These people disagree with you, but what do they know, right?

Maher said he agreed with FBI chief Christopher Wray that, "white supremacy is a threat ... when it becomes connected to violence."
That's some real good detective work there.

My phone went off this morning with the virtual debate news, and then around four minutes later the news about Trump dropping out.

What could possibly be his reasoning other than A) He thinks this plays into Biden's strategy of saying Trump mishandled the pandemic or B) He doesn't want to be easily muted?

Didn't watch a second of last night's debate, but I think it's hilarious that "the winner" is reported differently based on which echo chamber you stick your head into. Why even have debates? Nobody's mind is going to change. That would involve them admitting they were wrong or their "team" is wrong, and the chances of that happening are about as realistic as Trump showing humility.

Best line I've heard about the debate so far: "People need to stop attacking the fly. It is Pence's only black friend."

It's just spouting lines, answering the question you want to answer instead of what you're asked, etc. It's garbage.

I don't think I realized Obama was such an interrupting dick too.

I was waiting for someone to say this is all Obama's fault! :D

Obama-Romney were basically even the first 2 events.

McCain-Obama look even through all 3, en toto.

I wonder what other graphs we can compare to that one to maybe find some correlation? When did Twitter, Facebook, etc. all take off? Cable news wars? And so on.

There's got to be a trigger there somewhere, right?

Awesome.

Post election we're either going to get more riots or more Oklahoma City type bombings.

Neither one of those assholes is worthy of being the manager at Taco Bell let alone running the U.S.

Can we just invoke the 25th for both Trump and Biden? :D

Neither will accept the results of the election. Biden is out here openly telling reporters that voters don't deserve to know where he stands on issues, and Trump...I mean, where do I start that list?

It doesn't matter who wins, we lose.
