It's a sad day to watch the President of the greatest nation state in history have a breakdown on live television. Very sad.

That was mental, I missed the first 30 minutes I think. Trump was crazy when I switched it on. Biden and Wallace couldn't deal with it,

Trump's only strategy is get Biden to lose his tulip. It very nearly worked.

We used to go and catch these as kids: Rinkhals - Wikipedia armed only with a V stick, a sack and goggles. Once caught we used to sell them to the local snake farm for the milking of their venom.

I know those little beauts - as part of our training we practiced on Rinkhals. A good 'starter' snake ... well compared to the Boomslang and Mambas anyway

Not sure his approach of nuking the site from orbit really worked.

in Frank Luntz's focus group, Ruthie from PA said she was undecided coming into tonight..... but now likes Biden b/c Trump was behaving like a "crackhead" and made the debate impossible to watch

I have a question: what do the panel think that Trump meant when he said "stand back and stand by" in relation to the far right group the Proud Boys when asked if he would condemn far right extremists?

Seems like an odd thing to say... almost Freudian perhaps.

[minestrone]

Dont think he really meant anything by it.

I was expecting to find the full thing on iPlayer or BBC news, can't find it though. Anyone watching back, where from - YouTube?

Not sure but the whole labelling a multi racial group as white supremacists is really weird. I don't understand how blacks, asians, etc are white supremacists?
