‘Not a healthy democracy’ that calls Trump a winner for ‘firehose of falsehoods’

  • Following the first presidential debate, the discussion has largely focused on panic from the Democratic side over Joe Biden’s performance. But as Ruth Ben-Ghiat and former Sen. Doug Jones (D-AL) point out, Trump did the public a disservice by lying the entire night. “This wasn’t a debate,” Ben-Ghiat tells Ali Velshi. Instead, she says that Trump “showed up to spew propaganda and turn this into a propaganda show” and spread “a firehose of falsehoods.” And while some people start calling for Biden to be replaced as the nominee, Sen. Jones cautions people to have some patience. “The presidency is much more than a single debate,” he says.

      Trump the 45th President lied 30,573 times in his 4 year term per the Washington Post. 30,573 ÷ 666, recognize that number? = 45.
      Trump - total lunar eclipse - June 14,1946
      Mike Johnson - total lunar eclipse - January 30,1972.
      Nikki Haley - January 20, 1972.
      Astronomical odds of this happening.

      Agree. It seems that network was mostly trying to make their moderators easy and comfy. That's the trouble. No one wants to feel uncomfortable. We're so used to ease and the only reason we have that right now is President Biden. He's right now leading so expertly that we can all post on social media. We have internet access, electronic devices and free speech. Biden made some people feel uncomfortable and they came totally unglued. Unhinged. How dare Biden do that to them (sarcasm). That's why they're upset. How dare grandpa Joe be an imperfect human. Pfft. Brian Tyler Cohen is right, most people are in fact smart enough to figure out that President Biden has successfully led our country, for the people and not his own selfish agenda, and that's not undone in a short tv show. Biden is fine. He's stiff and his stutter is worse. Well my stutter would worsen too if media and self proclaimed influences were putting the weight of the world on my shoulders all on one brief interlude. He's not a Marvel comic character. He's a real person, a working man. He's grown and learned over time and uses that to lead. In running a country in our complex world, issues are seldom solved w "perfect" solutions. I'll take the elder statesman w stiff motion over the fascist Taker.

    3 1/2 years vs 90 minutes! Look at what Biden has done! Ruth Ben- Ghiat should be advising Biden for the next debate!

      The next one wont matter at all. By then Trump will be ahead by a landslide and the Biden presidency will still be fooling themselves.
      Democrats are about to hand Trump the office again. It's only their fault. Remember this when Trumps president.

    People are blowing Biden's debate out of proportion. Like way out of proportion. It was ONE debate. Historically for any president running for a second term, it's going to be rocky. One of the best, President Obama, stumbled against Mitt and look what happened. 8 years. Breathe, Democrats, Joe has got this.

      With confidence and clear case to show their lies and insanity. Not a guy who can't make a single sentence make sense at all. Biden is not up to the job. We're going to have Trump again.

    Still voting for Biden. Why? Same reason I voted for Biden in 2020. Joe Biden IS NOT Trump. Every rally Trump holds has been a rally for Biden. Trump is that bad of an option. That's not Biden's fault. That's the fault of the GOP.

    Really high level, not in the least obvious, pretty sure there's a reason media geniuses didn't think of it:
    1. Two minutes per answer, 2. One minute rebuttal, during which time team fact checks answer, 3. One minute reporting fact check. 4. Next question.
    Yup. Definitely more than a major network staff can handle.

    It's clear where Ali stands on the debate. He, like a lot of us was disappointed with Biden's performance. When interviewing Jazmine Crockett, his face said it all. He is a pro Trump advocate. Trump would silence his entire program if elected.

    Trump has worked hard to have a deteriorating effect on democracy; eliminating regulations during his term and promising to do more. 1904 serious train accidents since he left office, airplane construction under scrutiny, and food items leaving the factories in unsafe conditions. guess he wants to have a deteriorating effect on our population.

      Biden is going to lose. How do people not understand this. If democracy is actually at stake then get serious about this. Biden is not able.
