There is no "enranged cocaine chimp" running for president.

As for the choice between Trump and Biden... easy choice for me. I will vote for the one who will not raise taxes, will not reward illegal aliens and will not put leftists in the U.S. Supreme Court.

Nor should he have told the president to "shut up." That's just flat-out disgraceful. He could have said something like "please let me finish what I'm saying" or something like that, or even been more forceful and said "I'm talking now so you need to wait your turn." But "shut up"? No.

Wallace's "questions" were full of incorrect and inflammatory assertions which made it impossible to answer. that was the cause of the food fight. Shame on them....twisted sisters' of the realm.

Default Remember a few years ago, the white/gold dress vs. the blue/black dress?

So there was that thing. People looked at an image, and saw either a white/gold dress, or a blue/black dress.

It was unbelievable that anyone could see it differently than the way a person saw it. People reported friendships were broken up over it.

This is how I feel about the Trump/Biden debate. How could ANYONE see it as anything other than Trump being an absolute jerk, bellowing away the whole time, and Biden trying to rescue a few seconds of his allotted time while Chris Wallace tried to shut Trump up, with mixed success?

The dress color thing was explained by science - apparently eyes see colors differently.

What can we attribute to this phenomenon that Trump supporters don't see that Biden was mostly respectful. and Trump was a firehose of blabbering directed at Biden's face for the majority of the debate?

This disagreement isn't about having different color perceptions, it's about being unwilling to watch the debate and tick of the number of times one candidate interrupted the other.

I saw it as a coordinated DNC-Media attack. Wallace basically ran interference for the people he really works for.
