For the Trump v Biden Debate we have around 200 users chatting. For the Trump v Kamala Debate we had around 160 users. I’m not sure how many people will be interested in the VP debate.

I am playing it on this channel because the other channel uses peertube, which can potentially share your IP address to other users. This channel will not have peertube.

I will have news commentary playing in the channel before the debate and potentially after the debate as well.

    I mean, the “Tiananmen Square” that Americans think of is just one picture on one day, but there were student protests for at least three months right? So he could have just said he was there during the student movement of '89? Daddy football was pretty garsh darn flustered tonight for sure.

      Right, but the protests and the aftermath were pretty much over by early to mid-June. He didn’t even go to Hong Kong until August, if I remember correctly. Sure it may have been a topic of discussion while he was there, but he was not actually there during them. Just seemed incredibly silly that he kept trying to maintain the facade. He could’ve simply admitted he misremembered/misspoke (which he did sort of eventually do, only to immediately backpedal it and repeat the original claim again, to the moderator’s confusion). It was an absolute softball of a question and he completely fumbled it.
