is there a Discord server where people live-chat the presidential debates?

I tried searching for one but I'm just getting clumps of philosophy majors

Maybe use Matrix or XMPP for that? They're both much better than the dumpster fire discord is.
- are there active communities on either of those?
  
  no idea, but be the change you wish to see in the world. Send me a link to the room and I'll join (:
- What client do you use for matrix? I'm still shopping around.
  
  Element on desktop and Schildichat, a fork of Element, on mobile. I used to use element on mobile too but it was soooooo slow. Also, which homeserver are you going to use? Don't use matrix.org, it's too full and slow. envs.net or tchncs.de are cool. If you want, I can register you an account on my own server, gregtech.eu.
There are probably people on YT who do this live? Discord, not sure, but you could try Twitch during the debate and you might find one?
Why would you want to do this
- Comrade, Hexbear does this on Cy.tube.
Fuck it, I'll make one: #presidential-debates:gregtech.eu
Discord? No idea. Some instances like Hexbear do this, depends on what kind of people you want to talk with.
The subtitles are live right? Should be ez enough to make a bot that dumps that into a channel
- I'm not looking for a transcript, I want to talk to other people during the debate. I assume the YouTube chat will be a shitshow
  
  Ahh, sorry for the misunderstanding!
  
  I think your best bet is to find politics communities on disboard
