Still like Bernie. Never liked/trusted her cult "past." Country has had enough of cults.

I told my wife this morning that I'd much rather watch Bernie or Elizabeth Warren debate Trump tonight.

After a debate with Elizabeth Warren, Trump would probably be singing soprano.

A town in Romania reelects their dead mayor

On Sunday, 57-year-old Ion Aliman was reelected as mayor of Deveselu, Romania. A member of the Social Democrat Party, he won by an overwhelming landslide. The only glitch is that he had died 10 days before the election from COVID-19.

From AP:

His death came too late to remove his name from Sunday's ballot, but the news of his passing spread fast through the village, home to just over 3,000 people…
To honor the man they admired, hundreds of Deveselu villagers went to the polling stations Sunday and voted for Aliman anyway.
After preliminary election results showed late Sunday that Aliman had won 1,057 out of the 1,600 votes cast in Deveselu, a large group of villagers visited his grave to light candles and pay their respects. A video shared widely on social media showed people with flashlights and candles gathered around Aliman's grave, some of them saying "This is your victory" and "We will make you proud, we know that from somewhere up there you are watching."

I am not so sure about this William, and I really have a problem with Bill Barr also.

But it looks to me like the inserted date is January 4-5, 2017.  In other words the meetings lasted two days or the notes were composed over two days.

The question is why did one set have a date and the other did not.

Doesn't it run from 9:00 - 10:30 E.T.?

Says 8:30 here, though the bloodletting may be delayed by a pre-show to juice up the spectators.

OK, yeah:

Tonight's schedule:

8:30-9p ET: Pre-debate show, hosted by CBSN's Elaine Quijano 9p-10:30p ET: CBSN streams the first 2020 presidential debate After the debate wraps, Quijano will return with post-debate coverage and analysis.

Apparently the days of Edward R. Murrow are officially over:

“That was a hot mess, inside a dumpster fire, inside a train wreck,” CNN anchor Jake Tapper said. “That was the worst debate I have ever seen. It wasn’t even a debate. It was a disgrace. And it’s primarily because of President Trump.”

CNN correspondent Dana Bash put it even more succinctly: “That was a xxxxshow.”

Some of you guys are real sports. I can’t imagine having to pretend Sleepy Joe has all of his marbles every day for months on end. Soon it will be over and you can go back to arguing wether LHO was wearing a Fruit of the Loom T-shirt or a Haines T-Shirt while being escorted around the DPD.

"Anybody but Trump."

"Anybody but Mike Pence."

"Anybody but Mitch McConnell."

"Anybody but Tom Cotton."

And, finally:

"Anybody but Bill Barr."

But, wait!

"Anybody but Betsy DeVos."

And you can go back to the Proud Boys.

I've carefully watched all of the Presidential debates since Ford and Carter in '76.

This was, far and away, the worst-- mainly because Trump violated the rules and Chris Wallace couldn't shut him up.

I kept wishing they would turn off Il Douche's microphone while Biden was speaking.

And, as expected, Trump lied non-stop throughout the debate, about everything from Ron John's ludicrous Hunter Biden "investigation" to his bungling of the COVID crisis.

Most notably, Trump refused to answer the $750 question about his taxes, and he told the Proud Boys to "stand by" during the election.

Will you shut up, man?  🤥
