Debate....lets go!

#Debate2020
First question: Supreme Court.

Trump says he has constitutional right.
Praises ACB.
Biden: People have say on who is on SCOTUS. Not going to get that chance. Already voting started.
First lie: Biden.

Says ACB said she thinks the ACA is unconstitutional. Not true. She said the mandate might be unconstitutional.
Biden right on pre-existing conditions. But highly debatable whether court would overturn.
Trump rightfully says RBG said the President has the right during his term.

Nice factoid.
isAccording to a new analysis by the is HHS, 50 to 129 million (19 to 50 percent of) non-elderly Americans have some type of pre-existing health condition
First COVID argument:

Biden attacks Trump on 200k deaths.

Trump says Biden would have done worse.
Trump right on Roe v Wade...it really is not on the ballot.
Next question: Health care.

Trump and Wallace fight over the question.

Trump questioned on what his plan is.
Trump makes up some stat on drug prices that makes no sense.
Biden on public option:

Would be Medicaid auto enrollment.
Biden calls Trump a clown.
"To put it another way, Biden only had critical words when asked about Medicare for All, but he didn’t bluntly state he would veto it.

The statement is partially accurate but takes things out of context. We rate this statement Half True."
Biden now asked about packing the court.

Biden is a coward on this. He should say he won't do it.

But he can't.
Biden is so dumb on this. He should just say he won't. He could always flip flop later.
Next question on COVID.

Biden nicely lays out facts on cases, deaths, etc.
Trump in retort:

Hits Biden on not closing the border. Attacks China. Then lectures Biden on death counts in China.

Hits Biden correctly on closing the border.
Trump is right...even Dems like Cuomo and Newsom did praise Trump at times.
Biden argues the economy is shut down because of Trump.

That is ridiculous.
Biden makes the emotional plea about deaths. That is effective.
Biden says we don't trust the vaccine.
Wallace asks about the vaccine.

Trump says Pfizer, J&J, Moderna all say the vaccine can come quickly.
Biden rightfully hits Trump on Easter end, the bleach, etc.
Wallace asks about Harris undermining vaccines.

Biden: Scientists do not work for him.

Trump: I spoke to the scientists in charge.

Biden: "All lies"

Again, this is not good for vaccine trust.
Biden insults Trump on intelligence.

Trump attacks him back.
Wallace: Question on opening.

Biden: We need a plan.

Trump says Pelosi and Schumer blocking.

Trump says Biden wants to close down the economy.
Wallace: about masks.

Trump: I wear it when needed. Then makes fun of Biden's mask.
Biden incorrectly says Fauci never got masks wrong (he did, early on).
Trump claims outside is fine for rallies.

Biden: Attacks Trump on distancing.

Was hoping Biden was going to attack outdoor rallies...that would have been fun.

Then called him a fool.
Wallace on economy:

Trump: Greatest economy ever. Biden wants to close things down. Harmful for depression, drugs, etc.. Says trust people.

Biden: Hits him on personal taxes.
Biden says people on front lines are the ones losing jobs (who is he talking about?).
Biden talks about small businesses and restaurants closed.

But how is Biden going to bring them back if the disease lasts one more year? Doesn't make sense. Europe is proving that strategy isn't going to hold up.
Biden is wrong: All those tax code advantages were OBAMA ERA TAX LEVELS.
Trump: I've done more in 47 months than you have done in 47 years.
Biden avoids tax question: Should you raise taxes during a recession?

Biden doesn't seem to want to answer it?
Wallace: Obama's last 3 years had more job creation than first 3 years of Trump.

Trump: They had slowest recovery.

I think point Wallace there.
GM and Ford are gone?

What is Biden talking about?
Trump: China ate your lunch, Joe.
Biden: None of that is true.

Er...
Biden saying it isn't true...he is hoping that the media will ignore the fact that...it probably is true.
Biden: This isn't about my family or his family, but about your family.

Great line.
Wallace on Charlottesville:

Biden talks about Floyd, the White House protest that Trump cleared, etc.
Trump: Attacks Biden on Crime bill (Biden interrupts now, LOL).

"Superpredators"

Kind of surprised he didn't attack Biden re: Clarence Thomas.
Trump attacks Dems on Portland.
Trump says Biden doesn't want law and order.
Biden: Most police officers honorable...bad ones have to be held accountable.
Biden: Violence never appropriate.

Good.
