  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I can see that, and a 4 point bump is good for the amount of time on the topic.

I don't think so...
If we give the OP poll any credence, then youre wrong.

Or we could dismiss the OP poll and the point the OP person was trying to make as well.

The OP's poll says Trump is trusted more after the debate, how does that make me wrong?

On the economy.

I was bringing up a different poll question, and I quoted the results.

After the debate, more respondents are likely to reconsider their Trump vote than their Harris vote.

From that CNN poll

Debate watchers who supported Trump prior to Tuesday night were more likely than those who supported Harris to say they were wavering following the debate, 23% to 12%.

Looks like the debate did much more damage to Trump than to Harris.

Doubtful.
Im somewhat doubtful about the poll too. But that takes down the OPs point as well.

Overall tho, Trump seems to have come off as the loser in this whole event. Even a lot of Trump people agree.

After all the economic turmoil from COVID-19, any Republican candidate would look good on the economy. That's why it's tragic that there isn't a decent Republican candidate this time around. It would have been an easy win.

I think Nikki Haley would have crushed Harris at the debate. None of the issues that sunk Trump would have even come up.

She doesn’t say stupid things that have to then be cleaned up afterwards. She doesn’t spread dumb unfounded conspiracies she read online or saw on tv. Harris wouldn’t be able to so easily crush her on the abortion debate. She wouldn’t have fallen for the easy bait about crowds at her rallies and look like a self interested raving lunatic coming apart at the seams. She doesn’t have a ton of baggage from an unpopular presidency. She’s not an automatically divisive figure. She doesn’t antagonize or demonize people who disagree with her.

I’m hoping for Trump’s loss, if anything to break the spell he has over so many people.
