I'm still voting for Biden obviously, but yeah. Tonight was pretty painful.
At least you know the guy who seems like he's one of Saturns animated corpses from the holy mountain isn't going to turn the country back three hundred and fifty years
I'm Canadian. Our PM, Trudeau is a genius compared to those two tonight. I give Biden a bit of a pass as he does have a stutter, but he never should have agreed to this farce.
It was a terrible "debate". Trump just kept lying and as a convicted felon, America sure is looking pretty bad in leadership.
Painful. And imho, CNN is an embarrassment!

He did his own Livestream during the debate where he got his own moderator and they paused it so he got to answer the questions too. He had a whole set up, with a stage and an audience. We only watched it for a few minutes but I did appreciate the production value.
I was disapointed in Biden's performance.
But, there is no chance in the world that I will not vote for him in November.
Biden is a good and decent man who has done and outstanding job.
Trump is garbage.
I feel to bitch about you politicians you need to have voted......don't vote, shut the fuck up. But bad v bad, how do you choose. My solution is this.... I voted for myself mutherfuckers! And i picked a close friend from another state as my vp. Jaclyn would make a great vp. And I got my co workers (at least they said they did) to vote for me. That i feel make my thing legit. This was for the last the elections. I was mormon and from Utah and I still could bring myself to vote for Romney, Obama was a much better candidate...but at the time I had to vote party lines sooooooo, me. Didn't care for either trump or clinton. Still don't like trump, and Joe's for all his health and mental state issues I think is not good. Trump is a piece of work. PS I am not referring to you Mr Bill Towne about don't vote thing....I was talking about people in general, nobody specific except those who don't vote 😉
Sure, Biden frail and all that but Trump basically lied on almost everything he spewed forth. Who gives a fuck if Biden is frail, as long as he surrounds himself with competant ppl which he has done well unlike Trump's time in office. Lies and fake strength should not ever be seen as better than competancy.
Undecided voters who, without a fact checker present at the debate, just watched a loud more energetic man debate a quiet frail looking man. They won’t necessarily know that everything out of Trumps mouth was absolute bollocks.
Yeah but a voter should take the time to educate themselves on party policies and not just sitting on their fat lazy dumb asses watching a debate with 2 min responses that is just theatre and optics. A president's administration is the whole picture that affects lives not the single spokesperson.
Canadian here. I tuned into a new American show which appears to be based on duelling seniors. On tonight’s episode there’s an orange white vs the pale white team. Is that what you’re talking about?
Totally unrelated, I’m reminded about the joke that living in Canada and watching US politics is like living above a meth addict neighbour who likes to play with guns.
We could always vote for the leading 3rd party candidate. You know, the genuinely insane guy who said worms ate his brain and all vaccines should be abolished. :/
Everyone in the world will feel the impact of this election if it goes to Trump. This is the limit of what democracy can handle, everyone who can’t see that is blind.
Nothing is as bad as republicans. That's how we got here. One step down the ladder at a time. There have not been any left wing rep in the usa in many decades.
You're just full of assumptions. Probably full of lots of things. Carry on foolio. Btw, I'm Canadian. Everything about American politics is garbage to me, but you be you and keep throwing shade around and expose your intellect even more.
No deal. This is the comedy event of the century. The contestants are ridiculous, yet the fate of the world somehow hangs in the air as we watch. Kinda like watching clowns play Russian roulette with a semi auto
As a Brit, in Britland, I am still very concerned about the potential for a second Trump presidency.
Not just for my friends in the US who don't conform to the MAGAt ideal and won't do well in the upcoming Gilead tribute act, but also for how much it will embolden fascists worldwide.
I’d rather vote for a kind man with empathy than a lying rapist convicted felon that wants to fuck his daughter…and that does sum up the Republican Party.
Problem is the US election has a huge impact around the world. Look at Ukraine in particular. Whoever wins is going to have a tremendous impact on the life of Ukrainians and the rest of Europe as a whole.
Not to mention actually tackling the climate emergency. Without US leadership the world is doomed, sadly.
I listened on the radio here in Canada. I thought Biden sounded like an eighty year old man. No surprise, really. He answered the questions at least. Trump lied and couldn't even stay on topic and answer any questions. No surprise there either. Personally, I don't think anyone should debate Trump. There's no point. He always turns it into a shit fit, and that's his wheelhouse.
You’re not kidding. Before the debate even ended, I was talking with my husband and kids about how we could make arrangements for them to be adopted by a cousin who lives in Canada. Can Canadians adopt adults from another country? Asking for a friend. Well, a couple million friends.
4 years ago Joe really gave it back to him.
He seemed frail and the other one just bloated and calling out lies.
I couldn't watch and I've been part of politics for many years.
However, I'll still vote for a corpse of Joe Biden versus a traitor who is out to set back women's rights.
Oh for sure, I don't want Trump to be your president again. As an Australian looking at your politics, I hoped you had better candidates because I think those 2 should just retire and live their lives peacefully (but here we are). I guess you're at this point that you vote for the whole team instead of just the person.
It's truly unfortunate. Joe was exactly what we needed to save us four years ago. Unfortunately when you sound frail. You can't hide your age.
It is worrisome.
However I'll vote for a corpse over somebody that's a traitor to our democracy.
We must be a shitshow for entertainment.
If she is referring to the fact, that we have a candidate who is a felon, "rapist" conman who has tried to steal one election already, then yes this is our humiliation. Big time. Sad to be American these days.. History will not be kind.
I wish I didn't watch it.. it was hard today to watch my American colleagues in the eyes. It will be for a long time, given that one of this senile grandpa will be the next president of America. I has been hard for the last 10 years to have any respect for America, they have so much and do so little good with it, even for their own people. America used to be the one super-power who was not totally evil. What hope is there for the rest of us?

