Four Key Moments In the Presidential Debate Between Trump and Biden

Good morning!

Thank you so much to the six new people that joined dour community yesterday! I am already so close, and I can’t say thank you enough!

This post is not a jab at any of our candidates; everyone’s opinion is theirs. Let’s be kind and knowledgeable. I found a couple of crucial moments within this debate, moments that I found hilarious.

I know you’re probably already seeing news on yesterday's presidential debate, and all I can say is… wow… I have compiled four key moments of Trump and Biden’s debate on CNN. These are primarily unserious moments, but I found them hilarious throughout this debate.

I wasn’t going to post today to give your inboxes a break, but now I HAVE TO share what I saw. I realized that this debate was far more personal than political, and you could most certainly see that as they went back and forth on “debating.” Yes, they did touch on the topics that needed to be touched on, and you did hear some of the best answers they could give; however, there was a lot of goofiness within this debate, whether you found it hilarious or just downright dumb.

Please remember that everyone is different, and finding someone with a different opinion than your own can be beneficial. It is also a great conversation starter for asking questions! Not just for the party you’re supporting but for the other party. Be kind to one another as we continue figuring out who our next president will be, and give yourself some grace if something is said to you that you don’t appreciate! I don’t condone hateful messages or hate in general to another person, so please be respectful whether you are giving your opinion to me on what I’ve posted today or who you plan to talk to about the debate and any future political posts.

Biden calls Trump a ‘loser’ and a ‘sucker’

A claim that dates back six years was among the disputes at Thursday night's first presidential debate. President Joe Biden accused Trump of having called veterans who died in combat "losers and suckers" This accusation, if proven true, could significantly impact public opinion. Not just on President Biden for calling Trump out but also on President Biden himself. It was based on allegations that Trump canceled a 2018 visit to the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in France because he believed there were "losers and suckers" buried there.

Cognitive test taking

Trump claims that he took two cognitive tests and aced them. Soon, he stated that he knew Biden didn't take a single test and would love to see him take one and ace it. Supposedly… everyone knew he took these tests because Trump made them public. After all, he wanted everyone to know he was intelligent and capable of being our president. With exaggerated facial expressions and hand gestures, he clarified that he aced them and ensured everyone knew that. Ensuring we all knew that Biden wasn't that smart and didn’t take a single one.

Golf Handicaps.

Golf handicaps—how did we get here? Following the conversation about cognitive test taking, Biden followed the debate with his handicap and how it is now down to a six. Not only this, but Biden also said he would be happy to play with Trump again if he carried his bag. A crazy statement and claim because not only did Biden make this statement, but he turned towards Trump and pointed at him as well.

Affairs, affairs, affairs.

Biden accuses Trump of not only being a molester BUT also having affairs with other women. Biden goes on and on about how Trump has so many civil penalties against him. He continues to go on and on about how he was having different affairs with his wife while she was pregnant with their child. Finally, he ends his sentence by saying, “You have the morals of an alleycat.” An ALLEYCAT. I am astonished. I have no words.

Thank you so much for reading this letter! I hope you found some funny things in today’s letter and that you take the time to watch some key moments here. We must know who’s running since we have a voice, an opinion, and the ability to educate ourselves.

Have a great weekend! It’s essential to educate yourself on issues that matter to you and to have conversations with others you can relate to and learn from.

Cheers,
