DU won't let me down!

I am really happy about going on a cruise next week, BUT I will be out to sea with no internet access during the debate! I am counting on DU to provide a fair review of the debate, which I can consult when we pull into shore on Sept 11. (I don't trust MSM, many of which have already composed their reviews. 😏 If Trump takes a snooze during the debate, he will be reported by MSM as "relaxed and confident." If Harris instructs Trump to stop stalking her, she will be reported as "oversensitive and whiney." ) I know I can count on y'all,

so thank you in advance!

If Trump takes a snooze during the debate, he will be reported by MSM as "relaxed and confident."

If Harris instructs Trump to stop stalking her, she will be reported as "oversensitive and whiney."

And what is your source for this?

many of which have already composed their reviews.

Apologies for the confusion. I was predicting MSM future actions based on past behavior, in a sarcastic manner. It has been frequently observed that MSM appears to bend facts to conform to prefabricated story lines. I have a suspicion that, like prewritten epitaphs stored in newsrooms, some debate reviews are already in the can. And based on an apparent "Trump rules, Harris drools" algorithm, I am guessing that many reviews will excuse Trump and diss Harris. But my crystal ball could be clouded, so who knows? 🔮
