I plan to check Xitter a few times during, and read reputable blogs after the debate. I do not wish to subject myself to the immigrant-bashing, LGBTQ panic, and assorted "woke, woke, woke" nonsense.

Plus I'm at a cabin on one of northern Wisconsin's lovely lakes this week! Why discombobulate when I can pontoon or just have a beverage and hear the loons call.

It will be debilitatingly stupid. And largely pointless, other than getting to see how debased and irrelevant to normal life the Reputation political process has become.

Ralf pretty much took the words out of my mouth, except I don't get to do anything cool like hang out on a lake. God help you for sitting through this stream of verbal diarrhea. I've got projects in the workshop to deal with. Looking forward to your report

Agreed with the other comments. I couldn't subject myself to the combination of lies and debasing that is going to take place. Is there anything interesting about watching a bunch of hacks who have no chance of replacing the GOP cult leader try to out do each other's version of "liberals are destroying America" rap? It's all too depressing. And yet, I look forward to Dan's reporting on it.

I really want to listen to the debate, but not give ratings to Fox or the RNC. I probably will watch it after...

I really want a score sheet for DeSantis's bashing Vivek and sucking up to Trump.

The GOP has become such an embarrassment for so many reasons. Terrifying they wield so much power over our lives

Me too! I think I might try and see what bars in the area have it on. I would guess maybe the Newsroom Pub would, but I am not too sure.

Umm, what is the Newsroom Pub...????!?!?!?

It's a bar downtown (a couple blocks from the Fiserv) and is "the proud headquarters of The Milwaukee Press Club!" https://www.newsroompub.com/

I have no idea if they are showing the debate, but I feel like there is a better chance they would than most other places

Yeah, no luck (if that's what you want to call it) there
