Yeah, but did you see how fast Trump could tell a lion from an elephant on the cognitive test?

Nobody recognizes elephants faster or better than Donald Trump, nobody.

My favorite quotes are probably:

"We won two world wars. Two beautiful world wars..."

"Joe [Biden] doesn't even know he's alive..."

He is a quotable machine for sure. I liked when he talked about Joe Biden crying for his mommy to take him home.



I'm telling you jwb, if they actually debate, the entertainment value will be through the roof. It would make up entirely for the possibility of no NFL season.

I wouldn’t be able to remember the numbers and especially not in reverse.

Meh... There's no way it's going to be better than the 2016 Republican primary debates. I still find Trump entertaining from time to time but to me his schtick got old a while ago.

He really peaked in 16. "I like the ones who don't get caught." That was peak Trump.

It’s still pretty mind blowing he got away with that. That was a transitional moment in American history.

I remember in 2008 thinking it was real sort of novelty and source of entertainment to watch Ron Paul go on his old man rants about how America's foreign policy is harmful on the stage of the Republican primary debates and the wild outraged reactions that would draw.

Little did I know in less than a decade we'd have a guy dissing POWs and accusing his opponent's dad of possibly being involved in the Kennedy assassination.

I personally find a shotgun in the mouth mind blowing.

You might be right. Jeb Bush was a much more fun punching bag than Joe Biden though. When Trump would call him "low-energy" or a "complete mess", everyone could laugh.

If he's too much of a bully to Joe, people will likely be sympathetic to Joe.

He got in some good digs at Hillary too.

HRC: "It's an awfully good thing that someone with the temperament of Donald Trump is not in charge of the law in our country"
DJT: "Because you'd be in jail".

He shouldn't have attacked McCain for being a POW, he should've attacked him for being a war-hawk, an old man perpetually scheming up wars for young men to die in.

Bernie Sanders vs. Ron Paul would actually be a worthwhile debate.

They'd probably just repeat their talking points to each other. They're too far apart economically to have a meaningful exchange imo. A presidential debate is no place to get into the weeds. It's about slogans and theatrics.
