Blamewallace tried to anarchy on the right with 99 of the problem is on the biden left. Fist was in office for one of our nations existence and now he things he can fix it. President trump turned off the voters he needed to move up in the polls. The president panic . After last nights debate no decent american would vote for trump. That was one of the topic discussions from last night. Here is a bit featuring a question from Chris Wallace. You have repeatedly criticized the Vice President for not calling out antifa and other leftwing extremist groups. Are you willing to condemn White Supremacists and militia groups and say they need to stand down and not add to the violence in a number of cities as we saw in kenosha and as we have seen in portland . Mr. Biden do it. President trump i would say everything i see is from the leftwing. Chris what are you saying . President trump i want to see peace. Mr. Biden say it. President trump what do you want to call them . Chris White Supremacists. President trump proud boys, stanback, standby. Somebody has got to do something about antifa and the left. Mr. Biden his own fbi director said they were White Supremacists. Antifa is an idea, not an organization. That. I director said chris we are done, sir. Antifa is bad. mr. Biden you have no idea. President trump antifa is a dangerous, radical chris we are moving on. Host we start this morning with richard from california, supporter of joe biden. What did you think of last night . Caller i thought it was disgrace a disgrace in democracy by trump. Obviously the guy is totally scared of losing. He had no policy. Like an unhinged person on steroids. Noted quorum. No decorum. No boundaries in terms of the debate in terms of the rules and regulations, just like he has been his whole life. Just like he has run this country. He was chaotic. He was a bully. He was vicious. He was angry. Host what did you think of joe bidenS Performance last night . Caller i wanted him to fight back in certain areas. There are so many areas trump is vulnerable. Not only with his family. House andn the white people profiting from him being president. There is so much of that. Even the tax returns and money to foreign governments. But trump is a narcissistic personality. Host lets go to john in michigan. Caller thank you very much. One point and the debate not talked about enough, when joe biden said he didnt say he would not commit to not packing the Supreme Court. Wontgets elected, and he trump will route him if he gets elected and packs the Supreme Court, he will render the u. S. Supreme court illegitimate. The Supreme Court will become illegitimate. Number two, and trump talked about this. Joe biden has been a politics for 47 years. Where has he been . All these policies he wants to push forward. He was a u. S. Senator voting in 1972. He was Vice President for eight years. Now he wants to do all these things. I was proud of President Trump. Hi thought President Trump wasnt aggressive enough. Host even after what you thought last night . Caller absolutely. He needs to be more aggressive. The stakes could not be higher. The left has no regard for of law enforcement, for our Police Officers that do an incredible job for our country, for our military. They want to degrade our society. Host lets go to rico in college park, maryland. Supporter of joe biden. Caller good morning. How are you . Host go ahead. Caller i watched the debate. It was overall a bad feeling in general watching it. It is not how things should be done. Bad,st made everyone look down to Chris Wallace the moderator. Been working for government for 47 years. That doesnt automatically mean everything he ever want to get done should automatically get done. He is one person of several hundred members of congress. When you think about it, the world we live in was different 40 years ago, different 30 years ago, different since march. Host do you think joe biden was effective last night . Caller in a sense, yes. He got what he was trying to do. He was trying to talk through trump directly to the camera, which i take was the strategy to talk to the American People. He could only be as effective as one could be further debate that has never happened in that since before. Host that is rico in maryland. Lets go back to john mcardle. John in a nod to social distancing and pandemic precautions there was no predebate handshake and a postdebate spin room. Bothy of spin last night, preand post debate. Starting with the predebate on the airwaves and on the internet. This story from cbs news. The Tram Campaign flooding the airwaves with debate day add blitz. A sevenfigure digital add blitz according to cbs news, promoting a twominute clip that features carrie lam, a black truck driver with granting President Trump with President Trump granting him a second chance. Here are about 40 seconds of that had. I did it. Trump is a godsend. He is life he is a second chance. He is a second chance. Say nah, he is way more than that. I dont have the luxury to worry about freaking roe v. Wade. I dont have the luxury to worry about that. I am too busy trying to keep my family fed. Think about that. For the first time in my life i actually see a way out. John that is from the Trump Campaign postdebate. The Biden Campaign responding with its own sevenfigure add buy. Politico noting the campaign taking over some of the most extensive Digital Space on the top including youtubes page, aol, yahoo , cnn, fox news, pandora, univision, reddit, cbssports, and more. Most places featuring this short ad from the Biden Campaign. [video] this job is about protecting americans, not teargassing them for a photo op. It takes strength, courage, compassion, resilience. That is a president. Host here is more off of social media. Bill from twitter saying the program should have been titled the unpresident ial debacle. Who caught the great trump interrupt show . I stopped counting at 70. Robert saying the questions joe biden refused to answer says volumes. Jim saying a call yesterday said there should be a kid with his finger on the mic button the shutdown interruptions. I agree. Ray, a supporter President Trump. Caller thank you for taking my call. I agree with the trump supporter who called earlier. Trump has done more in four years then biden has done his entire career in congress. Sayi add, how can biden fraud inno evidence of the mail when they found mail dumped in ditches . Host what do you think President Trump accomplished last night . He thumped biden