The Naked Truth?
Like many others (at least according to incoming reports) Nyel and I only managed to watch last night’s debate fiasco for about ten minutes. What an embarrassment all the way around. No surprises except, perhaps, the lack of planning for Trump’s inability to follow the rules. Why in the world weren’t the mics muted for the candidate whose turn it wasn’t? (If you know what I mean.)
It didn’t help much that I’ve been reading Too Much and Never Enough by Trump’s neice, Mary L. Trump. In it, she tries to explain why her uncle is the way he is. (As in who cares?) I doubt if I’ll finish the book. Like watching the debate last night, reading the whys of Trump’s personality disorder(s) seems absolutely pointless.
He is what he is. The fact that even his critics and opponents still measure him by a “normal” yardstick is the big travesty. Why would the Democrats and Mr. Biden agree to this series of debates in the first place? Did they really think that “this time” Trump would follow the rules, tell the truth, act Presidential, or even behave as a gentleman?
Most of all, did they expect that Mr. Biden would come out on top by contrast? Where have they been for the last three and a half years? No matter what, Trump is the scene stealer wherever and whenever he appears. For better or for worse, it’s always all about him and, whether we like it or not, the “nice guys” finish last. It’s a lesson we seem unable to learn.
Hi Sydney,
Hope your neck is getting better.
I had to give my feelings on the “debate”…..only watchEd a little & got so annoyed because couldn’t understand Biden’s response over the roaring mouth. I can’t for the life of me understand WHY anyone would want him for another 4 years.
After last nights debacle, I felt like crying. I’m worried….
Just wanted to thank you for your thoughts..agree ?
Stay well,
Betty (Tom, too)
