I'm more interested in the headline about Trump lying during the debate. Not that I doubt it. But more about how the sum total of the response to it is basically "ah well nevertheless".

This is supposed to not only be a democracy, but also THE democracy and all other democracies that are not this democracy are not democracies. Meanwhile a dude just gets on a podium, spews bullshit on national televison debate and gets off scott free. How do western chauvinists live with this.

I assume that it'll probably take at least a few days to work out an exhaustive list, but yeah if you were the new york crimes you'd think you could maybe put your in-progress article on the front page.

CNN had a fact checker after the debate itemize over 30 lies Trump said within the hour. He also said Biden had like 9 lies but never itemized them. I imagine because they were incomprehensible.

They did itemize them, they were mostly misstatements or inaccuracies, but some were bad wrong.
