    Complaining about debate moderators is a loser's move.

    This is a climate change question, and Trump ranting about payoffs, or something.

    Closing arguments coming up.

    Expect clear and concise from Harris, and some kind of rant - controlled rant - from Trump.

    He's going after the mods, saying she should call them out. I disagree, but he's not wrong about the mods.

    "A new way forward"
    "Having a plan"

    She's said both multiple times tonight. That's going to get through to some.

    At times when she has said "I have a plan" I kept thinking of MLK Jr "I have a dream". She's focusing on design and application, not "concepts of a plan but I'm not president"

    Her prepared opening line to her closing gives trump way way way too much credit. We didn’t see a vision from trump looking back. We saw absolute ********ing insanity….ans a vision for the future.

    Liked the little dig about how 800K Poles in Pennsylvania would feel about Vlad invading Poland next.

    Anybody who would appreciate her going after the mods already knows they’re shit.

    I liked her closing speech. She focused on the American people.

    Now he's just ranting and ranting and ranting. Nothing about the American people but only about how bad America is.

    Wow. Yes. She’s been great. For the most part. If that’s the impression I’ve given that wasn’t my intent. But she’s trying to debate another debater. And she conceded the last word way too often…as in every time. Once it was clear the moderators were gonna keep letting it happen…she needed to correct that. I’ve seen her eviscerate people reclaiming her time in the senate, she needed that.


    Oh,,,and the 81 million fired line was brilliant.

    "America's going to have the most lethal military."

    Very nice. Then segue into with the fittest and strongest men and women. There'll even be room for people who've recovered from bone spurs."

    And from the beginning of the damn debate

    Trump looked and sounded like that angry crazy uncle at Thanksgiving dinner.

    Harris looked and sounded like that nice neighbor who popped by with home-made dish and was invited to stay.

    She really didn't have a choice though - it's the moderators who kept letting him have the last word but cutting her off when she tried to.
