Let Gary debate. He’s reading “Save The Country”. Donnie and Hillary are power hungry mopes who would build their personal fortunes. Gary wants to rebuild the economy after the damage Obama and Pelosi have done.
They are running for political office. People running for office lie. It’s what they do. The ones that don’t never get this far. Discussing who lies more is an exercise in futility.
What I would really like to see is a moderator who would insist in getting a question answered rather than accepting a couple of minute political statement that avoids the question. I would like to see them use facts to confront the candidates. High on the list would be Trumps lies and all of the despicable business practices in his past. He has admitted his use of pay for play, short changing anybody who did work for him, numerous bankruptcies, using underpaid immigrants for his projects, Trump University scam, and was fined three quarters of a million dollars by the FTC for violating anti trust laws. He really is the most despicable candidate I have seen in over a half a century.
IMO, if I lived on a different planet, this debate would be fun to watch. It might be instructive to know if the sale of anti anxiety medications has, indeed, gone through the roof of late….
Politico (partial and biased) and the other “fact-checkers” in the Media Biz are liberal-left and their “facts” are definitely biased. (there are always 2 sides to any story).-If one conservative and one lib-lefty are tested, given a set of reported facts, each one will produce opposite viewpoints on what the facts mean and whether someone stating those facts was truly objective. -It is a long-term MindSet. A Conservative or a Moderate with sources and facts that infer one viewpoint of “truth” will not be in agreement with what a Liberal or Leftist expresses.-If the above was not true, why do we have debates and court systems to sort out what is “truth” on issues and controversies?-P.S. I would love to see a “fact-checker” rated by an opposing viewpoint person who makes efforts to be well-informed on current events, and given ratings like are being used against Trump. Especially when Hillary Trump has decades of a reputation of pathological liar status.
i am so amused to see so many trump-worshipers putting themselves in the “repugnant basket”. A guy I know told me “Hillary called me repugnant.” Unfortunately, I hadn’t yet heard the quote or I would have asked him, “So, which are you? Racist, homophobe, white supremacist, or misogynist? Obviously it must be one or all of those. And are you proud of it, to claim it? She didn’t say anything bad about the rest of his voters.” But this guy, who doesn’t like trump, has learned to hate Hillary or anything Democratic.
I wonder why there aren’t any “right-wing fact check sites”…I guess trump is his own fact-checker, That must be why he repeats everything, literally, three times or more.Once you’ve heard something three times, you know it’s true.
I just find it interesting that “righties” who challenge fact checkers who provide the proofs, like “Politico” to state how they made the decision, will accept anything Limbaugh or Breitbart shove out there.

Based on the debates during the primaries Clinton will use factual knowledge about the world we all live in. Trump will spout stuff.

All Mr. Trump needs to do, is to continuously ask her- “How many people did you let die in Benghazi”?!

You’ll notice the Republcans/Fox “news” viewers do not even attempt to defend Trump and his lies and his character.
They are incapable of saying something good about Trump because there is nothing to say about him that is good.

Some things a govt, under good leadership, can do to help We the People. Especially the weak.

Are there any “right-lefty”? Then just say Liberal or Lefty not both it is a meaningless redundancy. Are there any “Con-Lefties” in your universe.
