Whoever you support, it was refreshing to see two candidates ...

on stage addressing policy in an adult fashion. No bumptious jackass with a bad comb-over spewing invective and name-calling. No smarmy, lying fuckwad claiming to have been chosen by God. No over-programmed pimply-faced adolescent who looks like he's running to be Captain of the Safety Patrols. And no sub-group of zombies who have yet to come to grips with the fact that they're fucking DEAD.
Nope, just two grown-ups, engaged in a spirited back-and-forth regarding policy differences.

(And yes, I know that this is likely to he hijacked by partisans from either side claiming that only their candidate was the real and principled adult; but what the fuck, I had to give it a shot.)

Has been discussed so boldly. There are certain subjects you just don't talk about.. But they did. I couldn't believe my ears.
Too bad not on network TV, only expanded cable. But with the internets.. 👍
