The future of the Supreme Court is the high stakes. Better get out and vote and encourage others.

Not hearing enough of this. There’s several who are highly likely to croak or retire in the next few years and the last thing we need is the Cheeto picking their successors.

If trump wins the SCOTUS will have an extreme right wing Christian majority for another 50 years.

That is longer than some of us will be alive...

People, please don't subject us to that because Biden had one poor night... the other guy lied, is insane, and will take this country back into the 1800's

How come we came into this reality ? Since when we have to choose the lesser evil of both candidates instead of voting for the right leader to lead us out of chaos time ? Both Reps and Dems are looking down on voters with threats "look, you have to vote for ME because the another guy is a bad guy" not because "I am a capable leader who is strong and healthy"

Biden was actually trying to speak to what his government has achieved to help everyday Americans. The moderators sat on their hands and let BS reign. No fact checking.

Do look at what the Democrats have managed to achieve, often with bi-partisan support. Low unemployment, good middle class job creation. Meaningful support for Unions. Reduction in cost of insulin, actual infrastructure projects, increased healthcare and childcare.

No chaotic tweets at two am, no daily drama, no whining. Actual respect for the rule of law.

The debate is not about facts and figutes. This is internet age people can verify these claims for few minutes. The debate is showing the votes how would you speak and present under pressure and Biden clearly did not win that aspect. How could Biden speak against Putin, Kim and Xi that he cannot speak against an idiot like Trump ? We need to change, now !

Do you seriously believe having Trump talking to his dictator heroes would be good for the USA?

Biden, on the other hand, is respected by your country’s allies and can speak with them. Debates are supposed to be about facts and figures. You’re supposed to prove your position.

It’s sad that Presidential debates have now devolved into slinging insults and unsubstantiated accusations.

Debates are theatre. International relations in the sense you're describing is not theatre.

I don’t know man, but I’m trying to have a picnic and browse reddit right this moment in a little suburban picnic shelter and I had to remove two propaganda stickers from a white supremacist group that supports Donald Trump. Never saw anything like that before Trump started his 2016 election campaign

This is the only argument. Gotta be 200 million Americans eligible to run for the office of the President. These are our two choices. We need to look into how the fuck we got here…….

For something so seemingly vital they're definitely not sending their best.

This. It's fucking embarrassing. I refuse to vote for someone who's actually dying. The DNC did this shit to themselves just like when they stabbed Bernie in the back before 2016 and pushed liberals to not voting or voting red. We've had over a year of discussing that he's too old and not fit enough to run again and everyone just tried to turn it into a joke. It's not a fucking joke. Dude is dying. It's near as embarrassing to have the leader of our nation be someone in his current state as it was to have Trump, and there's no way he'll make 4 years of it. There's no way he's fully in control and command of the nation currently. It was blind stupid hubris to let him run again on his part and the part of the DNC.

I'm not voting for Trump, never have and never will. But I'm not voting for Biden either. I can't in good faith vote for someone in that state as Commander in Chief of even his retirement home.

I understand that you've managed to get yourself in a flap about this, but your vote for Biden is actually a vote for the next potentially 3 supreme court justices, and a vote for the continuation of democratic elections themselves in this country.
