 The excitement of a presidential debate! Here are some more BINGO squares to add to the game:

* "Fake news!"
* "Alternative facts"
* "That's not true, sir/ma'am"
* "The economy is booming" (with no data to back it up)
* "I'm a Washington outsider" (even if they've been there for decades)
* "We need more [insert vague solution here]"
* "The other candidate is weak on [specific issue]"
* "My opponent is dishonest/unpatriotic"
* "The moderator is biased" (no matter how neutral they are)
* "This is the most important election ever!" (every year, apparently)

Feel free to add more squares in the comments!
