Thursday night was the second democratic party 2020 candidate debate and it was about as inane as Wednesday’s debate. The highlight of the evening, if you can call it that, was when Joe Bide said if he were elected president, the first thing he’d do is defeat Donald Trump. I know he’s old and senile, but surely he knows that if he were president that means he had already defeated Donald Trump close to 3 months previously. Rock on, Crazy Joe.
During the debate moderator Chuck Todd asked each of the candidates what would be the first thing they would if they were elected president. Shockingly, they all had terrible answers.
“Ending gun violence,” said Eric “Duke Nukem” Swalwell.
That wasn’t a great answer considering that Swalwell wants to disarm Americans under penalty of nuclear annihilation, but at least it was an answer, which is something not everyone else can claim.
“Climate change and the lack of economic mobility (mumble mumble),” said some guy who I have no idea who he is.
Okay, the question was: what is the one thing you will do first if elected president? That dude’s answer is that he will do climate change and the lack of economic mobility. So he’s going to change the climate and make economic mobility lack? WTF?
Kirsten Gillibrand’s one thing is a bunch of vague stupid shit like making sure that families can thrive in the workplace. Kamala Harris said she like Gillibrand’s answer and took it as her own because she’s an unoriginal piece of garbage. Steal from the best, not a ditzy blonde with 0% support. Harris actually added that the one thing she will do in addition to the multiple things Gillibrand said would be “DACA and guns.”
Bernie Sanders clearly didn’t understand this simple question because he answered that, “There’s only one or two issues out there.”
Chuck Todd tried to remind him of the question and Sanders answered, “We need a political revolution. People have got to stand up and take on the special interests. We can transform this country.”
In Bernie’s defense, he will never be president so he doesn’t need to have a coherent answer as to what the first thing he would do as president. It’s like asking me what the first thing I would do as Miss America.
Then it got to Sleepy Creepy Crazy Joe Biden. He started out by name dropping Obama, because as an elderly racist, he wants you to know he has a black friend. Then there was this:
“The first thing I would do is make sure that we defeat Donald Trump. Period,” said Biden.
The 2020 presidential election will be in early November of 2020. Whoever wins that election will be inaugurated almost 3 months later in late January of 2021. In the unlikely event that Biden wins that election, by the time he assumes office, he will have defeated Donald Trump nearly 3 months previously and yet his first priority will be to make sure he defeats Donald Trump.
I would suggest his first priority would be to take his medication, because this is a f*cking insane answer. He either doesn’t understand how elections work or is planning a tactical military strike to kill Donald Trump on his first day in the White House. Either way, this is disqualifying. Sure, Biden’s racism, lunacy, pedophilia, and hair plugs are good reasons why he shouldn’t be president, and this is another one.
Sadly, Joe Biden wasn’t alone in not understanding anything about anything. John Hickenlooper said the first thing he’d do as president would be to “make sure we don’t reelect the worst president in American history.” No worries there. Obama has already served 2 terms and can’t run again.
There were a few more anonymous democrats who gave answers, but none of them good. Pete Buttigieg said he would “fix our democracy” which actually might be a thing if a gay 12-year-old Alfred E. Newman impersonator is elected POTUS. Then there was the Asian guy who said he’s going to give everyone $1,000 a month which he claims will fix climate change.
Earlier I wrote about Wednesday’s debate and how hard it is to get a straight answer from a democrat. The Thursday dems proved this once agin. They were given a softball question that they should have knocked out of the park, but not a single one of them said anything that made sense or wasn’t completely stupid.
