Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

“We don’t have to discuss it…” because the answer makes me look bad
Ooh, this one's an L for Donald
Trump is clearly starting to get rattled. He's going off the rails.
"Weaving" from abortion to... student loans? Boss at the beach? What the fuck is he talking about?
Yeah he lost the thread there. He's going into ramble mode.
She is stomping his ass.
At the 20min mark, I would say it's roughly tied with Harris gaining momentum I think. She's getting stronger in her delivery. She's not put Trump on tilt yet though.
She opened with an actual opening argument. And she keeps bringing the receipts. Over and over. He's completely reactive to her.
Yep. She's controlling this.
And he hates it.
She’s on point and he looks bored and lost.
there is no state where it is legal to kill a baby after it is born
It's crazy that they need to say that.
Right?
Holy fuck the moderator fact checked trump on late stage abortion
Honestly Trump did pretty well with that response on abortion. Riddled with lies, but he was actually coherent.
Harris's response absolutely crushed him. Also props to the moderator for calling Trump's bullshit about executing babies immediately.
His coherence was borderline on that one. You could feel him fighting the urge to "weave."
Yeah, "coherent" is relative with him.
"There is no state where it's legal to kill a baby after it's born."
thank god they actually said that this time.
She needs to call him weird.
Trump getting rattled, and starting to slur. His meds are already wearing off
He's cooked.
The fact-checkers are gonna need a lot of coffee tonight.
Tonight? Oh god these guys already have 6 hours of work and we're not even 20 minutes in.
I wish someone would ask Trump what a tariff is and how China pays it. They just let him get away with it.

Trump whipping out the lie about killing babies after they're born.
And INSTANT smack down by the moderator! Rare debate moderator W
Trump going on and on with racist immigration views. Racism is all the republicans have at this point. Be scared of the immigrants! They took our jerbs!
Here comes the post-birth abortion lies.
I mean is it racism though. New York isn't having any fun with the Venezuelans right now
Sounding awfully weird right now, Donald.
Harris is winning this. She's legitimately stomping all over him. I think Trump is starting to get rattled.
Ohhh, just called her a Marxist! LOL!
Marxist! Drink.
I'm telling you for your own health, stop drinking now, or else you're gonna be dead from liver failure before the 90 minutes are even up!
Is there a bingo card? I haven't looked for it.
Good hit by Kamala about selling chips to China to benefit their military. That’s something Trump voters can easily understand.
Agreed.
