    You might want to check your notes:

    "In recent days, the violence, threat to life, and destruction of property that we’ve seen in some parts of the country jeopardizes the rights and safety of all citizens, including peaceful demonstrators. It has to stop. We’re seeing people who are exploiting this situation to pursue violent, extremist agendas—anarchists like Antifa and other agitators."
    - FBI Director Wray

    ~ I would say that is the impression most people paying attention came away with. This is a choice between radical socialist government or "old school " independent America land of opportunity - not hand-outs.
    Unfortunately Wallace did not bring up China.

    There is no evidence of widespread mail-in voter fraud, period, and there won't be any in November either. Trump of course will claim it, if he loses. Of course if he wins, then he will say that the election was fair.

    You have it wrong. After Trump was elected there was a real concern he might turn moderate or even left, let alone stick to a lot of the conservative promises he made. Since then he has kept his promises and shown it wasn't just lip service like Biden and the other swamp rats.

    That was exactly my concern with President Trump: that he'd govern as a moderate or a leftist. I think I owe something of a "thank you" to the Democrats for making sure that hasn't happen.

    I think that's a fair assessment. I doubt this debate had any affect on anyone's opinion. They both had a bad night. I'm also fairly certain that an honest fact check would put Biden on the losing side, which kinda surprises me.

    Doesn't need to be fraud. The debate moderator (and Trump was right about debating Wallace. Nowhere near as good of a performance as his hosting the 2016 debates.) Pointed out that there's irregularities.

    Even 20% of 80 million is tens of millions of "irregularities". This is not an ideal method for the election. Even if Trump weren't running.

    Trump got sidetracked before he actually condemned them, it was probably his worst moment of the night. To be fair though, he has condemned them several times previously, including immediately before the infamous "fine people on both sides" comment.

    I did not watch the entire thing but a lot of "I this and I that" from Biden, no?

    A vice president with Presidential aspirations would never allow his son to be dishonorably discharged. Just another case of using his office to pull strings.

    He couldn't even tell the Proud Boys to stop instigating. That's how weak he is.

    Trump was discussing the poll workers not the proud boys. I know it was hard to follow the debate but it wasn't that hard.
