23) Both candidates' twitters are tweeting during the debate. I feel like this is.... kind of breaking down the third wall? Like we're all watching them _not_ tweeting live while their twitter publishes. So, like, it's _definitely_ a ghostwriter.

25) My best guess is that Biden's going to whiff on social distancing here -- I suspect that he's going to overestimate support for it. Particularly Trump has the "pro-freedom" line here which is likely to play well.

27) Biden: "You can't fix the economy until you fix the COVID crisis" My guess is that doesn't go over well. Generally I'd guess Biden does better here when he blames it on Trump fucking up easy things (refusing to give out masks) than it being hopeless until after COVID.

28) Trump claims he paid millions of taxes in 2016-2017. Is this income tax vs other taxes? Is he lying? Are the published numbers wrong?

29) "We've done things you've never even thought of" If I were Biden I'd respond with something like: "Yeah, like constant lying and running a country without a plan. I haven't ever thought to do those."

30) "You're the worst president America has ever had, come on" Wonder how that went over, probably well?

31) Why bother pandering to the state the debate is in? It appeals to 100 people in the audience. To the millions watching it's just startling us to remember they're physically somewhere instead of just being natively digital or something.
