@emsquared the duck speaks better English and isn't afraid to go without trousers hiding a nappy.

No. It wasn't that coherent.
-
@lionelb I hope it was intentional. Slow day at the Indy.

@spytfyre The one duck I can respect. His frustration is my frustration.

@patterfloof @bobthomson70 truth is always stranger than fiction

@emsquared Daffy for me, if I'm pushed I'd go with Count Duckula.

@emsquared Of course, that is a nickname being applied to #Trump for chickening out of a second #debate with #Harris. Either way, voters think heβs fowl.

@emsquared I wonder if the editor who wrote the headline was trying to lowkey evoke memories of him repeating the "immigrants are eating ducks and kittens" BS.

@guyjantic Surely a headline written and approved with a knowing smile.
-
@MessagingMatters I see what you did there
-
I submit that the editor knew what was what when he approved the headline β¦

@romanalanwrites I can hear said duck impersonation in my mind. Very good.

@spytfyre Good pick. As long as Howard the duck doesn't get a look-in i'm fine with that.
-
@emsquared I feel like if he was going to be involved it should have been on this ABC one since Disney owns ABC
-
@emsquared Tell me more about Donald Duck's second TV debate with Kamala Harris
-
@elset I wish I could. I was feeling gutted that I missed the first one.

@emsquared Thank goodness (and English teachers) for a headline writer who knew not to insert an apostrophe!
