There's too much panicky nonsense going on today on DU. And yesterday. And so on and so on.

I find panic to be very boring.

Panic has its place in life, but this ain't it.

Just sayin’.

court of law

You trust her to be your president but you don't trust her to debate?

We just have to scream over the post-debate media narrative if necessary.

Absolutely no chicken little-ing allowed!

She was masterful

seeing that disgusting piece of shit in real life😀

😂😂😂😂

the Felon's verbal diarrhea while still answering questions. Lord knows MSM moderators haven't thus far. If she can trigger him into a meltdown and then laugh at him, it'll be glorious.

and decent men - and millions of young voters

And the fact that Kamala will be judged differently by the MSM than Dump.

That would be everyone she has ever come in contact with, literally. More misogynistic?
Would need to see the data on that one. But as I posted when she became the nominee, we in California know her best. And we're not worried.

😂😂😂

But he WILL be prosecuted tonight, and he knows it.

• usually tosses bogus claims
• allows shills and grudge-bearers to be excluded
• may take months,
• has rules of evidence,
• requires evidence!
• is not owned and managed by tycoons,
• does not exist for ratings and ad money,
• is swept for bugs and dangerous substsances,
• can exclude ill or dangerous people or restrict/restrain them,
• and has an armed bailiff.

and humiliated them - just saying

Just deferent rules.
Lies and character assassination allowed.

I demand the lasso of truth.

Taking a break from fretting over what Kamala Harris might do because being pleasantly surprised by Harris and Walz is a new and welcomed habit. Like the energy.

Then why do I have an impending feeling of doom?

and are relieved when things go well.

sorta, but sorta serious, too.

After all, I'm one of those who finds it easier to predict defeat and be pleasantly surprised when I'm proven wrong, than it is to predict victory and be devastated when I'm proven wrong.

The saying I always remember is: "Always be a pessimist, that way you're never disappointed."

....involves a toxic and abusive player. Hang in there!

Had 2 teeth pulled a couple days ago. Relaxation will not be a problem.

This isn’t her first rodeo. She will be great and I can’t wait to watch!

Will Kamala be bringing her fly?

Looks like he's itching to have a go at poopy pants...

😂😂😂

(From The Fly.)

I think there will be fun, pleasure, and merriment for all.

Doubtful.

Kamala is a seasoned prosecutor, arguing her case professionally in an adversarial position is something she's had decades of experience doing

This isn't going to be a debate, Donald Trump is about to get the butt whopping his dad should've given him when he was little

I'm more worried about getting the popcorn machine cleaned out and setup (forgot to do it this weekend ) before my guests arrive!

This is going to be the most enjoyable 'debate' we've ever seen!

😀

The drums beating “Did she do enough? Did she answer about policy changes? Why didn’t she mention (blank)? Is she afraid to? Did she introduce herself since nobody knows her?”

Meanwhile he flings poo and makes incoherent noises and the response is little more than embarrassed laughter.

That said, I’m not saying a thing they haven’t thought of. I’m ready to cheer her to victory.

He will be entertaining his MAGA base with constant insults and lies.

I hope Harris is well-prepared to sting him with a few zingers of her own, like "There's no fool like an old fool" or "I don't know whether I should respond to his incoherent gibberish or throw him a banana"...

how in the world did we get to this point?? Only in 'Merica.......

but, i'm still taking a klonopin beforehand!

it's not so much that trump is an insane psychopath but that the media will not report it

I wonder if she'll pull out the withering "Are you DONE?" after a blast of word salad. A split screen will show him yelling and pinwheeling his arms.

He's going to be one more blustering bad guy with a gang behind him to her. She won't feel any need to make nice and she won't feel any fear, she's faced a lot worse--TFG, after all, is stupid.

Harris is competent. She will not step on her tongue. The right wing will try to pick things out of context or say she smiles too much or smiles too little or they didn't like how she was dressed, but don't worry. He's stupid, she's not stupid, and both will show.

than anything else

Her common decency, thoughtful nature and love for the American people will be plain to anyone not blinded by ignorance and hatred.

She's assertive, even-tempered, compassionate and knowledgeable--a natural leader.

I'm not the least concerned about Kamala's performance tonight.

I won't be watching the pre-debate sideshows or the post-debate analyses. None of us should need a weatherman to tell which way the wind blows.

She worked in the same office as KH.

...but rather the post-debate spin. And the sanewashing of TCF.

They cannot spin this one😀

VP Harris is one of the few people I'd bet on without looking at the sheet. From my chair, tonight is an afterthought.

Tomorrow morning though, I'm expecting to read dramatic pronouncements such as 'Trump didn't shit himself on camera... could this be his time?' or "VP Harris didn't raise anyone from the dead or turn wine into bottled water! Is she really all that?' from the My-Brain-Is-Half-Full demographic.

In other words, he'll buffoon his way through a performance, and VP Harris will make rational, sound, cogent points and counterpoints of policy. My only surprise would be is if that doesn't in fact, happen.

In the VP to humiliate that racist moron. That isn't my concern.

I truly, honestly, believe, not as a euphemism, that TSF could go up on stage tonight and do nothing but fart into his microphone and the news media will praise him as a genius and no matter what Harris says or does the news media will absolutely trash her without mercy.
I believe this without hesitation.

If she laughs at him, that's just a bonus.

Television "debates" are designed to benefit television. They are not debates.

moment like Joe’s shut up something like ‘what a weird answer ‘😂😀

I have no doubt

Brilliant, calm and focused, versus whatever ugly insanity the orange nutcase presents.

Repeat this 30 seconds dialog at the first words of Trump's insane words:

The Debate will instantly be OVER ‼️
GUARANTEED !!

https://m.

I keep seeing Jeff Sessions trembling and stammering in front of her every time I think of the debate. Personally? I got 40% odds she pushes him to dropping the n word. Regardless of whether or not that happens, beginning tomorrow the bottom drops out from under him and within a week, he’s 10 behind. From my lips to god’s ears right? But dems me predictions, nonetheless.

Let’s go Dems.
Ithe media think they make up the story. It’s not like that.

The moderators will try to "both sides" everything and won't call out Trump's bald-faced lies.

....and I'm a bit traumatized by last time....

I hope Kamala has been prepped to not just take it, or to try and be professional. This is gonna be a slugfest, and she needs to hit back, and HARD. Too many old school political strategists do not recognize that old approaches will not work.

a more brilliant insight has never been made...

A fearless fucking natural

Does her homework and then destroys you with a smile on her face.

He's a moron, such a disgusting display. Please lock him away

Ding dong , down he goes
This is what I’ll be singing when this is over

Now we need to get out the vote
Too good

👍🏼❤️

Be like Malaise

Last night was fun.
One of the most hilarious moments was when the VP reminded him that 16 Nobel prize economists warned about Trump's economic plans.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-economy-nobel-prize-winners-letter-inflation-warning/
His response was that he attended the Wharton School of Finance.
Of course he does not have an MBA from Wharton and read for an undergraduate degree. His family’s comments on how he got the degree are eye opening.
He is such a fraud.

I laughed out loud.

I'm wearing my "Childless Bird Lady for Kamala" sweat shirt today just to celebrate.

😀
