the economy and unemployment rate four years ago? Where is economy now? How about the unemployment rate?

    2. **Rudy got caught with his pants down!!! HOW DUMB IS HE??? TO GET CAUGHT,, BY BORAT!!! Rudy ,, SOLD HIS SOUL AND HIS REPUTATION,,,, TO THE DEVIL,, TRUMP!!! VOTE FOR DECENCY!!! VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS!! I DID**

    3. No Game-Changing moment? My family has been in the energy industry for 40 years just outside of Pittsburgh. Joe asked Trump to put the video about banning/phasing out fracking on his web site. So I checked it today. I can’t believe it! How could Joe (and Kamala too in her debate) lie like that? And then fail to correct himself?
      Then I checked some of Joe’s record on race. I’m shocked again. I don’t like Trump’s personality, but he sure got a lot done for blacks. Joe has hurt the blacks.
      I’m changing my vote to Trump. No way I’ll vote for such a person.

    1. @Matthew W cause we are better human beings than them. we care, we love others for who they each are.
      while they blind themselves off from the rest of the human race .

    2. @Matthew W Absolutely, but the idea we should passionately isolate ourselves and win at any cost is the idea I’d like to reject. We might fear becoming a Sucker, a heel, a flat, but US is still good enough we shouldn’t worry about that.

    3. Dopatap I reject that too. But there has to be a middle ground. We should perfect our country in order to best help others. Not let the world mooch off us, bringing in excessive low skilled workers, hurting our economy and our own citizens in order to help. I honestly think we’d be a greater asset with my ideology.

    4. ​@Matthew W well, as to your Ideology belief,
      then set your mind into school , work hard in your studies. then set your goal once you enter college. take the courses that well benefit your Ideology.
      if your course is set into the political world of politics, as a future Senator in Congress as well in the Senate. once you gain that political experience .
      then set your goal being elected as President of the United States of America..
      who knows, you may be right up there next to the late great president Kennedy, President Lincoln, those two Presidents are forever immortal in America’s History Books.
      ================
      as for me, in honesty, I studied History & Religion during my two yrs of college.

    1. What about the lies about fracking? What about the lies about cages? I didn’t hear Joe’s answers.

    2. @Diana Oh Diana… does Mommy know you’re on the dial-up again.? Now get off so she can binge watch Real Housewives.

    3. @Charles Trump supporters with a low mentality like yourself are exactly why I’ve already voted for Biden ~that’s all I’ve got for you Jr, you’re dismissed
      Biden/Harris 2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌊🌊🌊

  3. It wouldn’t matter how well kids are being taken care of . There is no love on earth like that of your birth parents. This is sad all day. And u Republicans still stood behind him, knowing if it were your kids, you’d never let your kids out of your eyesight. I’m voting for those kids and for the covid families who lost love ones. Shame on you all.

    1. Trump/ DHS/ICE and Google have a brand spanking new contract to provide surveillance tech for the border. Meanwhile, Barr and the DOJ are involved in a last minute pre-election so-called “monopoly breakup” of Google.
      Child separation constitutes genocide under international law. When the US signs on to these agreements they become US law.
      They won’t go after Trump for violations of international law, because that will open a Pandora’s Box. Then we’ll have US officials lining up around the block like at a Star Wars premiere waiting to be indicted. (By the way, you’re going to need Star Wars to vaporize the nukes that DONALD RUMSFELD sold to North Korea. Maybe not if they only reach rhe West Coast. But the radioactivity could spread to Nebraska and Kansas.
      Rummy’s North Korea Connection What did Donald Rumsfeld know about ABB’s deal to build nuclear reactors there? And why won’t he talk about it? https://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2003/05/12/342316/ )
      A Truth and Reconciliation Commission is what the US needs. Unfortunately Trump has only served to breathe new life into the Washington neoliberal/neoconservative consensus. Or so they think. Somehow they think once Trump’s gone, we’ll be free of crisis. Neoliberalism and all its institutions are in permanent crisis. Trump himself is a creature of neoliberal crisis. He even said so himself in so many words during the debate.

