politics

one thing I love is walz matter of fact way with things. some people villify regulation but you want to be able to have time to get out of your house if theres a fire. I love hearing a debate with quotes like that. point out the dumb.

JD got upset when Tim said Minnesota has the lowest teen pregnancy rate, it's kind of his thing

Sorry... what? Houses are expensive because of diesel fuel prices?

I love the way vance/trump likes to take credit for the economy they inherited and then blew up just as they left. if, satan forbid, trump got in again any successes will be on the coattails of biden. my devil it still drives me nuts what he did with interest rates which is a dead simple thing for a president to do, which is not to pressure or interfere with the fed.

Pikachu face

Pass the bill!

This is probably the best moment of this debate.

Oh yeah, tariffs. Please, increase inflation for all of us who can’t even afford shit now.

And your orange god sources his shitty Wish watches from China, what are you talking about?!?

Vance won't answer the question about the 2020 election fraud by trump

Random thought: I wonder if that 23-and-me data gets bought up by the healthcare industry when they go under. 🤔 I wonder what they will do with it when they can know if predisposed to heart disease…

Moderator: "How long should companies pay for family medical leave?"

Walz: "That's negotiable."

Vance: "What if their church wants to pay them for childcare?!"

I was unaware that the vice president directly controls food prices.

Stronger locks!!

Good lord, what a moron.

"I've been consistent" says JD.

Consistently lying.

oh he is ducking the will he certify results as a vice president. ok so I got two good laughs.

This has been such a tame debate that the argument my neighbors are having about one of them masturbating to much distracted me.

Vance: "Build the wall."

Yeah, no... I don't think you understand how big the southern border is or what terrain it's on, pal.

Thank god, they actually muted!

Well, what about Facebook though? What about censorship? What about that baby hippo on Tiktok? What about Flintstones vitamins?

did vance just say he thought the american people don't know much about him or waltz???

Vance, that's Congresses job not the vice presidents

Solar panels from China make “dirty” clean energy, while American fossil fuels create “clean” dirty energy.

PBS pundits are complaining that they were too nice to each other and agreed with each other too much. Sigh.

How will we handle child care at a federal level?

Vance: Long stream of bullshit, followed by “give federal money to churches.” Tax credit? Paid leave? Fuck you.

We'll have tremendous healthcare, and I'll make China pay for it!

Senator Vance, are you a traitor?

Forget everything I said before. I have a new answer now. I will go back to my old answer the second I step off of this stage. You aren’t allowed to fact check me.

walz is owning this one. he is doing great and vance goes between evading and just lying. Hes better and more consistent with his lies which makes this no where near as entertaining as the presidential debate.

Okay, guys. I get it. You're both way into Jesus.

I can’t watch anymore. Vance is riling me up too much and I’m not seeing enough pushback.

Cheers all, it’s been … interesting.

Will the fly be there to fact-check?

Moderator: "How do you stop gun violence?"

Vance: "Stronger windows in schools!"

The borders aren’t open, you numpty twat. Just keep lying.

First question is about the Middle East and Iran's attack on Israel. Walz is talking about how we need steady leadership for dealing with that, contrasting it with Trump.

Started a little stumbly, but already seems to be finding his footing.

Walz nailed the immigration question. Vance is making up lies and using buzzwords.

I really hope Walz hammers Vance on women’s rights and LGBTQ issues. Just make that the focus of the whole thing, because those are the issues that will win in the margins of historically nonvoters. I really hope this campaign can finally understand why many voters are disenfranchised, and start finally enfranchising them.

Vast swathes of voters are unaffiliated because nobody cares about them. I know the dem candidates are capable of caring, but they need to show it.

Here we go. Yes, women’s rights.

They will have the study in 2 weeks. Also, was it done by the evil experts we can’t trust?

“Shortage” more like venture capitalism and artificially limiting supply.

Does Congress need to pass bills to help border patrol?

Vance: The president has to solve it by helping law enforcement.

JD, isn't that what the bill passing through Congress would do?
