Well... so much for muting mics between responses.

again biden approved nordstream2. sorry europeans apparently your governments are powerless against bidens policies for you.

They’ll execute the baby. lmfao

Dunno if anyone has brought this up but Trump basically never looked at Harris. Even had his face turned her direction and just looked at the moderators. The only time he looked at her was when he was forced to at the start where she went to shake his hand. Dude hates her so much.

We’ve been waiting 8 years for a better plan from you. “Concepts” OMG

This is too stupid for me .... I turned if off and will just watch the highlights tomorrow

And this is supposed to be a contest for leadership of the most powerful, most developed, most modern nation in the world?

The worst part of all this is that everyone on the planet will be affected by what Americans will decide on .... and that is an absolutely scary idea.

ABC is just letting Trump ramble now.

Oh thank god, closing statements. My fingers are getting tired.

now their eating the pets

just to be clear. trump currently does not know who is president of the US.

Wtf was that rant about Biden selling the country to Ukraine?? lol

Trump when asked who should win in Ukraine: "I want the war to stop, I want to save lives. People being killed by the millions. It's so much worse than the numbers that you're getting, which are fake. We have to give them $250 billion because we don't ask Europe who are at a greater risk because Biden and YOU don't have the courage to ask Europe like I did with NATO and they paid up, which is why they don't like me as much as weak people. You look at what's happening. They pay lots less. They should be forced to equalized. I want to get the war settled. I know both Zelensky and Putin well and they respect me. They don't respect Biden. Why would you respect him? He hasn't called Putin in two years. This is a war that's dying to be settled. When I win, when I'm president-elect, I'll get them together. That war would have never happened. When I saw Putin after I left, because this country has gone to hell, when I saw him setting up soldiers, I thought he was going to negotiate but he wasn't because of Biden and millions are people are dead and it will be WWIII and where is Biden? We don't even know if he is a president. They threw him out of our campaign like a dog. Biden doesn't know he's alive."

Trump when asked again: "I think the war should finish. Negotiate a deal. People's lives are destroyed."

Harris finally tells him he's not running against Biden.

What the fuck is this I rebuilt the military shit he keeps spouting about I have no idea where that's coming from. Even by Trump's normal standards this is confusing for me.

Look at how good Democrats are at hiring competent staff

Donald Trump while talking about how many shitty staffers he had to fire

oh my god. he said his statements that he lost 2020 was sarcasm on his part. I mean. I mean. oh man. this guy.

Trump on the peaceful transfer of power and January 6th: "I told people to be peaceful and patriotic when they were rioting and no one was killed on their side, but Ashley Babbit was shot by an evil cop and the rioters were treated badly. What about the killers coming over the border? She was the border czar, but she doesn't want to be called that because she's embarrassed about it. When are they going to be prosecuted? They're coming from all over the world, not South America and crime is down all over the world. When are they going to be prosecuted? What about the people who burned down Minneapolis? What about the people who took over a large amount of Seattle!"

Moderator: "Do you regret what happened?"

Trump: "I just showed up to make a speech and I went to Nancy Pelosi and the mayor of D.C. and I said- it wasn't a riot by me- and I said I'd like to give you the national guard and they both rejected me and her daughter has a tape saying she was responsible for what happened. It was their fault because she was responsible for security."

I just heard Taylor Swift just endorsed Harris, is this true?

Nice. Harris: "World leaders laugh at you including military people I've talked to who work with you." (Again, a paraphrase.)

If Trump is holding back on stopping the Russian/Ukraine war just as some sort of dangled treat, then we don't need him.

As a human being, if he has that control he should exercise it, no matter the outcome of the election.

And besides, he never answered whether he wanted Ukraine to win or not.

How can they open his mic?

Mods were weak sauce, what's the point of muted mics if they just keep turning it back on when he interrupts?

When this is over, I wanna see a stat on who spoke/was on camera more. The press plays right into his hands. Asking him to clarify only gets him more speaking time. That's why he "wins" debates, because he monopolizes media time. She is doing a great job attacking him, but he gets the last word.

ABC is unreal
