When trump* went after Hunter, I admit I wish Joe had brought up trump*'s kids cancer charity theft

[Siwsan]

I would NOT have been able to restrain myself from throwing that back in his increasingly flushed face. Especially given that the kids were in the audience. But Joe is a much better human that I claim to be.

1. Biden was more responsible and would serve NO purpose

[Siwsan]

2. Hence, him being a much better person than yours truly

It was the first thing that popped into my mind, during that exchange. Joe was likely biting his tongue. That's a skill I struggle to master.

[Hoyt]

3. Seems to be obvious response, not to mention their grifting in other areas while trump is Prez.

[packman]

4. I kinda wanted Joe to walk over and punch him in the mouth

My hate level for Trump went up many points when he started bringing Biden's children into that shit storm.

[Siwsan]

7. HA! Whoopie just kind of said the same thing. She'd have brought up his miscreant kids

Ok, my words but her point.

9. to be honest, about 10 minutes into the debate with trump bullshit and interruptions, Biden

needed to say. "Please Mr President, SHUT THE FUCK UP and at least TRY TO ACT PRESIDENTIAL. THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SHITSHOW STOPPER

[Iliyah]

10. And watch a grown man cry? . .

5. Wasn't That Donald Trump Jr. Who Was High Off His Ass at the RNC This Year?

We can do this, also.

The Clown-in-Chief would do well to leave Biden's children alone regardless.

[PSPS]

6. No. Whataboutism implies the initial accusation is true.

[Siwsan]

12. I know - it's my lack self control. And temper. And lots of other stuff.

My approach would have been 'this coming from the guy whose kids stole from a children's cancer charity and can no longer be on the boards of any charities, and must take classes on how to NOT steal from a charity!?!?!?

But like I said. I'm not as good a person as Joe. Maybe his surrogates can handle that one.

8. It seemed to me the thought crossed his mind but

He didn't take the bait.

[PRETZEL]

11. I thought the same thing

actually glad he didn't go there although I doubt anyone would have blamed him.

But Trump opened the door and you can rest assured that over the next week or two, the internet is going to be flooded with all the grifting and misdeeds committed by the Trump kids.

[Progressive dog]

13. So many crimes, so little time.

Joe did the best he could without acting like that psychopath.
Trump belongs in a cage, he is a clear danger to our democracy and our lives.

[woodsprite]

14. I bet he caused the kids to poop their pants a bit when he replied

that "Look, here's the deal. We want to talk about families and ethics. I don't want to do that. I mean, his family, we could talk about all night. His family's already-........"

[Ilsa]

15. Joe could remind trump, "Every time you go after my kids, you

remind the audience of the despicable things your kids have done with foundations and children's charities."

[global1]

16. The Problem Is That Trump And His Family Have Broken So Many Laws That It's....

hard to remember all of them and put them to use in situations like this debate. Compound that with Trump's pathological lying and his filibustering talking over both Biden and the Moderator - one should just let Trump go on and hang himself. He seemed to be debating himself vs debating Biden - if you can even call the whole mess a debate in the first place.

[Ilsa]

17. Or remind trump that no one in his family has ever served in the US military.

And trump's grandfather left Europe to avoid the draft.

[Siwsan]

18. One did - his late brother Fred, Jr. was in the Air National Guard
