    Conventional knowledge is that it’s in Harris’s advantage to not give him another chance, even though she’d probably trounce him. He’s mostly just afraid of her after being bullied back effectively for the first time on stage.

    I cried laughing when he took the rally size bait. It’s a shame we won’t get more of that, lol

        She invited the American public to watch one of his weird rallies and watch how his small crowds leave early due to exhaustion and boredom.

        He could not help himself and refused to answer the next debate question spending all of his time talking about how big his rallies were, how Harris’ rallies were small and fake.

        He ended it with, and I have to preface this with the fact that this is a real thing that happened and not hyperbole I’m using for comedic effect, talking about some unhinged and completely baseless conspiracy about immigrants stealing and eating peoples pets.

            If I had the chance to call myself in 2016, I don’t think my past self would believe half the shit I’d say.

              Dasus: Hey future me. So, how did Hillary’s first and second terms in office go?

              Future Dasus: Yeah… about that.

              Dasus: No. Oh no. Dammit. There are that many stupid people voting that trash into office? Man, where is a good old fashioned plague when you need one? /s

              Future Dasus: You’re not gonna believe this…

          talking about some unhinged and completely baseless conspiracy about immigrants stealing and eating peoples pets.

          The fact that he was so easily riled up and went immediately off script with such wild baseless improv, only to get fact-checked by the moderator, was glorious to watch. His handlers advisors must have broken the sound barrier face-palming through that.
