I would love to know what substance they think he won on. Unless they mean the racism. They uh, they probably mean the racism, right?

Since Trump repeatedly came back to racism throughout the debate regardless of context, they're definitely talking about the racism.

I mean for me, just hearing him say he has "concepts of a plan" for the US healthcare system was enough for me. Get that ~~monorail~~ bill installed NOW.

I know there are dumb cunts voting for him because they like him "owning the left", but any time I see it when they're so obviously wrong, I think it must be the Russians at it again.

He didn't necessarily win on substance, but he sure spoke like he took some beforehand.

I've never seen an original thought from a con. Every meme, every joke, every quote is just a reconfiguration of something they heard a more clever person say.

Well, yeah, we all vote based on feelings. Some feelings based on things that verifiably happened in the real world, and some feelings based on ridiculous bullshit we dreamed up.

Guess which side has more of the second kind of feelings.

To be fair, the republicans do have a lot of policies—christofascist policies—but they try to maintain deniability for the main stream while winking at their cult. It’s a tough balancing act

its true tho just like the republican wing of capitalist party the democrat wing votes entirely based on the vibes of the propaganda they a fed.

Meanwhile leftists do nothing but come up with creative ways to waste their votes while pretending to be superior to everyone else.
