    PBS has a lady on who says congresspeople are contacting her and basically saying, “why couldn’t it have been Nikki Haley?!”

    Trump on his immigration plan: “There are more migrants than they say because they allowed criminals and terrorists and drug dealers to come into the U.S. and are told by countries like Venezuela if they come back, they’ll kill them. Crime in those countries are way down because they gave criminals to her and they did it because she’ll get votes, but it isn’t worth it. They’ve destroyed the fabric of our country. Millions of people let in and all over the world, crime is down except in America and we have a new form of crime, it’s called “migrant crime” and it’s at the highest level ever. The FBI lied about crime because they didn’t include cities. It was a fraud like the number of jobs they said were created!”

        The FBI is also only responsible for federal crime statistics, as I recall. Most crimes aren’t federal.

      I do wish she had called that one out. Violent crime is the lowest it has been in 50 years. Undocumented immigration is below where it was when Trump was in office. Undocumented immigrants commit less crime than citizens.

    So idk about everyone else, but did anyone else catch that they both had hot mics?

    This wasn’t a debate for her, or a law school case scenario, or an undergrad philosophy argument. This was a trap she set.

    He managed to call him weak, a poor sport, a sore loser, an idiot, in a publicly appropriate manner, and each time she did, he got more and more unhinged.

    Don’t stop your opponent from making the wrong move.

    She’s absolutely kicking his ass and the interviewers are, too. The Cult of 45 is unreachable by reality, but it’s a lot more fun watching this than the Biden debate.

      He’s parroting good points he hears used against him.

      “You don’t have a plan”

      “That’s a lie”
