I might watch just to see if one candidate answers a question with a karaoke version of a popular rap.

Intentionally wild predictions about what will happen in the debate.

Mike Pence will admit that he believes Trump tried to have him lynched, he will refuse to denounce Trump as a candidate still.

Chris Christie will get booed and declare "your boos mean nothing, I've seen what makes you applaud" in a perfect impression of Rick Sanchez from Rick & Morty.

Tim Scott will start to speak and Ron DeSantis will interrupt and declare it's not proper to teach that Tim Scott exists. Then Ron will have a transgender person brought out and attempt to sacrifice them.

Vivek Ramaswamy will spout at least 4 difference conspiracy theories. Immediately after the debate he'll claim he never said any of those things.

RFK Jr will walk out on the stage. Someone will inform him he's technically running as a Democrat. He'll blame vaccines and 5g signals for his confusion then give a Nazi salute and walk off the front of the stage.

The camera will somehow blur every time Asa Hutchinson because he's so forgettable that even the camera forgets to focus when on him.

Doug Burgum will skip the public middle man and just Venmo Biden directly on stage.

Nikki Haley will have to repeatedly remind everyone there that she is indeed running for President and despite being a Republican does not consider herself property of her husband. Pence will say that Mother disagrees with her there.

I'll probably spend my time searching my body for jock itch before I watch those bastards fumble over basic questions trying to out-bullshit each other.

I can almost guarantee that one of the designated attendees from the Trump campaign (Cokey, KimG, etc) will absolutely heckle Chris Christie while he's speaking.

Debates would mean more if audience is eliminated. Not this one but debates in general.

I have no plans nor desire to watch. Maybe if I thought any of these clowns actually had a chance I might watch, but this is a total waste of time. Besides, TVland is having an Andy Griffith marathon. I just love that Barney Fife.

Trump does an interview on some deplorable news station or podcast like a Joe Rogan or maybe Fucker Carlson interview. Nobody but us watches the debates because they’re all watching Trump. AT P&N nerds are literally the only people watching the debates.
Lowest rated Debate in history occurs.
Hmm should be interesting to see the viewership of each.

The only thing you missed was Pence leading the audience in a spirited chant of "Hang Mike Pence!"

I removed Fox News from the viewable channels on YouTubeTV so it's great, I don't even have to flip past those Nazi's faces. I can just read synopses and watch a few highlights.

NGL, I just tried to watch it. Spectrum app has no fox news (just fox playing master chef). Fox news app live isn't available on my subscription. Nothing live on youtube. WTF, this is like charging to enter a church. Morons.

The Majority Report and David Pakman are both streaming it live on YT.

Right off the bat the faces of the clowns on the stage was priceless during the nation anthem. Real Americans expressing such worship of the country.

I caught 10 minutes free on the Fox app and that was it. It was also enough.

I'm beginning to see the light watching the debate, It's words that will solve out problems, Next up what about the Trump indictments. Could be fun. Killing bad guys figures in there though.

Live with democratic (sane) commentary.

I caught Pakman late, so I had to watch FAUX News Live and was seconds away from blowing my ever loving brains out without hearing from someone like Pakman giving his sane opinions alongside the telecast.

I tried to watch at 9. Fox started by trying to bash Biden before debate. Vivek promised to lower gas prices by more drilling. I turned off at that point. Telling rubes the President controls gas prices.

Nobody there to explain oil being a global commodity. Keeping their people stupid.

I’ll watch a replay of Parkman simulcast or get a take from MSNBC. Wonder why they are not allowed to just replay live with commentary.

Because Fox paid for it, and they want to get their advertisement dollars before another network can get access.

I almost quit. Their propaganda machine is working full time. And the lies, my gawd, the lies. They can only be viable if they just tell lies non-stop.