    2. Well said. We have already voted BLUE, 3 of us.
      The GOP, in D.C., has become a tRump cult of amoral, cold hearted sycophants. Caring only for themselves.

    3. Peter: My family are immigrants… Those parents are using their children as a way into the country. They could have immigrated legally. They could have left their children at home in the care of relatives. They could have picked a different ( easier ) country to immigrate to. Democrats think that everyone in the Republican party is white, old men. There are much more immigrants here that are voting for Trump than you realize. And for the Covid families… Trump is not to blame. I live in NY. Cuomo killed at least 5000 due to his democratic policies regarding nursing homes and Democrats want to blame that number on Trump. I BLAME Gov. Cuomo. And no, I am not white.

    4. How much did they take from Wall Street ( aka corporations ) ?
      Joe Biden = 57.7 million
      Donald Trump = 13.8 million

      Guess who is lying here about how much corporations have a stake in this election and/ or corporate GREED ( hint… its not the president)…

    5. @Joy Phillips wow I didn’t think I could find a greater republican moron but you have beaten all. Well done Joy or moron would be a better name. Now that you have had your say what about you just go back to sleep. No more moron,ok.

  4. It may not have had a game changing moment but it certainly looked like a flaming death spiral for Trump and the trolls on this site.

  5. Even when it’s complicated, kidnapping is still kidnapping. Who cares who built the cages, Trump put the kids in them.

    1. @John Edward the parents don’t want their children back. Believe it or not. They want their kids to stay in this country.

    2. @David Hale spot on… you are absoluatly right. Something the fake news will never say. Trump is winning and thank God and praise him. Clean out the swamp for good.

    3. @John Edward one questiin, are you brainwashed? Hahhahahahahaha fake news does it to you.. ahahahhhaha

    1. SiCKO trump has no feeling about anyone man woman or child, except perhaps his incestuous relationship with Ivanka. Even that I’m not sure of, he loves himself, God know why, he’s so evil, he loves evil, he practices evil. Vote him out, USA. Wishing all of you success, in voting trump out. from across the pond UK

  6. Where are the parents??? They know they have their kids!! They may have been moved…but this is so sad!!😢😱

    1. The parents were deported back to whatever situation they were running from there is a good possibility they’re now dead period or in a totally different region of the country they were from or completely different country that they were from. Oh and that a****** below us with the numbers nothing but a troll.

    2. they got deported kathleen where do you think they are….proable dead or removed again for the war torn countries they were in

  7. Trump’s constant “why didn’t you get it done” attack was weak because all it did was remind viewers that Trump hasn’t accomplished anything in 4 years.

    1. @rockymountainreseller Yes they are , not a single important one , just tiny defenceless states scared witless by the ‘ gang up on Qatar ‘ moves orchestrated by Jared Kushner and terrified by the way the Trump administration enables the Saudis and supplies restricted materiel for their adventures in Yemen . Worthless , transactional and very temporary .

    2. @wee huddy 4 Islamic countries counting Kosovo making historic peace agreements with Israel brokered by Trump. 3 Nobel peace prize nominations. Try not to let your liberal tears salt your dinner to badly. Trump is amazing.

    3. @Jose Fernandez …The media- academia- the entertaainment industry- facebook-twitter etc…. call this guy a racist every day –Like Nazi propaganist Joseph Goebbels said ” One lie is jus a lie but a thousand becomes truth”….
      So, Who is it Trump or Biden?….and do you vote for the racist?….https://youtu.be/jPUFwmZN9eo

    1. ” accuse your enemy of what you are doing as you are doing it” —Carl Marx
      The media- academia- entertainment ind- communications- etc…” Trump is Racist—our viwers are idiots…
      even if we show them this…they will still believe everything we say…https://youtu.be/jPUFwmZN9eo

  8. IF YOU WANT A BLUE WAVE THEN VOTE UP AND DOWN THE BALLOTS JOE BIDEN AND HARRIS 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

    1. lasay inchrist I voted all Blue today in person, in Texas.
      And. . . We got a tie!
      BIDEN 47%, TRUMP 47% — IN TEXAS ! ! !
