Scuttlebutt from around town about the debate [View all]

I went to breakfast this morning at McDonald's. In this town, if I want to touch base with homeless people I go to Burger King but if I want to overhear Trumpsters I go to McDonald's. Well today I hit the jackpot.

There were these two Trump supporters talking their usual BS, and one says, "Hey did you hear the democrat (sic) debate last night? I bet the Democrats are going to put all their money behind Biden. What a way to go. That's why we have who we have now." (That comment surprised me.) Then he said something totally unexpected, "None of those candidates were any good... except one. It was... the one I can't pronounce... you know that... gay guy. He was really good... the only one who looked and sounded like a president. I liked what he said."

I'm just passing this along. The comment about Biden is not my sentiment. But for these Trump supporters to say something that sounds like they are done with Trump and actually liked Pete just blew me away.
