How do you feel about results from the debate?

This sub was in the middle of creating an account for a google spreadsheet to track how likely voters felt about the debate when my phone died. I will share them in the next hour. <br><br>On a personal note, I feel a few things:<br><br>First, I feel very proud that our group was immediately able to come together to collaborate on a project. The speed, organization, and camaraderie of our group is what will fuel a 🚀 comeback. We have like 5000 comments created in the last hour and many of them are people asking questions like “how do I get involved in the campaign? How do I join the canvassing team? How do I donate”. We are an impressive group of people.<br><br>Second, I feel like got a glimpse of how Donald might have felt during his first presidential debate. He knew that he had to make a strong first impression because he was the underdog going into the debates. Is it my imagination or did he just seem more energetic, focused, and aggressive last night?<br><br>We got pummeled last night.<br><br>I think it is obvious that he has spent a lot of time preparing for the debate. He has a lot of attacks that he uses to deflect questions that aren’t going well. <br><br>I think he might have honed in on a few phrases that poll well. He mentioned the phrase “the radical left is coming for you” at least once a minute. I also think he learned to stay within the boundaries of the debate rules. Do you remember back in the day when Trump would say something like “well I don’t know how you did it but you definitely cheated” when he was upset about a Republican debate. He seems to have gotten a lot better at keeping his composure and staying out of trouble.<br><br>I also created a thread called “We are getting pummeled” and it was upvoted a lot (I think the most upvoted post I have ever created in this sub). It was also downvoted a lot. got a lot of personal attacks on me for the thread. I am sorry if this thread is equally as upsetting. I am not the biggest fan of Trump or anything but I am trying to be truthful and objective about his first debate performance. I think that this sub is a great group of people and it seems like we are all trying to work together for a common goal. I offer constructive (but brutal) criticism here because I think we can do better and I think we will do better next time. Also, personal attacks aren't cool. <br><br>Lastly, I don’t know what will happen in the next debate. I guess we will see what happens. I think that this sub is going to do a great job planning for the next debate. I think that we will be as organized and efficient as possible. Donald has been doing this a lot longer than we have. He is a lot more experienced. I think he might be up 2-0 by the time we fully get his number. I hope I am wrong, but I don’t think we are going to figure it out in a week.
