What exactly was said?
I’m not sure what the world is going to, shit, or hell in a hand basket. Either way, I’d say this is pathetic. Why is it that out of the entire population of the USA, we have this old fool running the show? Without further pause for commentary and disbelief, here’s the transcript of the 2024 Presidential Debate.
Here is the edited transcript of the Presidential debate for accuracy:
Joe Biden: “Making sure that we’re able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I’ve been able to do with the, uh, with, with, with the COVID, excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with. Look, if we finally beat Medicare. The 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden, folks, how are you? Great to be here, thank you.”
Moderator: “And please welcome the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump.”
Donald Trump: “We are very, very close to World War III, and he’s driving us there. Kim Jong-un and President Xi of China, Kim Jong-un of North Korea, all of these, Putin, they don’t respect him. They don’t fear him. They have nothing going with this gentleman, and he’s going to drive us into World War III. You want a World War III, let him follow and win and let Putin say, ‘Do what you want, NATO.’ I will have that war settled between Putin and Zelensky as President-elect before I take office on January 20th. I’ll have that war settled. People being killed so needlessly, so stupidly, and I will get it settled, and I’ll get it settled fast before I take office.”
Joe Biden: “The only person on this stage who is a convicted felon is the man I’m looking at right now, and the fact of the matter is he isn’t. What he’s telling you is simply not true. The fact is that there was no effort on his part to stop what was going on up on Capitol Hill, and all those people, every one of those who are convicted, deserves to be convicted. The crimes that you are still charged with, and think of all the civil penalties you have. How many billions of dollars in civil penalties for molesting a woman in public, for doing a whole range of things, for having sex with a porn star on the night while your wife was pregnant? I mean, what are you talking about? You have the morals of an alley cat.”
Donald Trump: “I didn’t have sex with a porn star. Well, I took two tests, cognitive tests. I aced them, both of them. As you know, we made it public. He took none. I’d like to see him take one, just one. And you know, we knock on wood wherever we may have wood, that I’m in very good health. I just won two club championships, not even senior, two regular club championships. To do that, you have to be quite smart, and you have to be able to hit the ball a long way. And I do it. He doesn’t do it. He can’t hit a ball 50 yards. He challenged me to a golf match. He can’t hit a ball 50 yards. You can see, he is 6’5″ and only 223 pounds or 235 pounds. Well, you said 6’4″ 200, well, anyway, that’s… anyway, just take a look at what he says he is and take a look at what he is.”
Joe Biden: “Look, I’d be happy to have a driving contest with him. I got my handicap, which when I was Vice President, down to a six. And by the way, I told you before, I’m happy to play golf with him if you carry your own bag. If it’s a fair and legal and good election, absolutely. I would have much rather accepted these, but the fraud and everything else was ridiculous. And if you want, we’ll have a news conference on it in a week, or we’ll have another one of these on in a week. But I will absolutely, there’s nothing I’d rather do. It would be much easier for me to do that. Then I’m running again. I wasn’t really going to run until I saw the horrible job he did. He’s destroying our country.”
Donald Trump: “There’s no evidence of that at all. And I tell you what, I doubt whether you’ll accept it because you’re such a… the idea if you lose again, you accepted anything. You can’t stand the loss. Something snapped in you in your loss the last time. I was recently in France for D-Day, and I spoke to all about those heroes that died. I went to the World War II Cemetery, World War I Cemetery he refused to go to. He was standing with his four-star general, and he told me, he said, ‘I don’t want to go in there because they’re a bunch of losers and suckers.’ My son was not a loser, was not a sucker. You’re the sucker, you’re the loser.”
Joe Biden: “What I’m going to do is fix the tax system. For example, we have a thousand billionaires in America, and what’s happening, they’re in a situation where they, in fact, pay 8.2% in taxes. If they just paid 24%, 25%, either one of those numbers, we’d raise $500 billion in a 10-year period. We’d be able to right wipe out his debt. We’d be able to help make sure that all those things we need to do, child care, elder care, making sure that we continue to strengthen our health care system, making sure that we’re able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I’ve been able to do with the COVID, excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with. Look, if we finally beat Medicare.”
Moderator: “Thank you, President Biden. President Trump?”
Donald Trump: “Well, he’s right. He did beat Medicare. He beat it to death, and he’s destroying Medicare. We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We have never done so well. Everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us. We got hit with COVID, and when we did, we spent the money necessary so we wouldn’t end up in a Great Depression the likes of which we had in 1929. By the time we finished, we did a great job. We got a lot of credit for the economy, a lot of credit for the military, and no wars, and so many other things. Everything was rocking good.”
Joe Biden: “The idea that they’re going to… I’m not proposing that everybody, the millionaires, pay 1%. 1%. So no one… I would not raise the cost of Social Security for anybody under $400,000. After that, I begin to make the wealthy begin to pay their fair share by increasing from 1% beyond to be able to guarantee the program for life. I passed the most extensive, most extensive climate change legislation in history. In history. We find ourselves… and by the way, black colleges, I came up with $50 billion for HBCU, historic black university and colleges, because they don’t have, they don’t have the kind of contributors that they have to build these laboratories and the like. You got to ask these people to put up the money. We’re over a hundred billion dollars more spent, and it has a bigger impact on them because of location, because we have an ocean in between. You got to ask them.”
Donald Trump: “As far as Israel and Hamas, Israel is the one that wants to go. And he said the only one who wants to keep going is Hamas. Actually, Israel is the one, and you should let them go and let them finish the job. He doesn’t want to do it. He’s become like a Palestinian, but they don’t like him because he’s a very bad Palestinian. He’s a weak one. I’m the guy that organized the world against Iran when they had a full-blown intercontinental ballistic missile attack on Israel. No one was hurt. No one Israeli was accidentally killed, and it just stopped. We saved Israel. We are the biggest producer of support for Israel of anyone in the world, and so that’s, they’re two different things. Hamas cannot be allowed to continue. We continue to send our experts and our intelligence people as to how they can get Hamas.”
