Sigh.  The Washington Post is not exactly known as an unbiased news source.

That said, Trump could have cited the moderator's bias when it came to fact checking, and how even with that bias, their facts were wrong.  There are already a few well-known examples where the moderators so-called facts were incorrect (or half-true).  It's almost as if ABC News knew the question, knew the answer that it thought was correct, and was prepared to fact check Trump if he gave anything but that allegedly correct answer.  ABC News should apologize for getting its fact checks wrong, but it won't.[/quote]

What facts did the moderators get wrong?  These are definitely not well known. [/quote]

The VP made several statements that were incorrect and should have been fact checked by the moderators.  But the most negligent thing they did was not getting answers from the VP on her policy flips and the economy.  This was the one and only time voters will see her questioned and they were unable to get answers from her on WHY the 180 degrees flip on the border wall, immigration, mandatory gun buybacks, fracking, and most importantly whether the American people are better off today than four years ago. Voters know Trump is scum.  But they don’t know Kamala at all.  [/quote]
You didn’t answer the question. PP specifically the moderators gave incorrect facts when they were factchecking Trump. Please provide an example of an incorrect fact they provided when factchecking him.[/quote]
Still waiting for someone to respond to this[/quote]

No one will, because it was yet another false assertion from a MAGA who heard it in the echo chamber, repeated it here and realized they cannot back it up.[/quote]

I think they are still processing how thoroughly Harris demolished Trump on the debate stage. They expected their god emperor to trounce her with his typical bombast and vitriol. In the weeks leading up to the debate, they latched onto "she's stupid and incoherent" because she wouldn't do a press interview or speak without a teleprompter/notes or publish her policy positions (never once giving her leeway to vet/select a VP, put a campaign together and fundraise from a running start in late July). The fact that a career prosecutor who has also been an AG, Senator and VP wouldn't be prepared is laughable. But they drank the Koolaid anyways and are now struggling to cope. It can't be because she was prepared and talented. It has to be because she cheated or the moderators were unfair. After all, she's a POC woman and Donald Trump is a "man's man who always tells it like it is". To think otherwise, would violate their worldview. I relish watching them struggle to cope with a younger, more talented opponent who has all of the energy and momentum right now.[/quote]

Demolishing Trump wasn’t victory though. No matter how good it felt.  Victory was explaining to the undecided voters why she isn’t a continuation of the Biden policies.  Which the vast majority of American hate.  Which she completely failed to do. [/quote]

Really?  I’ll keep reading in case you’ve addressed this in a later post, but where are you getting the data to support your “vast majority of America hate(s)” Biden’s policies?  Many Americans— including me — love most of Biden’s policies, but are rightly concerned about someone 4 years older than he is now in the President’s seat.  If he were younger, we’d be all in. Part of the reason I’m excited about Harris is because I hope she’ll get 8 more years to put some of the priorities that she shares with Biden more firmly in place — while implementing her own priorities over time.

So, data?  You jump from “undecided voters” who need to be convinced to “vast majority of Americans “ who you claim  “hate” Biden’s policies, with absolutely nothing to support your assertions.  Got anything? Anything at all?  [/quote]
