Lord have mercy. Trump didn’t even talk about any policy and went off the rails yet again. People are tired of his antics.

[ericmolaodi]

Believing own lies is becoming a Republican thing now.

This chick is nuts in the green. Trump sounded like a lunatic

[meshplates]

Trump girl is seriously unbelievable. Trump was trounced plain and simple.

Trump blocked the bill on imagration their talking point souds stupid !

The funny thing about the woman in green is that you can see, when you look in her eyes, that even she doesn't believe what's dribbling out of her mouth. She has to say these things, she's not enjoying it, she's going to cringe every time she remembers them, and whether Trump wins or not, she's going to feel some level of shame that she fought in his corner.

Christin Davidson has a chronic case of cognitive dissonance! Trump's pronouncements were deranged! "They're eating your pets!" Seriously? At that point Trump erupted into a laughing stock!

[carlosifer]

Even the dogs in Springfield know Trump is talking bullocks 😂😂😂

Lady in the green, which debate did you watch? A tie, oh yes, are you kidding me!!! VP Harris clearly won this debate by far.

[Tom-kphh]

I beg bring back the republican lady when Trump loses

[banbeocca]

Optics are important in debating. VP Harris crushed the little guy. She took control at the hand shake.

[sputnikmoonchild]

Trump DID NOT look tough or mean! He looked like he was battling severe flatulence!

[SpectorCorp]

It's freaky how the blonde lady has convinced herself. It's nuts.

[cyndiross]

This blond is "out to lunch" Kamala didn't look mean.

[kevinwellwrought]

Harris gave Trump a good beating in this debate.

[cyndiross]

She definitely gave us a reason to vote for her and her plans. Overall, she is working for all the people, not just the rich.
And i think she is real and caring.
Harris looked good. Trump looked old and anger.

[cyal]

Blimey, what is the point of giving air time to blatant nonsense such as spews out of republican talking heads these days? Seriously, it's insulting to your viewers to have people like this on.

[tlhdsiu]

The lady in green sounds very
dishonest.

[Rk.]

Gave the woman in green way too much time to spout nonsense
