  • 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.

Yeah, okay, spitefully, ignorantly dismissing the pandemic response team was a misstep but he actually did help with the vaccine funding. :oldthumbsup:
Credit where credit is due. Not even Trump is wrong every single time.

Oct 9 (Reuters) - Republican former President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he will not debate Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, hours after Fox News invited the two presidential contenders to participate in a possible second debate on either Oct. 24 or Oct. 27.
And Harris rejected the Fox debate on September 4. She performed dismally on the single interview she did where she was challenged by Bret Baier. We saw it. She's also blown other interviews, descending into "righteous indignation" on CBS and the last one she did with a young woman on NBC, I believe it was, just this past weekend.

Viewing this impartially, and as if you don't know who she is or what her beliefs are is very helpful. Few seem to be able to pick out substance from their bias.

As his campaign has said, he's tired. He often seems confused at rallies, one of which had to be cancelled. It's a huge strain on him; he's aged a lot since he lost the last election.

One rally, he forgot everything and began to wander aimlessly, talking about Arnold Palmer's anatomical issues. (link is a possible violation, but if you really care, it can be found)


As the first debate showed, he just isn't up to that kind of stress now.

Psst! The topic of this thread is Trump secretly sending covid tests to his best bud, Putin.

Nothing he has EVER said is worse than Kamala Harris' merely reciting memorized phrasing from her campaign speech instead of answering ANY question asked in recent interviews with Fox, NBC, and CBS. She is an auto-reject.

He is 78 yet doing 3-4 campaign events a day. She takes the day off to practice for a single interview and still blows it. You must watch all the performances if you do not understand this.

Well, his Arnold Palmer blovating was certainly worse. Or his claims that windmills cause cancer. Or his idea that we should inject ourselves with disinfectant, or his claim that he actually won in 2020, or his claim that veterans are suckers and losers, or... (very long list).

One does what one can with what one has; I get that. It's just that there's so much stuff Trump has embarrassed his supporters with.

Harris repeating what she would do about the problems interviewers asked, doesn't com close, does it?

Could Donald Trump — the man who memorably branded Jeb Bush “low energy,” claimed Hillary Clinton lacked the “stamina” to be president, and spent much of the current race hounding “Sleepy Joe” — finally have tuckered himself out?

Trump has canceled several recent interviews, and Politico Playbook reported on Friday that a campaign adviser explained to one spurned outlet that the 78-year-old candidate was simply too tired to chat at the moment:

In a conversation earlier this week, when describing why an interview hadn’t come together just yet, a Trump adviser told The Shade Room producers that Trump was “exhausted and refusing [some] interviews but that could change” at any time, according to two people familiar with the conversations.

Has Trump Hit the Wall?

Former President Donald Trump has backed out of a number of scheduled events in recent weeks, raising questions about whether the 78-year-old candidate is experiencing exhaustion in the closing days of the campaign.

Following ‘exhaustion’ report, Trump cancels yet another appearance


He was never in very good shape, and now he's just not up to the task of running for president. His exhaustion was obvious at the rally where he became confused and started blathering about Arnold Palmer's physique. He's just too old and out of shape to keep focused.

Then he has picked up the pace a bit because it was 3-4 per week until quite recently.

Just ask him. "No one has ever done as many events as I have! The best events! Everyone is saying how many events I've bee.... zzzzzzzz"
He's aged noticeably since he was convicted of all those felonies.

Yeah, I'll give you that first point. He says a lot of better-left-unsaid stream of consciousness thoughts; he always has. He still did a better job and had better policies than Biden-Harris, even with the mean tweets and weird statements.

We didn't have millions flooding over the border and released into the country, including thousands of criminals, per ICE. We didn't have Venezuelan gangs taking over apartment buildings in several cities.
