Disneyland isn't fucking closed because of what the fake media said or a hunch the CEO had. The NBA & NFL aren't playing without fans in the stadium because they want to. And I suspect the people who were ultimately behind those decisions know just a weeeeee bit more than you about what they're doing.
Disney announced today they're laying off 20,000+ employees because the theme parks are a no-go now. CA restrictions, they said on the news.

2/3 said Biden won. You can be sure of one thing, if there are more debates, they will have much lower ratings than this one.

Yeah ratings will be low.

But I think after tonight, more debates can only help Biden or do nothing one way or the other. If Biden can win the debate polls with a lackluster performance because Trump is such a maniac, more will only be better. Trump won't change anything, and Biden will likely improve, meaning he'll win by even wider margins.

Sorry for your weak troll game. And the complete lack of a sense of humor has to hurt lol...
LOL! Were these "right wing extremists" the same ones that had people from the left, be it BLM, Antifa, etc., attacking their cars trying to get to them and rip them out of there, before they gunned it to try and save their lives? You are so fuking stupid you don't even have the sense to realize that when you see a clip of someone in a car gunning it, running over some people, that maybe, just mayve, CNN, MSNBC, etc. chopped the first part of the clip where people were coming after their car, breaking the windows, trying to open the doors, pulling them out, etc., and skipped to the scared people in the car gunning it to get out of there. You literally just see the clip on the crazy-left news of someone in a car running over some other people and think, "wow, crazy right wingers!!!". Dude, wake up...


I’m still waiting for that list. You told be to go to YouTube and I did. If you don’t like what I found then maybe you should back up your claims yourself.

Disney is a major player in CA politics. If they thought enough people would actually show up at Disneyland to make it pencil out, they would exert their influence to get the restrictions lifted. The problem is that there aren't enough people willing to risk exposing themselves to the virus to make it pencil out. So they minimize their losses by keeping the parks closed, laying off staff, and blaming the restrictions.

Glad you guys really showed what was up with that whole Mah Russia thing, got so much good shiat couldn't do anything with it! "Hey, uummmmm, you take this, I'm sure you can do something with this. Nooooo, you take this, its your job!!! There has to be something you can do with this!!!".

What a fuking clown show, and yours and my money down the drain for that waste of time... although for you its only .3 cents so you don't care lol...

So you've mentioned the evil fake news CNN about 500 times in this thread. I HATE Trump, but I don't own a TV, and haven't watched a lick of CNN or read a single article on their web site in probably 10 years. This may come as a surprise to you, but many people hate Trump because of Trump. Not because of what Wolf Blitzer or the guy with the gray hair and glasses says about him, or the stories they run. Maybe CNN does make up shit about Trump, I don't know. I don't care about CNN, I do care that our leaders an incompetent buffoon who's likely not suitable to be the Manager of a Jamba Juice. And that assessment comes from my own 2 eyes and 2 ears with zero influence from any news media outlet. The only things I watch video-wise are press conferences and other unedited videos the WH chooses to tape themselves.

Disneyland originally closed down before there was any sort of mandated shut down yet. People are morons, I know it wouldn't be near normal levels of admission, but if Disneyland was open they'd likely have a lot of visitors. Around here when things re-opened, like the pool halls there were lines down the block to get in.

I dreaded the wait just before the debate worried Biden would seriously stumble and ruin his chances. But not the case, he did ok in performance overall. I'm somewhat concerned about finding-the-right-numbers small gaffes like "9 or 90, it's 9.." That's not the exact quote, I paraphrased it.

But it's not serious enough to do much damage. Fox News played up those numbers moments. Since I'm for Biden I'm not inclined to think it's that big of a deal so far.

And remember Trump said Biden couldn't put two sentences together a few weeks ago. That's not the situation based on the debate imo. So wonder if any conservatives think it's the case now. They could try to say Trump was just using a figure of speech but to me it implied an overall opinion which is he thinks Biden is a lousy hopeless speaker/debater which does not appear to be the case.

