This debate on Tuesday will give Biden and the Dems an opportunity to give a load of truth

to FOX viewers and counter every lie told by Trump in person. The fate of the nation may well rest on Biden's ability to get more true information to Trump supporters than FOX has ever done. He should take some pointers for Kamala on how to prosecute the case against FOX and Trump for the long history of lies and gaslighting. The viewing by so many low-information Trump toadies means that just one single truth that they never heard could make a big difference. Hope against hope.

But then, I remember the Trump supporter who was told that the ACA that she loved was the same as Obamacare that she hated and that Pres. Obama was responsible for her having healthcare. Shocked by the facts, she soon recovered to say that she didn't care. She still hated Obama and Obamacare. Yeah, we have to deal with that too.

Being of limited ability to accept reality and deal with it, they rather make a storyline in their minds which does not comport with reality. The "truths" in their beliefs has always been their weakness, as it is built on their bias, fears and wishes. They can not secure their reality and end up in violence to defend it.
