Country is fine. POTUS candidates are the problem.

Welcome to DEMOCRACY!

Trump “untethered from the truth.”

A very discouraging debate. Had hoped Biden would somehow surprise everyone favourably but that didn’t happen.

And what a depressing country my state is in! Have you seen the economy?!?!?!

It does feel like (ETA: the general public might think) Trump won this debate. Biden seemed (completely realistically) old, while Trump seemed reasonable (only relative to past behavior, and seen through certain rose colored glasses).

I guess it’s all about expectations.

I don’t think I am an outlier as I know plenty of people in my age group that show better than Trump and Biden. I am just an average guy for my age.

I truly wish that the choice of the POTUS only affected the American people. Sadly, though, that choice affects the rest of us.

I considered if it’d have been better to turn off the volume and put on closed captioning. Biden’s enunciation was difficult to understand several times.

Other countries might even chip in with Canada.

That was painful to watch. I saw some clips this morning.

Trump lies all the time but Biden did not come out well.

So, what do I see when I turn on the computer this morning?

And lest there be concerns about that being a right-wing view…

Time to flee Gilead before they close the borders?
