I prefer Presidential candidates who didn't think Jeffery Epstein was a "great guy."

As a Canadian, I can say that when the US, under Trump, decided to impose tariffs on Canadian lumber, everyone I knew in the US complained about lumber prices. When we decided to just stop providing lumber to the US, it did become cheaper HERE, because we would rather let people here use lumber the US clearly did not want.

Those tariffs turned out to be illegal under existing agreements btw. So not only did the US market pay for the tariffs, but they ended up being levied by Canada as fines for the illegal move by the US.

crime is going down...but crime being recorded and splashed on the internet is going up...giving an illusion that crime is rampant.

He brags about his great business knowledge and abilities but doesn't even understand that tariffs are paid by the consumer. But then he has had 6 bankruptcies. One of them his casino! LOL...

Some US born criminals have 34 convictions, and may get more.

Something like this needs to be held immediately after the debate is finished. Don’t let people walk away with his lies in their hearts.

Thank you, Mr. Rattner, for your common sense explanation. Hopefully, all American voters are listening.

[Deni-xv]

Dear Lord, we are really discussing if a criminal will fix the crime rates. We really got the expert in crimes to lecture all of us what to do with crimes!

Young people get out there and vote and save our country!

Excellent reporting. This is the type of reporting that needs to be done to counteract the false claims on a daily basis.

KAMALA played with Trump like A CAT LADY WITH A LASER POINTER!

[eddymahon]

I heard Laura Loomer was a huge factor in the debate. She was his main advisor. Thank you Laura for obliterating trumps campaign..👍👍

Breaking it down with facts. Thank you!

How can America even think about electing someone who led seven businesses into bankruptcy. No company would hire him as CEO. His understanding of business is abysmal.

Import tariffs are paid by importers, not foreign countries, which is a well-known fact. As a result, it's ultimately the American consumers who bear the cost through higher prices. Trump’s misinformation is so ignorant.

[markorr]

The really sad thing about this is that facts just don't matter to these people.

[philblum]

BRILLIANT! More of this kind of reporting, please!

[GoodWitchIntuitiveTarot]

Excellent! I love MSNBC, You are the very best! More Rerun this as many times as possible! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I know an undocumented immigrant that refuses to go over the speed limit. He is doing all he can to not break the smallest laws.

Thank you for giving the uninformed public facts, not fiction. Keep up the good work 😊
