The best analysis of the presidential debate

Bret Stephens There was nothing small about the debate. Watching Trump was like being cornered by some oversize, overbearing drunk at a party who spills his beer on you while insisting that Lee Harvey Oswald is still alive. It was the single most despicable political performance by a sitting president in American history. Trump didn’t debate, because he doesn’t know how to debate: He interrupted, taunted, hectored, bragged and ultimately beclowned himself. The debate will be remembered for the contrast between this grotesque parody of a president and his dignified, well-comported, blessedly coherent challenger. Biden didn’t get to speak as much as he deserved, but when he did — most effectively by looking straight at the camera — he hit home.

  1. i fully agree...trump and his crooks should have been hung long ago. buddhism is rellevent because it is today not 3,000, or 800 years ago. what matters is the heart and the eyes. not stories irrelevant to today. wake up people the world is in desperate trouble. the spirits have run rampant !
