    1. he’s had a mock life….the drunk at the end of the bar you either knock out by the end of the night, or give a ride home to. Depends on the night. Nobody says let’s run this sick twisted waste of life for president. In a bar. Nobody says that….in a bar

    1. Not a big Trump fan , but trump is sharp as a take compared to Biden .
      Biden seems to be the one babbling incoherently probably because he has alzheimers disease.
      Shame on his handlers for putting Biden in the position he is in .
      I feel sorry for Biden , he seems like a nice old man

    1. @Ariki Royal of course not. It is stuck in the dark. Do you see long dark shadows too on your ceiling? Maybe need to check yourself in to a padded cell sweetheart. Sure sounds like you need help.

    2. @suziestube brown sweat love, I’m trapped in a strange spacetime zone, strange light, strange sounds. I can see our children with their weird Blue skulls.

    3. @Ariki Royal LOL…again little one, go back to school to learn to spell, heh? Even your attempt at descriptions falls short-developmental issues perhaps? Would certainly explain the deficit-ie: brainwashing…Thanks again for the laugh. Always a few in this tiny group and you at least aced that much. Should be proud. LOL!!

  1. In fairness, how much practice does it take when you have no platform and all you’re capable of is empty allogations and insults.

    1. So true he’ll promise a 200 percent tax cut and call Joe a stupid pee pee head, like a 3rd grader running for student counsel

  2. Remember trump having mock interviews to prepare himself for Mueller? They had to abandon them because he couldn’t do it without lying. He ultimately refused to be interviewed of course.

  3. “Because you’d be in jail.” Sounds like something Joe Biden should say. And unlike Donald Trump he would not be lying.

    1. Biden lies every day just watch the videos but youre not emotionally intelligent enough to want to watch the clips good try though xD

    1. Obama was a traitor in the worse sense. Obama / Biden coward down to Iran and sent them millions of American dollars. Then on national television Obama subserviently bends down to kiss a sultan’s ring. Obama denounces God by stating that America is not a Christian Country and refuses to wear the American Flag on his lapel. Bill Clinton as governor has a twelve year sexual affair with Jen Flowers.Then (as a sitting president) defiles the Oval Office and does the imported cigar up the who Ha trick( with Monica ). You democratic morans invited Bill Clinton to speak about the morality of Joe Biden? PLease give us a breaks hypocrites! Get off your better than thou soapboxes.

    2. ArikimRoyal is ridiculing Biden for sheltering in place during a pandemic. Not nice! Biden is very healthy and doing fine now, and hasn’t been sheltering for a while.

    3. @Sally F Tell me that when we see Bidens old frail butt spacing out during the debates. He is being spoon fed right now but on stage? it is just him and Donald J. Trump with no Kamama to wipe the drool off Bidens chin. However I am sure his mask will catch most of it.

    4. @rik rob When the dust clears , only Trump will be standing. Dementia Joe (the rat) will run back to his hidey hole basement. Then we will see who is weak minded in the DEBATES! Republicans CAN’T WAIT! When Joe Biden has no one to spoon feed him lines. Trump will prove then who has the quick wit and mindset to carry on at the White House. That is if Dementia Joe don’t make excuses to chicken out!

  4. T rump’s replies are not witty they are childish and stupid. If they have any mass appeal that only indicates mass stupidity.

    1. Greg, you nailed that one. We are trying to get through this shambolic consequence of the US electorate’s collective inability to grapple with the complex reality of this world using reason and the better angels of our humanity. Vote Blue or turn out the lights.

    1. Larry L I was wanting Hillary Clinton locked up and I’m not locked up. I’ll tell you who’s getting locked up. Joe Biden’s base. His voters are rioting and looting and assaulting but he government is locking them up. Good.

    2. @Robert Alan Another irrelevant reply. Bidens base? Where have you been dude? Clinton was never found guilty of anything honey-they investigated four separate times, and only wasted taxpayer money doing it. They found zero, other than she used her personal email server for some gov business. The rest was conspiracy theory garbage proven false many, many times.

    1. @albion king Everyone is racist or is tempted by racism but Trump has always nurtured his and is only apologetic about his when the mike is on.

    2. @Xen but it is a hoax.the disease exists, but the panic sold is a hoax. Average death age for covid is 82. So 95% of the population or more doesnt need to be concerned.
      If you believe the virus was gonna magically disappear, then you are a child who can’t tell when an adult is prioritizing calm over panic. Your democratic leaders even urged people to go out and mingle after trump was talking about lockdowns. Clearly, the dems thought it was a hoax as well.

    3. @rik rob No one sold a panic. You’re lying. From where did you get the information that the average age for death by Covid is 82? Link please, or you’re a liar again. Why do you think 95% of the population doesn’t need to be concerned? Even if your “82” figure was correct, “average” isn’t “only”. If I’ve ever said Covid was magically going to disappear it was tongue in cheek, unlike Trump, who, like you, is an habitual liar. I don’t recall any Democratic leader urging people to “go out and mingle after trump was talking about lockdowns”. Please provide evidence that that happened……..or you’re a liar. Better yet, learn to tell the plain, unvarnished truth. I’m betting you can’t do it.

    1. I’m sure he is lying again and has had or will have mock debates. Wants to act like he doesn’t need them. More macho BS.

    1. You’re vote is so much irrelevant my friend.just no way you can fight God’s servant (Trump) and win.am ashamed of you all and MSNBC

    2. @Lisa Zao that’s pretty much why you’re having a dog face as your pp because you see things like dogs

    1. I’m sure he is lying again and has had mock debates. Wants to act like he doesn’t need them. More macho BS.

    1. @Mark Zeigler It will backfire on him. Trump screams nonsense in a Hitlerian fashion. Joe is a gentleman who knows how to get his point across. I believe he can deescalate this divisive madness we’ve been living through for the last 3 1/2 years.

    2. It won’t be like 2016 where he just insult Hilary. Donnie will be asked to defend his policies and he just can’t brush it away with claiming its fake news. Joe Biden can get under his skin easily by bring up his lies.

    3. @L S “Joe knows how to get his point across”
      Oh really?
      “Look, fat, here’s the thing…”
      “Then you should vote for Trump…”
      ” All men and women are created equal…you..you you know the thing”
      “If you don’t vote for me, you ain’t black”
      Etc.

      Yeah, he sure gets a point across alright