I didn't vote for Trump in 2016 and obviously was unhappy he won, but I always believed that the strength of our institutions would protect us in the long term, as imperfect as they are. I never thought in my lifetime that cornerstones that this country is built on - such as the peaceful transition of power - would be seriously threatened. I do believe it's not very likely, but the very idea that it is a legitimate concern in an American election is horrifying.

Republican or Democrat - I hope that come election night, Americans remember they're Americans and put country before party.

It will be great to see Biden fail bigly when he doesn't have the protection of his basement or teleprompter.
I'd ask you if you feel ashamed for the bullshit you say, but as someone who doesn't have integrity, you clearly never feel ashamed for the bullshit you spew.

You're fucking disgusting. I'm not sure how, or why, you continue living with yourself.

Seek help.

Baaaahahahaha! Mah Russia!!!! Still!!! The far left wasted millions and millions of dollars on some dumb Mah Russia shiat that never existed and they knew it. Yet you dumb ass is still clutching to it! You can't make this up. MAH RUSSIA!!!! LOLOL!!!!
So Microsoft Nazi bot got out again? Gonna have a talk with Bill over this... cant keep happening. Was chatting with him the other day and apparently what happened is that the AI began consuming 4Chan content, and once the infection started to spread it was unstoppable. They are only keeping it “alive” now to study it, though serious discussion is being had whether the humane thing would be to pull the plug.
Should probably pull the plug.

Haven't waded through this thread but I did notice a couple of things:

(1) House rules were that everyone in the audience wear masks. Of course, NONE of the Trumpers wore one and everyone in the Dem audience did. Continued politicization of such a basic health measure is just plain stupid.

(2) I could only sit through maybe a half hour of this food fight (came back near the end as well). My kudos to Chris Wallace for trying his humanly best. Without the ability to shut off mics and/or making the candidates wear shock collars this just won't work. The next two debates (IF they occur) are going to be a mess, and a mostly unwatched one.

(3) Without a doubt Trump's performance energized his base. But I doubt if he convinced anyone else. The vast amount of Americans are totally disgusted with his chaos and BS. Trump calling for his followers to (occupy) and "observe" polling places-in response to a question about whether he would ask his followers to peacefully allow the election process go on-was truly scary to me. We are on a precipice.

(4) It would be interesting to see stats on how quickly viewership dropped off for this Trump shitfitfest. The less enthusiastic voters will have to decide if they will battle through the GOP obstructions and get to the polls this time to stop this collapse.

Nah, I think he's just nuts. Like A420 levels of nuts. Go back and look at his OT posts. He may be posting from a... facility.

Trump's plan appeared to be to act like a monkey. Throw feces, make loud noises and cause such a disaster that anyone with a brain doesn't want to see any more of his bullshit.

And here, ladies and gentlemen, here is a prime example of TDS!!!!!! RIGHT FUCKING HERE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!! Trump restricting flights from China - BAD. Nancy Pelosi saying "come to Chinatown, nothing at all to fear here!!!" is GOOD. Wow, just amazing how people can twist reality to fit what they want to believe...

True TDS looks more like...

I turn 39 in November and I have never voted in my entire life. I have absolutely zero political affiliation as far as democrats and republicans go and I don’t even give a shit about the ideology of either party.

I registered to vote this year and pretty sure I registered an independent since I couldn’t give two shits about what a democrat or republican is.

I cannot FATHOM how anyone, republican or democrat, could have watched that debate last night and saw how the sitting President of the United States acted and answered those questions, and been like “yep, that is my president and I want 4 more years of that guy.” He is just a complete man child clown, racist piece of shit bully.

Seriously, anyone I know personally who supports that clown is just going to be looked at completely different from here on out if I know they vote for him this year.

It's the Democrats and their stupid response to Covid- 19 that produced insanely high death and infection rates. Look at the rates on a state by state basis and you will see where the death factories were. Nancy Pelosi and others declared travel bans for Covid were racist, Gov Cuomo locked elderly up with sick people and De Blasio declared everything was ok.


Herman Cain: "There is no pandemic."

Coronavirus: "There is no Herman Cain."

Coronavirus wins by Karmic Knockout.

Welcome to my 2012 and 2016 XP. In 2012, Trump was laughed off the stage. By 2016, conservatives couldn't hide their racism and hatred of "others" anymore
