September 10, 2024 Presidential Debate Thread. (Insert snarky subtitles here.)

I know we disagree on a lot of topics but the one topic that I think everyone wanted to hear the most about was the economy and that mostly seemed to get blitzed over.

Really felt like Trump could and should have pressed more on that. Housing is less affordable, groceries less affordable, energy costs have ran out of control. The economy and immigration were the two areas he could’ve made better points on but he didn’t address one enough and didn’t frame the other well.

Did the leftist moderators ever get around to asking her about her plan to hike taxes on capital gains or unnecessarily raise corporate taxes to a globally non competitive level or initializing the wealth tax (wealth redistribution scheme) or raising death taxes?

Never came up that I saw. I did take a short break to slam my head in the door a few times though so maybe I missed it. Also they never asked her how she planned to pay for all the things she was promising to pay for.

What would you ask and why would you care about the answer in the context of deciding our next POTUS?

Oh gee I don’t know, the entire failure of the SS from top to bottom? Protecting the President seems like an important issue. How would they handle it going forward? What steps would they take?

You know better.

ABC controlled the narrative and apparently those issues weren’t important.

Their appointments haven’t handled much right in their time in office.

If anybody is deciding their vote based on the candidate's plan for the SS, that person needs to lose their right to vote. JFC

But she did get to buy some votes by throwing out the $50,000 new business subsidy and the $25,000 first time home buyer carrot. I forget who the $6,000 gift was for.

Raise taxes, sell more debt, or print more money. That’s how those things have to be paid for. Unless they subdivide Yosemite and the Smokeys.

You’re a dumbass per usual. One of the most important events in the last 20 years deserves a mention during a debate, you dumb ****.

It’s a perfect example of government malfeasance . You, as a supposed libertarian, should jump all over that.

No one is deciding their vote on what race Kamala calls herself, yet that’s ok to bring up? But the former president almost dying isn’t?


JFC indeed.

Give her a chance and she may sell Yosemite and the Smokeys to the Chinese. Wouldn’t that be a hootenanny!

Rumors are flying around that she wore a pair of Nova H1 earphones abs getting the answers relayed. Check out her earrings and the Novas and decide for yourself. It’s all over tik tok with live video of her and the actual Novas to compare.

So what if she did? Her answers weren't that great. She didn't win the debate because she whipped out clear and convincing responses. She won because she was debating a raging idiot.

I have never heard any libertarian give any priority to the secret service. Ron Paul called it "welfare" and refused it when he ran for POTUS. People who don't understand libertarianism really need to stop talking about it.

No idea why you're so aggressive. You decided to be a smartass and then said something that wasn't smart at all. Now you're calling me a dumbass, which is a pretty good strategy because these posts are probably going to get deleted and then nobody gets to see this in your post history.

No you’re being your usual contrarian self just looking to argue, especially about Trump. The lack of basic competence in a government agency which almost got Trump killed was worth a mention. None of the other bs the leftist moderators brought up tonight was worth arguing about for you, but for some reason the attempt on a former president’s life is just too much.

I’ll let people decide who’s the dumb one.
