In Case You Missed The First Presidential Debate
thecommonsenseshow.com

On Monday, September 27th, the first round of presidential debates began. I'm here to tell you what you missed, which honestly wasn't very much.

1. First and foremost you missed each candidate making pouty faces whenever things didn't go their way.


2. You missed this comeback from Trump.

3. And this plastered smile from Hillary.

5. You missed Trump interrupt Hillary. (shocker)

6. You missed a lot of incorrect information from both parties.

(Check several facts at the fat checker links below)
Trump and Clinton first debate fact checks no.

All in all this debate was basically a joke. Neither candidate answered questions thoroughly and instead of trying to explain why they were a better candidate to run America, they more often tried to exploit the other of their flaws. Secretary Clinton was baiting Trump with certain ways of speaking and unfortunately for him, Trump fell for it showing that his temperament isn't exactly presidential. This debate seemed to be more like two teenagers arguing and calling each other names. Whoever wins has a lot of work to get done because America is just becoming more and more divided as this election goes forward. Basically, the future isn't looking too bright for the next four years.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
