Lawrence: We live in a country where most commentators declared the liar the debate winner 

❤❤❤

@@shannonlee1558 lol what? Your fact checkers are ridiculous and you never do it to democrats. Biden can barely stand and speak for himself. You're the issue in this country.

Seems pretty fair to me, Joey still won. Unless we are implicitly believing the idea that because Joe forgot some words, that means an insurrection came out on top. Which frankly, couldn't be me.

@helenmackinnon2408 - You don't knock down a man by a "one time TV appearance " President Biden has done a good job in his 3 and 1/2 years, so we're not going to judge him on a "one night" appearance We need him, VP Harris and his team to run that Pathological Lier rTromp back to mar a lago WE CAN DO THIS 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎for women's rights, Freedom and Democracy. Let's keep America Free

Biden needs to come on with Lawrence

What is worse is that they will see the clips of Biden not doing very well and will not see clips of Trumps blatantly lying and going off topic.

Fair Winds...

That's right, what do people think this is, a democracy? Sit down and shut up! Biden shall be coronated Democratic presidential candidate, and noone is allowed to express anything other than positivity over this!

@@sallyshipwreck4315 V💙🕯️🤝🇺🇲

That's because they had Biden hooked up to electrodes like Frankenstein to keep him alive.

That part.

That’s what’s at stake…Americans need to wake up…seriously 😢

We don't need no steenkin' dictator

Sooooo, You choose democracy but you CHOOSE the man who like Stalin, mao, hitler, and Putin try to jail their opponents? YOU choose Briben and his lies and crime and dementia and record inflation and record gas prices and wars? You should wise up, Whoopi.

Trying to hide the truth when the safety of the country is at stake is not wisdom but foolishness.

Biden is not a good guy. Don't be fooled by the friendly old grandad act.

And stop calling that loser Mr President! It's disrespectful to the real president in our White House.

Yeah that Mr President to djt was disgusting.

I’m doing the same thing! They let Trump lie about everything

Would you prefer a trigger warning at the start of debates, cupcake?

SAME!! 💙💙💙

The same way someone wins if their dead.

Tfg, his voice reminds me of a cheese grater to my ears.

Trump talks down to every group of people to a point thats demeaning. When he visits other countries he has no class, he brags about himself and is condescending to other world leaders. How do people like him in the US. Do they have very low self esteem?

Yea, it was painful to watch Trump spew BS to the American people.

What former guy? There weren't any transgenders there.

Exactly! Not one truth at all! He Only told lies!

Exactly! He only spoke lies!

Can you please list the lies both told?

Lying in , or for, public Office needs to be a crime. The US will not heal till then.

@@WilliamLamont82 well said!

@@feffygracie Trump is terrible even with a teleprompter

Same way as not paying your contractors or taxes makes you a business genius

I feel like I'm living in that movie.. Don't Look Up

So being aggressive, uneducated, uniformed, loud, woke, and stupid is more important nowadays than being rational, calm, and logical? Usually the soft spoken people are the ones that have the real answers we actually cite our sources and we don't insert fake statistic figures just to prove our point. Our egos are not as large that's what makes them better leaders. They research the case before they draw a conclusion about a case. We don't think with our feelings and anger is still a feeling 😊.

It is Most of the time that way - the loudest Person in a room is the best and Most shining - doesnt matter if it is true what ther person says . If you are more quite stuttering or something you get overlooked or not taken serious ..... no matter the facts . It seems for a lot of people that loudness always comes first because they must be right . We have seen that during covid

😀

oh he stabbed with a poison tipped arrow

Trump is likely the only President ever to not read expert analysis providing what the President must know every day to keep the country safe.

You got about six more months😅😅 Trump 2024😅

@@a.w.thompson4001 JB still believes the Charlottesville "good people on both sides" lie, as does a lot of his supporters. That is objective proof that him and his supporters cannot acquire information unless it is hand-fed to them by their handlers. Where are JB's aides to simply say, "yo, that's been debunked for years."? If he can't even get the basics right, good luck with the complex stuff. If he can't debate without having his hand held, good luck with world leaders.

You think Trump is the only person to lie?

🥲 😂

@@NeveauRock Not the only one, no. But the quantity & "quality" of his lies far outweighs any other President, to include President Biden.

We had a world class liar as our Prime Minister here in the UK.....finally we are rid of him but although we are having a General Election here and a big change of Government is coming many of us are nervously eyeing what will happen in your country....we pray you do not end up with that odious, lying, misogynistic fool Donald J Trump....the world would be in a far more dangerous place for us all....God help us all....

The golf course is where the Deals/Money are made

glenda be thankful that trump spent far more time on his golf course than he did in the oval office...the damage he inflicted on the country in the little time he spent in office might well have been irreparable...so in this case golfing proved to be very beneficial for the country

Nice! Unofortunately though, you are not the sole decider of the next election. It is selfish to go on like this when so much is at stake... I'm not a fan of Biden but of course compared to Trump he would be a good president. The problem is the same thing can be said of a tin can. But a tin can wouldn't get elected, and I'm worried Biden wont be either.

