    I would love to see the candidates grilled concerning the bad votes/policies that truly affect the people and this country. But, I am sure that it will be very civil, respectful and not meant to purposely embarrass anybody at the podium.

    Not watching the debates or listening to Trump's interview with Tucker. Neither of them are worth my time.

    The debate is gonna be a warmongering neocon-fest with Bill Kristol advertising support for the war during commercial breaks.

    You have a duty to your country to be an informed voter. I doubt your job is more important than your duty to your country.
    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    My money is on Chris Christie to win the debate. He's the biggest threat to Trump, and a well rounded candidate in general

    Good advice in this thread. I'm gonna ask my boss for a compromise and watch the debate on my phone while I'm supposed to be working.

    I want to know if any of them are for tax payer funded abortions for male to female trans. Julien Castro got a standing O in the 2020 DNC debate and I see the answer to this question great for establishing who is sane and who is insane.

    I have a thing that night. Damn.

    But I’m pretty sure that if there’s anything the least worthy of note to be found in the bloviations emanating from Milwaukee, somebdy here will catch and post it.

    I already washed my hair today. (I guess I should've planned ahead.)

    But I do confess to being mildly curious as to what level of TDS will be manifested, by whom, and in what manner.

    Who will kiss Trump's ass? Who will (try to) kick it? That sort of thing.

    Purely for entertainment purposes, of course. (And yes, I am that easily amused.)

    Christie should account for a bowl or two of popcorn all by himself.

    In any case, it's apt to be more interesting than watching Trump aggrandize himself while Tucker avoids asking him any really tough questions.

    Strong, but mostly rehearsed opening by DeSantis. Next up is Chris Christie, who has apparently been promoted to second place.
