Donald Trump cannot handle losing. At Tuesday night’s debate, two candidates stood on the stage: one focused and calm, talking about policies and the very real concerns facing Americans today. The other ranted, screamed over everyone, and talked about nothing but debunked conspiracy theories and wild lies. On Wednesday, the criticism seemed to be getting to Trump as he lashed out at everyone on Twitter.
Many more people would have died from the China Virus if Sleepy Joe were your President. He didn’t even want me to close our Country to Infected China until TWO MONTHS later, when he said I was right. Now he likes to say I didn’t close up “fast enough”. Just another politician!

Just like he did on the debate stage, Trump was all over the place with different topics, from James Comey to Bernie Sanders’ supporters. His endless grievance parties, talking about how unfair everyone and everything is for him, is wearing thin. He’s been in power for four years and is still blaming everyone but himself for COVID-19, a failing economy, and now his disastrous debate performance.
CBS News/YouGov snap poll: 38% of voters said the debate made them think better of Biden compared to 24% who said the same of Trump.

Trump’s taunting about “radical left Democrats” is in reference to Joe Biden saying that his healthcare plan is not the same as Medicare for All and his climate change policies aren’t the Green New Deal. Voters knew when they went to the polls during the primaries and selected Biden as the Democratic candidate that they weren’t getting a Bernie Sanders by another name, and Sanders has repeatedly endorsed the former Vice President. To Trump, however, a politician must appease his most radical voters.
That’s why he can’t quite bring himself to denounce white supremacist groups like The Proud Boys.
The truth is that Trump failed badly at Tuesday night’s debate and he’ll use any excuse to deflect from that. Twitter was well aware of this. Read some of their comments below:
