Kansas City Watches Trump Vs. Biden Debate 2024: Open Thread

Readers checking in with us tonight are the most dedicated denizens of our local discourse.

We're posting this one simply because NOBODY is watching anything else this evening. 

Accordingly . . .

We hope to share any witty comments or observations for the morning and/or simply serve as a place for locals to share a word with fellow d-bags.

Here's the setup and just a bit more info that captured our attention . . .

Hosted by CNN, the debate comes at a crucial time as undecided voters work to decide how to cast their ballots in what's expected to be a close contest in November. It's also an opportunity for Biden and Trump to highlight their competing visions for the United States should they become president.

It's the earliest-ever in a presidential race, taking place before the Republican and Democratic conventions in July and August -- when both Trump and Biden will officially accept their party's nominations.

The showdown is scheduled to go 90 minutes with two commercial breaks. There will be no live studio audience -- a major change from previous debates.
