This is what those debates are like. It's like a condensed version of a conversation. And you also have an actual physical time limit. Like you have X amount of seconds to respond and then they start talking over you. I know. Your time is up. Excuse me, Mr. Senator. Mr. Senator, your time's up, Mr. Senator. Yeah. Like, okay. I know. That's finished the sentence, you fuck. It's no way to really understand people. And you have to be a forceful moderator. But then when you are a forceful moderator, you're like injecting yourself into this conversation. America doesn't want, that's a good way for people to hate you. You want people to hate you? Yeah. To be a shitty moderator. To be a moderator in a presidential debate. Everybody's gonna fucking hate you. Everyone's gonna hate your guts. It's one of those weird, ancient holdovers from the past that is wholly and completely unnecessary and in fact, probably kind of fucking dangerous. Because you don't ever get a chance to see what a person's actually like. You just get a chance to see their show. Well, you also- It's a Donald Trump show. Like, Donald Trump had a show. I'd lock you up. You'd be in jail. Like, that kind of shit. Right. And everybody cheers and roars. That's a show. It's who's best at television. Right, right, right. And he's a fucking television guy. He's a television star. He's way better than those clowns. A star. Yes. And he's- It was like, why- He's afraid of insulting people. When he came through and was debating against the Republicans in that run-up to, in all those debates, he got up there like a comedian. He was like, I'm going to talk about- I'm in the moment. I'm going to call everything out. I'm not going to play this BS of all your little etiquette that you've got going on. And he was a star. He was a star. He knows how to work it. He still does. This Biden thing that he's doing now. He's constantly making fun of Biden, calling him Sleepy Joe Biden. And he shows like some misquote that Biden said. Think about, we're here for the facts, not the truth or something like that. What is the crazy Biden quote that he had that everybody's been making fun of? Listen, I say stupid shit all the time. Everybody does who talks a lot. If you talk a lot, you're going to jumble your words together. I do it all the time. Of course. But if you're running for president, man, they find something like that. A jumble here, a jumble there. You better be ready to defend yourself. That's right. But that's the thing. Someone has to act the way he acts. You've got to be in the moment. You've got to be honest. You've got to be a comic. You've got to be a comic. Trump, when he was running, he reminded me of the comics from Long Island. Big loud insult comics. Biden tells Iowans, we choose truth over facts. What was I mean? That seems like he might have wrote that. Truth over facts. I'd like to see what he said, how he said it. How did he say it? Because he might have been like, we choose truth, choose truth over facts. And that's not good. When we're together and ladies and gentlemen, it's time to get up. Everybody knows who Donald Trump is. Even the supporters know who he is. We got to let them know who we are. We choose unity over division. We choose science over fiction. We choose truth over facts. So folks, if you're interested, join me. Look, we all mess up a line here and there. He seems like a remote control with a shitty battery. You know that one where you're like, it's kind of getting the volume, but not quite. It kind of changes the channel. You got to move it around. Bro, he's got so little juice left in the tank. I know. Donald Trump will chew him up unless he gets a good doctor. You need a good doctor. He needs to get on steroids immediately. Don't you think Trump takes something? For sure. Yeah, you can't be that age and not be able, you got to take something. Bro, he's got billions of dollars. Why wouldn't he take something? Of course. Supposedly, he has been on some form of amphetamine prescribed by a doctor in the past. That gives him the sniffles? That's why sniffling all the time? It could be, but he also could have a cold. I mean, he's fucking 80 years old. He's the president of the United States. I'm sure a fairly stressful job. But there was a journalist that was claiming that he had some sort of diet pill prescription and even brought up the very pharmacy where he got it fulfilled. Who knows if it's true? Who knows if it's true or not?
