I made myself sit through the entire debate, and could not believe how the "moderators" handled it. Yes, Biden had a really bad night. But I expected more from CNN, whose political experts should have pushed back on the outrageous lies of a megalomaniac sociopath. Yes, Trump is a sociopath; check the definition if you are not sure.

In November, we are faced with a choice of the lesser of two evils. I hope that the majority of people recognize the difference between supporting candidates who will keep the country limping along, and those who will destroy it completely.

There are other choices, of course, which are even worse. I would urge everyone NOT to give up and decide not to vote at all. Also, voting for a third-party candidate who does not have a chance of winning would be just as bad.

We need to remember, too, that the government is a lot me than just the President. There are thousands of younger, capable people working at all levels who need our support. Many of them are future leaders who are focused on climate change, and our future may depend on keeping them rising in the ranks.

It's disgraceful. I lasted about 30 minutes watching the debate and had to turn it off. I hope that Biden steps aside and another nominee is put forth. At the end of the day, if Trump wins we are destined for a no holds bar match for democracy in this country.
