The Worst Presidential Debate of All Time
September 30th, 2020Via: The Week:
The first presidential debate of the 2020 general election cycle was the most embarrassing spectacle of its kind this country has ever witnessed.
…
96 minutes of shouts, insults, interruptions, stray thoughts, and loose babble. It was like witnessing an argument about an arcane procedural rule during a senior bingo night at a nursing home in purgatory. It was vicious, tasteless, witless, and (surprisingly, alas) painfully unfunny.
It was a painful and potent indictment of the US political system that these two were supposedly the best representatives the two-party system could come up with. I keep wondering what it would have been like had Tulsi Gabbard been up there.