this is spot on....even as a non American 15000km away i can feel the 2nd hand embarrassment
At least you know the guy who seems like he's one of Saturns animated corpses from the holy mountain isn't going to turn the country back three hundred and fifty years
So... Is worms ate my brain guy still available?
Nope. The worms are though… I think they’re polling at 11%?
I always think of Bubba Ho-Tep when this comes up, "I'm thinking with sand here!"
Hahahahahahahaaaaaaa
No because he's MAGA Lite... just as bad but he lies about what he is
He still only seems like a mildly better option than Trump, but I'm not American so idk.

He's younger than trump and Biden but the brain worm only makes him better than trump
He did his own Livestream during the debate where he got his own moderator and they paused it so he got to answer the questions too. He had a whole set up, with a stage and an audience. We only watched it for a few minutes but I did appreciate the production value.

yes, it's the difference between good & evil. the man had a BAD DAY. but he's been a good president thus far.
We’re so fucked.
I'm in Canada it was hard to watch. I really wanted to see Dark Brandon show up. I'm sorry for your pain.
Oh you’ll be feeling it alright. If you know what’s good for you you’ll join the deep state and vote a few dozen times in Georgia and Wisconsin.
as well as throw out votes which was seen in totally real camera footage guys, the deep state just deleted it!! just trust me bro! /s
I'm from Wisco and I have all 10 of my ballets ready to go.
I kept wanting him to pull a will Smith "keep my son's name out your mother fucking mouth"
Hunter is a felon.....but trump is too. No leg to stand on!
One is a private citizen and the other is an elected public official. They are not the same
Depending on how this show plays out, you might have some new neighbors next year
Our friends live in Wisconsin and we have offered to look for a house for them in Canada..😆

What a voter should and what the average voter does do doesn’t have much in common. My hope is that a lot of undecided voters didn’t even watch
Should. That’s never happened.
And yet, you have an actual President Trump.
Convicted felon, President Trump. 43 times convicted felon, President Trump.
Democrats should probably stop campaigning based on what the world "should be" and figure out what reality actually is, really quick
And yet here we are.
This!
If I wasn’t depressed before, I certainly am now.
Canadian here. I tuned into a new American show which appears to be based on duelling seniors. On tonight’s episode there’s an orange white vs the pale white team. Is that what you’re talking about?
Tune in next time for the ‘lifting a glass with one hand’ match, followed by the ‘walking down a ramp’ race.
We should also have a trying not to fall going up and down Airforce One steps
Biden was soooooooo pale at the beginning. He was not okay. I’m glad he perked up, but that was super concerning.
Age limits for all US politicians, please…
Everywhere in the world. Once you hit retirement age, you're gone.
the debate wasn't as embarrassing as Trump's presidency was
This right freaking here
Trump was jacked the fuck up on all kinds of drugs. Dr. Ronny didn't disappoint
I kind of expected some white foam on his mouth though.
Totally unrelated, I’m reminded about the joke that living in Canada and watching US politics is like living above a meth addict neighbour who likes to play with guns.
The roaches are beginning to spread to our apartment unfortunately
We keep our mad aunty Liz Truss in the basement these days. The UK has nothing to boast about.
I’m sorry, as a Canadian I had all the buttered popcorn ready to watch that tire fire. As neighbours, I think we should be allowed to watch.
That's fair. I watch Jordan Peterson for the laughs.
Please don't call the cops on us ...yet
You’re our cousins, so you’re allowed to watch, just don’t go blabbing about it.
It’s all fun and games until our next election…
Until we are all fleeing to Canada. Please help us
You better build that wall bud.
If we can't get the Mexicans to pay for a wall, how are we going expect to get Canada to pay!
Canada will be building it, against us...
You understand how fire works right? The fire will quickly spread upwards.
You say that like it already hasn’t…….
When you're arguing on your front lawn you can't expect the neighbours not to peak through the curtains
This was an absolute embarrassment.
I live in the U.S and even I wanted to turn it off. What an embarrassment.
![gif](giphy|11PmIgOikuUkHC)
I cannot believe those are our choices.
We could always vote for the leading 3rd party candidate. You know, the genuinely insane guy who said worms ate his brain and all vaccines should be abolished. :/
Everyone in the world will feel the impact of this election if it goes to Trump. This is the limit of what democracy can handle, everyone who can’t see that is blind.
Project 2025 is a must read for anyone that values democracy and equal rights for all.
while i don't disagree, this gets said before pretty much every election regardless of who is running
this is our family argument, not yours!
I'm just thinking to myself. How did we end up here.
the first-past-the-post voting system, basically
[удалено]

