Quite the epidemic. A veritable tidal wave that the country needs to be shocked into. Because "they" are overrunning the country, and "they" have been reported (once, and unverified) as eating cats, and dogs, and all sorts of pets.

When you launch that comment, with those facts. and that context, in front of 70 million people, do you know how stupid it looks?

When you have swaths of verified complaints/ instances -- you have a point.

When you base that comment off a single, unverified report, you look stupid.

When you say how true the comment is, and can only scratch up one, single, unverified report, it makes you look like you will say and do anything to protect your dude being honest and straight up -- and not the broad rhetorical windbag dumb*** that his statement underscores.

And really makes the defenders look even more stupid than the original stupidity of making the original comment in front of 70 million people.

So the city manager and the guy who addressed the city council about it were lying when they said they had heard this from multiple people. And you know they are lying how? I live a short distance from Springfield and to be honest I never heard of it prior to the debate and could care less whether the Haitians eat cats, dogs, ducks or geese. But to utterly dismiss the claims because Trump repeated it and then insinuate that anyone who believes it is stupid says more about you than anything else.

If the idiot kamala brought this up, the press would be going door to door and PITA would have already made a statement.

Maybe. But she didnt, did she? She let the orange head dude say it, and when confronted about it said 'but thats what they said on television.'

“Maybe” my a$$.

There was a story on this garbage before Trump brought it to light and there’s even more of a story now.

Im glad you are such the ace predictor of things that never happen and their results.

Yes, yes it truly has ballooned and grown. No doubt. Maybe just not int he way you think.

Trump mouthed off a really dumb ass xenophobic wildly misleading (if not downright false) remark in front of 70 million people. And yes, it truly has grown because of that. Absolutely.

One candidate was not like the other. One claimed people were eating dogs, cats and pets. FFS!

But you know they aren’t. Just because you know. Right?

Clairvoyant are ya?

No, dude. You don't prove something isn't happening. You prove it is. There has been ZERO proof of it happening.

Reports from residents on the ground say it is happening. The City manager---who claimed there were no such reports a few weeks ago---was literally on camera in a city meeting indicating he's been getting these reports since March. I dont know that its happening or not---but I do know the reports are real.

I still have yet to see any "proof" of Russia Russia Russia---but you still believe it and the mere accusation that such a thing was "real' was good enough for you and your left wing press buddies for 4 years. At this point, there is more substance to the "they are eating the dogs" meme than the the completely debunked "good people on both sides" and "blood bath" memes that the left still trot out on a regular basis.

But the issue isnt 'Trump mentioned this as a onesy and twosy', the fact of it being either very rare, or maybe even nonexistent (as you point out above) cutting against his message. Trump yelled that schlock as proof positive of his 'they are overrunning us' spiel.

Rather disgusting to use it in that manner, when AT MOST it *might* be a one or two off -- but hey -- doesnt stop the xenophobic fear mongerer in chief to launch that in that way.

Bummer, he has to explain that **** away now. And look at the steady drumbeat from the followers to defend or justify it. Just above you seemingly invoke 'Russia russia russia' as some odd hat weirdo defense of the comment. Not to mention the veritable laundry list of other past 'transgressions' that seemingly chap you. And which have literally *zero* bearing on the current issue, besides (I guess) the savoring of past 'injustice and victimhood' that Trump quaffs like a fine wine.

Maybe simply say 'it doesnt happen very often, if at all' (as you do above). And follow it up with 'Trump was an idiot and unhinged to launch into it as though it was the end of US civilization' -- which is entirely Trump's point in bringing it up.

As it is, Trump did Trump -- but in spades. Trump yelled out some grandiose comment as somehow being indicative of the state of the issue. Which in true Trump fashion turned out to be a bald and rank misrepresentation. And turned into a rank disgusting xenophobic misrepresentation. In front of 70 million people.

Kind of a Trump two-fer. A wild ass comment that has no basis in everyday reality, and xenophobic on top of it. And a three-fer -- his followers are using *every* effort to say how it is somehow absolutely true.

Why do the moderators ask the questions? Why not do like Lincoln and Douglas and have the candidates ask each other the questions?

My guess is that Lincoln and Douglas probably regarded theirs as a debate, and their questions were delivered as good faith proponents of the idea of a debate.

If I thought either of the candidates thought the above, or thought that either of the candidates could deliver good faith questions (instead of simply polemic) —- your thought above might be on average more productive than moderator style.

I don’t hold either of these candidates in enough ability to exceed the moderator in that regard.

These Trump haters are so full of $hit. It’s amazing actually.

You/he tried the same thing after Hillary smacked him around...claiming she had an ear piece.

Was that the debate where Donna Brazile later admitted that she gave Hilary the questions in advance?

It was ONE question, IIRC. And clearly, that one incident does not in any way make this made-up story credible.

And I swear if some are not paid by Soros to hijack threads on a little bitty message board. It’s the only answer to the question why.

So....where's the whistleblower? Did Speaker Johnson get the "affidavit" in the mail yet?

Imagine being given the questions & still being so awful in the debate that you lost support among IND’s.

When you deny it based on your hatred of one man it rings hollow. TDS has got you by the balls son. Break free! Are all lawyers this stupid? Nah, I have three of them as very good friends. I know many more. They are all conservatives though so in your mind they don't count. You really are a miserable person, seek help.

Imagine being crushed so badly in a debate by a "dumb person" and still whining about it two weeks later! Or just listen to him do it live, nightly.

Crushed

The undecideds started going in his favor after the debate you idiot. It’s why the drunk whore immediately did and continues to want another debate. If she really “crushed” him and was effective, her campaign who is trying to hide the low IQ border czar as much as possible wouldn’t be asking for another shot at it.
