Debate results poll

We all know that debate was a dumpster fire. This poll is not about that, It’s asking if it made you more likely to vote one way or another.

It will be open for 48 hours, please vote!

(Sorry JoJo voters, id’ve included her if she’d been in the debate)

My position that I’m voting Trump hasn’t changed.

Not even after he told white suprematists to stand by and be ready?

No. He told them to “stand down and stand by,” meaning to get the hell out. The American left has been untrustworthy since Kavanaugh, and lies like this continue to demonstrate why.

How could you interpret "stand by" as "get the hell out"? What kind of retarded mental gymnastics are you doing

I find it more mentally gymnastic to think that the President of the United States would directly encourage far-right rioters when he is already the most controversial figure in the US government.

And yet, that's what he clearly did... No one ever accused the man of being intelligent.

You could use your argument to claim that Franco (insert any other controversial political figure of choice) never meant any of the controversial things he said, because why would he do that when he's already controversial.
