Tuesday 9/10 Presidential Debate Megathread! - eviltoast

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!

    I think the time limits will work in his favor, he won’t have the time to ramble and go off the rails.

      That’s definitely a concern.

      I don’t think there’s any doubt that Harris herself will do well, I just think it’s a good idea to recognize that the format does indeed play to Trump’s strengths and puts band-aids over his (very deep) deficiencies.
