Harris and woman talking about daughter killed by illegal, and Harris answer was similar to Hillary Clinton's Benghazi bungle: What difference, at this point, does it make.
Confusocracy:
Drudge picture of Harris sworn in as VP, impression as president
Getting quotes from Harris, not Biden--feels like she's already president

Someone took Biden off his meds for the debate, then now he's back on them again.

We urge you to spend the time needed to become informed about the issues and candidates you will be considering. Some principles compatible with the gospel may be found in various political parties, and members should seek candidates who best embody those principles. Members should also study candidates carefully and vote for those who have demonstrated integrity, compassion, and service to others, regardless of party affiliation. Merely voting a straight ticket or voting based on “tradition” without careful study of candidates and their positions on important issues is a threat to democracy and inconsistent with revealed standards (see Doctrine and Covenants 98:10). Information on candidates is available through the internet, debates, and other sources.