​@@darrylbradleyso PROJECT 2025 is the answer to you

Trump just want to stole money with his economy plan and put more chaos he’s mad 😂😂😂

Because, as we all know, a Democrat is a person who's afraid to take their own side in a real fight. You've heard the old joke about someone bringing a knife to a gunfight? Well, an American Democrat wonders if they might be going just a bit overboard if they've brought a bed pillow to a gunfight. I envy you more than you can know. I wish I could be a non-American.

Because they're too busy trying to change fighters... Foolishly I might add...

The reason Dems are not going on the attack is because they are stupid.

ive been asking myself that same question for years my friend. Years! Dems are never as aggressive as the Republicans 🤨

You fact check him on the SPOT! Joe had a bad night. He is still a great man.

Look up Gish Gallop. That was Trump's strategy the entire "debate. "

… when the "moderators" are really the tag-team for the liar? That was an ambush, not a debate. This is one of @Lawrence's best.

@@katehall9812 I absolutely agree....A day later I feel a LOT better. Lawrence IS the voice of reason here.

Uh...not like Joe. That was painful to see.

I sure hope our country doesn’t face a crisis past 6pm then

It’s called having a teleprompter. The man’s brain is fried.

​@@WinstonSmith24Did you complain when Trump came down to the oval office mid morning and left for his private apartment at 5pm?

Moderators, not moderator's.

they could have been replaced by chat-gpt. would have made it more interesting. I thought the initial reaction that everyone had was ridiculous, but Lawrence is the only one I saw on the little bit I watched who wasnt in total panic mode. gavin newsom and josh shapiro also made good statements. It exposed just how bad the media is at their job, and the lack of moderation is more of a testament to how unimportant and how much of a pure entertainment product the debates involving Trump really are. Debates in theory are when the country is supposed to understand the policy proposals, presumably bcause they know a little bit about the subject themselves and can make an informed decision.. The same media who call themselves journalism , became ESPN analysts over this. I think these last 2 debates really showcased how useless they are, when Jake Tapper mr integrity , and Dana Bash, Ms. No personaliy please come on my show, its easy, capitulated to all the right wing criticism of them and cared more about appearing fair than taking what their job is, to keep the debate on course, instead of just asking. qiuestion and then letting them talk about whatever. that's what it turned into fast, it was a hastily produced and ill thought out joke. Biden knows he shouldnt have done that because there's no benefit for him. I saw he started a youtube channel, which people should subscribe to and boost the algorithm, He has to get around the media, we cant rely on the media they are showing us every single day that they dont know what theyre doing plain and simple.v. The questions were also fairly stupid too, they came out of news narrative,s not out of actual issues. This is part of the effct of the right wing media eco system dumbing everything down and the other media just selling lazy news

Really?? I've heard nothing but great things about how they did. Heard they were fair, un-biased and professional 🤷🏻‍♀️

Non biased according to Fox net work.compliments all around for aiding and abetting a malicious and compulsive liar.

I am really and truly done with CNN. The same people who offered that horrible town hall or whatever to give Donald some more free air time to do his usual vile unpatriotic shtick.

Nothing would change your mind, cultist😂

Wow Not much of a critical thinker are you

Lol😂 I guess you didn’t watch huh

Exactly I am still voting Biden!

@@jaytaylor2312 you are in a cult, nothing is going to change your mind. Commenting on this thread is pointless.

There was no debate, it was the Democrat party self deleting their political future.

Democraps are done. Bye-bye 😂😂😂

You are correct. And the Democrats are pros at gaslighting and lies!

The gas light is running out of gas. Deal with it.

Yes you can.... you call them on their lies and dunk on them. Biden didn't do that because I isn't together enough mentally to do it...

Biden had opportunities to push back on Trump’s lies. But he refused to do that. Why? Was it stupidity? Was it poor strategy on the part of his handlers?

Terrible men? Very embarrassing Men not 🚫 comment Em out him 🤡

My favorite too. He always has encouragement for us. And he does it by telling the truth and giving insights about something it’s easy to miss. Rachel and Joy used to be favorites too, but Rachel seems to have gone soft and lukewarm and Joy just seems arrogant. She needs to soften up just a little, like she was before she got her own show.

That is the one point I definitely wanted to correct Lawrence on, yes.

He was watching the riot on TV. It looks like he had a smirk on his face.

You actually believe this. You probably think Biden is fit to serve. I feel sorry for you.

Exactly. He waited until he had concluded the insurrection was going to fail before he told the insurrectionists to go home, and did so at that point so that he could claim that he was on top of things once they got out of hand, and also tell McCarthy "I guess they're more upset about the election than you are, Kevin." It doesn't seem that McCarthy responded, "They're only upset because you told them to be upset. Otherwise, this crowd wouldn't know anything more about election fraud than they know about classical music composers from Denmark."

@@sklee1256 🤣

That part

We sure were assaulted by lies spewing quickly, like a fire hose, a tsunami on the debate stage

@@chloekey8043 lies run sprints....the truth runs marathons.

All that debate did was show what a sorry liar he is and has always been his entire sorry life.

