Debates of all ilk

Hahaha, is anybody besides me amused at Tenigma and Alex parroting each other?

Poor John. He tried to lighten things up with humor, and it failed every time. In fact, backfired badly ... even though I think it was clear his intent was to be funny, not mean. But he should have stopped after the second or third failed attempt at levity.

"Not you, Tom" was a really messed up thing to say out of the blue.

"That one" was so tone deaf, especially after insulting the intelligence of that other black guy who asked you a question. Net result: Racism, asshole.

There were about half a dozen other jokes that fell flat.

Don't quit your day job, John.

That, plus your attitude, plus your infirmaties on display, plus the sinister way you smile. Maybe those last two aren't your fault. And I don't doubt your attempts at humor were just that. But appearances are everything, personality is what matters to the voters.

Nixon won the debate against JFK for those listening on radio. Nowadays, John, everyone watches on TV.

You were Nixon.

BuBye.
