Joe Biden is furious about being forced off the Democratic ticker to President, so he's publicly responding.

The Trump-Media Debate

 What does “winning the debate” mean?

In 1960, the first televised debate was between Kennedy and Nixon. If you ask people who watched the Kennedy-Nixon debate on TV, Kennedy won. People who listened to it declared Nixon the winner. In the end, Kennedy won the election. Did the debate make a difference? Perhaps.

It’s 2024, and we’re talking about the Trump-Harris debate. Thanks to the moderators, Harris performed better. However, a poll of 10 uncommitted voters went heavily for Trump.

Trump–Harris Debate Attracts More Than 67 Million TV Viewers, Most Watched Debate in 16 Years

The Sept. 10 ABC News presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris was the most-watched network debate in 16 years with an average of more than 67 million TV viewers, according to the outlet

The number does not include streaming and is a combination of those who tuned into ABC, CNN, Fox News, CBS, NBC, MSNBC and Fox. It does not include those who watched it on Newsmax, PBS, NewsNation, Scripps News, BET, Univision, Headline News, Telemundo, and Fox Business.

An average of 26.4 million people watched the debate on linear and streaming platforms.

What did people see? It depends. Deep Blue Democrats like abortion, glittering generalities, platitudes, and promises. They hate Trump and threaten to move to Canada. Aided by the moderators, she confirmed their allegiance.

For the undecided voters – whoever they may be – she ducked issues they cared about and offered no solutions to their problems. Her answers were the word salad that she’s famous for.

Trump supporters - MAGA enthusiasts - got the Trump they wanted, although they wished he would have hit Harris harder.

However, the entire audience - the big networks and streaming media- saw corporate media bias without the mask. ABC moderators were delivering rabbit punches and shots below the belt in the ring. They lied when they said Trump lied and never once called Harris on her lies. This was a debate between Trump and the Corporate Media, and Harris was the color commentator.

The information universe is changing rapidly. A large and growing part of the audience gets their information from internet sources, which means that the problems of people in Springfield, Ohio, are being told even though the Corporate press spikes these stories.

The truth is that Haitian immigrants practice voodoo and have imported their culture into the middle of America. People know it in part because Elon Musk allows “X” to be a platform for citizen journalists where information and truth are not throttled by curators at the networks and the major newspapers.

I believe that we’ve reached a tipping point. A tidal wave of information and truth is washing away the carefully constructed Potemkin Villages that the media has erected. In a way, ABC stepped on a landmine and blew itself up. The rest of the Corporate Media are collateral damage.

Harris didn’t win; the Democrats and their allies in the Corporate Media lost. Trump will win in a landslide, and ABC helped make that happen.

Who is going to win the election

Matt Taibbi - Campaign 2024, Officially Chaos

 At this stage of the cycle three elections ago, on August 1, 2011, President Barack Obama signed a controversial debt deal and headed back on the trail, starting with a pair of birthday fundraisers in Chicago. Meanwhile, Michelle Bachmann left the stump in Iowa to return to Washington and vote against Obama’s deal, saying it “spends too much and doesn’t cut enough.” This was considered campaign excitement once. Boring is too mild a word for those mechanized non-dramas of yore.

A dozen years later, the campaign is pure chaos, Pompeii after the blast. In the annals of presidential races we haven’t experienced many days like yesterday, July 31, which ended with the futures of all major candidates appearing hopelessly clouded. Forget the national debt; there are now not-improbable scenarios in which the main issues in next year’s debates, which could easily involve both nominees in ankle monitors, are nuclear fallout and alien visitation. Our leaders, who once had the election process reduced to scripts more predictable than Everybody Loves Raymond, now seem to have no clue what will happen beyond the next few minutes.
