Basically, this was just a typical example of how nobody should take the usa seriously.
Imagine what it would be like to read a few pages of pareto and then watch this debate. They literally got in an argument about who was better at golf.
Biden called trump fat and a whiner. Both suggested their opponent was criminal. Neither could agree on basic facts.
But their priorities were rather clearly implied. Trump criticized immigration for stealing the jobs of black people. Neither mentioned what concerns white people might have.
Biden actually tried the cliche that politicians should not legislate on woman's health. Which of course translates to politicians should have no say on whether murder should be illegal. Well if that isnt part of their job, what is?
It's a dumb and fake cliche, but it does open up an interesting paradigm. Why should politicians have any say about social security then? Leave it to economists? Why should they have a say on ukraine or israel? Why not generals? What actually is the job of politicians? Just making sure black people have jobs?
Honestly, I do not see how anyone could watch that debate and still have any respect for the usa, despite how convinced biden said he was that it is the best county. Regardless of which candidate you think is unacceptable (because it has to be one or the other)...it was also a former president. These apparently are the greatest leaders that this 'country' can muster.