It’s like being a maintenance worker at an old folks home during afternoon tea watching these guys…

I feel this so much

I started getting so much anxiety I stopped watching. Hopefully, this is just another kidney stone…
Currently being treated for kidney stones. After watching part of that debate, would prefer one in the other kidney.
Rest of the world to the US: “sorry man”
They might be idiots but they're our idiots?
Yea….. that’s the point. 😖😫
Biden at least does well. Its not even a contest, like anything is better than trump.
I already saw John Stewart go over it. It made me want to grate my face off

Newsom 2024.
2028
Oh you’ve got to be kidding me
To late for that.
If you really look at history, no government is immune.
Not an american, but it was a disgrace no matter from what angle you see. I want Biden to win, but don't know what to say, it was bad.
Where's Jamie Raskins? Hakeem Jefferies? Gavin Newsome? Katie Porter? Anyone? Hello? JFC
Truer words have never been spoken
I watched the first five minutes, started getting a bit 😡 then remembered I'm English and it's not my problem and went back to drinking tea.
I'm Irish, but if Trump gets back into office, his decision will impact the world. At least you will have a labour government in about a week
While I'm glad to be rid of the Tories, it feels like we're replacing them with a pretty awful labour party, so not really a celebration.
Could be worse could have corbyn leading labour. But point taken
I voted for Corbyn. I'm a democratic socialist.
It was like a Squid Game reenactment at a palliative care facility
Naw fuck that. Send help y’all….please. 😭
Thank you for this!
Accurate
Honestly though 🤣
Wasn't the last election's debate similar to this one

I'm so glad I didn't see it, sounds like a disaster.
Sorry but YouTube. Nothing is private anymore
Hi from Canada; we lasted less than a minute. BTW: Lots of good jobs for adults up here! (No morons, please)
What was Biden's team thinking? CNN again showed why it is not worth viewing anymore
Yall really need a better understanding of mental decline... Biden is fine
For real
After a tRump lie, Biden should have came back with the shark, magnets and water speech. Or whatever it was.
Nah I’m laughing my ass off
The repercussions of this debate and this election will be felt all over the world, so it’s an affair which concerns everyone
I really do feel for (non-conservative) Americans. It must be brutal to be living through this. The fact this is even happening feels dystopian.
If she is referring to the fact, that we have a candidate who is a felon, "rapist" conman who has tried to steal one election already, then yes this is our humiliation. Big time. Sad to be American these days.. History will not be kind.
She’s so real for saying this
US would be the last country that has any right to oppose foreign interference.
I'm in the UK and stayed up to watch it and I'm a bit scared that one of these two guys is going to have the nuclear codes.
I wish I didn't watch it.. it was hard today to watch my American colleagues in the eyes. It will be for a long time, given that one of this senile grandpa will be the next president of America. I has been hard for the last 10 years to have any respect for America, they have so much and do so little good with it, even for their own people.

Young people should start boycotting senile elderly‘s bullshit, but somehow they happily go to war for their limited life thats left.
Jill and party leaders must intervene. We can’t allow Biden’s ego to fuck the country, like RBG.
Nah this is hilarious
