Can someone explain to me how this week’s presidential debate was anything more than an embarrassment? Can someone tell me why anyone can look at the performance from POTUS and think, “yeah, that was a reasonable debate by a smart man”?

I’m embarrassed for my country.

We have so many deep problems in this nation, and we will make no progress on them with this guy in charge. Is life better today than it was in 2016? Have you enjoyed the last 4 years? Is the economy better today? Are you happy with the pandemic response? Do you feel better about the world today? Would you like to get back to being Americans and accomplishing great things together?

Vote by November 3.
