TRUMP WON THAT "DEBATE"
I know what the polls are saying.
I know what Republican pundits are saying.
And yes, I know what the Democrats and mainstream media are saying.
That Trump lost the debate and got his butt whupped by a much younger, smarter, and talented Kamala Harris.
Well, I have to politely disagree, and I'll prove to you why in just a second. But first, I want to remind you that the only debate that the media claimed Trump won in his entire career, was the debate that sent Brandon packing. The media, Republican and Democrat pundits, and the polls all said Trump lost all the debates to Hillary and Biden.
I'm not sure how they grade debates, but I'll give you my opinion on how I grade them.
It didn't matter how Trump or Kamala performed in this debate. Most voters had their minds made up. Yes, it didn't matter what Kamala said. Taylor Swift was going to endorse Mrs. Cackles. And all the Trumpsters I know were going to endorse the Orange Man.
The only voters that counted were the undecided voters, mostly the independents. And guess what? The independent voters overwhelmingly decided to vote for Trump. Polls showed that 6 out of 10 undecided voters are now voting Trump. Polls also showed that after the debate, voters trusted Trump more on the economy, inflation, the border, and foreign policy.
It didn't matter that stylistically, Kamala didn't make a fool of herself, or that Trump didn't control the debate narrative. He convinced undecided voters to trust him, and in the end, that's what counts.
Here are some other interesting facts you may want to know:
22 questions were asked at the debate.
Donald Trump answered 9 out of 12 questions, 75%
Kamala Harris answered 2 out of 11 questions, 11%.
So, how do you grade a debate? By questions answered or questions dodged?
How many times did Trump get "fact-checked?" I'm not sure, but I lost count. The answer is a lot. And by the way, all of those "facts" they checked on - were flat-out wrong.
How many times did Kamala get "fact-checked"? None!
So, if this were football, all the penalties got thrown against the visiting team, and the home team got none. Does that sound fair at all?
You know what else didn't literally sound fair? How these "moderators" phrased their questions. This was the outline of their questioning:
MODERATORS: President Trump, why are you a bad person? Is it because of a or b?
TRUMP: I'm not a bad person, those charges were fake.
MODERATORS: President Trump, please answer the question. Why are you a bad person? Is it because of a or b?
TRUMP: I'm not a bad person.
MODERATORS. Vice President Harris. Is President Trump a bad person because of a or b?
KAMALA: I choose A.
And this went on and on and on.
Now, could Trump have done more? Of course. But in my opinion, he just didn't have enough time. He had to defend himself, fact-check Kamala, and then deliver an answer. Pundits believe that Trump should not have defended himself, but I have no problem with a person standing up for their own character.
Kamala, to her credit, performed very well. All the debate prep paid off. She finally is a talented liar for the Democrat party. That's what she is. A great liar.
Last comment. Do you know why we know, and Kamala knows, that Trump won the debate? They asked for debate #2 minutes after the end.
They want a rematch! Ha! You know what? You only ask for a rematch if you lose. Plain and simple.
