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.

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've been consistent" says JD.

Consistently lying.

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.

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

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

Pikachu face

Pass the bill!

This is probably the best moment of this debate.

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…

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

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

Stronger locks!!

Good lord, what a moron.

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

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

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?!?

Thank god, they actually muted!

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.

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

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.

Moderator: "How do you stop gun violence?"

Vance: "Stronger windows in schools!"

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

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

Will the fly be there to fact-check?

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

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

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

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.

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.

Vance, that's Congresses job not the vice presidents

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

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?

We're ~25 minutes in, and so far I would say this debate is close, but Walz is edging out Vance. He's not as polished, but he's coming across as more genuine, and he's directly answering.

Excellent answer. Humanizing the issue, giving practical information, and raising project 2025.

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

Vance trying hard to pull off Kamala’s faces from the last debate and only looking constipated.

Call ing out Vance’s disdain for trump, good

here we go. hold onto your buts.