with the truth. Host how so . Caller by calling out biden on the mail, the new green deal. The new green deal costs trillions of dollars. Not billions. Trillions. That will do away with fossil fuels and coal . The lifeblood of our energy. How can you convert all these houses . Host lets hear from ken in fremont, california. A supporter of joe biden. Caller i would like to say i joe bidence president did an excellent job last night. He came out with a book called conscious of a conservative. Biden was the clear winner last night. I thought his best debate lying came whenid line he said get out of your bunker and out of your sand trap and do what needs to be done for the American People. Host from christopher in minnesota, and undecided voter. Go ahead. Caller hi. I saw the debate last night it was just out of control. I really liked what joe biden had to say but im not sold on what President Trump had to say and im not sold on went biden was trying to tell us. What biden was trying to tell us. Im still undecided on what to do for this election. This is the most consequential election we have had in history since george w. Bush and al gore in 2000. The American People we have all been struggling. The constitution states everybody who is struggling gets a fair fight to help in the democratic process. Host when it comes to a specific issue you were concerned about, what would it be . Dealing with the Racial Injustice issues with the and to megeorge floyd that was tragic. Needthe fact is that we barrett that amy coney is pretty good for a judge, but unfortunately i dont think its going to happen. We will find out. Host on those two issues you did not learn anything from what the candidates brought last night . Both issues were discussed. Caller i learned a few things, yes, but i am still not concerned about what biden will do. I am very concerned about what trump is doing. Im still undecided. Im sorry. I am struggling to figure it out. Host that is christopher in minnesota. Paul in indiana, evansville. A supporter of President Trump. Caller good morning. As soon as the president was talking about his Supreme Courthe justice. That befored along he even answered the question. That raised trump up. Dear reminded me of a boxing match, kind of. Sad that we have to listen to all of this. Not get anything across in my opinion. Host when you said mr. Biden skipped, what did he skip . Caller the first 30 seconds he was speaking and they were talking about the Supreme Court justice election for trump. Said 30 seconds about something else. That would get under my caller. When you collar. That, the way for i understood it. You dont call a person a clown, an idiot. I dont think President Trump said anything nasty. Indiana. T is paul in the idea of what is known as court packing, he was asked about that it he was some of that exchange. [video] chris if republicans confirm justice barrett, there has been talk about ending the filibuster or even packing the court, addi ng to the nine justices. You call this a distraction but it was not brought up by the president. It was brought up by some of your democratic colleagues. My question to you is you have refused of the past to talk about it. Are you willing to tell the American People whether or not you will support either ending the filibuster or packing the court . Mr. Biden whatever position i take will become the issue. The American People should speak. You should go out and vote. You are voting now. Let your senators know how strongly you feel. Sure younow make let people know. Im not going to answer the question because the question is President Trump the radical left. Mr. Biden will you shut up, man . President trump it was on your list . Chris no, no. Host a supporter of joe biden, good morning. Caller good morning. Debate really needed some work on both sides to be honest about this. I dreaded this day. Weelt it is a problem where are not really looking at who we are addressing at this debate. In this case what we saw clearly last night was donald trump doing nothing more than just pounding his brand. That is all he has ever done and all he is ever going to do. You never see any facts coming out of him. Where are they coming from . He has not. Hes a good salesperson. If that is what this country is about, we are done. America is not going to survive. I want to see a president that represents the working people and our rights in the constitution. I felt more of that with joe biden but i know he was lacking in that and he didnt really get enough opportunity to do that. I feel with this onesided party we are dealing with with the Senate Majority and trump we are going nowhere. We will continue to be divided. What we have to address is when this debate happens when need to talk about who we are addressing it to, and that is the working people. They pay the taxes. They should be the wasnt have the biggest say in this election. Im hoping both candidates can understand they need to hear who they are talking to and set of talking about themselves. Host the next debate will be a town hall format with questions from the audience. One more debate after that. Next week, the Vice President ial debate. Joe, go ahead. Caller good morning. I was disappointed that both candidates and Chris Wallace did not talk about something with substance. Lets talk about seniors, medicare, medicaid, and the road tax. That is all on the trust fund. The trustreasury owes of 2019. Rillion as the law states that if they 700,000 that it costs billion, and 700 they only cost 200 billion to operate, they leave 500 billion in reserve. They are not allowed to keep that money. It goes to a special bond that the Treasury Department takes. They only pay 1 to 2 . They only give it a balloon note to pay interest per year. It will not go away. Host more of that issue should have been discussed last night and that is something you would like to see going over it . Caller definitely. Just like obamacare. Who paid for that . Social security. Who pays for the 1200 bose people got most people got . That came from Social Security. We are being robbed. The law states that the Treasury Department does not have to pay back the government. Host that is joe from North Carolina on his issues when it comes to Social Security and other matters. Cleveland being a stop in the candidates schedules. More on that with john mcardle. John if viewers did not hear enough from the candidates last night, there is plenty were opportunities to come in the days ahead.
