At the time this diary goes live, the debate will be in progress. If you don’t know what I’m referring to, you clearly live on the planet Uranus. I’m not even going to try to update this diary up to the wire in anticipation, or try to predict what kind of explosion tonight’s fireworks will produce. I’m also not going to try to compete, with some alternative topic that can’t match (un)reality.
And now, a word from our sponsor:

Tonight’s feature presentation: Debate? what debate?
If you’re reading this at all, you might not even be doing so at the appointed hour, because you will be otherwise occupied. Understandable.
My non-compete contract with Daily Kos requires that I not post anything here to compete with tonight’s debate. And since I’m preparing this in advance, I can’t say anything specific about how the debate is going. I’m not the Drumpf campaign, after all. I can’t just write a press release declaring victory and put it out there hours ahead of time.
Oh, and tomorrow is Thanksgiving day in Canada. Partner and I have spent the early evening hours of this Sunday cooking together, eating, drinking a little. Later we will be huddled up in front of the teevee, just like the rest of you.
In short: I got nuthin’. How you doin’?

From JG in MD:
A wonderful message of hope from DisNoir36 in "Is Donald Trump about to declare war on the Republican Party?" by Barbara Morrill.
From BeninSC:
I really liked this comment from first-time Daily Kos visitor, Rknrobin, on the violations committed against women by people like the Republican nominee for president.
With this first comment on Daily Kos, cdbertel calls Republicans to account for supporting the sex offender their party nominated for president.
And this first time commenter, Thinks4Herself, weighed in on the issue of sexual assault and Trump with this fine comment.
One of my favorite comments of the day came from yet another first time commenter on Daily Kos, HRC4POTUS. That comment made the point I care about the most, that Trump’s statements matter less than his behavior. It is not that he misspoke, it is that he engages in, endorses and BOASTS about behavior that should put ANY sexual predator behind bars. Please rec this one!
What a great series of comments from folks new to Daily Kos!