@@monal.pendley3946 I prefer someone who does the job and has a work ethic versus someone whose entire energy goes toward spin and gives melodramatic speeches. It is remarkable how so many dummies get elected that way. Hitler knew how to do that… his speeches, massive marches, even a designated cinematographer…all of which made entirely too many German citizens feel like they were part of something big and important. Terribly seductive form of propaganda at the expense of those who feel overlooked until a ringmaster for Barnum and Bailey cons them out of their freedom.

optics are literally the entire purpose of a presidential debate. if truth, integrity and so on are what matters- the people who cared about these things didn't need the debate to know that trump's a fascist liar.

Biden lied the entire night lol.

Without the use of teleprompters, Biden has proven to us he can no longer speak with coherence. He can't. And if he goes through with it, debate #2 will seal that truth for everyone to see He needs to step down from his candidacy - for the good of the nation.

Lawrence, carrying on in the style and character of Walter Cronkite.

Exactly. Especially Joy Reid, very obvious she wanted Biden to be out to favor Kamala Harris to be the replacement. First American black woman to be the leading candidate for the presidency. She cannot compete with Trump, she is not popular among voters.

💯👍👍👍

FJB

Tell that to MAGA. They think tariff are the best thing for America.

RFK is currently the only viable candidate, if Joe Biden stays in the race he's going to lose. In a three way race RFK actually helps Biden, but Biden still loses to Trump. If this election was truly a referendum on democracy itself, if Trump is an existential threat, Biden would drop out, or the DNC would replace him with someone who can win.

👍 Perfect!

Do not be another R.B.Ginsberg catastrophe...drop out now and force them to choose a winning candidate.

Exactly, that is,what he must resign.

@@rwh1818lol

As a moderate liberal living in Michigan, I absolutely did not watch the debate. Why would I? There is only one choice when there is an obvious traitor on the stage. The only thing watching would do is irritate me because listening to that a$$hole say Democrats are pushing for "abortion after birth" without any pushback is disgusting. And I could go on and on about the bs his trailer park cult believes.

My mom is 76 and she is absolutely panicking about the debate. I didn't watch it because I neither wanted nor needed to. Biden is a good man and Trump is a mentally ill pathological liar. Easy pick. But yes, this program may help to calm my mother's fears. She is absolutely devastated that her grandchildren might have to live under that psychopath Trump again, and will spend a lifetime cleaning up after all of his horrible financial, social, international and domestic policies. I'm still hoping that the sane Americans outweigh the crazy ones.

@ladydi876-- 100% agree! I'm beyond frustrated with our country's overall lack of respect for our 'elders' and their wisdom gained from their life experience. Biden's administration has wisely brought together a mix of generations, cultural & life experience which has guided them in their accomplishments. More time is needed to make more progress & help prepare others to continue & defend our Democracy and rights from the MAGA extremists' Project 2025 intentions.

If you didn't watch the debate you don't what you are talking about. Biden is actually senile. Any doctor will tell you that. OK let's do math now. 51 million people watched the debate. Let's say half support Biden. That's 25.5 million. Of those viewers, Biden could afford to lose 0.4% of them. Biden won the election buy 100,000. Do think that after watching that Debate Biden lost .04% support? Of course he did. Come on man.

Are we not...all flawed. President Biden admits that and continues to do good. The ....other...what does he give???? Only takes.

Agreed. Then I tried to figure out why the focus on "performance" and I realized that it might be because a group of people who are concerned about the way they look on camera might be using that as the measure rather than anything substantive.

Great paragraph man, enjoyed reading it for sure…

He is. I’ve been watching Lawrence O’Donnell for years. I rarely disagree with him.

Lawrence's context and analysis are outstanding, elegant, and easy to understand. I wish Biden had someone on staff watching the show to benefit from Lawrence's perspective and experience.

As an American, I am horrified by the actions and statements by Trump and his allies and supporters, and acutely aware and ashamed of the threat they pose to the world. My only consolation is that my dad, who landed on Normandy Beach on day 2 as a rare white officer willing to command black soldiers, and my mom, whose great joy was teaching English to immigrants, never saw this happen to our country.

​@@paulrhodes6564 You can't vote. You live in Russia.

Agree. Joe is limited to being truthful, the other guy wouldn’t know how to talk without lying.

I think President Biden was shocked by this as well.

Joe Biden said the border patrol union endorsed him. That was a lie.

Trump is a practised liar. Donald Trump has no conscience or moral compass whatsoever…so, of course he can do well in a debate…because he is constantly setting his opponent up to defend the truth against his landslide of blatant lies. An exhausting endeavour for the truth teller, because the lies are hurled so fast and furious…there is no time for the truth teller to process and defend them all, and especially with the pressure of a two-minute timer ticking. A psychopath can outwit anyone with their lies…but it NEVER makes the psychopath…a ‘winner’.

It's like playing chess with a pigeon. The bird struts around the board, knocks over the pieces, makes a lot of noise, craps on everything, then flies away squawking that he won.

Me too. Rachel and Nicole disappointed me so much that I can’t watch them again.
