Mfer literally quoted Orban. Bruuuuh
“trash says I smell nice!”
Hahaha
I didn’t bother.
I already know how it’s going to go no matter who wins. Everyone gets poorer except the wealthy.
Being ignorant doesn’t rlly help, I feel more hopeful after watching the debate tbh.
Well, respectfully, some of us have bills, and there’s nothing worse for my hope in either of these candidates than my grocery, electrical, and medical bills.
Your grocery and medical bills were talked about.
That’s all they ever do.
Say things.
So get involved in politics and do something about it instead of burying your head in the sand and whine?
Totally, man.
It’s entirely my fault.
Don’t indulge in self-blame, take action! :-)

Harris: “You shouldn’t have to fly to another state just to get the medical attention you need.”
MAGA nutheads: “SHE HATES FLYING WITH POOR PEOPLE”
Holy shit, the brain gymnastics some people do on the net is astonishing.
Saw most of it. Actually surprised that fat orange held himself together for so long. Hes still not worth the trouble though
He was coherent but clearly uncomfortable, usually he’s pretty confident.
No. And i am tired that lemmy is 90% posts about the US while they are less then 30℅ of the user.
Sorry but I live in the US. You are allowed to post too my friend.
This post has 199 upvotes and 18 downvotes, or 91.7% and 8.3% respectively. In other words, people want to see that kind of content, so that seems fair to me. I don’t expect lemmy to care about my local elections, I go to local websites for that. International social media naturally care about things that will affect most of their users.
It’s the Internet during US elections.
Even outside the elections, it is far too US-centric. I mean, it is lemmy.world after all.
I’m sorry if I sound more pissed off than I actually am, but it is indeed quite a bit annoying.
So post non-US centric content.
Yes and the us runs a good chunk of it
You and me both, but I think it’s up to us to publish content that’s not us-centric.
Exactly, it’s an open platform everyone can participate
Lol take a look at the world my friend.
Unfortunately, the fate of the world kinda rests on the outcome of this election. From Ukraine and Israel at a minimum, to severe climate change and WW3 at the extreme end. I hate it too, but this is just too big to ignore.
I wonder if there can be more than one important issue effecting our future at a time…
Pick any issue and both Trump and Kamala are on the wrong side of it.
A 20% tariff on imported goods?
More tax breaks for the rich?
Come on man. Harris is against those.
So being for a tax break for the rich is wrong. And being against a tax break for the rich is wrong? What other option even is there?
Nope definitely not why would I do that to myself
I watched it, and I usually skip debates because the summaries are more meaningful (it’s usually just used for fluffy sound bites). This one just felt… Different? She baited the fuck out of him. There will be so many memes.
And yeah the moment he said the great Orban I fucking lost it, more at than the dog eating migrants and the post birth abortions. Like, Harris can’t necessarily call that “ally” an asshole fascist but like, those of us in the know, know.
Switched over to Fox to see how they were going to spin it.
Hannity was like: “The moderators are lefties. It was 3-1 .”
Then he brought on Rubio, and I clicked away.
Only losers blame the ref.
i was working so, no.
Probably for the best
Me and a couple friends made a little party out of it. I started Uni a couple weeks ago so we haven’t been able to talk hardly at all, so we made sure to clear our schedules so we could laugh at Trump for a couple hours together
This cheeto is COOKED
I saw a minute or so of it because someone else had it on, but I wasn’t interested in watching, I’ll catch a summary online later, or will look at this thread now and then Will try not to reload obsessively. I need to protect my fragile brain from this crap ;).
Trump: makes incorrect claim
Moderator: Actually there is no evidence that happened
Trump: well I saw it on TV! Someone said it on TV! Someone wouldn’t just go and say something on TV if it wasn’t true!
Shouldn’t the president of the country have a bit of higher standard of evidence than “I saw someone say it on TV”?
Worse is my coworkers ranting about how biased the moderator was
This was one of the many frustrating things about his Presidency. So many times he was reporting on what “someone” was saying was going on in the government. Motherfucker, you’ve got a big slice of the government working for you. Why don’t you find out from them what’s going on?
Because when he does that, they tell him things he doesn’t like to hear (the truth).
He spent a lot of his presidency watching Fox News and ignoring his briefings. Staff figured out pretty quickly that he likes pictures and compliments and tried to use those to help him get through minutes of material.
Especially since he’s probably the person who said it on TV. But, to answer your question, of course the president should have a higher standard, and the people should hold him to it. For some reason this asshole is still around despite being a living parody.
“But I saw it on TV!” says the man currently saying untrue things on TV.
Someone wouldn’t just go and say something on TV if it wasn’t true!
Not to mention the guy who popularized the term “fake news” back during his first campaign.
Even called him a strongman like it was a good thing.
Seriously
