Sneak Preview of the 'Big Debate'

My opponent will destroy democracy But my opponent will normalize hypocrisy My opponent pays hush money to whores Well, my opponent snoozes in meetings and snores My opponent’s in cahoots with radical progressives But my opponent’s tax cuts are regressive My opponent is in bed with Putin Well, my opponent for Iran is rootin’ My opponent’s spending will stoke inflation But my opponent’s plans will increase starvation Enough! Stop! Cut! Halt! It’s not all the other guy’s fault All this negativity makes one thing clear I’m voting for the first candidate I can cheer

LOLs, Gershon! You nailed it! A slug-fest I fear 'twill be; Who'll win, we''ll wait and see; We ain't got much of a choice; And have little about to rejoice!

Splendid performance by Trumpy! Joe looked like death warmed over and the dems are in panic mode.

Well, just having listened to the debate, I was pleasantly surprised at how well Trump acquitted himself, for the most part. And no ranting or raving. That was good. Maybe there's hope after all. Maybe... :) gw

Not bad! I really like the repartee, you really hit the spot. My favorite part... "It’s not all the other guy’s fault" I too wrote something.

And now that the debate's over, what say you, Anaya?!

I know who controls all the talking heads. They best remember who is watching. Sadly many politicians want to be a winner for themselves and not champions of their kingdom. (God, I pray for the soul of America!) Good write.

Quite a low bar we've set for the two 'candidates,' eh?!
