A Debate Retrospective

 The media coverage of the first presidential debate emphasizes the fireworks but there was plenty of actual news that gets little notice. Here are some real biggies:


1. Biden wouldn’t commit to opposing his party’s efforts to pack the Supreme Court if elected. Such a move would fundamentally destroy the court. 

.  Biden said Antifa isn’t real but it is just an idea. It makes me wonder how an idea riots every night in Portland and how an idea assaults police, burns buildings and loots storeS

3.  Trump said he’s president for four years and has a duty during that time to appoint new Supreme Court Justices  Biden has no answer

4.  Biden actually said he never supported the Green New adeal  Biden’s website says the opposite  Biden was lying  

5.  Biden says he supports green energy and will phase out fossil fuels  That’s lunacy  where do we get power if there’s no wind at night so no solar or wind power

6.  Trump pointed out he achieved the lowest unemployment ever for minorities and Biden responds that Trump did nothing for minorities   Biden just ignores reality

7. Biden has no economic plan   He had a good opportunity to present his plan but didn’t do so  All he discussed was raising taxes which clearly won’t work  

8  Biden said for the umpteenth time that Trump has no plan for healthcare  Biden ignored the outline presented by the GOP at their convention  Trump didn’t explain his plan well though so Biden got by with the lie
