....How do you bet on who wins a debate? Who decides who won? There's not a trophy to point to.

Polymarket is stupid but it's not so stupid that the terms of the bet wouldn't be laid out. It's likely going to be according to a specific poll or set of polls.

Imagine vote stuffing those polls so you could win your bet though

It says who wins "according to polls", and poll results are solid enough for people to bet on. And they even clarify exactly which poll they're using in the fine print on their site. (I actually didn't expect that.)

Trump could ramble on with slurred speech for an hour, shit himself, and pass out on stage and there would still be a huge percentage of people that claimed he won.

I can see the headlines already. "Trump shit himself and had a stroke live on national television during the debate. Here's why that's bad news for Kamala Harris."

"I didn't see what I needed out of Kamala Harris. When President Trump punched his own face there was a very obvious bruise forming. His opponent didn't attempt to administer first aid. President Trump had to wait for the moderator's assistance."

Donald Trump: "My VP MD Pants is a great guy. Great guy. Terrific guy. Immigrants, they're coming from Mars! Mars! And Barack Hussein Obama is just letting them in. Just letting them in. I beat him in 2016. We won again in 2020, but Barrack Hussein Obama cheated. He's too old, they chased him out of the race, and now I'm facing Joe Biden. But then they said "Joe Biden is a woman." It's becuase he went to school. They're changing the gender of school kids. That's if they aren't killing them out of the womb. Now they want to have abortions at 62 weeks. When the baby is a year old! An abortion at one year, folks. Anyway, JOe Biden changed his gender, and his race. Now she's a black woman? When did Joe Biden become black? Someone should investigate that."

NY Times: "Donald Trump is prepared for space invasion and raised concerns about gender transition at a young age. Kamala Harris has yet to respond."

Genuinely surprised she shook his hand.

He was too, he didn't walk over.

He already brought up insane asylums.

Also did he get like....

Is this a really bad new haircut?

Also his makeup looks horrible tonight, very clear dividing line with the white and orange. Who fucked up here lol.

And referenced Springfield Ohio, which I believe is the basis of those racist Haitian Immigrant rumors.

Harris sounds good so far. Competent and confident, unafraid to call out his bullshit.

The Aurora thing is also confirmed fake.

(I'm 2 minutes behind, the Walz thing wasn't a Livestream into the debate lol)

Did they just unmute his mic without first giving him time to respond?

That video with the people in that apartment complex was fake?

It's a scheme by the landlord. The tenants came out about it saying it was nonsense.

Not too into the jingoism from Kamala, but Trump sounds completely sauce-less so far.

Trump sounds like he is about to explode already.

Interesting. I didn't hear about that.

Aurora Police has also stated that there was no takeover of the complex.

It appears to have been an out of state landlord company that used Venezuelans as an excuse to not maintain the premises until they became unlivable.

This is going better than I had even hoped. He's twitching like hell rambling.

Harris crushing him on women's health rights, he can't even look her in the eye.

He's doing that thing where his tongue starts falling out of his mouth.

Also hell yeah in the active fact check.

And now he's taking about post birth abortions again.

But he was quoting the former mayor of "West Virginia", which is wrong. The quote that led to the post birth misinformation comes from Ralph Northam, the former governor of Virginia.

And that quote was from an interview he gave to talk about the types of tragic circumstances that can occur with childbirth. He was discussing non viable births in which the child could not survive.

He's owning himself so hard on abortion here.

"We don't have to discuss it."
"We're giving everyone what they wanted."

These ads are writing themselves.

The asylum thing is especially baffling because like...you'd think someone close to him would've corrected him by now. It's happened so many times.

I can't believe he won't just say he would veto a national abortion ban. Just lie. This is the one time you need to lie. How can this be the one time you won't lie??

Same reason he backed down on his vote in a day.

The moderators are literally trying to move on form abortion and he won't let it up. This is suicide on his part.

She is flogging him.

Thank you so much Joe for stepping aside.

Oh man she got him talking about rallies and he took the bait so hard

HE TOOK THE BAIT

you fucking fool

They can't correct him unless they want to risk being kicked out of his inner circle.

Lol. Right? I knew what she was doing ending with that and it worked perfectly

Holy shit, he's lost his mind. I'd give anything for 60 more minutes of this.

Just keep taking the bait Donald...

Fuck talking about the border bill, I want to talk about MY rallies.

He's talking about eating the pets. Holy shit.

they are eating our pets!

Ugh talking about republican endorsements is an L from me.

Talking about his former staff not supporting him is good though.

I am so happy about this fact checking.

Anyone who's interacted with really old people will know that getting them to do something they don't want to (especially if it involves changing habits) is like pulling teeth. Biden stepping from the Presidency needs to be studied.

Fraud! Fraud! Fraud

Here's the moment where we are reminded how important Pennslyvannia is without naming the state.
