Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

MODERATORS
She is fucking him up. But his followers will never see it.
His followers were never going to change their vote though.
Undecided voters are the target audience
She's holding her own. I think it's going as good as she would have hoped.
The way she looks at him while calling him out is great to see. That’s gotta be getting to him.
He refuses to look at her, the entire time. He can't even hardly look at the moderators. He can't acknowledge a woman is on a stage with equal standing with him and it's embarrassing him.
Is she? She's ignoring way too much of his bullshit instead of dismissively calling him out on it. I don't think she's losing but I wouldn't be surprised if this debate ends up getting called a draw by lots of outlets. Now, part of that is down to ABC, but Trump is being allowed to bulldoze both her and the moderators, and too many of his lies are left unanswered by either her or the moderators.
I don't think he bulldozed anyone. He tried but the more he got into it with the moderators the worse he came off and after he went through all of his usual nonsense he had nothing for the rest of the debate
