The bookies preferred Biden. His odds have shortened slightly, Trump's drifted.

Second quote is interesting "no huge errors came from Biden" Two more debate, if Biden doesn't mess up (lets be fair, that's about a 50/50 chance) he should win. Still a long way to go.

Trump doesn't know how to stay quiet for long enough to let someone else mess up. I think he knows he's supposed to do that, but he's so strongly compelled to hear his own voice that he just can't. How can Biden make a mistake if every time he starts saying anything, Trump talks over him?

If Trump drifts to 2/1 I'm taking those odds

Got the ****er at 5/1 last time but I only put Ł50 on him.

True.

I would snap up 5/1 now lol, but wouldn't risk on 2/1

Someone in the UK placed a Ł200k bet on Trump. Think that was about 3/4 weeks ago.

I could be tempted to spaff Ł100 at 2/1, just to cheer myself up if he wins. I only bet on novelties (politics and celeb crap) but I wouldn't place any bet at 6/5 let alone Ł200k . I put Ł80 on Gary Bussey in CBB at 5/6 back when I didn't really have it to lose - the bet was a no-brainer but it still wasn't fun, not enough of a profit to be worth the risk. 2/1 is about as low as I'd go.

Biased moderator Chris Wallace trying to help Sleepy Joe out only made Trump do his job better.

[caprimint]

I was gonna bet on him last week at like 6/5 and now he's on 11/8 already, hopefully keeps drifting

[Swan]

He's been steadily drifting for about a month now.

Obligatory brag that I had Ł10 on Helen Wood at 33/1. I like to bring that up occasionally .

Putting a muzzle on Trump until it's his time to speak would be a start. Although if he keeps supporting White supremacy in these debates, I'll be glad to give him the rope to hang himself.

[USA Election 2020: Debate pulled in 65 million TV viewers]

[The TV viewership for Tuesday's clash was lower
than the 2016 debates, but final streaming counts are pending.
The 2016 showdown between Mr Trump and Hillary Clinton broke TV records,
pulling in 84 million viewers.
That one shattered the previous viewership
record of 80.6 million set in the 1980 Reagan-Carter debate.
On Tuesday night, around 64.7 million
people tuned in on eight channels for the
first primetime political duel between
the White House contenders, according to Nielsen.
Mr Trump on Wednesday responded to the
preliminary numbers by saying
"some day these Fake Media Companies are
going to miss me, very badly".]

...I got to watch some of their debate yesterday../...well most of it, I think...what it showed to me was two people who should never, ever be president...it’s incredible that these are the two contender in the ring...

...obviously, Trump has to go though in the interests of the USA and the world...

[JerseyWins]

Everyone's saying how much of a **** show this was & I heard/saw parts of it and sure seemed like that's the best way to describe it

When is the next one? I actually kinda wanna watch

...the most cringeworthy reality TV show ever that you’re totally addicted to...?...

[Ammi]

...it was a bit like one of those playground fights of primary school children.../...how they’re sometimes portrayed anyway...

[Ammi]

...I mean, this is to decide a world leader...

it shows that trump is not the only problem with the american political system, he is just a symptom. It doesn't select the best candidates for the job

It feels quite recently MORE broken though... at least within my lifetime. Even ol' Gee Dubya was far more presidential than this pantomime. I'm utterly baffled that Biden ended up as the opposition to Trump. I'm not saying it should have been Sanders either - I like him more but let's face it he's a hair away from the retirement home as well. Where are the respectable, authoritative candidates??

Reagan got elected ... a B movie actor fgs and he quite clearly had dementia

[Niamh.]

How on Earth are those two man babies the best possible candidates in America? What a joke
