Was tempted to call this “Debate 2: Electric Boogaloo” but a) A lot of Lemmy won’t get the OG reference. and 2) “Boogaloo” has been co-opted and carries an unfortunate connotation these days.
Also, while it’s Trump’s 2nd debate of the season, it’s Harris’s first…
It’s being run by ABC News at 9 PM Eastern time, 6 PM Pacific, I see MSNBC starts their coverage TWO HOURS EARLY. That’s a lot of air time to fill, guys. Good luck!

That’t it! Thanks for hanging with it everbody!
I also feel like the moderators were relatively good at calling out egregious lies and not giving Trump the final word. Usually.
But yeah, Trump apparently controlled the mics, not the moderators.
It was sooo frustrating cause they shut down Harris at one point, like stop letting Trump steam roll you and be consistent on who can speak.
And then she came back and made a point to address what she wanted anyways (it was about taking peoples guns). She just did it without being a raging lunatic screaming loud enough to be heard in OTHER mics lol
