Here we go, the first Presidential debate between Biden and Trump begins at 9 PM Eastern/6 PM Pacific.

How to watch it:

https://www.cnn.com/2024/06/25/politics/how-to-watch-cnn-debate/index.html

"The CNN Presidential Debate will air live on CNN, CNN International and CNN en Español, and via streaming on Max for subscribers and without a cable login on CNN.com. CNN will make the debate available to simulcast on additional broadcast and cable news networks.

You can also follow CNN’s live debate coverage on CNN.com, which will include analysis and fact checking."

"According to parameters set by CNN in May, all participating debaters had to appear on a sufficient number of state ballots to reach the 270 electoral vote threshold to win the presidency and receive at least 15% in four separate national polls of registered or likely voters that meet CNN’s standards for reporting.

Polls that meet those standards are those sponsored by CNN, ABC News, CBS News, Fox News, Marquette University Law School, Monmouth University, NBC News, The New York Times/Siena College, NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist College, Quinnipiac University, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post."

Edit And that's it! Thanks for watching everyone!

tl;dw:

Consensus is Trump didn't so much as beat Biden as Biden beat himself.

The real loser is CNN who failed to fact check anyone, and there were obvious fact checks on both sides.

Good lord all trump does is do “this guy over here…” bs and drags up every right wing meme piece of “fact”, and they’re all garbage.

Good news. Biden might be getting angry enough to go super Saiyan. Won't be good for the talking points but those are out the window with the endless lies anyway.

[-] Wxnzxn@lemmy.ml 8 points 7 months ago

If he gets angry enough to get some more strength into his voice and inflection, who knows, he might not crash completely. It seems a little different than in the beginning at least right now.

[-] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago

Its over, we lost. Biden lost to fucking trump. I want to blow my brains out right now.

They lowered expectations for Trump way too much.

And if Biden doesn’t get it together immediately, it’s time to consider a new candidate. This is a disaster so far.

Well my stomach hurts after watching that. Open convention for dessert anyone?

[-] Nobody@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Biden has to bring up Trump killing the border bill for political reasons. That should have been a top 3 talking point.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Does Biden sound sick to anybody else? Like he has a sore throat?

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

To me he sounds like his throat is sore from talking. He's been campaigning a lot.

It is just Bullshit bullshit bullshit out of Trump. It's fucking wild.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I'm kind of reminded of that West Wing episode, where Leo McGarry keeps leaking stories about how bad he's going to be. That seem to be exactly what Trump did this last week or two. Or the people around Trump probably. Cuz as much as he's lying piece of shit he's staying on his message, which admittedly I wasn't sure he could do. On the other hand Joe Biden is a train wreck. This is extremely demoralizing.

[-] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 10 points 7 months ago

His message is blatant lies and ignoring the prompt.

Biden is debating. trump is giving an unhinged speech.

So Trump's going to be reelected. I don't even know if I want to keep watching this this is just sad

[-] WoahWoah@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

This is just embarrassing. I can't believe Biden is the democratic nominee.

This might be good, he pissed off Trump, now Trump is going off on his paranoia. If he keep him in that mode, that might help.

[-] Roldyclark@literature.cafe 8 points 7 months ago

Afraid to watch thanks for summarizing for me yall lol

[-] vladmech@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

“Ushered in by the police” CNN is a failed news organization for allowing this to be said unchallenged

[-] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

We need another epidemic at this point.

Great answer for Biden on Ukraine and NATO. Hopefully, he’s starting to wake up.

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 8 points 7 months ago

Stop with the data. Joe! Short and sweet because your stutter hits.
