Is there a lot of excitement in your area about the debate?

Asked by jca2 (16634points) 1 week ago

Where I live, the Democrats and the Republicans are both holding watch parties.

How about where you live?

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen such excitement and buzz around a Presidential debate .

Yes. We have viewing parties all over.

I don’t know if “excitement” is the right sentiment. People are VERY “interested” here. I have been invited to several watch parties; however, I chose to decline because most were right wingnuts & in this election I just can’t keep my mouth shut & I truly believe that they have the right to believe what they believe & they feel it is their duty to bully. I refuse to be bullied & I won’t shut up. So, I decided that I’m better off staying home.

No, most here think Kamala is a joke and not even a legitimate candidate due to covering up Bidens mental issues.

So most people in your area are gonna vote for the guy with mental and intelligence issues @KNOWITALL?

Yes. Pretty much all of the Democrats I know think Kamala is great and a few people who live here I know wanted to do watch parties, I have no idea how that turned out I had no desire to do a watch party, even though I did watch with my husband in real time.

Immediately after the debate and the day after my friends were all excited, they felt she did great. Posting on facebook.

I too often don’t see Trump like other Democrats do, so it’s annoying to be around it, even though I agree with a lot of the criticisms. I also have a hard time listening to Kamala. I think she did pretty well in the debate though. I liked her in this debate much better than previous debates, hearings, and speeches that I have seen her in. Although, the DNC speech I thought she did great.

I am bluuuuue @KNOW. Don’t care what the majority here is.
Last night we sat on our porch with the flag waving, church going neighbors and had to suffer through them blaming “Their Obamacare insurance” for their medical bill woes.”
The ACA is not a type of insurance. Sigh.
