The two major party candidates will debate tonight. Lester Holt of NBC is the
potted plant moderator.
The topics include "America's Direction," "Achieving Prosperity" and "Securing America." The announcement came with a caveat that the topics could change due to news developments. This debate should focus mostly on
emails domestic policy but who knows where the night will take us.

Discord is a free chat/voice client. I will be moderating the chat but I will not be voice chatting tonight most likely. Come to the chat room for real time discussion and dank memes.
IN THIS THREAD
Please don't post pure reactions like "wow" or "Did he really say that" and such without providing context for your remark. Reaction posts like that are more fitting for the chat room. The thread will already be moving fast.
Likewise no tweet dumps unless you have some actual commentary to share.
Many different issues will come up during the debate, obviously, if you find yourself getting into the weeds of a policy discussion like the merits of charter schools please take it to PM or start a thread.
GROUND RULES STILL APPLY
No image macros.
No satire links.
Don't be a dick.

It's not going to be enough.

So, I guess no pressure Clinton? I really hope that her camp has come up with a better answer about the emails since I'm sure Holt will ask the question. It's a huge nothing, but she's never been able to really dismiss it well imo and the last thing I want is Trump having something stupid to tee off on for 25 minutes.
you will be missed
Dear SiG,
Thank you.
Love,

Do not engage the Watermelons.
Yeah. I quit only about a month ago (three weeks today, to be exact), and there is no way I would be able to continue that. Not watching, and probably not even peeking in here until tomorrow. May even go to bed early to avoid temptation.
Congrats on 14 months, by the way!

This is why I smoke weed
It builds a nice wall of not giving a fuck so the anger doesn't kill me.
Brexis was enough, no more shit, 2016
Fuck.
Fuck.
I've got the debate all nice and PVRing, so it'll be interesting to be like 2 hours behind by the time I can actually watch it.
I figure if my phone lights up like a christmas tree on the way home I'll know how it's going.
Radio?
Broken clock broken clock *sobs* broken clock.

Only about 15 minutes of my commute is driving on Mondays. I probably have the data to stream on the way home, but at that point I'll still already be like 40 minutes behind so I'll just wait 'till I'm home.
Oh good, so this existential terror isn't just in my brain then.
The way this election is going, he would probably get a poll bump from that
Well he is a cubs fan and this year they are the best team in baseball. And he's been consistently hating on Trump, so nah we're fucked.

Debate 1 is going to be Commander-in-Chief Forum v.2.0.
The wording of this tempers my expectations. It sounds more like realizing connections between things Fahrenthold already knows, and less discovering something completely new which will be a bombshell.

Nah, he was speculating about times and said it could be 1pm EST, not that it actually would be.
You are giving some conflicted messages here.
You may be one of the lucky ones...
That's why we are all getting super fucked up to watch it. We have to numb our minds to be able to handle it.
I agree with Kristol. Trump is going to wing it and that never works out. Still, I don't think any outcome is going to move things that much. Things will be tight right up to election night where Hillary will almost certainly win by winning the get out the vote game.

I don't think I'll be able to watch this in real time, instead I will be busy demolishing mooks in Space Australia (Borderlands the Pre-Sequel that I picked up recently on sale).
