Comedians, politicos, and a former campaign staffer weigh in with their immediate, visceral impressions of the worst presidential debate in modern history. Highlights include renowned political impressionist James Adomian and competent amateur caricaturist Virgil Texas playing out a Bernie/Trump debate to show us the world that could have been, and Trevor Beaulieu of Champagne Sharks podcast, Katie Halper of Rolling Stone’s Useful Idiots podcast, and Brie having what will probably be the only substantive post-debate analysis about Biden, reparations, and the Black vote you’ll hear — despite the Democratic Party’s insistence that they deeply care about “the base.”    The crew hits on all the best (read worst) moments of the debate, from Trump’s attack on Beau Biden, to Biden’s rejection of the Green New Deal, and concludes by scoring the debate using the only metric worth considering: Merrick Garlands.   Listen, subscribe, and don’t forget to rate Bad Faith Podcast five Merrick Garlands on iTunes or wherever you’re listening.   Subscribe to Bad Faith on Patreon to support us and instantly unlock our full premium episode library: http://patreon.com/badfaithpodcast
